Nordvegan was the first place I checked out when visiting Oslo. I was glad it was so close to central Oslo, where my partner and I were staying. What I later realized to be common at restaurants in Oslo was a buffet-like display of food, but the dishes are singular menu items vs. being able to add a little of everything to your plate. I opted for a salad-bowl type dish, full of fresh delicious veggies (which was much needed after a long flight.) However, they also had plenty of heartier dishes if you needed something with a bit more weigh to it. All food is ordered at the counter and the employees were very helpful guiding my partner and I (and easily accommodated our english only language skills.) The space on the inside was a bit on the small side, but they had a lovely patio in the back that's perfect in the beautiful summer season of Oslo. Definitely a necessary stop for vegans traveling through. read more

Nordvegan - Rainbow bowl and lasagna - Vegan Near Me - Oslo, 03

This is probably more 4.5 stars: I wish the Nord Vegan was a bit more Nord, haha, and I was a bit surprised this wasn't table service after we had made a reservation; I also wish the alkoholfrei beer was better. Small complaints though! Tasty and fresh vegan food (my wife is vegetarian, I'm an omnivore FWIW), especially the deserts and sushi. Friendly and fast service, those two women were really hustling! Lovely garden out back. read more

Small vegan eatery with order at the counter and self seat service by Michelin Star chef Food ** So we had heard great things about this restaurant. Sadly we did not have a good experience. We got the Shepard's Pie and the Rainbow salad. The Shepard's pie was basically all potato - had no real flavor, it was supposed to have other filling but it was so minimal and lacking in effort, it was just very disappointing. It's supposed to come with quinoa and salad - our server gave us very little quinoa; we saw other patrons ordering similar dishes with much more. The Rainbow salad was extremely boring and they were out of the soy chicken which was a main appeal and instead of offering perhaps their baked tofu or some other specialty we were only offered an extra side. Water is free. Maybe we got bad dishes but this was a big no from us and disappointing for the money. Atmosphere**** Indoor and outdoor seating was nice. Seat yourself and restroom available. Service *** Counter service was fast but as stated previously, the portions were inconsistent between the servers. Price $$ read more

I had a nice Buddha bowl with veggies and I believe tofu. It was seasoned well and delicious. It was a little expensive for what it was (I believe it came out to $30 with a drink), but it was a clean fresh meal. The server was very nice and helpful and the restaurant was quaint and clean. read more

Great vegan food at reasonable prices (for Oslo). Healthy and filling. Portions were more than enough. I felt as though some things may have been under-seasoned, but it didn't bother me very much. The Arancini are a must. read more

Nordvegan - moussaka - Vegan Near Me - Oslo, 03

Absolutely fantastic! Whilst it's been years since I was a vegan I still like to eat vegan quite regularly. We found Nordvegan had great reviews in Oslo and had to give it a go. We each got the lasagne with side salad. Whilst it was quite expensive (but what isn't in Norway?) it was an extremely big meal! The portion size was well beyond what we expected and we probably should have shared one meal given we didn't finish it. Onto the taste - the lasagne was amazing! It was so creamy and actually one of the best vegan lasagnes (if not all lasagnes) I've ever had! It was packed with veggies, what tasted like some vegan mince and heaps of vegan cheese. The tomato sauce was almost sweet! The side salads were fantastic also. A couscous salad and a green salad which were very welcome given the lack of fresh veggies we'd had since coming from Iceland! Thanks Nordvegan for making vegan food this great! read more

Friendly service. Definite, varying tastes. Nice ambience. Cheesecake was good. Enjoyed the apple pie as well.

Super cosy place with a garden in the back. I went there with a friend after a workout - perfect post workout food. There are lots of different options and the plates are pretty big and filling. I went for the chilli with a salad - it tasted delicious. It is a bit expensive (175 kr for a big plate) but at least you get lots of great and healthy vegan food. read more

Nordvegan - Vegan Near Me - Oslo, 03

Excellent vegan place.....although I would prefer it to be vegetarian instead of vegan. The first day I had the Thai curry with brown rice. Simply excellent!! I went back the following day to get the lasagna or moussaka. Was a little apprehensive of the cheese so they let me sample a tiny amount of the lasagna. I wasn't a fan of the vegan cheese so got the Buddha bowl. Very good. The sauces that go with the Buddha bowl are a little sweet and sour. Fortunately read more

First time I was here was with my vegan friend from Paris, the place is nice and cosy and food are delicious

Great choices and the food was full of flavor. Hard to find good vegetarian food in Norway besides pizza or pasta.

Excellent lunch option in Oslo! Stopped in on our first day in Oslo after being recommended by the concierge. All three of us chose to do the "budda bowl option" where you received a small portion of either rice or noodles with curry or sweet and sour sauce and a salad served on top. The salad was made up of a base where you could add toppings such as beets, broccoli, pickled ginger, cashews etc. We came back the next day for lunch as well and had coffees from the bar. They have several option for vegan milk including oatly oat milk and almond. I also highly recommend their home made kombucha as well. The vibe was cool, definitely a must stop in Oslo for vegans. read more

Nordvegan is the best dining experience thus far in my Northern Europe trip. Tried thai curry, stuffed bell peppers, moussaka, and hummus. All of them were delicious. Staff was incredibly nice and helpful. Restaurant ambiance is modern casual. If you are a vegan, vegetarian traveler going through Oslo, its a must visit. read more

Nordvegan - Buddhabowl and mango kombucha - Delicious! - Vegan Near Me - Oslo, 03

Amazing vegan food! Came here 3 days in a row and they had something different each day! Great juice and salads!

Amazing Buddha bowl. First time I had really small portion but next it was much bigger. The rice noodles were a bit dry therefore very hard to chew as I ordered them for my daughter who is 5. The lasagne was amazing too. We tried summer rolls and they were great. Ordered the juice and thought it was expensive for the size ( just a small bottle) but the taste was good so did t mind. Would definitely recommend ! read more

I love this place! Thank you for a wonderul meal and some good espresso! Really cozy and beautiful interior. Very nice and helpful personal. Nice music. I highly recomend everyone to come here, I know I will, again. They also plant a tree for every meal. Be kind to yourself, others and the world. read more

We didn't want to have another disappointing dinner along the waterfront tonight, so we ventured a block off Karl Johans Gate and surprisingly found Nordvegan. We had the enchilada and the lasagna along with ample sides, as well as the creme brulee dessert. All were scrumptious, and we left the restaurant very satisfied food- and budget-wise. Sorry to say we couldn't come back tomorrow to see what new entrees they'd be serving. Highly recommended. read more
