Bardzo dobre jedzenie

Bardzo dobra opcja wegańska , jedliśmy dal tadka i talez wegański. Szczególnie polecam talerz wegański, który składa się z kołku małych dań. Danie smaczne, miła obsługa , moim zdaniem jedna z lepszych wegańskich opcji w Funchal

Sehr leckeres veganes Curry

Ich hatte ein veganes Kartoffel Blumenkohl Curry und es hat sehr lecker geschmeckt. Auch Reis und Naan Brot kann man dazu bestellen. Es gibt aber auch weitere vegane Alternativen!:)

Essen im Touristenhotspot mit mittelgroßen Portionen

Waren hier zum Abendessen - an sich ein ganz gutes Lokal mit moderaten Preisen und hervorragendem Service. Essen war ganz gut, Portionen leider nicht ganz so groß. Zudem müssen alle Beilagen extra bestellt werden da sie nicht im normalen Preis inklusive sind. Das gilt nicht fürs thali wo papadam und Reis dabei sind inkl 3 Gerichten. Hatten die veg kofta und ein veganes thali.

Pros: Vegane Optionen , Tipp: Thali nehmen (beste Preis Leistung)

Cons: Beilagen wie Reis sind extra (außer im thali), Gemüse kommt teilweise aus der Dose

Hariyali dal saag & garlic naan

Basmati is situated in what you can call a tourist trap street with staff trying to talk you in their venue. That being sad, Basmat had a lot of vegan options, and for example the garlic naan was served without butter (made it a bit dry but it was a good naan).

I had the hariyali dal saag, which had flat taste (I like it more authentic) but it wasn't bad.

Pros: Clearly labeled vegan options

Cons: Very touristic, Smoking on outside tables (smoke comes inside)

Thali and more

Lots of options. We had onion bhajis and vegan thali. The food was really fresh and tasty. Went back a second time for veg kofta and roti (ask for no ghee on roti)

Nice Indian - Nepalese restaurant

Clearly marked vegan options on the menu. We had samosas and garlic naan which were okay, and the thali and Nepalese momo were nice. I don't think I'd return, but it's nice to have vegan options in an area where most restaurants don't have any vegan options on their menu.

They had lots oh vegetarian options, I went for the Chana masala and they told me that they can also make it vegan. Very delicious, not expensive. Would recommend!

Great vegan thali

Amazing vegan thali. Lots of other vegan options on the menu. Great service - staff knowledgeable about veganism including advising my non-vegan/vegetarian partner that the paneer option he chose was not vegan.

Good menu - vegan dishes clearly marked

They actually have vegan dishes clearly marked on the menu..a rare thing in "omnivorous " restaurants in Funchal !
Friendly service.
We had a good quality vegan thali, and a not very good vegetable biryani.
The interior is very basic and not particularly cosy or pleasant.
Overall, worth taking a look if in the old town, it's a decent option, although not the best, in my opinion, for vegan Indian in Funchal.

One of the best restaurants in Funchal

Indian restaurant with many vegan options. We ordered four of them and all tasted amazing.

You can get a full vegan meal incl. vegan naan bread and rice for less than EUR 15,-

Impoetant note: There are two restaurants that are called "Basmati", so make sure to visit the right one!

Pros: Tasteful , Cheap, Lots of vegan options

Cons: Looks a bit touristic

Got fish instead of a vegan dish

I ordered a specifically vegan dish and was served a wrong one with fish. Noticed after one bite and got sick. Was extremely disgusted and not able to eat the correct dish after this. Unfortunately a very bad experience.
