BEST pizza you can find in Barcelona

The crust is fluffy and tender, yet slightly crunchy as well.

I had The Big Lebanowski and it was an orgasmic experience. Soooo tasty. The sweetness of the pumpkin goes great with the garlic sauce and the baba ganoush base sauce unites every ingredient perfectly. Must try.

I also had the Special Pizza, which was extraordinarily delicious as well. The blue cheese and the caramelized pears is a combination to die for. So yummy. Definetely worth the price.

Yum!

Tried the carbonara pizza and it was great. Told myself I’d only have one slice and save the rest, but ended up eating all of my half sitting outside the restaurant.

Bester Veganer Mozzarella

Usually I don‘t like the vegan cheese so much. But the vegan mozzarella at Vato Loco is delicious. We ate the Classica (Margerita). The dough is as good as in Napoli. Bravi e brave

Pros: Autentische Pizza, Guter veganer Mozzarella, Sehr unkompliziert

The best vegan pizza I had

This place was just amazing. The pizzas all sounded super intetesting, the look is super cool and service was quick. I went with a non-vegan and he said he wouldnt have noticed the difference!

They are a bit pricey, but considering the quality it is definetely worth it! The fries on the pizza were very well flavoured, the vegan feta melted beautifully. The chicken was super realistic and the portion size I would consider perfect for one person. I would recommend this place for every vegan coming to barcelona.

Pros: Very unusual variations, The portion size , The taste, obviously

So gooood!

The vegan cheese on the pizza was so good! Mac and cheese was also delicious. We ended up getting another pizza to go because we liked it so much!

Don’t get the cheeseburger pizza

It tastes delicious, but the pizza is too thin for all the toppings and sauce, so it all just slides off when you try to pick it up. And they make you slice the pizza yourself once they’ve put it in the cardboard, which is a terrible idea. No pizza company does this for good reason.

The thin dough is typical for neapolitan pizza though, so considering that aspect its authentic

Best Pizza of my life

I‘m not even joking; never had a better pizza before. We even came back the next day because the food was so good.

Also the owner is a real sweetheart.
The Location is a little unusual (almost rural/industrial looking), and you get a pizza cutter with your order. We didn‘t mind.

Wow - best pizza!

The best pizza I've ever eaten. Simply creative and very, very delicious varieties. I would recommend anyone who can't decide to order half/half pizza.(no extra charge) The Cajun fries are also very good. Simply an addictive dream.

The best vegan pizza in the country

That might be an exaggeration, I haven’t been all over this country yet. But I can’t tell you this if you want some seriously good vegan pizza you’ve got to find this place in the Gothic quarter. It would be worth the effort, we were gonna go back, but we ran out of time, highly recommended. It’s a little bit of a snug restaurant, but you can make it work.

First night in Barcelona!!

OMG. We ordered the Funghi and it did not disappoint. I tried to get photos but tje cool little venue, with red lights made it impossible!! The fried Gnocchi was ok, but I'd save your calories for something else!!!

Amazing!

When we walked in, we didn’t know what to expect. We asked the owner if 2 pizzas were enough, and he suggested getting one to start off, and go from there. We chose the diavola pizza with vegan chorizo, red onion, and black olives. The crust was nice and chewy, but puffy and slightly crispy. A classic Neapolitan style with a thin crust base. I’m used to the NY style pizza that I can fold a slice in half and I could easily do that with this pizza. The red sauce was tangy and slightly sweet, and the chorizo was reminiscent of a spicy pepperoni. I could’ve easily had more onions on it (I will ask for extra next time), but all in all, it was an excellent pie and definitely encourages me to try their other pizzas! By the way, I could’ve gotten 2 pizzas (because it was so delicious), but one is quite generous, and was filling enough for 2 people.

Pros: The crust, The umami taste of the vegan cheese , The staff was efficient and super nice

Cons: NONE!!

Delicious pizza

The pizzas are delicious and original, I will definitely go back to try more things.
The only weird thing was that you had to ask them to open the bathroom door everytime you wanted to use it.

Pros: Delicious food, Friendly staff

Cons: Bathroom access is a weird system

Absolutely incredible

May have been the best pizza I’ve had since going vegan 7 years ago. We tried The Hugo with blue cheese and caramelised pear, The Funghi with confit garlic and 3 kinds of mushrooms, and the fried gnocchi. We were mindblown. The cheeses were my favorite, but the overall taste of everything was just sublime.

Increíble!

Espectacular, la masa y el queso y generalmente todo está muy bien, es la mejor pizza que he probado hasta ahora. Me ha encantado, y además todos los empleados son superamables. Gran recomendación!

Before eating here, the best pizza I had ever eaten was in Warsaw, but I changed my mind and will say this now has the number one spot of "Best pizza I know". We were 3 people and shared 3 pizzas (Cheeseburger, 4 Seasons and Carbonara) and I can't even pick a favourite because they all blew my mind. Unfortunately there's only a bar to sit at with about 7 spots but it was enough for us and we loved the food.

Pros: Pizza, pizza, pizza

Cons: not much space to sit
