What a meal! - Edit
To start the staff were impeccable! Full of joy good vibe! Than the food was delicious! Balanced! Made with love, hearth and intelligence. Their vegan version of tiramisu it was mind-blowing the mousse was spongy, fluffy, light, fat and sweet like a real mascarpone mousse! Well done! You don't need to make 50 different dishes without flavour like other many restaurants! You just need to make a few but well done! Thank you for the experience!

Best food in Adeje - Edit
Best food we had in Tenerife and that’s coming from vegans and non vegans . We went for two dinners and 1 lunch in a week which says it all . Staff really care about what they do and all the food is lovely and fresh , bought at a local market on a daily basis.

Best meal in Tenerife - Edit
Fresh and tasty food. We went twice in the evening and had amazing meals. 2 or 3 course with so much fresh vegetables. With a few non-vegans raving about the food they received.

They are usually fully booked, especially now with them closing for a couple of weeks and March 25th being their last day open. Maybe the empty tables you saw were already booked and there wasn't enough time to be seated until the party that booked would arrive?

We apologize for any inconvenience you may have experienced. As you have surely noticed, we do not have many tables, and for this reason, we strongly recommend reservations on every social media and website. Clearly, if we told you there was no room, it's because the tables you saw "free" were reserved for other customers. The fact that you were told there would be a one-hour wait for take-away is because, evidently, that was the wait time. Unfortunately, we do not have a separate kitchen for take-away; there is only one cook, and priority is given to serving the tables. For this reason, sometimes we do not offer take-away at all. The advice is to reserve, not just with us, but everywhere. Warm regards.

The patio is nice and quiet and the staff was super friendly. I had beetroot carpaccio and tiramisu and the dessert was the best tiramisu I‘ve ever had. It‘s not a cheap place to eat, but definitely worth it!

Amazing Italian Food - Edit
Lovely people and lovely food. Definitely one of the highlights of our holiday! We had caprese salad to share, the very nice paella and the special which was a delicious courgette risotto. The service was friendly and fast and the dessert was incredible, so nice to be able to have a vegan tiramisu and possibly the best cheesecake I’ve ever eaten. We also had a free shot of limoncello each which was delicious. Definitely recommend to anyone visiting Tenerife!!

Delicious - Edit
Tried the watermelon carpaccio, lasagna and truffle burger. The lasagna was not my favorite, I prefer them more cheesy but still very good! The watermelon carpaccio was phenomenal and felt scarily real. My boyfriend loved the burger, he said it was the best one he ever had!! I liked the burger too, but I think I would prefer the cheeseburger.
Read moreCouldn’t leave Tenerife without trying the double cheeseburger so we came back. I surprisingly did prefer the truffle one more. Something about the cheeseburger sauce wasn’t my favorite. But it’s still a really delicious burger!!!

Burger:
Read moreI loved the Truffle Beyond Burger. In my past 10 years as a vegan and loads of different beyond burgers this one was standing out. The truffle sauce and the shitake mushrooms made it feel luxurious and really changed the taste. Furthermore often beyond patties are way smaller than the bread, resulting in meatless burgers on the sides and a chunk of beyond in the middle. Here they had it smashed so it filled out the bread. The cheese was also great.
Lasagna:
I think it had too little bechamel sauce. Whilst the tomato sauce was perfect the lasagna lacked the cheesieness.
The watermelon starter was great but lacked some base. Like a bit of bread with olive oil or so.
In total great experience.

One of the best burgers I’ve ever tasted 🥵 - Edit
The food, the drinks and the service is absolutely spot on. Would highly recommend paying a visit if you’re in Tenerife. We went twice in two days and the food was perfect both times. The lasagne is great, as are the fajitas, and the truffle mayo burger is 10/10. My partner and I ordered one to take away and share, we added bacon, cheese and an extra patty, and it was insane 🤤

The best vegan Italian food ever 💚 - Edit
One of the best vegan restaurants ever! If you’re into Italian food you will love this place. They offer a wide variety of traditional Italian dishes (such as lasagna, gnocchi), delicious burgers, poké bowls and fajitas. Deserts are unbelievably good (try their tiramisu!) 😍 and the staff couldn’t be nicer. 5/5!

Abbiamo cenato in due. Ottimi piatti vegani della tradizione italiana e non, con ingredienti di qualità e per lo più di autoproduzione. Consigliatissima la caprese (ottima la mozzarella veg di loro produzione con olio al basilico). Super lo smash burger! Porzioni abbondanti. Non si va via con la fame.

The holy grail tiramisu! - Edit
If given up on finding a decent vegan tiramisu but this restaurant has it! Starters and mains were all fine, very nicely presented. I thought my burrito was a bit lacking (more of a light lunch) compared to the delicious lasagne my wife had. Nice to eat outside but it is set in a very 00s shopping center. We picked a white wine but it was more of an orange one (so not as nice).

Excellent food - Edit
This is a small restaurant/ cafe inside a shopping centre. It is open two evenings per week up to 10 pm. We booked but think we would have been ok if we hadn't . There was a steady trickle of customers. As a family of three vegan and three vegetarian, It's fantastic to find places where we can be sure the food is vegan and where we can choose something off the menu. Between us we had the classic paella, negra paella, beyond burger, gnocchi, fajitas, tiramisu, cheesecake. Food was very tasty, piping hot, well presented and was served quickly by the friendly waiter . The tiramisu was excellent. It was more expensive than the other places we ate (hence four stars not five) but definitely somewhere to eat at least once whilst visiting the area. It's not too difficult being a family of vegan/vegetarians in Tenerife with there being a few places to try that are fully vegan and vegetarian......however if there was just one vegan in the group it would be a lot harder as I can see the main restaurants are full of meat with most not offering even one vegan option.

Also ate here, the food was superb. The paella Nègra was really nice and I could have eaten more. Great friendly service and a very relaxed atmosphere. The chefs were both interested in our reactions to the food and waved as we left. A good restaurant that deserves a visit.

I want to update my review. Since April this business has been owned by new owners and there are no my favorite dishes anymore. I just wrote my opinion in one of the comments in this app about my apologies that there are no famous dishes in their menu anymore and they blocked me on Instagram😓.... It's a bit pitty that new owners don't accept different opinions. I think we live in a free world and we have our rights and freedoms to express our point of view about everything. 🌍 It's really strange that they blocked my Instagram account for commenting and so on. I am really confused about that. It's doesn't goes well with peaceful and open-minded vegan lifestyle 🌱🙏💚

Hi Amber, as I already replied to you privately, no one has blocked you on Instagram, I really don't understand where your comment comes from.
Read moreyou came to our restaurant demanding other people's menu, we changed the menu because we want to bring our idea of cuisine, not that of others. It is our restaurant, we don't start making other people's dishes just because you want it.
you haven't tried ANY dish on our menu (just the caprese that was the only dish of the old menú) , when you came you demanded special treatment even though we didn't know you. We believe that relationships with customers are built over time, if you had special treatment with the old owners it's not our problem, we will not make other people's dishes just for you. we are very sorry for these comments, we accept every feedback but from someone who has really tried our dishes not from someone who is just mad about us changing the menu.

We have reported your comments and I hope they will be removed. you were both rude, both personally and privately. but above all you Vegan Blackburn, who wrote that you gave us a star for not having the paper menu when it was a lie, given that we have the paper menu and it was also shown to you! Rudeness is not welcome in our establishment. we're just sorry that there are people like you, full of hate, who can't wait to destroy people who are giving their souls for their restaurant. shame on you
