raw and roxy

got dragged to raw & roxy today and i'm usually dead against vegan food but my this place changed my opinion. delicious raw pizza and zucchini pasta.

what a stunning experience!!! i ordered the platter , ice cream and chocolate avo ganache and every item was delicious! stunning location, exceptional food and awesome staff. i will definitely return!!!

absolutely love raw & roxy. one of my favourite places in cape town!
the lasagne is amazing! the pizza is superb. love the smoothies - delicious and thick. the juices are nice. the carrot cake is to die for!
also went to a "uncook" class - enjoyed all the meals we prepared and had tasters of sooo many desserts! all were amazing! the ice cream is a must!
beatrice is awesome and all the staff!

i have eaten here multiple times and this is one of the best rawfood restaurants i have been to in my life having explored them all over the globe. some of the dishes here are highly addictive like the kale chips, sushi and summer rolls, as well as desserts like cheese cake and snickers or magnum. that's what i keep on going back to. if you there the first time, try the sushi. tapas gives u a little taster, but not as satisfying as each meal alone. owner is very friendly and extremely health knowledgeable.

a great concept for those super healthy vegans, although it can be turned into more of a vibe with jammy music and perhaps an alcohol license for later hours. the food is unavoidably healthy- if you’re not vegan the food will take some getting used to. the decor is cool, the service is good. there is an overall pretentious vibe to the place but if you’re into super healthy vegan food then this is the place for you, don’t forget to take a picture because the food is aesthetic!

okay. so i finally got to try out this widely known vegan spot, and here's what i have to say:

1. the decor a superb. comfortably lit with natural elements, and incredibly neat.

2. the service is polite. my waitress was attentive enough to me, but didn't hog my space.

but...

3. the menu items are on the slightly pricey side of the spectrum - nevertheless, when my large smoothie arrived, it looked so decorative, i forgot all about the price!

4. the portion size is certainly quite small. for a person like me who arrived there hungry, my hungry eyes weren't happy when the order arrived.

...and the food taste...?

5. i ordered the raw pizza, and i won't like, i expected a pizza-style dish, but that wasn't the case. oh well! it was delicious. the natural, raw flavours in the dish came out well, and i savoured every bite of my mini-weirdly-styled-pizza.

i would've loved to try out the desserts, but despite the tiny pizza portion, i was pretty, courtesy of that aesthetically appealing smoothie.

so, would i go back?

maybe... once in a while... to treat myself...

really enjoyed the tapas selection! i am not a vegan but this meal was so tasty and fantastic that i was actually considering going vegan afterwards. fabulous restaurant!

significantly overpriced. i tried their tapas platter, which consisted of a variety of different dishes. the portion sizes were very small, the waitress said it's enough for one person, but it was more like a starter and i was left hungry afterwards. their entire menu is very expensive considering what you can get elsewhere.  i mean if the food was spectacular then i wouldn't mind the premium, but the food was just 'good'. the flavours and textures of the bit-sized portions were good. everything was fresh. but i wouldn't come back here again if those prices remain the same. it was 'nice' to try out at least.

i literally dream of the vegan snickers this place offers. can’t wait to go back for more. the owner is a lovely lady that loves to have a nice chat with her clients about all the wonderful food. do yourself a favor and go here even if you are not vegan. i promise you won’t regret it.

does not live up to the hype. the food is pretty expensive and i have had much better experiences at other vegan restaurants. some of the flavours did not go so well together while others were just okay. however, the deserts and smoothies are much better. if your main objective is finding a raw menu, you'll probably enjoy it here. if your objective is to find vegan food, there are definitely better options available in cape town.

an absolute gem of a place! food amazing! fresh produce and put together like a picture book... absolute artwork on a plate! the vegan food will make a non vegan eater change... guaranteed! tastes like “ more” a must visit...

raw and roxy has never failed to tantalize my taste buds. the combination of ingredients packs each meal full with flavour. the new location in hout street brings a new charisma and flair to this established brand. a must-visit for all vegetarians and vegans.

certainly interesting, cannot say it was a favourite place as raw is not my thing but really enjoyed the experience and as far as raw goes it was tasty.

zucchini lasagne and smoothie was a winner, or the plate with everything on it . great cocnept

great food. really unique, loved the simplicity and interior. food is not badly priced. smoothies are a meal by itself. would go back soon! the vibe was good, not a place i would of stopped at if i didn’t google it before. doesn’t look like much from outside but great inside!!

the owner passionate about everything to do with your health.  menu constantly changes and gets better all the time.  food of high quality, fresh, organic, healthy ... what more can i ask for ...
