Good food, great vibes - Edit
The food was good but what really stood out was the restaurant itself: The sea is just a few metres away, its nicely decorated and the staff was really nice too.

Wonderful ambiance, nice local vibe - Edit
The view from the restaurant alone is reason to visit. It also has a very comfortable vibe for lingering over coffee or cocktails. The food was decent, but I didn't find it remarkable. I did like the veggie wrap with the cucumber dill sauce.
Read morePros: Beautiful view, Dog friendly, Laid back
Cons: Slow service, Decent but unremarkable food

Fabulous! - Edit
Absolutely loved this spot, right on the beach with a beautiful view of the ocean. The vegan truffles here are some of the best vegan desserts I've ever had in my life! I went back for more a few days later. The tacos and nachos were also amazing. Highly recommend, wish more places like this existed!

Fresh and healthy food with a view! - Edit
I loved the food so much that we went there 3 times! It's right at the beach/ocean. It's a cute place. Some of the staff are friendlier than others.
Read moreEven though it was hardly busy it usually took more than 30mins for the food to arrive. But at least it was worth it!
Everything tasted amazing and fresh! I especially loved the falafel salad. The mucuna (?) smoothie was really delicious too: thick and with a lot of flavor.
Go and eat there!
Pros: Super delicious food, Great view, Fresh and healthy food
Cons: Food takes some time to arrive

Really good food - Edit
The food here is really good, the burrito Latino and burrito falafel are both lovely and the nachos are delicious, if you're ordering the large nachos definitely get them to share because they're huge (and good value) and definitely enough for a full meal. The flor de jamaica drink is really refreshing too, and the coffee is good although the house vegan milk is a bit heavy. Also really nice atmosphere and views of the beach and coastline

Great food and amazing view of the beach! - Edit
This is a lovely restaurant right on the beach. The food was amazing with a great menu that has lots to offer. We kept wanting to leave room for their wide variety of vegan cheesecakes but kept filling up on our delicious mains. Pretty much the whole menu can be made vegan and the staff were very helpful when ordering.

Leckeres Essen bei super Aussicht - Edit
Mir hat es im Griw sehr gut gefallen. Ich hatte das Gericht "Patty Party", einen Mocktail und das vegane Käsekuchendessert mit Passionsfrucht. Alles war sehr lecker. Habe für alles zusammen knapp unter 30 Euro bezahlt. Ich finde das Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis angemessen.

Please do not blend the avocados to make guacamole. Use less oil when frying the breaded oyster mushrooms or at least pat them down to remove excess oil. The vegan salmon was not to my taste at all. My local vegan friend loves it so to each their own.🤷♀️

Pros: Margarita was tasty., Right on the beach.
Cons: Prices! Perhaps due to beachfront location., There was a strange odor. Maybe sewage., My local vegan friend was served non-vegan cheese.

The best burritos/falafels - Edit
I kept coming back here, the falafel burrito was my favorite, really well executed and well balanced flavours, good portion size. The only thing that brings down the score here is the Latino burrito when you sub it for vegan cheese you get a tiny bowl of vegan sour cream for an extra 4$, it's crazy and not at all worth it.
Read morePros: The best falafels
Cons: Too expensive with vegan cheese

Amazing location! - Edit
Located right at the beach front, Grow does not only offer good food and service but also a spectacular view. I tried the burrito. It was good and filling but not overwhelming. Reading through the comments here though, I’ll definitely make sure to drop by once more and try another dish. Anyway, 5/5 already for atmosphere and service!
