Huge choice of vegan options! - Edit
I was speaking to the owner who is vegetarian and he was telling me how he initially wanted it to just be vegetarian and vegan but a few meat and fish options had to be added as it wasn't financially viable to do this. That being said, there are a lot more vegetarian and vegan options than meat/fish options which is great to see!!
Read moreFor 2 people we got 7 dishes which was a lot of food so I'd say 5/6 would be a good amount for 2 people. The food was really good and I loved the Mexican style tapas. Everything that says vegetarian can be made vegan if you ask (except the cheese board).
While we had to wait a little while for the table, the service was amazing!! The owner seems to be doing everything himself (he's constantly running around) but he never seems stressed when he comes over to the table. He was great at checking if we needed anything else and asking how the food was and even had time for a chat as we were paying. I love supporting smaller businesses like this and I really encourage anyone to go here when visiting Gran Canaria!!
Pros: Owner was lovely , Love tapas, get to taste a lot of dishes, Great amount of vegan options
Cons: Wait for table, service was great though

So much choice! - Edit
Best vegan food found in a week in maspalomas. Most of the menu is vegan (or can be veganised). Very tasty and good range of beers including some 0%. Great service too.

Solid Options & Quality - Edit
Food was probably a 4/5 …. chick’n tacos were very tasty and the patatas bravas cooked to perfection. Service was lacking when we went. Polite and friendly but did take a very long time - I think they may have been short staffed when we went

Great food, lots of choice - Edit
Would have given it 5 stars, but the app doesn't let me cause it's not fully vegan. Restaurant has a menu that's about 70 % vegetarian, half of which is vegan. Wide selection of options, all tastes great! Also my non vegan friends we impressed

This is an absolute must!!! The food was absolutely stunning. The majority of the menu is vegan or adaptable. The vegan aioli was soooo good. The Sangria is Devine. The waiter was amazing, very welcoming and friendly. We will visit this place again.

Nice vegan (and vegetarian) tapas-style dining in relaxed atmosphere - Edit
An excellent edition to the growing number of restaurants in the area which really understand veganism. Many dishes are fully vegan, and many/all vegetarian dishes can be made vegan upon request. Restaurant also serves meat, which makes it an excellent place to go with non-veg friends/family. Owner(s) are very welcoming and friendly. Restaurants works with many whole-food ingredients like lentils (lentil stew) and chickpeas, but also some meat alternatives for chicken, beef etc.
Read moreDishes take some time to arrive, which means they are freshly cooked and hot when served. Excellent ‘city garden’-style outside dining, and more room inside.

Super lekker gegeten tijdens onze vakantie in januari. Vegetarisch eten is bijna niet te vinden in het oude deel van Maspalomas, dus El Saloon was echt een uitkomst en aangename verrassing. Buiten dat zijn het ontzettend lieve mensen!
