Must Go

Well, almost a 'Must-Go', but for a vegan in Spain it is paradise. And for non-vegan it is an amazing experience.
I love this place. Super staff included, right in the center, good music.

Pros: Food, Chilled atmosphere , Drinks

Cons: Only digital menu

Best vegan cheese I’ve ever had

We’ve been on vacation in Malaga and visited this place twice. Very friendly service and amazing vegan cheese. We’ve tried like half of the menu and everything was soo delicious! Best vegan experience I’ve had the last 4 years.

Tasting Spain, one tapa at a time

I loved the little avenue, the diversity of the tapas and the fact that they veganise the typical tapas of the region. We could taste croquetas, torta de patata, and many more.

Pros: Typical tapas, Great service

Typisch spanisches Essen

Es gab eine große Auswahl an Tapas. Die Tapas waren schön angerichtet und haben hervorragend geschmeckt. Leider wurde nicht alles gleichzeitig serviert. Wir hatten 5 Tapas. Sehr zu empfehlen.

Pros: Sehr lecker, Freundliche Bedienung

Cons: Tapas wurden nicht zusammen serviert

Good food, friendly staff

So many options to choose from that we didn't know what to order! It all tasted great. Especially the cheese fingers and patatas bravas with aioli. Too bad they only serve the paella on Saturday, would love to try that as well.

Very good vegan tapas

Lovely to have some traditional Spanish tapas options
Quick service, super friendly- good portion sizes
Range of food available- we had the peppers, paella(small), calamari, hummus and cheese sticks. The calamari was some of the best fake seafood we’ve tried.

Nice

We had loaded fries -not great, strange flavour of onion and caraway seeds. Meatballs were alright and peppers too. Good size tapas. I would recommend calamari- really tasty. I will be back for more sea food

Vegan tapas!

We visited whilst on holiday and returned for a second visit as really enjoyed it! Great to be able to get a good selection of vegan tapas - they do authentic Spanish tapas and a few more generic options like burgers/nuggets - we stuck with the traditional options. Portions were good, served quickly and friendly service, cheap beers.

Great tapas

Who says there are not good vegan tapas? This place shows it can be done. If you near the Picasso birth house the stop here should be a must!

Pros: Small place, The staff, Excellent texture of the "octopus"

Cons: Food named after animals, The octopus was very oily

Vegan Tapas!

The restaurant, small and informal, is located in the center.
The cuisine is 100% vegetable, homemade and tasty. The possibility of being able to order tapas, which are so characteristic here in Spain, is very interesting.
Very friendly and helpful staff.
Average prices.

Originelle vegane Tapas

Hier gibt’s alle möglichen Tapas, von Octopus über Chorizo und Klassiker wie Patata Bravas (frittierte Kartoffelstücke) mit tollen Cremes. Liegt zudem in einer atmosphärischen Gasse. Leider nur zwei Tische, die draußen stehen, drinnen deutlich mehr Platz. Wirklich zu empfehlen, wenn man Tapas erleben möchte.

Delicious!

It was really nice having some traditional tapas choices without having to wonder if they are vegan. Have to admit tho, they can work on their patatas as they arrive as cold fries. The other stuff was really delicious especially the gambas and eggplant!

Complete disappointment

We went there twice during our stay in Málaga since the reviews were really promising. During our first time we had croquetas, albóndigas, patatas alioli, Heura nuggets and calamares rings. The croquetas and the patatas were good though the alioli felt like eating fat cream with little taste. The Heura nuggets were good (can't do much wrong with ready-bought nuggets) but the albóndigas were rather disappointing and the calamares just tasted like oil. For the calamares we had to wait for over 15 min so when they came, we had already finished everything else and already wanted to go. The home-made lemonade was literally just water with some lemon squeezed in it. So better stick to Fritz cola or beer, it's even cheaper.

We still came back a week later though because we wanted more croquetas and patatas. However this time we were really shocked. Everything was served with soggy French fries and the patatas weren't potato cubes but soggy, oily fries drenched in fatty sauce as well. An absolute no-go! They also had no croquetas and the Moorish skewers were just in broth soaked soy shreds. Everything was served with these soggy fries and everything was super fatty.
I've eaten tapas in Spain quite often before going vegan so I know that these shouldn't be as soggy/fatty/oily as here. Because of that, we gave no tip this time and you could notice how the waitress was rather unhappy. We also had quite some stomach problems after that due to the amount of oil.
So only go there at your own risk cause I can't really say that these were authentic, tasty tapas.

Pros: Croquetas and the real patatas were good

Cons: Soggy fries served with everything, Everything is oily

Amazing Tapas!!

It was AMAZING to finally get to eat the tapas I had been seeing all over Spain! I ordered the tortillas de patatas, croquetas del día, and pan bao, and it was all very delicious! If you are vegan/eat plant based, this is the spot for you in Málaga!

Pros: Lots of options, Very delicious , Very quick!

I came here with my partner, the service was good, we ordered gambas al pilpil, patatas bravas, albóndigas con salsa almendras, palitos de queso fritos. The food was all great in my opinion, but my partner didn’t like the sauce on the patatas brava. Highly recommend las gambas.

Good

We went there during our trip. The fries were good but I don’t think they should come as patatas bravas. They didn’t have Spanish omelette. The paella was yummy

Wouldn’t go back 

Lovely tapas bar plenty of options with different portion sizes. We had 5 small tapas between us which was more than enough. The gamba pil pil was amazing. Service was good and prices were very reasonable

UPDATE from recent visit Sept 2024. Was really not impressed this time around. Everything was fried and chips come with nearly everything which is really strange. The “chorizo” did not taste like it and the consistency was not good. We thought we’d try the “octopus” it wasn’t too our taste at all. It came with potatoes which tasted like cold burnt oil. I couldn’t eat them. The octopus was very rubbery and just not a nice taste.

Vegan Tapas

They offer various vegan tapas.
As I have to eat gluten-free as well, I chose patatas bravas, the meatballs and the sepia. It was all tasty. But I had better meatballs before.

Mucha variedad de tapas

El lugar es un sitio tranquilo y acogedor. Los platos están bien aunque las raciones son un poco pequeñas para su precio. Recomiendo el pan bao.

Bit underwhelming

After reading the comments I was hyped but didn’t enjoyed it that much in the end.

Delicious

We went there twice during our stay in Malaga. They have so many options to choose from! We got the loaded fries, patatas bravas, paella, pintxos, "calamari" rings, cheesy sticks, nuggets, 2 types of mini burgers, croquetas and the fried peppers.
Everything was really tasty, the loaded fries, patatas bravas and paella were delicious (paella only served on saturdays). It's so great to be able to experience Spanish tapas fully vegan.
The staff was kind and helpful, the place is also openly LGBTQ friendly 💜 Definitely our favorite restaurant during our trip in Andulacia.

Pros: Delicious food, So many options, Friendly staff

Tapas riquisimas

Probamos varias tapas y todas estaban buenísimas. Las albóndigas con salsa de almendras súper recomendadas. Sin duda hay que volver.

Pros: Albondigas, Comida en general, Amabilidad staff
