sattgrün theaterpassage in Essen

One of our favorite restaurants. Lots of delicious vegan dishes.

Everything is so delicious and so cozy

I'm not normally vegan. But I was very positively surprised by the taste and appearance of the dishes on offer. Very tasty and very good value for money.

Super delicious food! I'm not vegan or vegetarian but I still enjoy eating here! Great taste and very relaxed atmosphere.

The food was great, the service friendly and helpful.

A few weeks ago I discovered “lush green” thanks to a tip. It is a vegan buffet-based restaurant with several branches (including in Düsseldorf). I'm not a vegan myself, just a vegetarian, but I'm certainly open to this experiment. Given the variety and tasty nature of the buffet, one could easily come up with the idea of ​​"switching". You choose one of three plate sizes or a bowl, the rest is self-service. The buffet offers cold and warm dishes (also to take away) and is very rich. The food is freshly prepared and empty bowls are promptly supplied from the kitchen. The dishes can then be rounded off individually with fresh herbs and a variety of herbs, seeds and grains. A soup dish with bread side dishes is also offered, but I haven't tried this yet. Drinks are served directly at the checkout or can be requested there, as can dessert and cake. In my opinion, the food tastes excellent. I particularly recommend the cooked pumpkin. The range of cakes on offer is also not to be sneezed at. The ambience in warm wooden tones is pleasant, although functionally furnished. I found the staff to be friendly and I think the prices are absolutely reasonable. In principle you can also reserve tables here. However, it is advisable to ask here. I would like to come here more often and try out the entire buffet.

Great atmosphere and delicious vegan friendly dishes. Dishes can be prepared in buffet style for take away or dining in. Btw, the cappuccino gets a 9 out of 10!

This restaurant is a discovery. The food is delicious, the choice is enormous, the service is friendly and the atmosphere is extremely pleasant. Definitely worth it and we are already planning to try out the restaurants in Düsseldorf and Köln… or rather enjoy.

The buffet was very tasty, but the cake was unfortunately poor in taste and overly sugary

Nice, rather small restaurant. The food is very tasty. Self-service. I particularly enjoyed the soy stroganoff. The chocolate cherry cake is also sensational. We'd love to come back.

A nice vegan restaurant. Good food, nice service and pleasant atmosphere. I like to come there to eat with friends.

Always a good address if you are looking for delicious, vegan and, above all, varied food. After my last visit, I also consider it suitable for those with celiac disease, despite the buffet principle. The dishes are clearly marked as gluten-free. I don't know whether it was a happy coincidence or deliberate, I had the impression that the gluten-free dishes were in the "back row" or in a separate row. This reduces the risk of contamination enormously because no gluten-containing foods are loaded onto the gluten-free foods. Each container is also equipped with its own cutlery. The only downside is that there is currently no gluten-free cake option. If there were, it would have been 5 stars.

The best vegan place in Essen! Quick, super tasty and with great variety! A must visit!

The food is very tasty!!!! You put your own food together. Various bowls and bowls are available, graded according to size (and price). You have to be careful not to sit in a draft, but otherwise you sit comfortably. If you want to eat vegan, you will be very happy here 🤤

The idea is good but it wasn't delicious.

Great selection, nice service and super tasty 😋

No change over the years, just the price keeps rising. The paint is symbolically peeling off the benches.

Love it, finally a vegan buffet!

The food is delicious and the selection is plentiful. The latte with almond drink is a pleasure... Friendly staff included.

We have always enjoyed the food here so far. Even all the non-vegan people who brought along always had something to do here. The concept of the buffet is good, but the prices are high if you don't "fill up" your plate. It's nice to be able to help yourself to all the dishes at a buffet without having to ask about animal allergens first :) We have now been able to test a few cakes and we have always been very impressed with them. Unfortunately, the hot food is usually only lukewarm, which could be improved. I also find it disturbing that recently homeless people have often been harassing guests in restaurants. I can well understand that the employees don't want to put themselves in danger, but for me as a guest it is a reason for me as a guest to avoid the restaurant in the future if my stay there is influenced by outsiders (and especially their smells when eating are very unpleasant). I haven't experienced this at the other locations so far, perhaps a solution will be found here soon.

For fans of the plant-based lifestyle, eating lush greens is a little oasis of joy. In the summer, the outdoor terrace invites you to linger, but the inside is also very cozy. The young team is always friendly and well motivated. There is also a wide selection of delicious food and drinks. Conclusion: Sattgrün Essen is always worth a visit.

The employee takes something from the buffet in front of me and eats it. Where are we here? This is not something that can be taken for granted at all. The girl who did that shocked me. Otherwise the food is always good and of the same solid standard.

You can also eat it as a non-vegan 😜🤣

I like the food and I like that you don't have to pay attention to what is vegan because everything is vegan. 💚 Tip: Leave room for cake!

Nice staff. Enjoy your meal. Sit comfortably outside.

Very fresh, well-seasoned dishes that harmonized with each other on the buffet. The quality is much better than you would expect from a self-service restaurant. Nice service and you can sit outside in peace.

After an afternoon of bouldering, we went to Sattgrün. We had never heard of the concept of a vegan buffet restaurant (nothing like it in the Netherlands, as far as I know). How wonderful to have so much choice again! The taste of the food was delicious. We had a big plate and a medium plate, and nice and refreshing organic lemonades. Let's hope this (type of) restaurant also lands in the Netherlands!

Simply put: A cute really vegan buffet restaurant with a soup counter. There are different plate sizes to choose from, which you can fill up for a fixed price. The variants of the dishes are listed in the photo. The staff is incredibly accommodating, allergen-informed and friendly on every one of our visits. In addition, the lush green has - a play area - Toilets for guests - great drinks & A cute cake counter

Great selection of food. We were guests there as "meat eaters" and didn't miss anything. You also have to be open to new things. You can choose between small, medium and large plates, which you can then fill yourself from the buffet. The toilet is in the basement and can only be reached via stairs. You can also linger in the outdoor area and enjoy the day.

The staff was amazing! Super fun and diverse. I LOVED the black guy so much (I think his name was Stefano?). Definitely would recommend 😌!

The staff was very friendly and fast, I actually made a friend : Stefano, who spoke French and was so caring about us, thank you for that experience The food was good, but something in it (maybe the oil??) made me very sick right after finishing my plate

Always extremely tasty!!! :-) Also for those who don't normally eat vegan!

Always a very tasty selection of vegan food.

Great concept for anyone who wants to eat healthily. Always delicious and creative ideas. I'm thrilled and hope that Sattgrün can establish itself in other major cities in North Rhine-Westphalia.

ABSOLUTELY amazing food, the crumble and the Mediterranean bowl were out of this world, thank you for this blessed food ✨☺️

I found it incredibly tasty (especially the savory dishes), I was absolutely positively surprised at how well everything harmonized, even though I had thrown it together quite wildly. You could sit very relaxed inside or outside and the service was great.

Delicious food in Essen. Vegan and organic. Top quality 😋

Highly recommend! We chose three normal-sized dishes for 16.5€ each, and they were more than enough for each person! (Essen Stadtmitte >600m bis HBF)!

Really delicious, spicy food and a wide variety of both warm and cold at the buffet. The employees are always super nice and helpful. My parents, who are now almost 80 years old, love the lush green. It's nice to always find a mixed audience there, young and old 🙂 We always feel right at home.

Lots of choice and delicious food. Also great to take with you and eat on the go.

Delicious vegetarian food in a friendly atmosphere

This place is amazing. Buffet style with so much choice and all vegan! Price is perfect for the amount of food you can put in the bowls. And everything tasted just delicious. We weren't planning on it, but we came back for lunch the next day :)

Very tasty, great buffet, real prices. Perfect for flexitarians, vegetarians and vegans. And those who want to become one.

We had a very tasty and inexpensive vegan meal here. We would like to come again.

The food was very tasty and fresh 👍🏻. The medium plate size was 14.90 euros - see photo and the soup was 6.90 euros plus 2 slices of bread. The ambience outside is a bit shabby and could be repaired ;-) (a seat bar is missing, the guest cannot sit there). I gave three points for the service because it is a self-service restaurant.

Very tasty vegan food, soups and cakes.

Food is always freshly prepared and very tasty. Very diverse for every taste and very well priced.

Very nice atmosphere, have eaten there several times and it has always been tasty. A great selection of vegan dishes, a pleasant atmosphere to eat with friends or family. The toilets are in the basement and not easy to access with a wheelchair.

Super lovely people and very tasty food with a huge selection! I took a small box to go and it was completely enough ☺️

Unfortunately I have to deduct two stars. The food is very good, unfortunately the prices are constantly increasing. The limit will soon be completely crossed.

The food is ok, but far too expensive for the quality offered, because unfortunately it is often only lukewarm, often already soggy and overcooked and, above all, a lot of it seems greasy. There are much better addresses there. However, cake and coffee are very tasty and still provide a reason to go to Sattgrün.

Very good fast food in slow food quality

Just a stone's throw away from the hustle and bustle of Essen's city center, you can find delicious vegan food from the buffet in the Theaterpassage, which should have something for every taste. The restaurant is well maintained and clean, the service staff is friendly. One star deducted because the food could have been a little warmer. Otherwise everything was great, I'd love to come back.

Nice, exclusively vegan restaurant in downtown Essen. The concept of a hot buffet priced based on plate size is really good. The atmosphere is modern and inviting. The seating is not very comfortable, but it is enough for eating. The guest room is quite small for the number of guests and therefore it is often quite loud. The service is friendly. Since you're filling your own plate, the service is mainly limited to the payment process. Most of the dishes there are really tasty and creative. Unfortunately, the food is almost always lukewarm.

As a personal trainer, I always enjoy eating here. Healthy, tasty and very filling. Staff super friendly. Fully recommended

Good selection for occasional visits, varied salad bar due to the speed of the buffet, not all dishes are warm. Mostly still quite tasty. Something for almost everyone

Delicious vegan buffet restaurant. Good selection and decent quality at a reasonable price.

Cozy vegan restaurant with delicious food and friendly service. The chocolate cake with cherries is awesome! We met such nice people at the neighboring table that we forgot to take photos.

Best decision! Lots of vegan delicacy!! 🌱🌱🌱 Had the middle plate and left super full

Extremely delicious. Always my pleasure.

It was quite tasty but expensive

Fair prices and super delicious food! 🌱

I really enjoy eating here with my daughter. Very tasty, very friendly and not that big. A nice restaurant.

The food is very good. Even if you're not vegan, you'll still be full. However, the prices are steep.

Super delicious salad and hot food bar for self-service. The staff was super nice, everything was very hygienic ❤️ we would love to come here again

The food tastes simply amazing. Unfortunately it's usually very full.

Was there for the first time. The staff were very nice and helpful. The location itself is also very nice and pleasant. Food great too! Gladly again :D

Very great concept, very good food, not a single failure in the bowl, huge selection, friendly service, more than reasonable prices

Delicious, reasonably priced, super nice service. A nice restaurant 👍🏻👍🏻

Vegan restaurant with self-service buffet. If you didn't know how delicious vegan can be (or that at all... 🤣), you should try it out here. The concept: you choose a plate size that you can fill ONCE at the buffet, so be sure to assess your hunger carefully, because there is no need to catch up - but that deducts one star, because I find that unfortunate in that you tend to fill your plate super full to pack and end up either having leftovers or being too full... Because it may surprise some people, but vegan food can REALLY fill you up 😁 I think it's great to be able to try things there that I never have at home.. Jackfruit e.g. B. (very tasty by the way!).

The food is extremely tasty! We are actually neither vegan nor vegetarian. But we didn't miss anything. We also liked the uncomplicated pricing (different sized vessels).

I just love this food. A small salad and a refresher and my day is saved. The lush green is also my place of choice for eating cake. Personally, I also find self-service very pleasant. The toilets are clean and the staff is very friendly. :)

Super great vegan dishes. So much choice! And it actually tastes really, really good. The concept is well thought out. Self-service with “plate size selection” Nice ambience, perfect dishes and selection, good price/performance ratio, friendly staff. My first visit today, gladly again!

So good! I hope you open a restaurant in Augsburg soon 😋😋😋

Visiting Essen again after a long time... Great vegan restaurant located in the middle of Essen city center. You choose the plate size and pay for the size of the plate or take a bowl. There are also soups, very tasty cakes and coffee... Highly recommended

It all tastes very delicious. Seasonal vegetables are available depending on the season.

Not just vegetarian... Only the self service makes you think, but excellent quality

Such a delicious and great concept. It's so fun because you eat. Gladly again. Reasonable price, great food.

Delicious things and a really nice selection

산더미 처럼 쌓아서 먹어도 질리지도 않고 속도 편안한.. 이 도시의 마지막 식사를 아주 적당하게 하고 공항으로 떠났습니다 ^^

Super lecker und unkompliziert:) Man packt sich einfach etwas der variierenden Gerichte auf den Teller und zahlt an der Kasse. Wir waren schon öfter hier und werden dies wohl auch in Zukunft beibehalten. ;)

Lecker, wenn man den Teller gut vollpackt gutes Preis-Leistungsverhältnis. Richtig bequem sitzt man aber nur auf der Polsterbank.

Generell mag ich dieses Restaurant, genauer gesagt: Das Essen. Das Konzept empfinde ich jedoch nicht als gelungen: So ist mein Essen jedes Mal kalt, bis ich bezahlt und zum Tisch gegangen bin. Die aufkommende Unruhe durch das Hin- und Hergelaufe von Gästen und Servicepersonal lässt sich wohl nicht verhindern. Im Winter ist es recht frisch im Restaurant, ggfs wird hier an den Energiekosten gespart. Alles in allem also eine ambivalente Erfahrung. Aufgrund mangelhafter Alternativen in Essen werde ich aber wiederkommen. 🤷‍♀️

Einfach Spitze. Immer wieder gerne. Wir waren wieder neulich dort, alles bestens.

Sehr leckeres Essen mit einer angemessen großen Auswahl. Die Speisen sind frisch und werden regelmäßig nachgefüllt. Mir gefällt das Konzept auch als "nichtveganer" sehr - mir hat alles geschmeckt und ich habe nichts vermisst. Ich war bereits mehrfach da und es war immer wieder gut und ich hab alles gut vertragen! Ich wünschte es gäbe eine Filiale in unserer Nähe ;)

Nice diner (buffet) with a good price. Thanks!

I have never been out to eat and had such an amazing variety of epic plant-based food for such good price!

Großartig! Das nenn ich mal ein Restaurant! Alles vegan und unfassbar lecker. Wir wohnen 120 Kilometer entfernt von Köln, aber wenn wir in der Domstadt sind, gehen wir ins Sattgrün. Ich finde das Essen genial, unglaublich vielfältig und absolut überzeugend. Am liebsten würde ich sechs Sterne geben. Großes Lob an die Küche und das Konzept!!! - Einmal hier essen, und alle Käfige der Welt stehen leer.

Ein sehr schönes Restaurant mit angenehmem Ambiente. Bezahlt wird nach Tellergröße. Die Auswahl der Speisen ist überschaubar. Wir empfinden das als angenehm. Bei den Getränken ist es ähnlich. Es gibt nichts schlimmeres als eine überladene Speisekarte. Das Essen ist frisch zubereitet und schmeckt hervorragend. Alles in Allem ein einfaches Konzept, das uns ausgezeichnet gefällt. Wir kommen gerne wieder.

Tolles Buffet mit sehr leckeren und ausgefallen Speisen. Kommen immer wieder gerne. Sehr zu empfehlen.

Ich mag das Sattgrün so gerne. Einfach lecker essen. 5 Sterne, auch wenn zwei Dinge schade sind: - Warum gibt es Euch nicht in Bayern? - Ein Kuchen ohne Weizenmehl (glutenfrei oder mit Dinkelmehl) wäre super 🤗 Immer wieder gerne.

Das Restaurant ist gemütlich und angenehm ruhig. Die Speisen sind sehr lecker, allerdings waren einige der Gerichte vom warmen Büffet, z.B. das Blumenkohl-Möhren-Gemüse, lauwarm bis kalt. Das darf bei den doch recht hohen Preisen eigentlich nicht sein, denn man darf ja seinen Teller nur einmal befüllen. Beim nächsten Mal werde ich mich auf die Gerichte mit Soßen konzentrieren, die lassen sich offenbar leichter warmhalten.

Beste Essen ever. Komme sogar aus Wuppertal hierhin. Meeega köstlich.

Sehr freundlich, sehr lecker, sehr unaufgeregt. Richtig angenehm!

Das Buffet und die Suppen sind sehr lecker. Gemütliche Atmosphäre, liegt sehr zentral. Ich gehe dort immer wieder gern hin. Nur die Kuchen und Heißgetränke sind nicht so mein Fall. Die heiße Schokolade könnte man (auch vegan) besser hinbekommen, die Kuchen sind etwas krümelig und mächtig. Schön wäre z. B. mal Käsekuchen.

Da war wohl etwas schlecht. Wir waren mit 15 Personen gestern dort essen und über die Hälfte sitzt jetzt auf dem Klo.

Nie wieder!!! Ich war gestern mit einer Freundin da und scheinbar war das Essen nicht mehr gut. Beide hatten wir eine schlimme Nacht und mussten uns mit Magen-Darm durchkämpfen.

Wir waren mit einer großen Gruppe gestern Abend dort essen, anschließend hatte über die Hälfte Magen Darm. 🤢

Sehr lecker diese super Auswahl.

Sehr leckeres Veganes essen. Super Buffet. Sehr gute Auswahl
