Really good, but will burn a hole in your wallet - Edit
I was here a year ago, and had some really great pasta dish - possibly the best I've had in Rome. This time around, I had the vegan brunch. The staff were really accommodating - I can't drink coffee, which comes with the brunch, but they were happy to swap it out for tea when I asked, at no extra charge.
Read moreThe only downside is the cost. Brunch, while filling, was 21€, plus there's a 2€ cover charge. I don't think it's feasible to get away without spending at least 20-30€ per person here. I guess that's to be expected given how close it is to all the tourist traps, but still, ouch.

Excellent experience - Edit
Can definitely recommend this place.
Read moreBeautiful venue.
Service was generally good.
Some servers were friendlier and more efficient than others.
Food was good, very good and excellent.
Tiramisu was delicious.
Best tiramisu I ate in Italy so far. They set the bar high.
We visited Rome for a few days and we went there for 2 dinners and one lunch.
I guess this sums it up.
The reason I haven’t rate it with 5 is that the delicious truffle spaghetti were a bit more than al dente 😂 and not all servers were as good/ had the necessary charisma for this job.
Other than that I definitely recommend this place and I hope when I return to Rome in about 2 weeks to be able to travel to this place again to try other things on the menu. The pasta, pinsa, tiramisu, white wine and red wine were very good.

Welcome Surprise in Rome - Edit
Had a very delicious eggplant lasagne, followed by the Oreo Tiramisu. Nice glass of red wine to accompany the lunch. I would definitely highly recommend this place to anyone, vegan or not. Not too pricey considering its location.

We shared pasta and a pizza, and had THREE desserts (our weakness), the tiramisu, chocolate brownie and the pannacotta.

Wonderful vegan Roman gem - Edit
After a tiring day exploring the city in the rain, Buddy exceeded all my expectations and was a highlight of the day.
Read moreI had the porcini and sausage pasta - it was unbelievably good. Buttery, parsley, mushroom perfection.
My partner's lasagna was incredible - layers of absolute joy. I loved the decor and friendly vibe. The cafe-sounding name doesn't do it justice ,as the food is high restaurant quality. Well done 👏
Pros: Everything was outstanding.

Variantenreich und lecker - Edit
Ich (vegan) war mit Freundinnen dort (alle nicht vegan) und wir waren alle begeistert. Der Käseersatz auf den Pinsas hat sowohl für mich als auch für die nicht-Veganerinnen perfekt authentisch und aromatisch geschmeckt und die Nudeln waren auch sehr lecker. Die Preise sind für die Portionen (nicht zu klein, genau richtig) angemessen. Das Personal ist freundlich und das Essen wird schnell gebracht. Alles in allem würde ich auf jeden Fall nochmal hingehen, große Empfehlung!😄

Decent vegan food in Rome - Edit
The food was good, just not amazing. The truffle pasta was nice, but wish it was more creamy, and the pizza was pretty good. The staff was very nice and I like that they had a chili oil and red pepper flakes.

They have a huge menu with delicious vegan food, unfortunately lots of the dishes contain peanuts and other nuts. Staff was friendly and took care to find a table when it was full. We went 2 times during our stay in Rome.

Lots of choices - Edit
We got the cacio e pepe pasta, the sausage and mushroom pasta and a chocolate sweet pizza
Read moreBoth pastas were good, we really liked the mock sausage.
The sweet pizza was REALLY good
I probably wouldn't get the cacio e pepe again as I found it a bit heavy and had a texture im not used to. The other pasta was a touch watery, but overall they were still good
They have a really big menu with lots of choice

Good options - Edit
We stopped by Buddy whilst walking to the Vatican. I had maple syrup pancakes and my partner had a cooked vegan breakfast. Both were really tasty and fresh. Staff were really nice and welcoming, the whole place just had a great vibe. The vegan cooked breakfast was a massive portion, where I felt my pancakes were a little small (maybe I’m just greedy 😋)
