Uninspired and confused place with stale food

Staff was friendly but confused about the order and didn't bring the correct dishes. The dishes didn't come synchronously. And the salad was a huge disappointed since besides the green leaves and the tomatoes nothing was fresh but out of a can. Would not recommend going here

Best vegetarian vegan food in Tenerife

So pleased we tried this place, amazing vegan food (everything can be made vegan). It’s so hard to find vegan food in this part of Tenerife. it’s beside a holiday complex swimming pool. It’s not a fancy place and was very quiet the evening we went. The staff are very friendly and helpful and the food was wonderful. We had veg pakoras, veg soup and lentil dhal soup. Then I had veg koftas (delicious) and my hubby had mash potatoes and seitan (again delicious). We’ll definitely be going back

Disappointed

This restaurant has Indian dishes and it's run by Hare Krishna people. The place is not too inviting, but the prices are good. The food was okay. We wouldn't recommend the vegetable pizza though.

Cons: No alcoholic beverages

Very interesting experience

We went there on a Wednesday evening. We were the only customers. The restaurant is also like a temple which was weird. The staff was very polite and welcomed us. They have an online menu and they also helped us with finding vegan options. The food was delicious and cheap! I really enjoyed it!!

Pros: Delicious , Cheap

Food was delicious and healthy

I visited twice with my family during our stay on Tenerife. The first time we arrived at 6:30 pm and were the only customers and the second time there were two other sets of customers. I loved the large choice of healthy vegan food and vegetarian food. The fries were the best I've tasted. Service was good. Everything was eaten as it was so tasty.

Pros: Healthy menu choices , Vegan desserts available , Good service

Cons: None

Amazing food cooked with love

A really nice, kind & friendly atmosphere with delicious food. The chefs cooked and served us spring rolls, vegetable samosas, fries, vegan & vegetarian pizzas, mixed salad and chickpea masala. All super fresh and cooked with love. A great place to eat and soak up the kindness of the staff. Definitely recommend a visit and we will be returning.

Pros: The freshness of the food, Food cooked with positive energy , Eating at a temple

Amazing vegan food

Visited Govinda's in Tenerife and what a special place it is. Wasn't sure how easy it would be to find vegan food on the island, but we had so much to choose from here. We had 2 kinds of pizza with seitan skewers and fried aubergine, everything was really flavourful and tasty. There were even multiple vegan ice cream flavours, strawberry & chocolate are my recommendations! Lovely kind staff, definitely visit if you are in South Tenerife 🌱

Pros: Lots of options, Delicious food, 100% Vegetarian/Vegan

Cons: None

Authentic and tasty

Vegetarian and vegan fusion restaurant serving Indian, burgers and pizzas amongst other things. The food was amazing, so tasty and the service was really friendly and helpful. Well worth a little explore to find it under the main bars and restaurants in the area. It was no problem for us but there was no alcohol served there just in case you’re desperate for a drink! Fantastic option in and around the hustle and bustle of the other more standard places around.

Pros: Lots of vegan options, Reasonable price , Nice quiet spot

Unique experience both welcoming and spiritual

Govindas was a welcoming and warm friendly space. Do not judge what you see on entry as it is like nowhere else I have been. The restaurant is dedicated to Hare Krishna and the decor is a beautiful example of the religion.
The food was excellent and reasonably priced and well worth the visit keeping an open mind

Pros: Friendly , Good service , Large menu

Unexpected Pleasure

At first sight we believed to were in wrong place: humble location, only one waiter looking confused, small crumbling tables outside.
When we ordered, we understand why reviews were goods: food was amazing! We had as starters Vegetable Samosa and Sping Rolls, then as main courses Chala Masala (chickpeas cooked with cumin seeds & tomatoes in special masala) and Seitan Cutlets with Mashed Potatoes: fantastic tastes. We finished our dinner trying their desserts Carob Vegan Braunie (I loved it) and Vegan-Raw Cheesecake. Kitchen won against our doubts.

Delicious, fresh, tasty

We had a wonderful dinner at Govindas, the best meal of our holiday in Tenerife! The food was so fresh and full of flavour. Between a group of us, we ordered a selection of dishes and everything was so good. Lots of vegan dishes and everything else vegetarian, but meat eaters happy too, we would definitely recommend.
The samosas were perfect, the pitta breads were so thick and fresh and went wonderfully with the hummus and the kofkas. Chana masala was perfect, and the kids in our group had a pizza which was lovely.
There were lots of desserts to choose from but unfortunately we didn't have time (or room!)
Thanks to Bruno for looking after us.

Pros: The food was full of flavour and freshly made, The staff were friendly and welcoming , The setting was lovely and quiet and clean

Cons: Just a shame it's a little hard to find.

Left my 5 year old hungry .

Found this place on happy cow, was exited to come here . Spent 30 min to get here only for the chef to tell us they were closed at 9:17PM. So we said, well your listings say 10PM. He says , well the kitchen closes at 9:30PM. I said ok, well It’s 9:17PM and my 5 year old is starving. He says, we can offer you some starters that’s it .

Super disappointed, will not come back .

A Vegetarian Delight in a Touristy Place

We went to Govinda's, which is a restaurant run by Krishna devotees. These restaurants are all independently owned around the world, but always serve delicious vegetarian/vegan spiritual food. The restaurant was beautifully decorated with Indian artwork, and the main attractions were Large Jagannath Deities originating in Orissa, India. Jagannath means Lord of the Universe, and these bigger than life Deities stole the show. Jagannath is Krishna, along with His Sister, Subadra, in the middle is Balaram, the Lord's brother.
Anyway, getting back to the food.. We had a lovely Govinda's salad, with strips of seitan tossed i;, a vegan lasagna, and a burger platter with seitan burgers served with mashed potatoes. The burgers were tasty, but in my opinion needed some type of gravy or sauce, as they were a bit dry. The mashed potatoes were great. We had two mojitos (virgin) and they were good but needed to be sweetened. The prices were fair and the service was wonderful. Good place to check out in Tenerife, Spain, Canary Island.

Pros: Good food, Decent prices, Nice Atmosphere

Cons: My plate needed more presentation, .no visual., The seitan burgers needed gravy or sauce.

Amazing hidden gem in Tenerife!

Gorgeous food in a serene location away from the busy strip.
The menu has a perfect mix of dishes which you can tell are all fresh and homemade.
Lovely customer service too and very clean!

I recommend:
the pizzas
Starter platter
Burger
Chana masala

That’s what we all had between us, honestly I would like to try the whole menu at one point 😅

Oh and to top it all off, the price is amazing!

Pros: Everything vegetarian, some vegan. , The food is amazing, it is also low cost!, The homemade drinks are amazing

Cons: None!

Wir waren sehr oft hier, immer wieder begeistert

Sehr leckeres und vollwertiges essen. Es schmeckt wie selbst gemacht (großes Kompliment).
Nach dem Essen fühlt man sich satt und trotzdem sehr gut. Die Inhaber kochen für sich selbst Vegan, für die Gäste jedoch auch vegetarisch.

Pros: Sehr freundliches Personal, Preise sind fair, Auch außerhalb der Öffnungszeiten geöffnet

A lovely simple vegan experience

We had the cachoris for starters and the seitan and mashed potatoes for mains. All tasted delicious and unique. The pricing was excellent and there was indoor and outdoor seating. There were short staffed the evening we were there however, but the wait was worth it. #Veganuary

Pros: Vegan primarily. , Variety

Cozy place, tasty food

I've eaten here twice this far. Both the burgers and Indian foods are very tasty. I also loved the mango lassi and homemade mango ice cream. Staff is incredibly friendly and makes me feel right at home. Great value for money as well! The place is a little bit hard to find because it's in the ground floor of a mall that is undergoing renovation.
