Clear menu, not great food - Edit
I thought it was great that they had a full separate page for a vegan menu and the staff were aware of veganism. The food was a bit disappointing though, both the vegan spinach pie and the cauliflower with sweet potatoes dishes were lacking flavor and neither were filling. They both could have used a sauce or some seasoning. The cauliflower felt old, it was soft and not very warm. I'd recommend choosing other dishes.

Fantastic!!! - Edit
They have an entire vegan menu. Someone else posted the picture. They accommodated our group of 15 Instantly. service was friendly. It was awesome to be able to pay separately!!! Terrific experience. The quinoa salad was absolutely the best salad I’ve ever had.

Gemma is a Hidden Gem - Edit
Charming and cozy with a separate vegan menu including quinoa salad, vegan (Beyond) meatballs, vegan soups, vegan club sandwich, linguine with meatballs, vegan tiramimmouse with hazelnut and more. Good quality food, fresh and delicious. Full bar. I would give it five stars but it has a full menu for your meat eating companions. Excellent service. Off the busy main drag with good music and even better vibe.

Good, but a little bland - Edit
We had the fried potatoes and they we‘re really tasty but kind of bland if you don‘t eat them with the onions. The club sandwich was also very sweet because of the caramelized onions. I feel like they put in some syrup or sugar so I‘d only recommend it to people who like sweet main dishes. It was a really big portion though so if you‘re really hungry I‘d recommend it. My friend had the roasted cauliflower but it was also pretty bland too. Also the portion was too small for the price you pay. Maybe we didn‘t choose the right meals but it was fine. The staff was really really nice tho. I think the burgers are also a good choice. They looked really good😄

Some good food, some bad - Edit
We ordered the Zucchini noodeles Aglio e olio and the light Club (Sandwiches with Fries). The noodeles were worse than expected, little Taste and very hard.
Read moreThe Sandwiches were very good though.
Lastly a tip: If you are going to order smoothies, tell them to make it a little less sweet than normal.
Pros: Many vegan options
Cons: Zucchini noodles, Slow waiter

Go Vegan No Vegan - Edit
I'm a Vegan food blogger and I've reviewed many restaurants, I've been to Gemma Bistrot and I found it bad. The service is very slow, the music is blaring while you eat. the dishes presented are INDECENT, potatoes and onions were frozen, the zucchini spaghetti should be served cold instead they were hot stews with a flavor I don't like, the vegan omelette did not taste like omelette and was not pleasant on the palate. Approximate dishes, little care, most of the dishes seen on Happy Cow was not the one served. Everyone goes to drink, hardly anyone to dine. Not recommended.
Read moreCons: Service , Option vegan , Music strong

Elegant bistro - Edit
This is an elegant yet relaxed place with friendly waiters and a separate vegan menu. We had a salad, pumpkin soup, and tiramimousse…all was good (as the previous reviewer noted, the pumpkin soup was a bit peppery, but I liked it).

Many options - Edit
We tried the pumpkin soup, the quinoa salad, and the linguine with vegetables. I enjoyed the pumpkin soup, my daughter thought it had too much pepper in it. The salad was absolutely amazing and I was able to take half of it home. Unfortunately, the pasta did not do as well. I was expecting a traditional marinara, and there were spices in there that just was not expecting. I think Cinnamon. I didn’t send it back because it was my choice but we didn’t eat it. The restaurant was very accommodating and provided us with a free tiramisu dessert which my daughter enjoyed.

Nothing special - Edit
Went to Gemma based on some really good reviews on here, but wasn’t particularly impressed by the menu options or the food itself. The atmosphere was nice (nice location and outside seating) and the staff very friendly. But based on the food I wouldn’t go back.

Best vegan menu in Naxos - Edit
Lovely outdoor eatery with dedicated, and diverse vegan menu. The staff were friendly, the environment was cozy and chill and the variety of food fit the needs of the family. My toddler got the tomato sauce and vegan meatball linguine and I ordered the club sandwich. The whole family shared the large and delicious tiramisu dessert.

Charming restaurant with very friendly staff - Edit
We stumbled across this restaurant near the harbour in Naxos quite early in the morning, and had a delicious breakfast (chickpea scramble and a sandwich, as well as a couple of coffees). We liked it so much (and we were so happy to find a restaurant with plenty of vegan food) that we came back later for lunch. The staff were lovely, and so welcome and friendly. Highly recommended.
