Very disappointed

I waited 1.5hr for 2 vegan burgers. One had goats cheese in, the other was just bad.

Pros: Open plan kitchen, Aesthetic

Cons: Bad burger , Very long wait , Got given animal cheese

Reliably good food

Our first visit to El Limon was in 2017. Then same as today, they offer a good range of vegetarian / vegan dishes. Some glutenfree dishes as well. This time we had vegetable wok and vegetable curry. Both were tasty. The team is very friendly. Will definitely go there again!

Burgers in the center

Fully vegetarian place with few vegan options but they can adjust the rest to vegan version if possible. The place itself looks nice and food is good. My gf had the vegetarian tropical burger and it seems it was delicious. I had the vegan burger with tofu which was good but nothing really special.

Pros: Quite cheap, Centric location

Nice and cheap

Very cozy restaurant, several vegan options, they said that every hamburger could be made vegan. We had a vegan menu with juice hamburger with fries and beer slice of apple cake for 20 euros!!

Nice food

Cozy place, mostly vegetarian but some vegan options and according to the waiter the majority could be made vegan upon request. Generous plates. Including vegan cake for dessert.

Update 1,5 years later. The place has survived the pandemic crisis and I’m happy for them. We came back and ate dinner. The food is good. Still not many vegan options, I think from 6-7 first courses only one was vegan, but they are happy to substitute and used to vegan customers.

10€ for menu (smoothie, soup, main dish, dessert)

Great selection of vegan options, today the didn’t have vegan dessert, so I got vegan cappuccino instead. We tried virgin mojito as well and it was delicious.

Pros: Cheap, Great service, Big selection

El limón te cuida

Perfecto para vegetarianos, pero los veganos tenemos que cuidar mucho y mirar la hoja de alérgenos.
Por lo general es un bar vegetariano y no se debería pretender platos elaboradisimos, sino cosas muy concretas y tradicionales

Updated from previous review on 2021-05-30

Pros: Opciones veganas deliciosas, Comida casera, Pucheros y zumos frescos y bien hechos

Cons: Cuidar mucho los alérgenos

Nice vegan Menu

I went there yesterday and I got the vegan Menu for 8.50 euros.
I got a fresh fruity juice, a seitan sandwich and some fries 🍟
Everything was really tasty and the place is really nice and cosy!

Bien para salir del paso...

The first time I went, nothing convinced me. After a few opportunities, I sometimes pass by, especially because in Puerto de la Cruz there are no more places where you can eat vegetarian or vegan. The best, the sandwiches. You have to ask about vegan options.

Updated from previous review on 2019-11-30

La primera vez que fui no me convenció nada. Después de algunas oportunidades, alguna vez paso por allí, sobretodo porque en el Puerto no hay más sitios donde se pueda comer vegetariano o vegano. Lo mejor, los bocadillos. Hay que preguntar por las opciones veganas.

Updated from previous review on 2019-11-30

Pros: Sitio muy barato.

Cons: Vegetariano con pocas opciones veganas.

Solo para salir del paso.

Hemos ido en varias ocasiones a comer/cenar y la impresión siempre es la misma. Decepción.
Se han equivocado con las comandas al traernos por ejemplo una burger vegana con salsa de queso lácteo.
La comida es poco elaborada, de sabores insípidos.
Es la última opción cuando necesitas comer en el Puerto y no hay nada más abierto.

Pros: Comida muy barata.

Cons: Comida con poco sabor y poca gracia.

Decepción

Pedimos unos nuggets y croquetas que eran pura masa de harina. La hanburgesa canaria no estaba mal, aunque se repite mucho, el bocadillo canario de lo mejor que comimos. Al producto le falta calidad, muchos ingredientes de paquete

Pros: Hay amplio menú vegetariano, Medidas anti covid, Económica

Cons: Comida poco sana, Mucho frito, Atención mejorable del camarero

Not great

This is a nice setting with friendly staff, but the food is a real let down. Despite the menu clearly showing allergens, our food came with cheese when it said no dairy. It was very basic and bland - we left most of it. The juices were good.

Deja mucho que desear

Un lugar que se ha dejado en el tiempo, productos de hoja como lechuga o rucula de muchos dias, comida sosa, camarero despistado con la comanda, salero muy viejo con oxido, bote de jabon de manos de hace años, etc

Cons: No volveré a comer aquí

Good food and drink, but ask about prize

We took "hamburger with everything" (burger with avocado, pineapple, vegan majones etc. and fries). We had to say we wanted it Vegan, uneless it would have consisted of egg and milk. I also took "Detoxifying: pineapple, lemon, cucumber, orange and chia" to drink. It tasted healthy, but good. My mum didn't like it, but thats a matter of taste. The next time we ordered. We should have paid 10.50 euros, but had to pay 15.50 euros. So ask about how much it cost since they don't take the same price on the menu. It could be because they had to veganize it, but then it should have been writen on the menu, or they should have said it.

Pros: Healthy drinks , Good hamburger , They can veganize

Cons: Wasn't salt and pepper on the fries, Hamburger bread wasn't whole grains, We should've paid 10.50 euros, but paid 15.50

Great service , food ok

Very nice, fast and helpful service! Many items on the menu contain dairy but still it is very easy to find vegan options (Starters, Main and Desserts). Also the staff is really nice and helpful and we were asked in the beginning if we were vegan and the waitress pointed out that one meal we picked out was not vegan and so we could change the order.
The food was ok, but very fatty and a lot of convenience products were used. Also all of the meals tasted pretty boring and could use a bit of seasoning. We would probably not come here twice.

Pros: Great and helpful service!, Vegan options on the menu

Cons: Dairy-heavy menu, Very fatty and greasy food, Lots of convenience products

Super lecker, zum Wohlfühlen

Das Essen war super lecker, es gab sehr viel Auswahl für das vegane Wohl und die Bedienung war super freundlich und lieb. Die Preise waren auch verhältnismäßig günstig. Wer einmal auf Teneriffa ist, sollte hier vorbeischauen 👍

It’s the must go of Puerto de la Cruz

We ´ve been there!
And it certainly not only has a cozy welcoming atmosphere but also a menu where vegans have several options!
Not a side dish but main dishes,cakes,sandwiches,baguettes and drinks...
It certainly gives a hungry vegan full nutritional and tasty options!

Pros: Very good nutritional cooked food, A lot of choices for vegans, Good price!

Cons: None

Meh, but nice with a veg place

Staff was a bit unattentive and didn't speak English. Ok food, but better for vegetarians than vegans. Unclear labeling of vegan options as it differs from the Spanish and English menu.

Value for money

We went for menu of the day which was good value, tasted ok, especially apple cake was nice. I would go back if I could to try some of the things from regular menu. I like the fresh airy decor. Menu felt very dairy heavy for my liking, most things had cheese in them.

Pros: Cheap

Cons: Very dairy heavy menu

Fantástico!!

Muchas opciones vegetarianas y veganas. La comida es deliciosa! Muy buena relación calidad precio. Lo que más me impactó fué el buen ambiente entre los trabajadores y la excelente coordinación de todos cuando el restaurante se llenó de un momento a otro! Impresionante!! Volveré ya que me ha quedado mucho que probar!💚🌱

A must go

While in Puerto Cruz my boyfriend and I went four times to El Limón! Two for a drink and cake, the other two for dinner. In one of our dinners it happened they still had a Menú del Día left so we went for it and some snacks not included in the menu. It was perfect!

The menu is unexpensive and includs a soup, a main dish, a dessert and the juice of the day. Main dish in our case was a delicious quinoa with salad (see pic).

Smoothies are wow. And cakes (almost all of them) vegan. They also have yummy crème caramel (vegan and veggie). And mousse au chocolat.

Stuff is very nice.
