Want to know what we think/thought?
I get skeptical when trying new food & new vegetarian restaurants.

I almost always worry that I’ll be underwhelmed, dissatisfied, or just bored with the selections.

However, when visiting Artemisa I went with an open mind willing to try something new.

I ordered the Mexican salad first! Let me explain this Mexican salad in depth! The portion is one thing I was best pleased with! It was bigger then I expected. Not only did it have olives… It also had GUACAMOLE accompanied by tortilla chips, tomatoes & a lemon sauce…

This salad was exceptionally fresh! I also loved the traditional plate it was served in.

After devouring my salad I didn’t even think I had the capacity to eat more from the set menu!

There were two main course options I ordered the first option which included: A Seasoned/Breaded Soy Burger, Vegetable Curry, Stuffed Bell Pepper, & Vegetable Rice Medley. Which was belly filling without having the need to eat! I instantly became full upon one glance of my plate!!!

This meal was heavy & had food in abundance so it was slightly overwhelming for me. My favourite piece of the meal were the vegetable rice medley as well as the seasoned/breaded soy burger. The curry wasn’t a curry I was familiar with at all, it was not spicy nor did it have the usual tint most curries are highlighted with.

Due to the late timing of my visit I was slightly rushed & took my dessert (which was an apple tarts) to go!

The staff were accommodating and sweet.
