Restaurant has a separate vegan menu with lots of yummy options. My husband, the omni, had lots of choice too. Cava by the glass. Cool and interesting vibe. Friendly service.

Good vegan food, but expensive - Edit
I went to Amaltea looking for a vegetarian dinner. I asked for the vegan menu (as mentioned in other reviews here), and had enough options to choose from. We ordered some asparagus for 12€ as a starter, and when it arrived, I was a bit startled by the quantity: All we got were seven or eight stems plus some cherry tomatoes and salt. Enough for an appetizer, but probably not worth 12€, even though it was very tasty.
Read moreThe main dishes came in proper portions, but I'm afraid without the starter I wouldn't have been enough, either.
Overall, I liked the restaurant, but in my opinion they charge too much for their portions.
Pros: tasty, friendly staff, location
Cons: expensive, small portions

Would give 6 stars - Edit
First off in a city obsessed with meat this is the only restaurant with a separate vegan menu and they deserve some kudos for that alone. The food is spectacular. Very original, creative and ample. Got the leek appetizer that was pretty light except that it was helped by amazing bread and olives lol. Then the chickpea dish and the quinoa pumpkin dishes were super filling. Also it’s adorable.

Amazing vegan menu in Córdoba - Edit
We enjoyed an evening at Amaltea. The food was tasty and creative and the atmosphere was serene and beautiful. The service was outstanding; they took care to manage the number of diners so as to ensure good service. We highly recommend for vegan/ veg travelers.

À must-go-to in Córdoba! - Edit
My favourite place in Córdoba! This place deserves five stars even if it's not fully vegan. They have a whole vegan menu with many many choices and every dish is absolutely excellent. I will give a special mention to the Puerros, miso, tomate (Leaks with miso & tomato) and the Wok de Garbanzos (Chickpea wok) which is simply magnificent. The majority of ingredients are organic. The setting is really comfy and service is great. What more could you ask for? 
Read morePros: Whole extensive vegan menu, Nearly all organic , Great ambiance and service

An absolute gem! - Edit
Cordoba isn’t the easiest place to eat vegan but this place is a one of a kind exception with its extensive separate vegan menu and well thought out options with fresh flavours. I had the pasta with artichokes, truffle, rocket and pine nuts. I’m only sad we couldn’t visit again before we had to leave beautiful Cordoba.

It can be Challenging in Spain to find a vegan or vegetarian option. This restaurant is a oasis for dining options for vegetarians and vegans. The proprietor was friendly and the environment was comfortable.

Tasty vegan choices - Edit
Really good tasty vegan dishes based exclusively on veggies, so no meat substitutes of any kind nor vegan cheese available. They have a vegan menu which is actually vegetarian, so when ordering you need to specify vegan to the staff (for example quesadillas include dairy cheese, which is simply avoided if you want them vegan, same with dishes using dairy yoghourt).
Read moreThat said, the mains we ordered were super flavourful, with the sautéed chickpeas with kimchi as the absolute winner of the night.
Bad news (really bad IMO) is they serve foie, but unfortunately Córdoba is still kind of unfriendly for vegans so this place is one of the few choices available
Pros: Tasty dishes based exclusively on veggies, Nice location
Cons: They serve foie (!!!), Vegan menu is actually vegetarian, No meat nor pb cheese as alternative

Lovely food and a beautiful space - Edit
I went to Amaltea on my first night in Cordoba and I was instantly charmed by the bright decor and ambience of the place. They have a separate vegan menu which includes dishes like lasagne, burrito, Asian-inspired salads and pasta dishes. I had pasta with artichokes and white truffle sauce and it was delicious and beautifully presented. The portions are not massive, so if you're very hungry, order a starter or save room for dessert. The service was attentive and friendly. Definitely worth a visit if you're in Cordoba.

Be careful with the vegan menu - Edit
It’s great that this place has a vegan menu. Unfortunately, when I ordered a pasta dish from the vegan menu, it came covered in Parmesan cheese (despite no mention of this on the menu). The staff also seemed annoyed that I returned the dish and didn’t apologise for their mistake.
Read moreUp until this point the vibes were good and it’s a shame this let the place down.

Lots of options, cute place, great service! - Edit
Probably the most vegan-friendly place in Córdoba. Extensive separate vegan menu and interesting alcoholic and non alcoholic drink options.
Read moreAt first I gave it a 3/5 because I first ordered the lasagna, which was just vegetables with tomato sauce and some bready pasta-like layers, no vegan bechamel/cream or cheese. Tasted good but not something I would really enjoy with other better options. The staff saw I didn’t have much of it and offered to make me another dish, I chose the truffle and artichoke pasta which was delicious. Very kind of them and they were genuinely curious for feedback!

Consigliatissimo - Edit
A Córdoba non ci sono molti ristoranti con opzioni vegane.
Read moreQuesto, oltre ad essere uno dei pochi che c’è, ha tre menù diversi: normale, vegetariano e vegano.
Sono rimasta molto colpita dalla qualità dei piatti e dalla varietà delle opzioni vegane. Era tutto buonissimo e le porzioni erano molto grandi. Il ristorante non è grandissimo quindi è consigliato prenotare. Se siete vegani dovete farci un salto.
Pros: Varietà delle opzioni vegane, Qualità dei piatti

Separate vegan menu - Edit
This restaurant has a separate menu for vegans which was nice, lots of options (considering most places in Córdoba don’t have many options for vegans!).
Read moreI had beetroot mousse with crudités which was tasty and fresh, and the pasta with romanescu sauce, cherry tomatoes & basil - the sauce was too thick and heavy so I couldn’t finish the dish. The other pasta dish, with artichokes and truffle oil, smelled delicious.
Lovely staff and stylish interior.

Amazing vegan cuisine in Cordoba - Edit
Cordoba had my partner and I freaked out before arriving, as there are no vegan only restaurants in-town. After mulling over all of our options, we chose Amaltea because it had a vegan menu available online; we're so lucky -- this place has amazing food and an incredibly warm/beautiful ambience (we stayed for over 2 hours dining the night away). Two appetizers we loved: the grilled asparagus and the milhojas (little beet/avocado sandwiches with potatoes as the "bread"). Excellent service. One note: they offer reservations (the place was full when we were there) and if you use the WhatsApp number they give to message them earlier in the day, you should be fine getting a table for that evening. Awesome, awesome, awesome find.

I‘ll Come back - Edit
The quinoa lentils were fantistic! A bit fruity, light and cool - a good choice in this heat. On a second day, I had the leek with tomatoes (starter), which was gorgeous; the chickpeas with kimchi were not so much my taste. Still, it's great that there are so many new things to explore - I hope I can come back!
