Increíble restaurante con gran dueño

Comí aquí hace unas semanas con mi novio y nos encantó. La comida era increíble y me encantó el ambiente, en particular los asientos en el piso. El dueño fue increíblemente amable y servicial, incluso nos llamó un taxi porque teníamos que tomar un autobús. 10/10 :)

EL MEJOR RESTAURANTE DE MONTEVIDEO

Un lugar completamente vegetariano, con opciones variadas que abarcan desde comida tradicional Uruguaya (chivito, bife con papas, hamburguesa) a comidas más internacionales como los doblados (dosas), los pokes y demás.
El ambiente es hermoso, único. La iluminación es cálida y tenue, pero no oscura; muy agradable y acogedora. A lo largo de todo el local se pueden apreciar murales y grafitis representando deidades y conceptos budistas e hindúes, hechos con suma maestría y que le dan un aspecto inspirador, emotivo. Lo más atractivo son las mesas bajas, rodeadas de almohadones para que te sientes en el suelo. La sala entera está alfombrada, llena de paraguas chinos tradicionales, lámparas y cuadros. En los días de frío, puedes solicitar una mantita para acurrucarte y estar calentito (además, cuentan con calefacción).
El staff es súper amable y servicial, nunca jamás tuve nada que reprocharles. Siempre dispuestos a explicar, recomendar, acomodar e incluso conversar. Personas humanas, cuidadosas, amables, que te hacen sentir bien.
La comida es de primerísima calidad, los sabores se mezclan unos con otros como tejiendo un hermoso telar, como notas en una canción. Las ensladas son frescas, variadas, satisfactorias. Las porciones son abundantes, no te quedarás jamás con hambre. Los postres merecen un reconocimiento aparte, pues son intensos, sabrosos y no demasiado dulces.
Por más indulgente y sabrosa que resulte, la comida no cae pesada, pues es equilibrada y saludable. Es un mimo al alma y al cuerpo.
Lo considero un imperdible, todos tendrían que visitarlo. De mis favoritos de la ciudad, y el país.
Recomendación: Poke Aloha y postre de Ganache de Chocolate con Frutos Rojos.

Hermoso ambiente y atención

La atención es excelente, la comida muy rica. Tienen un montón de opciones veganas en la carta.
La última vez que fui comí unos sorrentinos de hongos con una salsa verde muy buenos!
Lo que si, es un lugar un poco caro, pero para una vez cada tanto está bueno

Lugar aconchegante e comida farta

Restaurante vegano/vegetariano com cardápio variado e farto. O valor dos pratos é um pouco acima, mas, o que não está em desacordo com o aconchego do local e qualidade da comida!

Hermoso lugar

Tienen una extensa carta con gran variedad de platos. Las porciones son generosas y muy ricas.
El lugar es muy acogedor, particularmente el espacio “chill” donde la luz es más tenue y tienen mesas bajas para comer sentados en el piso.
El personal es muy atento y amable!

Pros: Variedad de opciones, Atención del personal, Espacio chill

Comida deli y lugar precioso

La onda del restaurante lo es todo. Tienen muchas opciones veganas. Recomiendo mucho lo que probé: gnocchi rellenos de queso con salsa rosa y de postre el lemon pie

Amazing food and restaurant

One of the best places to eat vegan food in Montevideo. Even though the restaurant is vegetarian, they have improved over the years and offer a wide variety of vegan options in the menu. Prices are a little bit expensive but totally worth it, the food is amazing.

Amazing experience!

I love this place, it is one of the best and also first vegetarian restaurants and since then has improved and incorporated many vegan options. They've a fusion cuisine with many items to choose from, including plant-based adaptations of local-dishes. Smoothies are super nice and nutritive. Vegan items and ingredients are clearly labeled. The chill area is super nice as an alternative experience where you can take your shoes off and sit on cushions on top of a beautiful carpet.

I love their pizza and, their vegan ravioli (the fried ones are great) and vegan gnocci. The chivito is also very nice.

Fantastic food!

I didn't want to leave Montevideo without trying a chivito... thanks to Namaste I could have a vegan one. The restaurant is very beautiful and the lady who waited on me was really nice.
The chivito was incredible (I'm sad I have to go back home and won't have the time to have another one) and the fries that came with it were tasty as well.

Pros: Nice ambience , Great food, Vegan uruguayan dishes available

Average and expensive food

The service was good, but the food was average and by far the most expensive meal we've had in South America... It was the first meal we ate in Uruguay, so we thought the prices might be standard, but we've since found much cheaper (and better) vegetarian and vegan food in Montevideo.

Pros: Friendly staff , Vegetarian and vegan options

Cons: Really expensive , Average food

Mistakes and mistakes

I ordered a few times the Vegan chivito, but around 4 or 5 times they send me vegetarian chivito, and once i had to wait until the other day to have a solution. Never again

Pros: Delicious food

Cons: Not paying attention, Many mistakes

The staff was friendly and the ambiente is nice.

Lovely Decor, Decent Food

The decor of this restaurant is reminiscent of that which you find often in Asia. Very relaxing and calm.

My meal started with fresh bread with a delicious dip. I ordered some ravioli stuffed with pumpkin. I liked the flavors, but felt the dish was way too heavy and dense for my taste. I think I ordered wrong, as the food other had looked great

Excellent

This is probably one of the best restaurants where I have been in my l'asta trips abroad. The owners and the people working there are nice, attentive and smiling, the atmosphere is relaxing, and the food is great - simple, fresh, well cooked.
Basically vegetarian with good Vegan options such as the sorrentinos ( just adored them).
Princes are moderate.
Absolutely recommended.

Pros: Fresh, well cooked food, Nice people, Laid back atmosphere

REALLY GREAT

The owners I assume? Or people who worked there were so friendly, welcoming, and kind! They offered us chivitos and made sure mine was vegan. The food was great, and the atmosphere was so serene and just a beautiful space. What a great meal. The vegan chivito was delicious especially with the sauces!

Pros: atmosphere, food quality and taste, the people who work there/owners

Cons: lack of option of salad on the side?
