Really amazing hidden vegan place. Great atmosphere and great food! They will only have one entree option but your meal comes with soup, salad, tea and your entree. If you want to surprise a date with somewhere unique and special I would encourage this for vegans and non-vegans alike (I am not vegan or vegetarian)

Food is fresh and comes with u/l soup and salad of the day with their featured entree of the day. There is no menu. It has an open kitchen so you see the great chefs at work.

Very open outdoor space for seating with beautiful scenery of trees. So zen. A small park for the kids close by the seating. I'd like to come back and see what other meals are offered for lunch and dinner.

A wonderful hidden gem. I'm not vegan, rather I enjoy a whole food, plant based diet. Most vegan restaurants I find are far from healthy and whole. Casa de Luz brings positive health to the forefront of the meal every day with excellent flavor from the food instead of sugar and spice. I am so happy to have found this tranquil little kitchen.

My sister Maggie fell in love with this place in 2017 and she has introduced us all to it. I personally love all of their soups. The Indian night is also a favorite of mine as well as the tacos.

Everything is organic and made daily. With that being said, it is a place where you can easily have a home made meal. As a UT student, this place helps me get the proper nutrition I need when I don't have time to cook too. It is a pleasure.
The desserts are also one of a kind. I love their pies and cookies.
A vegan place that is one large community!

Horrible. No flavor, extremely bland. If this is okay with you, then you will like it. However, I like some flavor in my food. Expensive. Not worth it. Don't go. Go get ice cream at Lick instead, you will find more flavor.

This is my new favorite restaurant. Casa de Luz has my heart and my soul because the restaurant makes you feel so free. Walking in, the scene is very calm and peaceful. Lunch was $12 even. You pay first and then get your own appetizers. The staff bring you your lunch, so don't worry they will bring you something. It does take awhile but it is so worth the wait. The food is hella fresh and organic. I met the owner's son and their whole mantra is just fascinating. Casa de Luz advocates for changing people's knowledge on clean eating and fueling your body with the right ingredients. You have to change your taste buds so they are used to the unprocessed food. There is no junk here. Beautiful place.

Amazing Vegetarian Food - If you have never been - "ask how it flows" There are many regulars that go faithfully everyday and they are harmless. You pay first - fixed price $12 - I think (dessert is another $4.00 - worth trying once) Get your salad and soup, tea or water, and utensils/napkin. Ready now to sit where ever is available now. Once your done (I was told no seconds on starters) The go back to the soup salad area and ask the server for your main meal/plate. I have been there and the server will brought over the main plate (not exactly sure how that worked) It was Latino Enchiladas Wednesday (Taco too sometimes). Breakfast is good also. These pictures are lunch.

Marvellous vegan micro-biotic food. So soothing and comforting. The ambiance is wonderful and unique. I didn't take any pictures as I was busy shovelling down my food :)

They still only charge $12 for a huge, healthy meal whereas other restaurants have all raised prices. Amazing food--veggie tacos, ginger and sweet potato soup, great salad, several other sides. I'm going to have to become a regular.

Old meat-packing plant converted to mindfulness center and vegan cafeteria. Open every day of the year and serving fresh, vegan food without ever missing a beat. I love this place so much. If you're feeling unwell or ill at ease, mentally or physically, rejuvenate at Casa. The service is impeccable and the food is so good. With salad, soup, main course, and tea, the $12 dinner (tax/tip included) is a steal.

This place is a getaway. I've been here a handful of times now since I've discovered it. I'm so in love with the delicious food. You get your salad and soup, which are both so tasty and all made fresh in the open kitchen. Then you get your entree which is, equally as amazing. If you're ever in Austin, and want to try delicious, vegan tasty food, come to Casa De Luz. It's like a step into a mini getaway Amazonian jungle. Reminds me of a resort I once stayed in Yungas, Bolivia.
The desserts are also made so well. I don't feel guilty grabbing any. :)

Super amazing healthy yummy food. Which we had something like this in dallas. I love the surrounding, the prices is good. $12 we went on a Sunday. They had an awesome salad, the soup was so good. It was a veggie lentil soup and the main course was veggie tacos, rice been and kale, not your typical but so delicious. Plus dessert. So much food and so delicious.

Casa de Luz is an affordable, unpretentious, community-oriented place to eat and I always leave full and happy!

Wow! A friend brought me some takeout from Casa de luz today and I was blown away. The food is of very high quality, well prepared. I can't wait to try more of the menu. I had a delicious taco, rice, beans, collards?, soup and a delicious salad. I was blown away.

BEST place EVER. I cannot say enough about how much we all loved this experience. Warm, relaxing, enriching, and a place where you can eat healthy delicious food... and FEEL GOOD while doing I. Thank you CASA DE LUZ. Best thing I can say is how disappointed I am that this restaurant does not exist where I live.

Service is very lacking! Going down hill! Expensive lunch! Head cook on phone while we waited over 39 minutes for our lunch to be served! They forgot about us!

Great teas, salad, soup, and entree for $9 (breakfast), $12 lunch/dinner. No tipping allowed. Great, all natural, probiotic infused food that always leaves me feeling better than before I came. If you plan on ordering to go, bring your own to go containers

Well the food and desert both were unbelievably fresh and healthy. This isn't a typical restaurant at all. I would say it's an experience- calm ambience and wholesome earthy vegetarian food.

With that being said, I do need spice/salt/sugar in my food... all of that was missing.. but again it's different food! So all in all, it's must have one time experience atleast!

October 20, 2017 11:43

This is the best real wholesome type of food. I feel great every time I leave there just like food was intended to make you feel. The deserts are not knock you down sweet. They are subtle and won't give you a sugar rush. I wish all deserts would be like this. I never eat deserts except when I come here. This place is the best.

Whole food gluten free plant based eatery that leaves anyone feeling satisfied and with a happy soul. Best soul food and vegan food in Austin. Namaste

I'm just starting vegan-ism so take my opinion with a grain of salt. First sense after walking in the door: smells like asparagus pee. Sorry for that bit of info but yes. Not a great odor for a restaurant. Maybe it was just my senses going haywire.
Anyway; If it is a to go order, you will pay $.50 for the container, each.
No menu. If it is lunch, one option.
It was time efficient, all food is ready.
Total was $13.50 called "adult plate".
Meal was tasty and oddly interesting.

What is not to love? I was introduced to Casa de Luz more than 25 years ago now and I still love the food and the vibe here. They serve up a superb menu of macrobiotic goodies that are not only healthy, but tasty and creative as well. One price fits all. The school and kids playground in a semi-tropical jungle setting is a welcome calm that feeds the soul as well. Find it. You will love it!
