Excellente nourriture. J'y suis allée trois fois à date. Chaque repas était délicieux. À chaque fois, l'ambiance était parfaite & les serveurs sont très gentils. La dernière fois que j'y suis allée, j'étais seule, la nourriture est arrivée vraiment rapidement. Il faut juste avoir une bonne appétit pour pouvoir finir nos assiettes, les repas sont des bonne portions & ils bourrent. Je prends maintenant qu'un seul repas quand j'y vais seule pour pouvoir être capable de finir mon assiette.
Stopped by for lunch, both servers helping us were superb in their service, knowledge & went out of their way to accommodate allergies. The menu was great, food was excellent & atmosphere outstanding. I'm in the city for only a few more days & love exploring different places, this one though I'd gladly come back to every day of my remaining stay.
The food at Don Vegan is nothing short of delicious. The flavours are rich, strong, & actually vary from dish to dish. It is common for vegan dishes to have similar flavor profiles because they often rely on a common ingredient that makes up the substance of several dishes. Don Vegan is not like that. The Risotto & pasta, for example, share no common flavor profile & rival their non-vegan counterparts. They have a fixed price, 3 course meal available which has satisfying portions & comes at a great price, especially considering the location & common rates in tourist spots. The atmosphere is nice, though it is a smaller venue. We have been lucky to have been seated without wait, but when we were here in the summer, it was VERY busy.
I'm giving the restaurant 3 stars because of their food, presentation, & service. However, the overall experience wasn't great. I made a reservation for Christmas night in advance, as I knew they would be busy. The person who confirmed the reservation told me they would have a happy hour after 8 p.m., so we booked around that time. When we arrived, we were told it was misinformation on their end. There was no apology from the server. Here's the worst part: While waiting for our table, they made us stand near the entrance. Considering the restaurant is small & it was a busy Christmas night, the lady at the front didn't offer us a seat at the bar, even though there were vacant seats. The overcrowding also led to an accident: a dasher accidentally spilled hot soup when the bag tore at the bottom, & some of it even spilled on my clothes. The staff member who handed over the package didn't apologize at all. It seemed like they were too proud of how they were operating. Despite everything, I didn't want to ruin the Christmas night for myself & my partner, so we decided to stay & enjoy our meal. The service was good, & the food was good! But the overall experience, unfortunately, was not. Also I have tried better vegan restaurants & would say it was average.
