This is the best and only fully vegan place around and for everyone who stays in Galicia or around there should pay a visit! We got a table last minute and enjoyed the wonderful menu.
Read moreWe had a 3 course menu packed with fresh and fruity vegan food.
We left fully satisfied for a reasonable price. The staff was also super friendly and responsive.
If we ever come back to the area we will visit again!
Pros: Concept, Food, Service

Reservation recommended! - Edit
We arrived on a Friday lunchtime but we didn’t have a reservation and sadly they couldn’t accommodate us. The friendly staff explained they only cook enough for each reservation to avoid food waste, which is a great philosophy. It was very popular and the food looked amazing! We will come back another time. 4* for friendly staff and no-waste philosophy but can’t rate the food as sadly unable to try.

(They also happen to have the most amazing dessert I've ever tasted - orange and port wine pudding.)
Thank you 🤍

Best vegan restaurant ever - Edit
Super positive experience. The food. The music. The environment makes the perfect place to eat.
Read moreThey care a lot about the ingredients that they use to cook as well as the food waste. Also they try to reduce as much as posible by having reservations and they make a bit more for walk ins.
You can see who cooks and how since it’s an open kitchen. Highly recommended
Pros: Taste, You can see that they know what they do, Nutritional full fills
Cons: Perhaps the location but is still walkable

Delicious affordable vegan food - Edit
Very impressed with their food, had a three course meal for only €11 and everything was delicious.
Read moreNote the menu changes everyday and they usually only accept reservations to make sure they do not waste any food (and were all booked out from half an hour after I arrived), but luckily they always make a little more for an extra person and that person was me today😄
Pros: Delicious , Cheap , They do not waste food
Cons: You usually have to book in advance

Delicious but expensive - Edit
The staff was super nice, the food was delicious but it was ≈40€ for 4 people, and with only one desert!
Read morePros: 100% vegan, Super gorgeous
Cons: Expensive
OrelhadElefante
Hello 😊 we are glad that you enjoy the food 🙏
Read moreAbout the price, the menu (soup, food and tee) costs 8,50€. And everything that we prepare is 100% organic. So actually the price it was 8,5€ by person + a water + the deseart.
We know that it is not a price accessible to everyone but when we use everything organic there is no way that we can work with lower prices.
Thank you again. Hope to see you soon 💚🌱

Excellent! - Edit
Set two course meal. Everything was delicious (and good for you!). We also opted for a dessert - choice of three options. Our table tried all of them. Each one very, very good. No refined sugar.

Comida boa e staff muito prestável - Edit
Fui ao Orelha d'Elefante durante uma pequena viagem em que ia passar o fim de semana ali perto. Convém reservar, o restaurante é muito procurado. Tem esplanada. Funciona com prato do dia e, ao sábado, há dois pratos e duas entradas para escolher. Eu tinha reservado take away mas, depois de chegar, tive vontade de ficar. Tinha o meu cão comigo e a esplanada estava reservada mas, mesmo assim, deixaram-nos comer no interior com o cão. Gostamos tanto que voltamos no dia seguinte! Destaco o pudim, que estavam a fazer pela primeira vez para o público e era delicioso! O restaurante é muito ecológico, as toalhas do WC são de pano, os guardanapos também e pedem, sempre que possível, para o cliente levar o seu próprio recipiente para o take away.
Read morePros: Qualidade e sabor da comida, Ambiente calmo, restaurante bonito e eco, Simpatia e disponibilidade

A hidden gem in Ponte de Lima for vegans! - Edit
Went for lunch but didn’t have a reservation (they only work with reservations in order to cook the necessary amount of food, to avoid food waste) but the staff arranged a table for us! Soup, main dish, tea and dessert - everything was delicious and at a very good price.
