Worst restaurant I have visited... - Edit
I went with a friend and just by the derelict look of the place from the outside we almost didn’t go further. I like to give vegan places a chance as I know how tough it is as a vegan joint so we went in. The interior is the worst I have seen of probably any restaurant in my life and wish I had just walked out. The food was edible but the cleanliness standards seemed so low I am definitely never going back. A shame - as I have been to loving huts in other parts of the world which are great (e.g. Florida and London) but this place gives the brand a really bad name. The photos must have been taken pre-Covid, as it looks good but I wish I had taken new photos of the place to warn others. If they improve and hope they do I would be the first to congratulate them and recommend.

Nope - Edit
Normalement j'aime beaucoup Loving Hut mais là c'était vraiment un fiasco. La nourriture était tellement huileuse et grasse... Ça m'a vraiment déçue.

Not the place to go in Malaga - Edit
I visited this place because I happened to be walking nearby it, but I don't recommend.
Read moreIt's greasy and not very tasty. Better to visit many of the other vegan places, or non-vegan places which still offer great vegan options.
Usually I like most Loving Hut's I've been to, but this was a let down.

Nicht gut - Edit
Es bricht mir das Herz, dies zu kommentieren aber als Warnung für die nächsten Gäste😢.... Der Besitzer ist sehr freundlich und macht quasi ein Buffet auf dem Tisch. Das Essen an sich schmeckt gut aber die Teller und Besteck sind dreckig und ölig. Tische und Stühle ebenfalls. Das Restaurant war 2019 deutlich besser....

Cheap food, messy place. - Edit
We went there because we had already been in a Loving hut restaurant but in Warsaw
Read moreThe difference was tremendous. The place wasn't very clean and the space doesn't make you feel comfortable at all. The food was not super tasty, however it was worth for the price. The man in charge was kind but not very professional.

Me encanta - Edit
Antes iba mucho a comer allí. Mucha variedad y de sabor muy bueno. Se parece a un buffet chino que tenemos en Madrid. El sitio antes era super cutre pero lo renovaron. Espero que no hayan cambiado la comida

Really bad - Edit
The place was open but they haven't been serving buffet for a long time now because they can't afford to. However the owner wanted to make us a simple dish. We decided to give it a go even though the restaurant was very messy and dusty. The plates weren't really clean, no napkins offered, and the food that we had wasn't good at all. Tasted very bland with no taste, just greasy with oil. Would never go back. We were very disappointed.

BRILLIANT! 😀 - Edit
I really don't understand why some earlier customers have given this place such misleading, negative reviews.
Read moreThe elderly lady is super friendly and generous and there's a good selection of dishes.
For €9 = all you can eat!
Two separate toilets, spotlessly clean.
This is the second time I've eaten here in 2 days; I'm here now, give this place a chance, I hope you won't be disappointed 😀✌👏👍🙏

Vegan buffet in town - Edit
A Taiwanese buffet in the city, if you love authentic asian food this is your place, a very humble reataurant, not the best environment and atmosphere.

super wierd experience - Edit
One of the wierdest experiences in vegan restaurants. Already when we arrived had some feeling that something is off. But we decided to stay and give a try as we've read also some good rewievs. Everything was dirty and lady started to bring us different foods without explaining what it is. And some of them tasted wierd. One of us got some kind of lasagna thing with mold so we decided to leave. Don't recommend it at all.

Lovely buffet - Edit
The lady in charge was very welcoming towards our baby and prepared him a selection of soft foods from the buffet. She also kept bringing over new dishes for us to try. More and more people came after we arrived (we arrived at opening time) and more and more food kept appearing. It’s a cheap Asian buffet and only Spanish is spoken but it’s easy to navigate even if you don’t speak any Spanish. We liked it.
Read morePros: Baby friendly - they have a highchair , Lots of different choice , Great value
Cons: Room is a bit dark

I understand some of the comments as it is a family style dining experience but still quite typical of spain. The food was delicious with lots of choice and more food brought direct to us when freshly cooked.

Food is tasty but could be better environment - Edit
I went in that place because I saw it on HappyCow, it was near where I was and I was thinking "Oh, asian food, why not".
Read moreI arrived there and indeed, it wasn't very clean, the staff didn't speak English and I was the only person present. It wasn't the best atmosphere, i didn't feel very comfortable.
The food was good but the overall energy didn't make me feel at ease and I coouldn;t wait to get out of the place.
of course, maybe I woul'dv had a different experience in another set of circumatances but that is how it happened with me.
Pros: Tasty Food, Cheap
Cons: Not very clean, Staff doesn't speak english, Not comfortable overall energy and atmosphere

Buffet - Edit
We came early, just when it opened. The kitchen staff was still cooking and preparing the buffet. When there was a new dish ready, the hostess brought it to us to put some on our plate. The fresh dishes where the best. For just 10 euro all you van eat, it's a paradise for us Dutchies.
Read morePros: Cheap, Buffet: so a lot of choices
Cons: Rather a lot of 'unhealthy' options

Not bad - Edit
For a quick vegan lunch this is a good place , all though the buffet is small and not filled completely, they need a very good clean . For me it is no problem that there is only 5 cucumbers pieces in the buffet , I understand that if they have not enough customers that they will have to trow everything away but they need to be much cleaner ! Everything is very dirty and that is not okay for a restaurant.

They do it well - Edit
Hidden away, very basic restaurant. The lady that served us was very passionate about being vegan, and the unlimited buffet was delicious. They even cooked up some dishes especially for us so we knew they hadnt been sitting there all day. Highly recommend

Scioccante! - Edit
Non mi sarei aspettata di trovarmi in un ristorante cinese a buffet. Non mi e sembrato un locale molto pulito guardando dove tenevano le posate i piatti e dando uno sguardo dietro al bancone.. Patatine posse. melanzane fritte posse. Sembrava tutto un avanzo di altri lasti. mangiato di fretta e poco e scappati via..

Great tasting food at great value. - Edit
All you can eat buffet, typical of Loving Hut. Food is very tasty and made fresh while you wait. Vegan tapas dishes brought to the table. Fruit juices made fresh and very tasty while not being expensive. It's a small trek from the tourist area but we'll worth the walk. Overall great value for money, make sure you go on an emtpy stomach! Will visit again next time we are in Malaga.
Read morePros: Great value for money., Very tasty Asian and Spanish food.

Vegan Buffet - Edit
Great little place if you want a quick fix in the city. Eat as much as you like for €8 (drinks not included) Lots of choice, hot and cold. Salad, rice, noodles, TVP curries, veggies, tempura. Mostly Asian dishes, all fantastic! Would recommend!
Read moreHowever, it would be nice if they offered jugs of tap water and the restaurant was very quiet, no noise or music so you could hear everyone's conversations lol
Pros: Good location , Eat as much as you like , Lots of choice
Cons: Tap water could be available , No ambience, no background music

Great Vegan Buffet - Edit
Lovely food, large choice. Buffet is €8. Drinks and deserts extra. Staff very friendly and accommodating. I arrived soon after they opened for lunch and all the food wasn't out, but they kept bringing me small dishes of food. If you're using Google maps to find it, note it shows as the old name.
Read morePros: Great choice of tasty food. Friendly. Good prices.
