Amazing value, okay food

Large variety of tapas and all vegan. The tapas ranged from delicious (veggie balls) to only so so. Friendly service and amazing value. Good for a quick bite.

Outstanding!!!

Visiting from the UK and so happy we found this place! Tapas style food, we had 8 tapas between 4 of us and was just about right / slightly too much, 6-7 probably would have been fine.
The food was excellent, super tasty and lots of variety. Also fantastic service from the team, especially the gentlemen that served us.
If you’re in Malaga you have to visit this place!!!

Pros: 100% vegan, Super tasty, Well priced

Excelente experiencia

Hemos ido dos veces y sin duda repetiremos. Toda la comida que hemos probado estaba increible y el camarero siempre es muy agradable y atento. No os podéis perder las albóndigas en salsa de almendras, están deliciosas! Las gambas al pilpil, el pescado al limón y la ensaladilla rusa también están buenísimas. Se encuentra al lado de la Plaza de la Merced en pleno centro de Málaga y muy cerca de una heladería con opciones veganas increibles. 100% recomendable, aunque hay pocos asientos asi que si podéis mejor reservad con antelación.

Friendly vegan place

The place is super friendly and the menu is very rich. However, most dishes tends to taste the same, especially the fish, which I wouldn't recommend. The Russian salad is great and so is the tortilla. My partner also enjoyed the loaded fries and the meatballs. We went there a couple of times and the atmosphere was always lovely. It's worth a visit.

Pros: Cheap, Different portions sizes

Cons: Food is too salty

Amazing

They have very good tapas! Be sure to try the fried cheese, it's amazing. It is not a really big restaurant so be sure to reserve a table. I would suggest to order 6 tapas for two people.

Totally overrated

Totally disappointed, worst restaurant I've been to in Andalucia. Food doesn't taste good at all, many options but all of them were kind of awful honestly. We ordered many tapas and only shrimps were ok, but not amazing anyways. I would definitely recommend to go some place else. Staff is not really friendly, overall bad vibes.

Pros: All vegan, Cheap

Cons: Not good, Not friendly staff

So much choice

Lots of great options to choose from, a mix of Spanish classics and less traditional options. Really friendly staff and a great location - right in the centre where everything’s happening.

Pros: Plenty of options, Good location , Friendly staff

100% Vegan Tapas off the beaten track

We saw the restaurant on the app and thought that we would try when on holiday.

Of note, the menu is in Spanish and no English versions are available. Knowing that everything is 100% vegan allowed us to pick freely from what we could understand.

Food was flavoursome and tasty!

Staff were incredibly helpful and were happy to listen to my attempts of ordering in Spanish lol

Pros: Lots of options , Low cost , Seats inside and out

Comidas veganas increíbles!

Gran variedad de comida nueva, todo vegano.
Pedimos "gambas" al pilpil, patatas bbq con "bacon" "pez limón" y pulguita de "crestita".
La mayonesa y el alioli era increíble.
Nos encantó y no nos esperábamos que la comida tuviera esa textura tan parecida al pescado o a la carne.
Repetiremos seguro😊

Pros: Todo vegano, Calidad-precio estupenda

Great Vegan tapas with tad too many fries

Great option for everyone to try Spanish tapas with wide vegan selection. Seems to be favored by locals and is very authentic. Dishes are very varied from vegan chorizo to patatas bravas and vegan shrimp. Majority of tapas are served with fries so by the end of it u might be little fed up.

Pros: Affordable

Cons: Too many fries dishes

Muy buena experiencia

La vegana taperia renueva el concepto de taperia tradicional llevandola al veganismo y de una manera verdaderamente satisfactoria. Este restaurante centrico de Málaga es una maravilla tanto por la atención, como la variedad en los platos, la presentación, y el parecido de estos a los que intentan imitar. Si bien hay algunos más conseguidos como pueden ser las lagrimitas de pollo y los pinchitos y algunos menos pero siguen teniendo buen gusto como es el pulpo a la gallega todos ofrecen una buena experiencia gastronómica.

Great place for a light bite of vegan food in the heart of Malaga

Just 200m away from Nona’s who do the best vegan ice cream ever, this small bistro does some great tapas. Go and have a bite and finish with a great ice cream across the square.

Pros: Great tapas, Lots of choice, Nice place for a quick beer and a bite

Cons: Food is a bit heavy if you don’t do oil

Great food nice staff, but lacking ambiance

The place was easily found and, as we arrived early, we got a place outside. It was a small table but the bright, color-changing RGB LED lights reminded me more off a gaming-PC than of a restaurant. Especially the food sometimes looked weird in that light, even though it looked delicious when the it shined in another color. Sadly, the menu was only in Spanish. The lovely waiter gave us his phone that translated the website, but many dishes still did not appear in the English language, so we had to translate each dish one by one. As the waiter did only know a little English, we had to resort to the translation app again to let him know we had someone with a nut allergy among us. The taste and texture was very close to real shrimps and seafood. The chicken-replacement tasted a bit different, but still quite tasty overall. The veggieburgers were clearly made from beans and had no taste of beef, but that's a positive thing in my book. We had the ciders, of which the peach cider was probably the best. Any fancy drinks like mock- or cocktails are not served. All in all, would visit again but would then eat inside and with better Spanish knowledge.

Pros: Great seafood alternatives, Friendly Staff

Cons: Ambiance, Small English-knowledge

The best.

Relatively easy to find, though it is a little small from the outside, and quite central (nicely tucked into a smaller, quieter street than the main ones though- so not too busy to enjoy!). Instantly met with wonderful service, and was very easy to order (we ordered mostly in Spanglish- mostly English). Waiter was very polite and considerate and communication was great.

Drinks were quick to come and food followed swiftly too. Had tapas-sized portions of multiple dishes that just kept getting better and better. I have never have a vegan ‘fish’ that I could describe without just saying ‘yes, I guess it is fishy’- this was somewhere between a wonderful sol or elevated cod; unmistakably white fish with a glorious texture and flavour. We also had both prawn dishes, but a personal favourite was the garlic ones- with the crunch of the ‘tail’ and mimicry of the sweetness down to a T.

Whilst I do not have the knowledge to be able to comment on the authenticity, I do believe in it being a great representation of traditional Spanish cuisine. Perfectly filling and cannot sing it’s praises enough. Would 100% recommend.


Additionally- whilst this may not appeal specifically to many who read this review the toilet flush is lovely and quiet (I mention this as an autistic individual, it’s something that can be pretty daunting to those sensitive to noise).

Pros: Everything is vegan, Service was incredible and friendly, Great portion size options

Tapas is finally Vegan

I tried the chicken bites, the chorizo, the cheese plate, the tortilla, the patatas bravas, the creamed soup, etc...
They were all very tasty and surprisingly light on the stomach.

Pros: Lots to choose from , Super friendly service, Reasonable prices

Cons: Small space, might be full 🤞

Una opción excelente

La carta es 100% vegana y tiene una inmensa variedad. Son tapas clásicas que han sido veganizadas. Está todo muy rico, sobre todo las patas gordiveganas.

Pros: 100% vegano., Probar el "chorizo" es imprescindible.

Cons: Demasiadas patatas fritas en todos los platos
