We visited while on Sukhin's City Vegan Tour, so only tasted a sample dish. It was delicious and very original! The kimchee and kambucha are made by the owners and all the food is fresh and clearly prepared with a lot of love. Amazing flavours and a rare combination of Korean and Italian vegan cuisine! A delightful atmosphere, and owner Maureo was warm and attentive, explaining dishes to us. He and his wife offer free classes on Kimchee preparation. Definitely will be back! read more

Vegan No -- tasty food but horrendously overpriced for the measly portions you get, and a deceptive 10% service charge they tack on to the bill without clear warning. I had to stop somewhere else later to actually get full. I definitely do not recommend this place for value. We stopped in for dinner one evening. The place is tiny, with no bathroom. The woman who runs the place is very friendly, but that doesn't save the place from the disappointing experience. Our table was presented with 4 different types of kimchi to whet our palates and to decide what type of kimchi we wanted for our mains. Really nice way to start. That was cool. My wife & I each ordered an inari (£4.5) to start, which consists of a sweetened tofu skin pocket with rice and kimchi. It was tasty, but £4.5 for a piece of inari is an insulting ripoff. Not worth it whatsoever. For my wife's main, she got the toppognocchi (£13.50), a gnocchi dish marinated in a spicy gochujang sauce. She enjoyed it but the portion was very small and there were no veggies whatsoever in her dish. I got the kimchi udon (£13.50), which took a lot longer than my wife's or friend's dish to come out -- they were nearly done when my food came out. My udon was an insultingly small portion. The broth was sour and tangy, with small pieces of cabbage and a pathetically small portion of udon noodles. Tasty enough, but I was nowhere near satisfied. For the price we paid, the value for food was terrible. What's worse, when our bill came, we were charged a 10% service fee without warning. Overall, friendly service and tasty enough food, but horrible value for money and a dishonestly service charge means I really do NOT recommend giving your business to this place. A total ripoff and not worth supporting. Find another vegan place in this very vegan-friendly area. read more

See all

The food was incredible. I've never had kimchi quite like it! They bring you a little sample plate to start so you can try the different kimchis, before deciding which you want on your meal. That being said, we got the Kimchi Bibimbap, which comes with all four and it was incredible. We also got Inari, kimchi Tempeh, mushroom gnocchi, and La Piramide. Every single item was amazing. Only here for a week and already planning to go back before we leave. read more

Vegan Yes serves delicious Korean/Italian influenced vegan fare for lunch and dinner. I'm vegetarian, not vegan, so don't eat straight vegan much other than nut cheese. That said, good food is good food, regardless of its dairy content. We found Vegan Yes on Yelp while looking for a place to make dinner reservations. The shop is really tiny, so reservations are pointless. They have two tables that altogether seat three, and a shallow counter that might seat another three, so the best plan is to go during off-peak times, during mid-afternoon or late night. I rolled in for a late dinner and had the kimchi lasagna and an included veggie side. The filling was healthy load of pickled cabbage, carrots, and tomato sauce between a couple of lasagna sheets and topped with vegan parmesan. It was delicious but, holy cow, it was spicy! I've never actually had anything like it before - the Korean/Italian mash up was unique. I accompanied it with some excellent garlic bread and a glass of decent red (organic red, white, and regular beer is offered, as well as soda). I was only in town for a short trip, but on my last full day, I wanted to try something else on the menu, so had the kimchi bimbimbap, which included 4 other vegetables on rice along with the cabbage (the owner recommended parmesan, which she added gratis). The bimbimbap was delicious. I had the house made mochi, which is a sticky rice ball filled with sweet bean paste. Their twist, which was also a first for me, is that it was then dipped in chocolate. Awesome. The owners are enthusiastic and seemed lovely. They gave enthusiastic suggestions on what to try. Free cooking classes (I think monthly) are offered, which is great if you're a local or have a visit planned. What a great way to advocate vegan cuisine, with excellent food and free cooking classes! The owner said that the best way to get in a class was to follow them on instagram where they announce the upcoming schedule. I'm sorry that my vacation was too short for me to go back a third time. Highly recommended. read more

One of theee best meals Ive had in London!! Just delicious!! I ordered only on the vegan menu the vegan japche, veggie tempura, kimchi vegan and the vegan bimbop. All of the sauces and the staff were so helpful, the food was so good and fresh. I could totally sit and eat alone without speaking to anyone and be happy! I ate everything so fast I have no pics read more

I've never thought of pairing Italian with Korean, but it was good! I got all four type of kimchi offered and they were all tasty! I wasn't brave enough to try the mushroom gnocchi with Korean ingredients; maybe next time. The place was very small with only a few tables so probably not great for more than a few people at once. read more

I had the kimchi burger last week and it was really, really good. Not dry at all and super flavorful. I loved the sauce! Everyone else's food looked super delicious and I will most definitely come back to try a few other things. A lot here seems to be for sharing, so a good place to bring friends. It's super tiny but that also makes it kind of cosy. Also, the people working here are super friendly. I wish I had brought cash as this place is cash only, but there are free cash machines close by so it wasn't too big of an issue. read more

A perfect marriage of Italian and Korean vegan dining options! The bibimbop was delicious and paired wonderfully with a nice Sicilian wine. The whole experience just made me happy. Knowing that it's all cruelty free? Added bonus! read more

Stumbled upon this place and decided to go in because the concept sounded so out there (Italian-Korean-vegan??) and BOY am I glad I did! Every single dish we had was delicious and innovative. Almost everything seemed to be made fresh, from scratch, in-house, from the gnocchi to the "nutella." The chef/co-owner Mauro is the most welcoming, exuberant Italian guy, and he clearly loves what he does. We ordered the "Topognocchi," a mix of gnocchi and topokki (Korean rice noodle/cake that are chopped into the shape of gnocchi). This dish provided a nice variance of texture, the pillowy gnocchi and the more toothsome, chewy topokki. But it was Mauro's simmered-for-six-hours tomato sauce that stole the show. Just a dash of gochujang (a spicy Korean condiment) gave it a gentle kick at the end that left us debating about whether or not it would be socially acceptable to lick the plate (Mauro kindly offered us more bread instead). We particularly enjoyed the Naples Kimbap (like Korean sushi), which was also sauced to perfection. The Mushroom Gnocchi, Kimchi Lasagna (one of the spicier items on the menu), Chocolate Potato (dessert gnocchi in a chocolate gochujang sauce) and house "nutella" rounded out our selections, and were all tasty. Eating here was just FUN. The creativity, talent and joy the chefs bring the to menu is apparent. I mean, when else are you going to get to try finger-licking-good Italian-Korean-vegan cuisine? Do yourself a favor and give this place a try. Bring friends, because part of the fun is getting to try all of the different dishes. read more

On a cold, windy and rainy day in April I stumbled across this place and my bowl of homemade kimchi vegan udon soup warmed up my tummy and heart! They were also playing some serious reggae which made it easier to forget the miserable weather just outside! Instead of your usual Wasabi, Leon or Pret lunch support Vegan Yes! You may actually remember what you had for lunch that day. read more

Loved our experience here. Such an interesting concept with quality, homemade all vegan food that is hard to come by. The owner is so kind and friendly and loves what he does -- he really made our day better after stopping in randomly for a bit to eat. The lasagna was amazing-- Make sure to try some of the homemade mozzarella! Thank you! read more

Amazing food and standout service! Super original and surprisingly coherent fusion of Korean and Italian cuisine.

You might think that vegan Korean/Italian food would be an odd fusion, but that's what makes it so fantastic. The proprietors have concocted and amazing selection of dishes that will delight your taste buds. Even if you aren't vegan, this place will be quite a treat. Plus, if you're not sure exactly what you might like, they are very patient and friendly and can guide you through their selections to help you make a great choice. I am vegan and always try to seek out vegan-only restaurants when I travel, and this find was quite a gem. Highly recommended for vegans and non-vegans alike. I had the kimchi lasagna and thought it was amazing, but talk to the experts when you get there to find the dish you will love the most. read more

This place is amazing! The food is both delicious and creative. I had the gnocchi, which was a super delicious and spicy combo of italian and korean flavors. Very reasonable price and the staff (especially the enthusiastic owner, Mauro) are amazing and quick. Will definitely be back read more
