No longer doing vegan!

No longer vegan☹️!!
We went today to be told they were no longer doing vegan food as they said said there wasn't enough demand.
Looked great in the reviews, what a shame.
Disappointed.

Fully vegan

Nice to see a vegan place here. Pleasant place, nice staff, but the menu is a bit thin. They have mainly tapas and from main dishes only pizzas and salad. If you want other food, I think you can order it in advance with reservation.
We wanted a pizza, but they didn't have cheese on that day. I know that you don't need cheese to make a good pizza, so we still ordered it. It was really good, only downside is that there was a lot of oil on it (I think olive). If you like your pizza drowning in oil, that's fine, but I'd like a choice over that (offer oil on side).
Oh, and they have also croissants and the one filled with chocolate is amazing.
Overall good experience and I think we'll come back while we're here.

Great place

Great restaurant with a lot of options! Had aome tapas and a pizza. Finished with a huge chunk of apple cake.

Super friendly staff, nice prices.

Only downside was that there were no high chair. Hard to really enjoy the food with a 1 year old struggling on your lap (therefore one star less). Ikea is nearby, get one😉

Pros: Superb tapas, Super friendly

Cons: No high chair

Brilliant new restaurant

Lovely staff who recommended nice tapas- I had sweet pizzas (amazing idea!), garlic mushrooms and the papas bravas. My partner had the pasta of the day which was a spaghetti in a tomato sauce with olives. We also had some bread to share. Delicious food and tasty cocktails too. All the food ,2 beers and 2 cocktails 36€. We will be back!

Pros: All vegan options, Great outdoor seating, Lovely staff

Cons: Some dishes not available (probably had been busy)

Everything vegan, so tasty

Lovely small restaurant with a great vegan menu. We went for the vegan tapas and they were good, especially the eggplant with spinach and cashew creme with vegan parmesan. But if you want something else, they also have vegan burgers, pizza's and pasta dishes. The staff was very nice and food came quick, prices very affordable and they even offered a limoncello shot with the bill.

Incredible food, wonderful staff.

Absolutely lovely restaurant with an outdoor platform and inside seating. The staff were so friendly I'd happily stay all day, and the food was absolutely brilliant - by far the best I've had in Teneriffe. Very reasonable pricing, and a small point but even the bathroom is lovely and clean which I think is worth a mention. Can't wait to come back 😊

Pros: Fully Vegan with a varied cuisine to choose from, Incredible food, Staff are lovely

wow

Porco Dio, that was tasty! We had the Lasagna and the Maccaroni, it was 100% Awesome. Small Card 100% vegan. Best Place to be in Americas…

Update: we went there plenty of Times and tried almost everything on the Menu. Everything was really Exceptional and really mouthwatering. As a Protip: ask if there is a special Meal of the Day (not on the Card) - we had a wonderful vegan Carbonara and Tortelli with Sweet Potato.

Service is perfect and Elisa does a great job😄- so does Davide in the Kitchen.

Its located in a quite buzzy Part of Playa de las Americas but still manages to be laid back and not loud or hectic at all. Like a Oasis. We‘d love to come back if we travel to Tenerife again.

Great vegan food

We spent a nice evening at Pura Vida and had a cocktail as well as some food. You have to look out for the place as it is not on Google Maps. They have a small menu including pasta, pizza, a burger and salads/bowls. You can choose from a variety of sauces. I would recommend the 'bowl de saludables". The prices are not expensive and the staff is very friendly.

Pros: Only vegan food, Reasonable prices, Friendly staff

Cons: Hard to find (not on Google Maps)

Excellent but hard to find

The food was very good and the staff was friendly but the place was hard to find. It's not on google maps and the hyperlink on instagram doesn't work. It's located next to Yolo Sport Bar.
I got the vegan pizza and my S/O got the burger. The pizza was very good and the burger was excellent, it had a surprisingly good vegan "bacon". We also shared the apple pie with pistacio icecream and it was lovely.
Would eat here again, gave it 4 stars because it was hard to find.

Pros: Very good food, Very good service

Cons: Location not on google maps

Lovely find

The staff are really friendly - the best customer service I've had on the holiday. All the food is delicious and really good value for money. The coffee here is also much better than elsewhere - they actually use barista oat milk. The potatoes are a highlight! Strongly recommend.

Pros: Great food / value, Best coffee of the holiday, Amazing customer service

Cons: Menu could be larger, Address on Google wasnt correct

Delicious

Happy to find only 10 days ago opened place. It has great inside and outside area. Waitresses are helpful and food is tasty. We had yogurt bowl with granola and fruits, canary potatoes and pasta- all very tasty. Also got half avocado for our 1 year old. Highly recommend to try it out 😉 The directions in google might be misleading it is just before Tigotan if you are heading to the beach.
