Small portion, bland food - Edit
I went here, because I like to support vegan places, but this was just a huge disappointment. I ordered the feijão, which was just a poorly made Indian dahl. Portion size is small, the food is not properly spiced. Overpriced for what you get. Waitress was very friendly, though.

Nice cosy place - Edit
Little gem in the centre of Tomar. Friendly people and tasty food. I ordered the mushroom "alheira," which was supposed to come with veggies, but got salad instead. I'm usually very particular about salads, and that had been one of the reasons I had gone for that dish in the first place as the others came with salad, but I was pleasantly surprised. It was perfectly seasoned and sprinkled with sesame seeds, and the lettuce leaves were just the way I like them.

Cute place - Edit
The place was really cute, has inside seating and a couple of tables outside.
Read moreThe menu didn’t appeal to us either seitan and mushrooms - we’re a bit tired of these options.
But a nice vegan only place.

We were the only costumers when we arrived. During our meal many locals came in to eat.
Very affordable prices

Nice little place - Edit
The place is very nice and the atmosphere is great. Some dishes are not bad, but overall I felt this place is lacking taste and creativity, especially when it comes to the main dishes. And I have been there on two different occasions.

Deliciosa comida de conforto - Edit
Para prato principal, comemos o prato de tofu com pão de milho, batata a murro e grelos. Estava absolutamente maravilhoso, comida de conforto bem executada.
Read morePara sobremesas, comemos um doce de coco com laranja, regado com chocolate e amêndoa e pera bêbada com chocolate e amêndoa. A de coco era muito boa, das melhores que já comi e a pera bêbada também estava boa, embora o vinho tinto estivesse com um sabor mais forte.
No geral, tive uma sensação de casa, de conforto, com sabores maravilhosos.

Comida boa mas em porções reduzidas - Edit
Das duas vezes que jantei no gira sol fui atendido com imensa simpatia, a comida é boa, o único ponto menos positivo são as porções, eu acho que são demasiado pequenas para o preço, e um adulto médio irá ficar insatisfeito com a porção servida.

Delicious vegan Restaurant - Edit
All-vegan-food Restaurant, in a quiet street of Tomar. Very friendly staff, greaf service and delicious natural food.
Read moreWe had a very good starter with cheese, tomato and sauce. Afterwards a very good main dish of quinoa burger, potatos with garlic and onion and a very well dressed salad. For dessert we chose the crumble and the chocolate salami (portuguese salame de chocolate, sorry if this is a bad translation of mine), which we had a second round of.
Could not recommend this place enough.
Pros: Healthy, natural, delicious vegan food, Service, Location

The only fully-vegan restaurant in Tomar - Edit
"Gira, Sol" is the ONLY vegan restaurant in Tomar, as of August 2023—to my knowledge. There are of course other places that serve vegan food, but as far as I know, this is actually the only place that does not serve meat. It's also a nice place, with a relaxed, family-run atmosphere and a great location on a quiet street (unlike some of the other part-veggie options) in the old town. Go!

Pros: Good atmosphere, No animal products, Daily specials for main/soup/appetizer
Cons: Only had 30min for lunch; had to catch a train.

Nice vegan home-style meals in downtown Tomar - Edit
The restaurant is fully vegan despite its name saying “vegetarian”. Cozy little place under one of the very old buildings of downtown Tomar.
Read moreThey offered a olive spread as an appetizer, vegetable soup, two different main dish options: a quinoa salads and black beans with chouriço, and two desserts: carob cake and parfait. The food was really simple and tasted homemade. We really liked it.
We’re definitely coming back when we visit Tomar again.
Pros: Homemade taste, Charming, small ambient, Warm, welcoming staff

So cozy place! - Edit
An awesome hidden gem - it's a rare case that you find a veg cafe in a small town. Very lovely women treated us with delicious food in a cozy atmosphere. Nice place for a short rest during your trip!

Delicious food, great service - Edit
We were very happy to learn that a vegetarian restaurant opened in Tomar. We enjoy visiting the city but vegan options have been limited. At Gira Sol the people were welcoming and friendly. The food was delicious. We started with bread and an olive spread which I think is the best I have ever eaten. I love that in Portugal, you can find vegetable soup just about anywhere, but this vegetable soup was definitely another level. Normally, the vegetable soup is kind of bland and not special. But this soup was special. It was full of flavour and tasted like it was made with vegetables that were just picked. It tasted like springtime. For main dishes, I had pesto pasta and my husband had the beans with shitake mushrooms. Both were really delicious. Portions were very generous. We shared a dessert made with mango and kiwi. It was light and fresh and the perfect finish to a great meal. We will definitely be back. Thank you! 😋
