Om Vegetarian Swanston St - Melbourne

Best value Vegetarian restaurant in Melbourne City.

Om Vegetarian is my favorite place for affordable and comforting vegetarian Indian food. The Makki roti and saag, a dish of corn bread and mustard leaf and spinach curry, is a standout item that usually costs up to $18 at other restaurants. However, at Om Vegetarian, it is priced at only $10.9, making it a great deal. I also recommend trying the Samosa or Aloo Tikki Chaats as a tasty starter to share or a light lunch option for solo travelers.

I absolutely loved the concept of this restaurant. It embraces the rich Indian culture of Annaprabrahma. The food is delicious and reasonably priced, catering to customers from various countries, races, and religions. The simplicity of this place is definitely a key factor to its success. I wish the team all the best and hope to see them expand with more locations across Australia.

When I’m in need of a quick, cheap and filling meal in the city, Om is my go-to. I love the no-frills environment and the all-you-can-eat veggie thali for $7.50. Considering it contains curries, rice, naan AND mango pickles, the value really can’t be beat. For something slightly more “fancy', Om also now offers a few mock meat dishes which is really exciting. Their vegan desserts also aren’t bad. If only it were open late. I doubt that would ever happen, but I can dream.

The thaali all you can eat for $7.50 is definitely worth it. I really enjoyed the lentil curry and roti bread. The staff are friendly. I will return when in the city and hungry. Great vegan meal.
