raw and roxy

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.tapasgives u a little taster, but not as satisfying as each meal alone. owner is very friendly and extremely health knowledgeable.

really enjoyed thetapasselection! 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 theirtapasplatter, 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 went here for the first time today for lunch and the food was absolutely incredible. it's not cheap, but the produce and ingredients are good and you can't put a price on the amount of thought and effort put into the recipes and dishes. delicious, healthy food, with a passionate owner. i had thetapasplatter (to try a bit of everything) and shared the snickers bar and mint 'magnum'. will be back soon!

amazing vegan food! came a little after 11am for an early lunch. had both thetapasand dessert platters. safe to say i couldn't finish it all. my favourite on thetapasplatter was the pasta pesto, lasagne and thai red curry. least favourite was the cauliflower fried rice. on the dessert platter, the cheesecake and chocolate ganache was so yummy! the magnum was as hard as a rock though. prices are a little steep, but the food overall is really good.

jummy food , me and mu daughter ordered thetapasplate, we loved the raw lasagna, very inspiring to go totally raw.will def.come for the classes!

beautiful space in cbd. i really love the idea of eating raw and i know it is the best you can do for your body. we ordered thetapasplatters to get a taste of many different dishes. the lasagna and thai curry cauliflower were my favorites. the deserttapasare in the picture. great place.

dishes at raw and roxy are magnificent. the textures are combined in the most perfect sensory balance, the flavours are deliciously unique and exciting. one of the best things is how energised and nourished you feel after eating a meal. but prehaps that's just an effect of the superiority- you know, the moral high ground of your healthiness and environmental consciousness that comes with even one raw vegan meals? either way, the feeling was addictive enough to inspire me to cut out meat and refined sugar and to lust for a return.
a friend and i shared the mediumtapasand everything tastes heavenly and we were both surprisingly completely full afterwards.

go to raw and roxy for a raw-vegan experience ahead of its time in cape town. it's not fancy and it can often be slow, but the food is probably unlike anything you've had before so relax and enjoy! go for thetapasplate which gives you a taste of everything on offer and do not shy away from their extraordinary 100% guilt free puddings. if you're thirsty, they've also got amazing smoothies and coffee alternatives served in jars. you'll walk out feeling full and revitalised and may have a packet of kale chips under your arm.

the food was to die for, but i left with an incredibly bitter taste in my mouth, and the certainty that i shall never return.

i came here today to celebrate my 21st birthday with my 4 digs mates. i was so excited as two of them had never been here, so i suggested we share the largetapasplatter so that they could have a taste of all the yumminess that was on offer and then after we could each order a desert (this way we would not be too full to enjoy our deserts). when we placed our order, the owner was evidently unimpressed that we had ordered thetapasplatter to share, referring to our young ages and our student budgets - but we didn't make a fuss of it, as it wasn't so much about the price as trying all the food. we ate our platter with delightful conversation, in a calm manner, and the food and the deserts were absolutely incredible! i truly love what the restaurant does with food! the other staff were also incredibly friendly and accommodating. but...as we went up to pay, naturally splitting the cost of the meal four ways considering we had shared, we were met by the most unkind and disrespectful words i have heard in a long time. the owner of the restaurant shouted in front of everyone that she "does not make food for young children to order one meal to share!" and that she had been "running around after us, fetching water!" and "we should go home, grow up, learn some maturity, and eat with the grown ups when we have done so!" she shouted some other false accusations, which i didn't really take in because i was so shocked at this aggression thrown at us, and we eventually left feeling incredibly upset, angry, and disappointed - not how one should feel when celebrating a birthday with friends. as a 21 year old student, finishing up my undergrad, who has been involved in the waitressing business, works as a coach with kids, i have never experienced such disgusting behavior from someone in the service industry.

i have recommended this place to many of my friends, however, i will not be recommending it anymore as i have never been treated so badly due to my perceived immaturity i.e. we didn't each order a massive meal that would have been too much for us.

i've got no choice but to give this place a 5, i've been here numerous times and have yet to be disappointed. the food is beyond tasty and bursting with love. i highly recommend thetapasplate and if you still have space, a magnum. a must go to, even for non vegans!

this little place is in the middle of a very unsafe neighbourhood. clean and fresh on the inside, with lovely fresh flowers on the tables. little choice of drinks. i can recommend the i am awesome juice, if you are into cucumbers. the food however... don't go there hungry or if you are not a full blown vegan. we had thetapasand it was a plate full of little salads... the 'lasagne' salad left us nauseous. the chocolate ganache is yum! i'll go back for the healthy sweet treats, but not the food.

seriously, i can't explain how much i love this place. i am an absolute health nut and walking in here is like christmas and my birthday all rolled into one. i keep finding excuses to go back.

if you go, make sure you get thetapasplate - it's the best thing ever because it gives you the chance to try almost everything on their lunch menu in one go. seriously, more restaurants should cater for the indecisive.

if you are feeling a bit run down, get the rocket fuel smoothie - you'll be buzzing for a good couple of days afterwards because of the healthy goodness there is in there.

their 'dessert' is incredible. they have a vegan carrot cake, which is dense and delicious and they also have something chocolatey made with cacao and avocado which tastes better than any flourless chocolate tart i've ever eaten.

vegan food doesn't get much better than this- even non-vegans will appreciate the deliciousness. they also have a cooking course class on thursday evenings which i am absolutely dying to try. i kind of wish i lived here so i could eat their food all day every day.

so excited i finally got to try this place! absolutely delicious and jam-packed with natures goodness. whoever said vegan food is unfulfilling is doing it wrong. give this spot a try, their menu and flavours are diverse and delish. i had thetapasplate which is basically a taster of everything. looking at the plate i thought it wasn't going to touch sides, boy was i wrong. it's kept me satisfied for hours. if i wasn't stuffed enough i topped it off with their 'rock it' fuel smoothie made of cacao and all the super foods mother nature has on offer. chocolatey and rich - best part - won't make you fat!

the place itself lacks ambience but i don't think that's what they're going for anyway. it's all about good and clean eating!

this place is a hidden gem in woodstock. literally everything on the menu is raw, and seeing as it was my first time visiting today, i wanted to try it all - which you can! we ordered thetapastasting plate, and for r90 you get a little bit of every dish on the menu. although it's quite pricey, it's awesome - and now i know exactly what full dish i will order when i go back (the veg lasagne and guacamole salad, fyi). we also got mini carrot cakes for takeaway, and they were super yummy. next time i'll try a smoothie too - the rocket fuel looked delicious.
