Ancestral rice bowl was good, and huge portions. Tofu was done right. I didn't like the mango juice much, maybe because I'm not used to these kind of mangoes here.
I didn’t enjoy Serendipia Encuentro.. I ABSOLUTELY LOVED it. The food was great, the atmosphere was great and most importantly.. the staff was great. Gabriel (Vitinha) was the highlight of my trip. It was so good.. I came back the next day. This place does great empanadas, banging chai.. and also offer a quiet room for those who wish to pray. Big up Gabriel.
First things first, the chai is incredible so make sure you order. Gabriel is a very welcoming and friendly waiter who made us feel special the two times we came. The fact we came twice speaks for how good the food was. Overall a must not miss when you are in Salento!
Very good vegan food, even not for a vegan.nGabriel is a very good waiter and is very nice, he will accommodate for you.n(India chai is amazing)
Fantastic place we stumbled upon since we are halal boys. Good food, try the burgers. But even better than that was the fact that they offered us a place to pray. Shoutout to Gabriel, lovely guy!!
Wow, not only is everything vegetarian or vegan, the wide variety of options is delicious even for non vegetarians! We came with family because I’m vegetarian and they didn’t know the dishes were all vegetarian/vegan. At first they were worried but after the appetizers and their meals arrived they were completely satisfied with their super delicious meals. Everything was amazing! The service and atmosphere couldn’t be better. I wish I had taken pictures but it didn’t last long once served. Bring your friends and family.
Good service, the burger was delicious and the empanadas were super crispy.
The best vegetable lasagna I've ever tried, everything we ate was absolutely delicious, the cream of vegetable soup and the pizza were truly incredible, and Gabriel's attention and recommendations made it even better. Very nice service and customer service :)
The vegan ajiaco! DELICIOUS! Great service and all the dishes are amazing! The green mango lemonade is highly recommended! The place was very nice and clean.
The best vegan food in Salento! Everything is veggie and they can make most options vegan. All the options we tried were fantastic - the burger (Portobello mushroom) was the best I have had in Colombia. The pizzas can also be made vegan by using tofu instead of cheese, which works surprisingly well! Great vibe and lovely staff!
Excellent food and vibes! Had the Arroz Ancienta which was fantastic. Loved this place and would come back again!
A pleasure to find high-level vegetarian restaurants in Colombia. We will repeat!
We stumbled upon this cozy vegetarian spot in Salento and it absolutely delivered. The vegetarian burgers were hearty, flavorful, and satisfying without trying too hard to mimic meat — just really solid plant-based cooking. The mushroom ceviche was a standout: fresh, zesty, and super creative. And the mango smoothies? Unreal. So fresh and naturally sweet, we almost ordered a second round just for the road.nnThe vibe is warm and welcoming, with staff who are genuinely friendly and clearly passionate about the food. Bonus: they take credit cards, which isn’t always a given in town. If you’re looking for a spot that hits all the right notes — tasty, fresh, kind staff — this one’s a no-brainer. Definitely worth a visit whether you’re vegetarian or just craving something fresh and delicious.nn(AND THEY JJST BROUGHT OUY THE MOST DELICIOUS DESERTS!!! What a treat) thanks everyone xox
One of the better vegetarian places in Salento. The taste was good, but not special. Therefor just 4 stars. Staff is friendly and next to the Main Street. Worth a visit
Highly recommended! We had the cazuela de frijoles, colombian empanadas, and the lemonades and it was all great! This was our favorite restaurant during our trip. We had friends who are not vegetarian and they loved the food. The service and atmosphere are great!
Loved that place. It is tasty and the portion are more than generous. The menu is offering many options and as a veggie lover I was extremely satisfied by their food
Hands down the best food we have in Colombia!nnWe tried 3 different dishes (ancestral rice, ajiaco, and mixed plate) on 2 separate visits, didn’t disappoint at all.nHonorable mention to Ancestral Rice, it is the best stir-fried we had in Colombia, and we are Asian so we are very picky with stir-fried. Most places make it too wet or too salty, but this place got it right, plenty of mushrooms in the rice too which is quite rare in Colombia.nnThe next day we had the mixed plate and added tofu on the side. We love the flavour of the mixed plate but find the taste of eggplant a bit underwhelming, didn’t go too well, maybe the eggplant should be roasted more or the sauce has to change?nI love the texture of the tofu and the sauce that comes with it, and they are very generous with the portion
Although the place is very nice, the service was prompt and it's strategically located. The falafels are NOT falafels, and the babaganoush portion is a spoonful (when the side dish usually starts at 80g), not 15g like my dish. The falafels weren't cooked to the right temperature and therefore absorbed quite a bit of oil. I actually felt dizzy and gassy as soon as I finished eating because apparently they don't remove the green root from the garlic used in babaganoush, which is always removed to prevent gas. If you're going to offer a different kind of cuisine, don't sell just any old thing; thoroughly study the processes required to provide quality products.
Delicious ! Generous dish, full of flavors, we tasted the mixed Plato, it was a treat!
Great little vegetarian and pizza restaurant ...super tasty wok vegetables came with rice and tofu... the hummus and freshly baked pita was tasty. All super fresh. Well worth a visit
An exclusively vegetarian restaurant, it was great to have such a range of interesting meals to choose from. A nice atmosphere in a traditional Salenti space. The dishes are creative, such as the mushroom ceviche started which we had. For mains we had veg Ajaico and the mixed plate with lentil balls, eggplant, stir fried veg. The food was fresh, healthy and plentiful. It was tasty but not overwhelmingly delicious so I’d give it 4.5 stars.
Great atmosphere, staff was patient and very customer-centric. Food was delishious and the portions were very generous. Lots of plant-based / vegan / healthy options
Very, very good - there was even gluten-free pasta. Can highly recommend mango juice too. Service also very good.
For us Italians, the right place.. after having spent 35 days on rice and bananas and onion (thousand acidity) you need carbohydrates or Italian cuisine.. I must say that this restaurant has a pizza that is up to par just as we Italians look for it.. congratulations
Very good for eating wok vegetables, salad and very good fresh lemonade.
The vegetable wok was perfect, fresh produce, generous plate.nThe server was friendly. The best peppermint lemonade!
Best vegan food in Salento, all dishes were fantastic
It is an excellent space to enjoy a quiet moment with a delicious meal.nThe quality, the service, the attention I give them a rating of 5.nHealthy foods, sauces prepared by them. I loved the orellanas, mushrooms, the 4-cheese pizza, the pesto pasta was highly recommended.nDelicious, recommended.
Amazing vegetarian restaurants in the centre of salento. We tried the ancestral dish and the eggplant with cheese, both really tasty.nI really recommend this place.
The food, the service and the ambience is one of the finest in salento. Even though we hardly spoke much Spanish and they spoke only a little English , never in our two visits in two days did we feel we had any difficulty in communication. Front of house, Alejandra and Gabriel were attentive, smiling , super friendly and brilliant at their jobs and the chef Claudia had a magic touch in her hands to make all the deliciously conceived and beautifully crafted dishes shine on the plates.nAny Vegetarian or a wholesome carnivore would not walk out disappointed from this establishment.nA big kudos to the team above they truly make this place worth every peso!!nDon't wait book a table now!!!
If you're hungry, the ancestral rice bowl is huge and tasty, with delicious fresh avocado. Super friendly staff. Good place for solo travellers to sit and watch people walk past up the main street in the evening. And the vegan chocolate pudding is amazing (sorry no pic, are it too quickly )! Good to be able to charge a phone while you eat too.
I recommend this restaurant!nVery good and full of flavor!
An exceptional culinary experience for vegetarians and food loversnnI had the pleasure of dining at this extraordinary vegetarian restaurant, and it was an experience that far exceeded all my expectations. From the first moment I felt welcomed: the atmosphere is warm, inviting, and designed with great attention to detail.nnThe menu is a true tribute to vegetarian cuisine: creative, versatile, and full of flavor. Each dish I tried was not only a visual work of art but also perfectly balanced in taste. What I truly loved was the freshness of the ingredients, which was not only perceived in the texture but also in the flavor of each bite. It's clear that special attention is paid to the quality of the produce, elevating each dish to a higher level.nnThe service was excellent: attentive, friendly, and with obvious enthusiasm for the restaurant's concept. The staff took the time to explain the dishes and were very helpful with questions about allergies or special requests.nnA personal highlight was the dessert: a true delight that would win over even the most discerning sweet tooth.nnThis restaurant is a must-visit, not only for vegetarians, but for anyone who appreciates fresh, healthy cuisine.
Delicious and healthy food. You can taste the love that goes into preparing it in every bite. The place is very pretty.
The food is very delicious, very natural and very good portions.nThey should have the chocolate option with a piece of cheese on the menu.
Amazing food. The carrot soup was a dream, pizzas were good too
Lovely experience at Serendipia this evening. We were celebrating a birthday and the team went above and beyond! The food was wholesome and tasty and everyone was so warm and welcoming. Special thanks to Alejandra!!nCan’t wait to visit again x
Very tasty vegetarian food with many vegan options. The service was super friendly and attentive. We went there twice and would definitely go back.
