What a fail of a place for the vegetarian yelpers.
after 3 weeks in argentina surviving off of bread and cheese or pasta/pizza and the occasional lentil salad, I decided to search yelp for a vegetarian restaurant close to Palermo. This place was highly rated and some reviews promised a veggie place so i set out happily.
I walk in and its a make to order salad place. In the "pick your protein" section there is chicken, tuna, beef and bacon. Yeah.. panceta means bacon. Awesome. When I asked if he had a veggie burger or tofu the man behind the counter looked puzzled and annoyed. When I asked if i could replace it with nuts he said no, i could pick from the veggies. Which made no sense.
I paid 53 pesos for rhe price of a salad with meat but without any actual meat. Awesome.
There is ONE veggie thing on the menu which is surprise surprise bread with cheese sandwich. Whoo!
I dont give this place 1 star because the service was fast, and the salad was well presented. Im sure if Id gotten meat I would have felt full.
**veggie yelper friends, if looking for a good place with actual vegetarian food: i found one two blocks away at the food court in the Alto Palermo mall. Not all hope is lost! Stay strong! :) read more
