Great flavors

Plentiful vegan options clearly highlighted on the menu. Traditional Greek dishes in a nice family run setting. We had vine leaves and mushrooms, both prepared exceptionally well and tasty. Rest of the options also looked worthwhile.

Very tasty food

They have some vegan options that they indicate with a 'V'. We didn't have too much food, but what we had was very tasty. We had the gigantes (butter beans in tomato sauce), which were tasty but not amazing, the fava dip, which was delicious, and the stuffed vine leaves, which were also delicious. We were also offered bread, which was very fresh and tasty.
It is usually very busy, so the staff are a little stressed with the workload and might seem rude, but they are not; they are very kind!

Great lunch!

My mom and I shared a lovely lunch with the pie of the day that was accidentally vegan (mushroom pie), vine leaves, olive tapenade, bread and white beans. Everything was delicious and tasty. I saw that they also had a vegan dessert (some chocolate cake?), but I didn’t try it. The chairs are ok, not the best but not the worst. It is a bit noisy, but overall great place to stop by for lunch. Probably good at dinner too.

Nice lunch

Very good price for Paxos and good variety of Greek vegan food. Nice bread and fava, we also had gemista and dolmades but as a Greek, I didn’t enjoy them as much. Nice atmosphere and quick service.

Best vegan options in Gaios

A lot of vegan options (you just have to ask for it and they understand exactly what vegan is). The service was so nice and the atmosphere was great. They even had a dish of the day that was vegan and it was so, so good!!
Definitely a must in Gaios!

Pros: Food, Service, Atmosphere

Beautiful place and delicious food!

We went twice to this lovely family owned restaurant in the oldtown of Gaios, Paxos. Vegan food was labeled and staff was able to recommend different vegan dishes, all of them very delicious. Also greek people come here to enjoy the food and familial atmosphere. We definitely recommend this place!

Pros: Many vegan options, labeled, Atmosphere and friendly staff

Greek vegan options

A fair few vegan options including some Greek dishes. Shame there was no vegan salad. We had bream to start which wasn't listed on the menu but our waitress said it was available, as well as olive tapenade. I had the stuffed vegetables which was nice but not a huge portion (enough after the starters though) and my friend had the spaghetti which she enjoyed. Would recommend.

Pros: Quite a few vegan options on the menu, Knowledge & friendly staff

Cons: Labelling not very obvious at first , No vegan salad

Excellent vegan and veganisable options

I had a great meal at Fanalino. The waitress knew exactly what was vegan and what wasn't. There are various vegan options on the menu (clearly marked) and others that are easily veganised when you ask. I had the mushroom selection, which was absolutely delicious. The stuffed roasted vegetables were also very nice and came with baked potatoes. Recommended!

Pros: Nice location, Great food, clearly marked vegan options, Friendly staff

Modern Greek restaurant with vegan options!

We had a really nice food experience in this restaurant. I would put 5 stars, if I had the option. The quality of the food was excellent and while not being a vegan restaurant, it had plenty of options to choose from. The owner was willing to veganise a pasta dish, by using almond milk instead of regular milk.
Generally, most of the salads are vegetarian, since they contain different cheeses, but they can easily be made vegan by removing the cheese. There are two vegan starters, aubergine saganaki in tomato sauce and tomato-basil fritters. We got the second one and it was amazing! There are two vegan main dishes, gemista (stuffed vegetables with rice and herbs) and pasta with a bell pepper sauce which was also very tasty! Finally we got a pizza with tomato sauce, tomatoes, green peppers, olives, onions and oregano, which was also of very good quality, freshly made with their own recipe for pizza dough!
I would definitely go there again if there was more time. The prices are similar to other restaurants in the area, but it is definitely a value, when you compare the quality.

Pros: Offers a variety of vegan dishes, Many dishes can easily be veganized, Excellent food quality

Cons: Menucard without clearly highlighted vegan dishes
