Amazing Food And Service

Currently on holiday and am quite bored with the all inclusive offerings at our hotel. Both my husband and I are vegan and so used the Happy Cow app to look for somewhere that offers vegan items. The reviews were really good so off we went.
Received a warm welcome and the waiter went through the vegan options for us.
Food was absolutely delicious and the staff were so nice. Highly recommend dining here. Nice sized portions and great price.

Pros: Delicious Food, Warm Welcome, Helpful

Fantastic vegan curry

Absolutely impeccable service and food. Very nice server went to check if they could make me chapati without ghee and he did onion bhaji and mixed veg jalfrezi and veg biriani all cooked without ghee. Very big portions, very reasonable prices. I had forgotten to take photos sorry.

Good food

I had here the Bhindi Bhaji dish with pulau rice.
The main vegetable in here is called 'Ladyfinger'. I have never heard from but it tasted good and had a nice bite and was made crunchy. I could also indicate the spicy sharpness as I like hot and spicy food. There may be more vegan options on the card and also vegan starter/dessert and non-alcoholic beer. As most restaurants are closed in December, Indian restaurants are open and affordable.

Pros: Good food, unique vegetable, Friendly staff, Open in December!

Cons: No vegan starter/dessert, No non-alcoholic beer

Lovely food and good price

The food is really nice and authentic. Waiters are very friendly and knowledgeable about vegan options. Portion sizes are good (one rice dish would be perfect for 2)

The location is central but not along the main Old Town strip which we very much appreciated.

Pros: Lovely food, Good price, Knowledgeable waiters

Amazing food!

Amazing vegan curry dinner! The staff members all spoke great English and knew exactly what dishes were vegan (most the vegetarian curries).
With so much choice, I ended up going with the onion bhajis for starters and an Aloo Gobi curry for my main with pilau rice.
10/10 service, and despite no vegan dessert option, I got a free compliment shot when paying the bill!

Lovely Indian restaurant

There is a separate menu section for vegetarian. Most items are vegan and staff are knowledgeable on veganism and were able to help us pick. We had the vegetable pakora, Bombay aloo (as someone previously said this was really good), Chana masala, rice and roti. Everything was tasty and very reasonably priced which was good as most places we have been spending way more for a meal for 2. Bombay aloo was our favourite.

Gorgeous Indian food

Don’t let the outside of this restaurant deceive you. We walked up and weren’t sure because there was no one inside and it was off the beaten track.

There were so many vegan options, and the food was really good. The staff were very knowledgeable and showed me which dishes were vegan.

I really recommend this place!

Nice food!

Many vegan options and helpful staff. The chickpea and bombay aloo are very tasteful. I don’t know the names of the starters anymore, except samosa, but they were very nice too.

Lovely Indian food!!

Highly recommend visiting here when in Albufeira. Separate veggie menu and the staff are so friendly and able to point out which is vegan (all of the curries bar the korma and paneer curries) I highly recommend the bombay aloo😊 much better than Clay Oven with a quarter of the price tag, friendlier staff and you don't have to wait an hour for a table!

Maybe best indian in Albufeira?

Discovered spice lounge and jaipur are owned by same people so had same menu. However the staff at spice lounge were much more helpful and friendly. I would even say that spice lounge food was much better than clay oven.

Pros: Helpful staff, Tasty food

Extreme friendly and affordable!

Very nice place, with extremely nice people working there! There are 15 vegetarian options and 10 of them have the option to be vegan. So 10 vegan options roti and/or chapati. But you have to ask the waiter which are vegan, but there are very friendly in helping. Also it is very cheap and the portions are quite large. The photo below is the chickpea with rice and chapati.

Pros: Very cheap + large portions, Friendly staff, 10 +/- vegan options

Cons: Difficult to find without using maps on phone

Good and affordable!

With the vegan options not labelled, staff will ask you upon ordering whether you want your dish in the vegetarian or the vegan version. The Aloo Chana is tasty, and in general, the place is rather affordable.

Great options

The menu doesn't state which options are vegan, but our server double checked if we were with what we had ordered. He confirmed everything we had was definitely vegan and adapted our poppadom sauces to be fully vegan. Great service.

Chana masala and coconut rice were gorgeous, and the vegetable pakoras were really tasty.

Tucked away an a quieter part of the old town

I would challenge any meat eater to try thre vegan options here and then say vegan food is tasteless and boring. It's delicious!

Pros: Lots of vegan options, Very tasty, Can be made spicier or milder, as you like
