Very delicious food, especially the mushrooms pil pil were super great. Very friendly staff and cozy atmosphere. Definitely a recommendation for anyone looking for vegan/vegetarian Spanish food
Great for vegetarian food lovers. The items were prepared fresh and tasted nice. Must visit when in Malaga.
The restaurant serves really vegan variations of croquettes, empanadas, skewers and meatballs. The garnishes are also unique and complement the dishes well. I really liked the non alcoholic sangria! The staff are nice and service is good.
We had very tasty and varied food, everything was very delicious. The restaurant is in a very good location, the atmosphere is pleasant. The service is nice and fast. The only drawback is that there was no dessert or coffee when we were there.
Divino! Highly recommended! the mushrooms are a must have! Will be dreaming of them
Authentic Spanish restaurant with great vegan options. Good sized portions of food, all freshly made and extremely tasty. We sat outside and it was great watching the world go by. Food arrived in good time. Good pricing for the size of the portions. Friendly and helpful staff. Lovely to see the place busy. Only one vegan dessert option. Would like to see more.
The food was delicious, I had a vegan platter with meatballs in Ragu sauce, seitan kebab, carrot burger, it came with 3 sides, a delicious coleslaw, cous cous and ratatouille. Service was great to.
Stumbled upon this place after heading into the city in search of some more varied vegetarian options. We received a wonderfully warm welcome. The food was well presented, hot and most importantly, delicious! A very cosy atmosphere inside and out. Would recommend for any lovers of veggie/vegan food.
