Good food with fair price

They offer vegan foods for a very good price. Usually the menu contains at lest 2 vegan options for each course. Make sure you order the vegan one or veganized. The food is good as well the desserts.

Eat quick!

The food was quite nice, but it was such a rushed experience. The set menu was 4 courses. At one point the waitress attempted to take the plate when I wasn't even half way through and it'd been on the table about 3 minutes. The couple next to me were being pushed to order the next course, and were having plates whisked away and the next course dropped off while one of them was still eating. The eye roll showed they weren't impressed either. In fairness, there was a queue outside, but I wouldn't have eaten there if I'd known it'd be so rushed. At 15 euro, it was reasonably priced.

Pros: The food, The quality , The location

Cons: Being so rushed, Poor service - spraying cleaner near my food

Affordable and popular lunch place

Randomly stopped by for a good lunch and this place was great. It is very popular with a locals so I had a wait a little. You can choose your dishes from the provided options and menu items are clearly marked. Food tastes great and was filling, nothing fancy but a great option if you are nearby

4 courses, 12 euros, what an amazing find!

Arc Iris was amazing. I had a four course meal, some type of cheesy romesco salad, vegetable and mushroom paella, this Cajun tofu and peppers that was to die for, and for dessert mascarpone and figs. Tasted like something I would get at a super nice restaurant, and it was only 12 eu! Wish I lived in Barcelona and I’d be a regular😄everything I had was vegan except the mascarpone. They only had a few dishes that were not vegan just vegetarian

Pros: Delicious, Affordable, Fast service

Affordable and good quality menu in a centric spot

The place is very centric and usually crowded by locals who go there during their lunch break. Food is great (3 dishes dessert) and the service is usually quick and effective. An affordable daily menu (the kind of which are increasingly rare in Barcelona).

Menú vegetariano asequible y céntrico

Pequeño restaurante que solo ofrece servicios de comidas. Esta muy cerca de la sagrada familia y ofrece un menú de tres platos con postre por solo 12 euros. Todo el menú es vegetariano y cuenta con varias opciones veganas. Todo estaba buenísimo y muy buenas cantidades.

Quick and nice

I hadn't read the reviews, so was a bit surprised with the speed of the service (fast! 1 min after sitting down you're already eating) and the absence of the question what you'd like to drink (I think there's only the water on the table??).

If you wish a long, chill brunch, this might not be your place (the ambience isn't 'fast food' like, though).
Meals sometimes seem a bit simple, but are actually tasteful and of course for that price (€11 - 4 courses) super nice!

Arc Iris is Amazing!

My mind is still blown that I got four courses for only 11 euros—not to mention four courses this good! The food was so creative and so beautifully presented. Even options I was skeptical about turned out to be tasty. And I came with two others so between the three of us I got to try almost everything; it was all great. The day I went the menu was almost entirely vegan. Also enjoyed how friendly everyone was, despite us being American tourists! The owner is kind and charming.

Simple food done right!

In my experience, vegan/vegetarian restaurants try to go the extra mile and they make their food a bit too complicated (quinoa-sweet potato burgers with alfalfa blah blah blah). This restaurant offers a three-course meal + dessert composed of simple yet very tasty and comforting food. It was the first time I tried a restaurant like this and I loved it. The service was really attentive and food arrived in no time. In addition, the price is really affordable at 11 euros the whole menu. Highly recommended and hopefully I can come back soon!

Pros: Great service, When I went they had whole vegan menu, Simply great comfy vegan food

Such a friendly place for a lunch

The owner knows everyone and is always friendly, standing at the door, having a chat with his customers. The oldest vegetarian restaurant in town serves a daily menu for 12 euro with a few courses incl bread and drinks. There are always vegan options. The food is simple and basic but healthy and tasty. Some staff speak English.

Cons: Not 100% vegan
