Guest sentiment
A snapshot of what local diners frequently mention about this location.
"Delicious vegetarian and vegan Vietnamese options! Staff is super friendly with smiles and the outdoor seating area is quaint."
"It's a nice vegetarian taiwanese restaurant with good vegan food and it's very cheap as well. They are very attentive and they can veganize most of the menu items."
"The food was delicious, the service great. This place is wonderful if you are looking for tasty Asian-style vegetarian food. Prices are inexpensive and the portions are plentiful. I cannot believe I didn't know about this place before today. Highly recommended!"
"Oh my gosh this place is just amazing! I don’t even want to go to other places in Medellin after eating here. Everything is freshly made on spot and the people are just so friendly and helpful."
"Excellent food and even better value. Some items very authentic and some maybe changed to fit the Colombian palate. But overall very good and will return."
"This place is an absolute hidden gem! It's a vibe... The calm music, great vegetarian food (vegan options), great prices and super unpretentious. Easily my favorite place to go for a meal in Medellin. The Baos actually taste like Asia!"
"If Mati were a sit-down restaurant in Florenza it’d be one of the most popular vegetarian menu del dia places in town. Especially at its unbeatable 10,000 COP price point. But it’s not. It’s on the second floor of a noisy foodcourt in Monterrey Mall. Instead of your food magically materializing from the back kitchen in the hands of a server, you see the lady slop it onto your plate from the buffet in front of you and have to carry it on a tray to your table yourself. This detracts from the magic, but it shouldn’t detract from the taste. The food is tasty, varied, sizable, and a rare opportunity to taste some Asian flavours. I wouldn’t go there every day but I’ll definitely go back. Final Score: 8.5 (9 Value, 8 Quality) [For 30+ more of the best menu del dias in Medellin, google "best medellin lunch specials" and check out our in-depth guide.]"
"I visited this place second time and fall in love even more! Food is fantastic! Service is awesome! It's just a pearl of Laureles"
