La Zanahoria

Consistently inventive and delicious daily menu M-Th and wonderful buffet F-Sun. Attractive, airy space. Excellent prices for the quality and quantity of food. Great rolls. Friendly staff. I've eaten there over half the days of my month long trip and loved being able to sample so many Mexican classics made veg or vegan.

This is a gem of a healthy vegan place to dine near the zocalo en Puebla. While the food in Puebla is probably the most delicious in all of Mexico, it can do some damage to your waist and belly. Take a break and visit La Zanahoria. The restaurant is large with several dining areas and has a great ambiance. The serving staff is super nice and attentive. I've eaten here several times, including with larger groups. Servers have always done a great job. There is a variety of foods, but the "Menu del Día" is a special set price meal for the day. It includes a starter salad, soup, and a main course. The food is heavily vegetarian. It also includes aguas frescas drink, typically sandía. It's a great deal, leans healthy, and tastes great. I continue to visit once every week or two. Recommended!

One of the top five vegetarian restaurants I've ever eaten at. Everything, and I mean everything, was delicious. I don't think I ate so well any other time on my entire trip. Highly, highly recommend. Beautiful restaurant, and staff were great too! It was a shame we ordered too much and couldn't bring it with us because it was such delicious food. If I were local, I'd eat here once a week, easily.

This is part of the hotel. Very clean despite repairs going on. They have a large tree growing in the seating area. Fully vegetarian restaurant. They have very nice food though some of them had eggs. So best to check Very helpful staff and reasonable prices.

This is the best vegetarian restaurant I've been to in Latin America thus far. They have an large spread of both typical Mexican recipes and modern takes on traditional dishes. Their salad bar is extensive as is their desserts. The service was nothing to write home about, but it wasn't bad either. The space was surprisingly large and naturally bright. I may eat here again during my short stay.

A nice vegetarian place in Puebla, nice service, good food. Their credit card machine tends to be broken (it was. stressful moment, but then, suddenly, the machine woke up). I recommend bringing cash.

It was great to taste the vegetarian version of all the famous dishes of the region. Went for breakfast but were delighted to find an amazing brunch buffet priced very minimally and includes a variety of fruits, desserts,fruit juices and coffee as well. And set in a lovely building close to the cathedral. Clean toilets upstairs. Plenty of seating.

As a vegan mountaineer I am always hungry! What a nice surprise it was to find this place!!! I ate for a week every time I stepped in! Tasty food, try the menu of the day!

I've eaten here many times and I'll never do it again. I hope to save others from making the same mistake. We ordered two plates from the vegan menu (plantain croquettes w/ tofu salad & soy enchiladas w/ refried beans). The head waitress repeated our order and confirmed the plates were vegan. Both plates arrived with what we assumed to be tofu and vegan cheese. We took our first bite to find out it was NOT vegan. It was panela cheese. I want to emphasize that their menu differentiates between vegan & vegetarian plates, and they clearly describe the ingredients. We respectfully mentioned the mistake to another waitress but she was incredulous and hostile, and treated us as is if we were being difficult. We asked her to check with the kitchen. She took the first plate and returned several minutes later having substituted the cheese for tofu saying nothing of the mistake. We asked if she could do the same for the second plate. She rolled her eyes, took the plate, and returned having superficially brushed off most of the cheese, tossing the plate onto the table and saying nothing of the mistake again. How can they make this mistake and not care? We called over the head waitress and explained what happened. She retrieved our order ticket, noted that both orders were written as vegan, but was incredulous regarding the mistake. We prefaced our concern with our respect for the restaurant and our understanding that it was a busy day. The head waitress was unconcerned, saying that MOST of the plate was vegan. Guests from another table overheard our conversation and agreed with us that the restaurant should take the issue seriously, and suggested they offer us a discount. The head waitress returned with the check having taken off 10%. Despite this insult we paid and left no tip. This is my first time not tipping and my first time giving a negative review. 24 hours after the experience my stomach is still upset. I'm very disappointed in a restaurant that used to be a favorite. ___________________________________________________________________ He comido aquí muchas veces y nunca lo volveré a hacer. Espero salvar a otros de cometer el mismo error. Pedimos dos platos del menú vegano (croquetas de plátano con ensalada de tofu & enchiladas de soya con frijoles refritos) La camarera principal repitió nuestro pedido y confirmó que los platos eran veganos. Ambos platos llegaron con lo que supusimos que era tofu y queso vegano. Dimos nuestro primer bocado para descubrir que NO era vegano. Era queso panela en ambos platos. Quiero enfatizar que su menú reconoce la diferencia entre platos veganos y vegetarianos, y claramente describen cada uno de los ingredientes. Mencionamos respetuosamente el error a otra camarera, pero ella no nos creyó y nos trató como si estuviéramos siendo difíciles. Le pedimos de la manera más atenta rectificar con cocina. Ella tomó el primer plato y regresó varios minutos después, sustituyendo el queso por tofu sin mencionar del error. Le preguntamos si podía hacer lo mismo con el segundo plato. Ella respondió incrédula y hostil, tomó el plato y regresó después de remover superficialmente la mayor parte del queso, arrojó el plato sobre la mesa y no volvió a decir nada sobre el error. ¿Cómo pueden cometer este tipo de error y no importarles en lo absoluto? Llamamos a la camarera principal y le explicamos lo que sucedió. Recuperó nuestra cuenta con el pedido y notó que ambos pedidos estaban escritos como veganos, pero incrédula sobre el error. Expresamos nuestra preocupación con nuestro respeto por el restaurante y nuestro entendimiento de que era un día ajetreado. La jefa de camarera no se preocupó y dijo que la MAYORÍA del plato era vegano. Los comensales de otra mesa escucharon nuestra conversación y estuvieron de acuerdo con nosotros en que el restaurante debería tomar el tema con la seriedad pertinente y sugirió que nos ofrecieran un descuento. La jefa de camarera regresó con la cuenta descontando solo el 10%. A pesar de este insulto pagamos y no dejamos propina. Esta es la primera vez que no dejo propina y la primera vez que hago una reseña negativa. 24 horas después de la experiencia, mi estómago todavía está revuelto. Estoy muy decepcionado de un restaurante que solía ser uno de los favoritos.

Great soy burger - also get the Organic Acapulcoco coconut water in the cooler in the tienda. It's outstanding. Sweet and refreshing all without added sugar. The best I've ever tasted. Soy burger was spot on. Nice bun. Great flavor

Had a few vegan options that helped a lot in my stay in Mexico. Only thing was that the vegan tostados had cheese I told them and they fixed it right a

La Zanahoria has smoothies, sandwiches, and salads, etc. If you're a vegan who doesn't take risks at food-stalls, this place is your gold star. At prices similar to a low-end restaurant in the states, La Zanahoria is better and the food is generally fresh. I've only tried the salad, salsa, chips, and guac, so that's all I can vouch for. What I tried tasted great, and the atmosphere was nice.
