Full vegan tasting menu

We loved the fact they had a full complete vegan tasting menu, including starters. Appetizers, main and desserts. For each course they had at least a couple of options.
Everything was fresh and very delicious.

Pros: Watermelon, greens, and vegan feta cheese , Chocolate with popcorn crunch , Entire vegan menu was GF too

Cons: Each dish is small, but there are many plates,

An almost excellent restaurant

I'd actually like to give this slightly less than 4 stars. They have a really great vegan selection, that's also well marked in the menu. Some really inventive dishes.

The starting bread was really good, and included some very flavourful purées. My entrée featured some of the best tofu I've ever had, paired with fried banana and an orange cream, definitely an unusual combination!

The main course was unfortunately "only" good, a very decent dhal (I had ordered something else, but there was a mix up -- mistakes happen) with very plain rice. It was perfectly acceptable, but a bit of a disappointment given the price and the starters!

For dessert, I had a plate of vegan nut cheeses. Always good to see this on a menu, even if they're usually a bit underwhelming. The "camembert" was pretty good, the smoked cheese less so.

Recommended, but not the complete fine dining experience.

Pros: Extensive vegan menu, Creative and tasty dishes

Cons: Some dishes could be better, A bit on the pricey side, but not excessively

Delicious food, great setting

Really lovely restaurant on a quiet cobbled street in Funchal. Best vegan food we found in all of Madeira (which didn't have very much!)

Lots of cuisines, and the menu looks to change regularly based on what's fresh locally. We called ahead and they confirmed they always have plenty of vegan dishes and when we went there were about 1/3 of starters and mains and all puddings were vegan. Menu is clearly marked.

We loved it so much we went back again before we caught our flight home. Recommend the cauliflower starter, the chickpea curry and the stuffed courgette.

Definitely get the bread when offered - vegan salted butter and hummus comes with it, both really delicious too.

Highly recommend!

Pros: Nice ambience , Delicious food, Great drinks selection

Cons: Does serve meat

Omg!! I wish i could come back tomorrow

The dishes are a dream. Beautiful to look at and incredibly tasty. And the staff is really crazy professional and nice.
They also have non vegan options on the menu.
Would be nice if those could be also available in vegan.

Pros: 1. Vegan dishes are amazing (good taste and looks), 2. Staff!

Cons: 1. Expensive for small portions - exquisite

Fantastic food

Lovely, attentive service!
I had the glazed Tofu, green asparagus and the vegan cheese plate. Each course was just delicious. If you are in Funchal you must visit this place and enjoy a beautiful dinner.

Just great / vegan cheese plate

Nice location, lovely owners, professional staff, beautiful decor and many vegan options.
We additionally have ordered the VEGAN CHEESE PLATE which is quite new on their menu, they said. Just amazing!! A variety of 4 different cheese types produced by a small manufacturer on Madeira.
My recommendation!

Small portions but very delicious

The taste definitely compensates the relatively small portion sizes in this modern and cozy restaurant.

They had vegan beetroot tartare (EUR 17,50), cauliflower gnocchi (EUR 19,50), chickpea tikka masala (EUR 16,50), and daal negro (EUR 19,50).

Pros: Lots of vegan options, Very high quality , Cozy atmosphere

Cons: Slightly expensive , Relatively small portion sizes

Upmarket classy option in Funchal

Sophisticated vibe, contemporary style, friendly service, plenty of vegan options.
Not cheap, but from what we had would say definitely good value and very good food.
We just had a couple of starters, the pumpkin soup, and the hummus with braised mushrooms and pine nuts. Super tasty 😋
Will be sure to return for a full meal next time we visit Funchal!

Superbe voyage gastronomique

Ce repas était une expérience gastronomique très intéressante, presque tous les plats au menu sont inspirés par la cuisine de pays différents!

L'équipe était chaleureuse et attentive à nos besoins, l'espace terrasse était très agréable.

Nous avons préféré nos entrées aux plats, celles-ci étaient plus balancées en terme de saveurs. La mise en bouche, le hummus chaud et le dessert étaient délicieux.

Pros: Beau concept (voyage par la nourriture), Plusieurs options véganes pour chaque type de plat

The vegan bourgoignon was nice, but the tikka massala was too simple, considering the price.

Amazing vegan food

I had the hummus and the tikka masala both in a completely vegan version.
Menù clearly indicates with 2 stars the vegan options. Believe me it was the best tikka masala with chickpeas I have ever had!!!
The hummus was delicious too and they make it with caramellised onions and mushrooms….. so unique!
The service was just perfect.
I strongly recommend Terra!!!

Pros: Great food, Perfect service, Nice location

Very tasty and lovely dining experience

Terra is a lovely restaurant situated on a quiet back street in Funchal. The staff were very welcoming, accommodating and knowledgeable about veganism. There are a few options for each course and a very delicious brownie option for dessert. They even had vegan butter for the bread and when they brought the complimentary amuse bouche and chocolates at the end they made sure they were vegan for us. It's quite expensive but worth it for the flavours and dining experience.

Lovely place, staff and food

Every now and again I like to give my tastebuds an adventure. This place certainly did that. Fine dining, fine wines and exciting flavours. £££ but we are on holiday 😎. The vegan wine was an adventure too with cloudy whites and some sensational reds. Well worth a visit for that special night of the week. Charming seating outside too.

High-class dining experience

Food was amazing - especially the starters. I fell in love with their hummus! For mains we had the Terra Cotta and it is good but far too expensive for what it actually is. We got complimentary starters and chocolate at the end which was a really nice gesture. The staff and the owners are super kind and service is fast.

Pros: Amazing minimalistic interior, Great selection for everyone, Great and attentive staff

Cons: Too expensive , Reservation needed

Great restaurant with delicious vegan options!

This place really exceeded my expectations. Staff was very friendly and helpful and all the dishes I had were just delicious. I had a roasted beetroot with almond sauce and Terra stew with lentils. And for the dessert, a vegan brownie. I would definitely go again to this place and would recommend it as well. Would give it 5 stars, but as it is not entirely vegan, the app allows only 4.

Pros: Lots of vegan options, Delicious and flavourful meals, Friendly staff

Terra.

The staff were very friendly. Good vegan options. Wish I had saved room for a desert.

I recommend making a reservation as it seems busy. I saw some customers turned away.

Great Vegan Options!

Reservation is required and restaurant was nearly full by the time we left! Vegan options were nice and varied across the menu. Felt really upmarket both in respect of the food and the way the staff treated guests. Food was served really fast and the quality in both taste and presentation was out of this world! Offered complimentary chocolate at the end which wasn't vegan but staff were amazing and actually swapped it out for vegan chocolate instead! It is a bit more pricey than usual but it's to be expected with the kind of place this is. Nonetheless, it was 100% worth it!
