Excellent vegan food - Edit
Me and a friend had a Warm Kayu Sandwich and Garden Burger. Both were excellent. Nice environment, friendly service. With drinks (smoothie and tea), the total was 100 kn each, which is way fine for a really nice meal.

Fabulous food - Edit
We ate here twice during our short stay in Zagreb. The ‘chicken’ cordon bleu was amazing. Their portions are generous and the prices great (by American standards). Friendly staff. Pleasant courtyard. Highly recommend.

Beautiful place - Edit
Had the green pasta. The basil sauce, with tagliatelle and smoked tofu was a powerful taste combination. Had a cake which I did not like, but I did not know it was a cheese cake

Extraordinary food! - Edit
We had the seitan cordon bleu which was absolutely delicious! As a dessert we got the Hungarian Cake with 2 scoops of ice cream which was amazing too. If we would've stayed in Zagreb longer we would've definitely returned to try more things on the menu!

Very good food, big portions - Edit
We loved everything we ordered (breaded Tofu, Miso-Soup, bread with dips, rice-dish with greens and tofu). The desert (brownie with vanilla icecream and nuts) was one of the best we ever had!!!
Read moreWe had 3 drinks, 4 dishes and desert and paid under 60 Euro. The portions were big and filling.
Stylish restaurant with great atmosphere :)

Nice variety of original organic dishes - Edit
I have been here a couple of times, and both times the food was great. The menu offers a nice variety of plant-based dishes. The ones I tried were very tasty and filling, and they were also quite original. I would have liked to pass by more times to try out some more dishes.
Read moreThe service was efficient and friendly. Plus the indoor courtyard gives the place a nice, cosy atmosphere.
The prices are fair, especially given the fact that the food is organically grown, which is a great plus in my opinion.
Can only recommend!
Pros: Nice variety of dishes, Organically grown vegetables , Friendly service

One of the best - Edit
Amazing restaurant with vegetables sourced directly from own organic farm (first of its type in Croatia). A good mixed selection of solid, tasty homemade dishes and a bit more experimental. Friendly staff and nice atmosphere, though the music was a little too loud.

Amazing - highly recommend - Edit
Went for dinner with a group of friends and we all loved it. The service was great, all staff members were super friendly and helpful. I had the miso soup and the breaded tofu and both were delicious. I struggled to finish the breaded tofu, the portion size was really good. We also had a couple of the appetizers. The only negative was that I had no space for dessert 🙃

Vegan farm food. Perfection! - Edit
We went there knowing this would be a good experience but it totally exceeded our expectations!
Read moreThe place is cozy in a modern way.
The staff is friendly and pleasant to deal with.
And the food, gosh the food is just AMAZING!
The tofu, which is made by them, was just something I can't truly describe, and we tasted it for a stroke of luck because the kitchen made it accidentally and since it was there they offered it to us for free!
And the prices are more than fair for such great food, lower than the standards we're used to.
Pros: The food, The staff, The prices

No seasoning and flavor - Edit
Unfortunately, I was quite disappointed with the overall experience. The food lacked any seasoning and flavor. Even the salad came without any dressing, so I tried to improvise by using what I thought was vinegar, but turned out to be soy sauce. The only thing beside Oil and the soy sauce on the table was sesame seeds.
Read moreEven the three slices of sweet potato were completely bland and lacked seasoning. Regrettably, I did not enjoy the meal at all.
On a positive note, I appreciate the concept behind the restaurant, with a focus on using locally sourced and self-grown ingredients. The ambiance of the place was also quite pleasant and visually appealing. However, I found the prices to be too high considering the portion sizes and when compared to other restaurants in the city.
My boyfriend ordered a sandwich, which was comparatively better than my meal. It consisted of bread with a thick slice of tofu, along with a few raw carrots and cucumbers. While tofu is always delicious, the rest of the sandwich was dry and lacked any sauce. The small portion of fries he had was mushy and also devoid of taste. The same can be said for the salad.
Given the unsatisfactory experience with the food and the relatively high prices, we have decided not to return to this restaurant in the future.
Pros: Ambience , Focus on using locally sourced and self-grown ingr, All vegan
Cons: No taste of flavour , Prices are too high, Small portions
