“ Great little hidden gem. Live music. Excellent atmosphere. Friendly service. Little hippie market at the entrance too. ”
“ I ordered the jugo verde, freshly made, delicious. The server recommended the pasta al pesto and I was delighted by the flavor subtle pesto, pasta cooked beautifully, and fresh vegetables sauteed. The cafe de olla is the best I've tasted in Guanajuato. Goes great with a slice of pastel de zanahoria. I highly recommend to eat here ”
“ We came in right before closing and they still sat us... Wow amazing food, some of the best eggplant I've had ever, and it's one of my favorite vegetables. The menu has all types of food, and many vegan options which was great for me. Try the cauliflower ceviche and eggplant tacos. The atmosphere is natural and cozy, they also have a stage for live music. It's a pretty large space with indoor and outdoor seating as well as a cafe at the entrance. Definitely recommend and will return. I rarely rate something this high, 5 out of 5 in every category. Maybe a couple of the food items were only a solid 4, but then I give it a 4.7 and round up to 5. It's not the cheapest place around, but it's well worth every peso!! ”
“ Awesome place to eat a well served Vegan Meal as well as Vegetarian. Portions are good. Service is good. They do take time to cook the meal as most of the menu is made to order. Have patience and does pay off.Variety of cocktail drinks and vegan friendly drinks and beers. Decently priced for a budget. Not overpriced. Place is under remodel looking to expand. Great concept of only allowing sustainable elements to their kitchen and workspace as in chairs and tables. ”
