Govinda Gopal Restaurante Vegetariano

Simple, cheap, and good. Vegetarian and vegan food that actually fills you up without emptying your wallet. The vibe is super chill and spiritual... Don’t expect fancy presentation or trendy decor. You come here to eat well, feel grounded, and leave satisfied.

Absolutely love this place. Amazing vegan food, a set menu everyday ($3.25 for a meal, soup, tea and small dessert), or a normal menu with lots options. Staff are so lovely (and we’re patient with our Spanish!).

After an exhausting day this place hit the spot with a nourishing, healthy meal that included rice, beans, zucchini patty, bowl of soup, ginger tea and cantaloupe for $3.25 (menu del día). I also bought a slice of chocolate torta to go which was really good and not very sweet.

Lovely place. You enter what seems to be a Yoga lounge and it’s all health focused. The restaurant itself is run by a family and I was hosted by the 8 year old child who was my waiter (it was a Sunday so the kid was off school). Delightful service and delicious homemade food for unbeatable prices. Cash only. This place is great!

Way better than any other vegan restaurants in Quito that are overpriced with small portions. Apu Wasi is another vegan restaurant with an arrogant owner, super overpriced with small portions I will never go to again! Govinda is the best hands down!!!

This is some of the best vegetarian food I've ever had. We came here for dinner and had Chaulafan, pinchos, and empanadas. The prices are great, and staff is very friendly. When coming for dinner it may look closed but just knock on the door. You may be eating in an empty dining area but I promise you won't regret it. There is a cozy Hindu temple on the second floor.

This was the first place we came to in Quito. They let us bring in all our luggage and rest for a while. The courtyard is beautiful and peaceful. For lunch, they had a set menu for only $3.50 per person! Make sure to have cash. We had a soup, salad, and rice with vegetables. If you are a picky eater, come after 3 pm so you can order ala carte.

Great little Hari Krishna restaurant. Daily set menu, great value. Extensive menu options. Nice, peaceful atmosphere amid the busy Quito old town. Highly recommended.
