Bones racions - Edit
Les opcions són saludables i les serveixen en racions abundants. El lloc és tranquil i modern en una zona propera al casc antic de Girona. El menú de cap de setmana és bastant car, però també ofereixen l'opció de demanar plats de la carta. Vam compartir tres plats amb una amiga i vam quedar més que satisfetes.
Read morePros: Racions abundants, Lloc agradable i ampli

Good - Edit
Vegetarian restaurant that offers a daily menu with 3 starters (all included), 3 mains, and 3 desserts. They always have vegan options available, although they might not be marked on the menu, so you need to ask for them. The food is good, and the staff is friendly.

Nice place, close to train station - Edit
We visited this vegetarian restaurant for lunch one Saturday. It's handily placed if you're looking to grab something to eat before catching a train, less so if you're based in the old town.
Read moreYou can order from a daily set menu that includes a starter, main, dessert & drink but it didn't seem a great deal at €30 per person. Moreover, we weren't that hungry so decided to order a la carte instead where mains typically cost €10-€12.
I had the seitan with green pepper sauce while my wife had the moussaka, the former of which was vegan and the latter vegetarian. I really enjoyed mine but my wife wasn't so impressed, feeling that the moussaka was a bit dry. Portions aren't massive but I felt it was plenty for a light lunch.

Too expensive & exclusive - Edit
You have to order a whole menu otherwise you don’t get full. We just ordered the main course which was a very small portion, but were really expensive. So we went out hungry..

Precio elevado por la calidad del producto - Edit
Comimos bien, más bien normal, pero los platos no eran acordes con el precio del menú (16,5€)
Read moreSólo tenían dos opciones veganas y no tienen carta los mediodias.
El camarero muy amable, pero la camarera muy seria y poco servicial, seguramente no volveré a este restaurante.
Fui con mi familia, que nadie es vegetariano y salieron decepcionados, necesito llevar a mi familia a lugares donde salgan satisfechos, para demostrarles que los veganos también comemos muy rico y este no fue el lugar.
Pros: Un camarero era muy simpatico
Cons: Pocas opciones veganas, Mala calidad-precio, Una camarera antipatica

Homemade food and a warm welcome. - Edit
My friend, who lives in Girona, introduced me to this place. It’s not in the historic centre so is less touristy and filled with locals. The food is homemade, very tasty and affordable. The lunchtime meal deal includes a drink (wine, beer or water), starter, main & dessert. Free even offer you free cava. The place is fairly big inside with a small terrace in front. Very warm welcome.

Traditional food - Edit
Vegetarian restaurant that offers tradicional Catalan and Spanish food. They have a daily menu and, on weekends, a “weekend” menu. The weekend menu consists of three starters (all of them included), 3 mains to choose from and 3 desserts. You have to ask about the vegan options, since not all of them are marked. The food is very good. Little variety of vegan desserts. Really nice staff.

Classy vegetarian restaurant - Edit
My partner tried the vegetarian options off the menu del dia and I had the vegan ones. Everything was well presented, service was excellent. Dishes were typical of many vegetarian places around, not exciting but tasty and healthy. The only thing lacking was the one vegan dessert option which was a fresh juice instead of something more substantial.
Read morePros: Good vegan options, Excellent service, Classy atmosphere

The Classic - Edit
After thoroughly enjoying watching Levante beat Real Madrid we crossed over the square to the traditional setting of Amaranta for an extremely memorable lunch experience. Choosing from the regular menu rather than opting for the set lunch offer was easier on the wallet and the belly. Both tofu dishes we chose were freshly prepared, delicious and definitely worth the wait. It was a pleasure to talk with the owner about how meat free dining has evolved in Girona since Amaranta was established in 2004. Make sure you don’t leave without trying the simple but sensational chocolate salami cake. On a second visit in October 2019 we had the €14.99 set 3-course lunch menu including a glass of cava and water and left speechless. This is a wonderful wonderful place.

Traditional elegance - Edit
This is smart classy restaurant. It has a formal feel though it is unpretentious and extremely friendly. We visited for lunch and the experience was rather special. My main meal was baked tofu in vegetables and sauce, the tofu was silken which I am not usually a fan of but this was divine.

A great option for vegans - Edit
All vegetarian. Vegan options clearly marked. Menu changes every day: appetizer, entree and dessert (around four options for each and many are vegan). Don't expect anything gourmet, mostly simple meals but really delicious. Probably will be returning.

Excellent friendly restaurant - Edit
I came here for lunch and the food was excellent and beautifully served. Very friendly and helpful staff who explained the menu and recommended their special dishes. Not the cheapest, but they do have a daily menu which is good value, and the a la carte menu had a lot of great dishes on it.

Set menu..had the tasty Vichissoyse ( soup) and fantastic Seitan for mains then a delicious pudding for desert with red wine. about 32 euro for two of us. partner had mushroom noodles for main and a seitan for starters. really great taste in all dishes. fresh and just the right temperature. the decor is excellent and not the usual " hippie" vegetarian cafe. the staff were very helpful in explaining the Catalan menu. the set menu was Euro 14.90 including the glass of wine, really good value in a great setting
Read morePros: decor, freshly made food, comfortable.
Cons: check the opening hours, e. g. 1 pm for lunch, walkable but close to centre

An almost gastronomic restaurant - Edit
We had lunch in this restaurant, the owner was very welcoming and friendly.
Read moreWe did not wait too long in between meals.
For starter we took a carpaccio of zucchinis and tofu, it was very tasty; then for the main course we had a homemade seitan; for dessert as there was no vegan options on the menu we asked for it and the owner brought us delicious brownies and a kind of strawberry ice cream, both were really good !
Pros: the price, 13,90€ for 1 person at lunch, elegant presentation, excellent food

Fabulous food, great service - Edit
My wife and I ate here several times while staying in Girona for two weeks in June. We were highly impressed by the food, the inexpensive prices, and the friendly service. We are vegan, and the waiter sometimes offered us special desserts not found on the menu -- we liked that he went out of his way for us. A thoroughly pleasant place to visit. You are served three courses, and the limited menu changes every day. Everything we tried was delicious. We hope to come back to Amaranta in the future -- a very memorable place.
