Viva - Menu

The food is ok but the pricing is ridiculous! They measure the amount you have on weighing scales and its not got a very pleasant atmosphere. It's a canteen and NOT a café or restaurant.  

Great food, good salad bar and large selection of dishes. Friendly staff, lots of room and space for lunch. Nice terrace, quiet spot for break. Well located and central. A little bit pricey but plenty of different choices.

the system is weight buffet. Food is good, same salads as other hot dishes such as some tofu brochette with vegetables. Good juices and a variety of soft drinks and beer. Excellent value for money: around 10 euros per person.

My first time in Karlsruhe, first time at Viva. Food was very delicious- lot of vegetable dishes, fresh salads, fresh juices. The food is very light, healthy and well cooked. Prices are ok. Can recommend to all vegans and vegetarians, who will visit Karlsruhe

The place offers good food, diverse. The setting is quite good, in the heart of Karlsruhe... You pay according to the weight of your plates (salad or hot dishes). It can be a little too expensive if you eat a lot, but if it's just a simple meal, it's wonderful...

I had pasted this place many times before but never went inside. What a surprise! A lots of chooses whether you want salat or big lunch or even a dessert. We enjoyed our lunch and had the change to stay longer for coffee. You can come in a group or alone who don't have to feel strange.We will be definitely back another time.

I really liked this vegetarian restaurant. Brilliant location, huge selection of hot and cold foods. You stock up your plate, then pay by weight. Our whole family of 5 ate dinner for 27€ including drinks, and the plates were not short on food! The one drawback was the atmosphere; it was extremely quiet when we went on a weeknight, which was surprising. Everything else was great.

Although I am English and the staff only speak German, it was easy enough to figure out that you serve yourself and take your plate to be weighed before paying. There is so much choice and everything is clearly labelled. I visited twice as I enjoyed it so much the first time and each time I piled my plate high but paid less than 7 euros for food. Definitely worth visiting if wanting an affordable and very healthy lunch or dinner.

I had dinner at Viva twice and I was always satisfied. Food is well prepared and tasty and selection is large - cooked veggies and grains, soups, risotto, DIY salads, beverages, juices, cakes. All dishes are vegetarian and many of them are vegan. Prices are per weight, not per dish, and very cheap (less than 2 euro per 100 g), there's no service which may be even better than usual under some circumstances (no one pushing you to take this or that, you have plenty of time to choose, take your own tray and plates...). Staff is nice and the place is very clean, cosy and well-kept.
