Best pizza ever!!!!!! - Jax (6 yrs old) - Edit
Totally loved this place! I wish we had something like this back home. All the ingredients are listed and there are lots of options for the buffet. We also ordered a Hawaiian pizza for the kids and they both agreed it was the best they’ve ever had. We also tried the spicy peanut Thai and it was amazing. I have nothing bad to say about this place.

Cons: Sorry, I don’t have any.

Amazing! - Edit
The buffet is big and offers a lot of variety. The price is calculated by the weight so you can tell them how much tou want. Everything looked delicious and everything we git actually was delicious as well, even if the picture is not the best.
Read moreThe vegan cheese they use for the pizza and the gratin tastes like "normal" chees and the sugar free desserts are amazing! I am pretty sure I will go there again.
Additionally, the location is awesome. You can either sit inside or outside at the market square where the ambiente is really nice when it is sunny.

A staple in the Victoria vegan community - Edit
Green cuisine has been around a long time and it’s easy to understand why. There are lots of healthy options and also some less healthy ones, but everything is delicious and made with love.

I feel like I’m going to burst - Edit
After a long, tedious flight from Toronto and a 10k run I was hungry for a great plant based meal. Thanks to Happy Cow I found this restaurant near my hotel and was pleasantly surprised. It’s located in the back in a courtyard so don’t be confused if you can’t find it with your GPS.
Read moreThe restaurant is a buffet style restaurant that charges by weight. The food looked so delicious that I ordered two large takeout containers- one for cold and the other for hot food.
The salad, sauerkraut, cashew aioli, tempeh and tofu cold dishes were great; however the lasagna and falafels were amazing. So delicious I ate well past the point of satiety and gorged on a scoop of Rocky Road vegan ice cream.
Total pig- but a happy pig.
Pros: Great variety , Super lots of desserts!
Cons: Need more beverages than kombuchas (yuck!)
KellenH
Thank you so much for your review! We really appreciate it. We hope you will be happy to hear that we just added a new Cold Beverage Menu, so maybe you'll give it a try when you're next in town. Thanks so much for your detailed feedback! - Green Cuisine Team

We will be back - Edit
Good selection of great tasting food with plenty of seating in different rooms. We had a share plate of curried tofu chunks, tempeh in brown gravy, roasted veggies and rice with a slice of pesto pizza. Buffet foods are all pay by weight.
Read moreDesserts we tried were all fantastic - sticky ginger cake, white and dark chocolate mousse cake and the berry cheesecake (which was one of the most authentic tasting cheesecakes I’ve tried). Also offers cookies, balls, other slices and ice cream.
Water station available and fridge by the door with to-go items such as tempeh, tofu and krauts.
Pros: Quality food, Friendly service , Location and plenty of seating
Cons: Restaurant a bit run down

You can't go wrong - Edit
A fully vegan buffet with amazing selection , including ice cream, desserts, kombucha on tap, pizza, and really all of the flavors you could ever want. I have to pinch myself whenever we eat here, as it is so dreamy that everything is vegan. This place has a lived in feeling, as it has served the vegetarian/vegan community in Victoria for many years, they even sell their own branded tempeh, mochi and Tofu. Given that this establishment has been around for so long, the decor and interior design is dated, quirky, and a little spartan, but copious amounts of yummy food makes up for it.

BEST in the West - Edit
Green Cuisine is the upmost best spot for food. They have a full Vegan buffet that covers everything. Soups, salads, rotating amazing entrees like spinach lasagna, spanakopita, mousakka… they don’t mess around. They always have some variation of their amazing tofu and tempeh (which they even make themselves) and other staples such as rice, beans, and delicious roasted potatoes. Onto the sweets and snacks, there’s always several different cookies and cakes to choose from, all sorts of bars, muffins, energy balls etc. They also have homemade ice cream, and homemade kombucha. They’ve even started making their own pizza and noodle boxes which are both just some of the best we’ve ever had. So there’s really something for everyone here and everything just tastes so darn delicious. Check them out for sureeee! And you can even stock up on tempeh and tofu while you’re there!

My favourite - Edit
Green Cuisine was the first all vegan restaurant I found after going vegan many years ago. I'm not from Victoria, but it is a staple every time I visit Vancouver Island. I get most of my meals there, though I do sample the other vegan options in town. I like the variety, and the healthy food. The Peanut Butter cookies are also a must have for me. Green Cuisine is the type of place that feels like it builds a community for vegans. It's the best.

Love it! - Edit
We visited in end of July and were happy that it was opened for dine-in. Buffet style, but i think due to COVID, it was the staff who would put what you see and chosen on the plate. There were salads, hot dishes, desserts, pizza...You will get your plate when you pay (by weight) at the cashier. If i remember correctly, they also have free water stand. It was kind of like Vego in Montreal.

Tried buffet service so got a chance to taste most of the items they were serving.
Read moreGood effort by the staff but i dont think i will visit the place again.
Pros: Tempeh or scrambled tofu, falafel, quinoa salad, bhindi was good (except the potatoes in it)
Cons: cold food, all other salads were tasteless, potatoes smelled weird
KellenH
Hi there, sorry that you did not enjoy your visit, the potatoes are very popular with most of our customers! We have a variety of delicious dressings available every day for the salad bar to add some flavour to the greens and veg. If you decide to give us a try again one day, you can view the daily menu at www.greencuisine.com to see if any of the dishes interest you since we change our buffet spread regularly.
