Good food and nice atmosphere - Edit
The tofu Veg curry set was amazing, full of flavour and generous portion.
Read moreThe Budha Bowl was very plain and didn't came with all ingredients described on the menu. Despite our complain the chef gave us something else to warm our heart.
Pros: Generous porrion, Flavour food, Ambience
Cons: Budha bowl was plain, Less ingredients that showed on menu

Great nepali set meal - Edit
Visited a few times whilst in kathmandu and enjoyed every time! The nepali set meal in particular was delicious and probably the best meal I had in Kathmandu! The staff are friendly and the vibe of the place is that they really care about veganism and animal rights. Prices very reasonable too.

Nepali food that doesn’t scream - Edit
This is the oldest vegan restaurant in Nepal, they really respect animals here. I was made very welcome and asked if I wanted extra rice during my meal. It felt like a family meal. I had the brown rice khana, this is a Nepali Thali meal - accompanied by lentil soup (dal), vegetable curries (tarkari), pickles (achar), and a fish alternative, which was mushrooms. I really enjoyed eating a vegan version of a traditional dish. The portion was generous and the food was tasty 🙏

I want to love it, but… - Edit
We ate here several times last year. The location has changed and it’s only a block from our hotel, so it was the first place we went back to. While the entrance is clearly marked, you have to walk up three flights of stairs to the restaurant (not a problem for us, but be aware).
Read moreThere was a large group finishing their meal when we arrived and the one other person in the restaurant already had food, but it took about 10 minutes before we saw a server and got menus.
We ordered a veg salad and pizza. The server came back several minutes later to tell us there was no pizza, so we got the crispy Thai tofu burger and cauliflower wings.
After a very long wait our food finally came out.
The salad was basically a bowl of cucumber and carrot with green pepper and chunks of tomato. Not bad but not great.
The tofu burger was great, with a nice slice of tofu and coleslaw.
The cauliflower wings had a nice flavor, but the breading was really heavy.
It took a long time before we saw the server again. I got up and refilled our water glasses. We were ready to run out of there by the time we got the bill.
While the food wasn’t bad, the service was almost nonexistent. We won’t be back.

Delicious food, lovely people, beautiful views - Edit
We had an excellent lunch here! We ordered the soup momos, the tofu curry set, and the dhido set - all truly delicious! The dhido set was especially yum - a must order. We sat upstairs on the rooftop terrace, and it had beautiful views of the city and even the hills. It was softly raining while we were there, and was a magical experience. All the staff were very lovely and kind. We were able to take our leftovers home with us, and we were also told that all the salad vegetables are washed in bottled/filtered water so we were comfortable eating them. We can't recommend Loving Heart enough!

An unforgettable vegan experience at loving heart vegan restaurant - Edit
From the moment I stepped into Loving Heart Vegan Restaurant,
Read moreI was enveloped in a warm and inviting atmosphere. The staff's friendliness and the cozy ambiance set the stage for an exceptional dining experience.
I began with the renowned Chilli Momos -crispy delights drenched in a flavorful chili sauce that lived up to their reputation. The Breakfast Burrito was a revelation: a fluffy, gyro-like bread encasing a savory mix of fried mushrooms, onions, green peppers, tofu, and a delectable sauce.
The Seitan MO:MO and Chowmein were equally impressive, boasting generous fillings and rich flavors. For dessert, the "Hello Two the queen" vegan ice cream was a visual and gustatory treat, beautifully presented with fresh fruit garnishes.
What truly sets Loving Heart apart is their commitment to compassionate dining, offering a diverse menu that caters to both vegans and non-vegans alike. It's a must-visit spot in Kathmandu for anyone seeking delicious, plant-based cuisine.
