Amazing find in Puerto Viejo

After trying out a number of restaurants toting vegan options and being disappointed, Madre Tierra was the real deal. With maybe 60-70% of the menu actually vegan, and specials that were so delicious, this is a spot you could go to more than once because there is so much to try.

Bonus because just beside is an ice cream shop that serves gelato! That’s if you still need it after VEGAN CHEESECAKE!

Pros: Lots of vegan options, Super tasty food, Amazing location

Delicious

The description doesn't do enough honour. Best vegan food I've found in Puerto Viejo. Gnocchi made of breadfruit (a bit like jackfruit) and a vegan cheesecake that comes close to the taste of Snickers, but then vegan.

Lots of vegan options!

This restaurant was great. There were so many options for vegans and they were clearly marked. I had the house made veggie burger, which was tasty but fell apart. My husband had a curry vegetable dish with rice. He liked it a lot! Only downside was we sat upstairs and had to listen to the blender make frozen drinks over and over again. I would definitely eat here again.

Cons: Noisy

Great for vegetarians/vegans!

My boyfriend and I came here for dinner recently and loved everything about it- the nice atmosphere, view of the beach, friendly staff, beautifully prepared food and lots of vegan/vegetarians options (clearly marked!). We had the special breadfruit gnocchi and and a vegetable peanut coconut curry dish, both were excellent. Definitely recommend!

Pros: Friendly staff, Great food, View of the beach

best bruschetta ever

they have many (labeled) vegan options. the bruschetta was the best i had in a really long time. the curry was nice but not so flavourful. The spaghetti with pesto and coconut cream was really good but a little dry (like most pestos).
The service was great and the smoothies were delicious and really big.
Would totally recommend it

Good vegan options

Lots of fresh juices (non alcoholic cocktails) we had the tomato and veg pasta (vegan) and the vegan chickpea burger with fries.. was slightly pricy for what it was

Lots of really good vegan options!

Nice reggae and reggae inspired tunes at perfect dinner volume. Bread Fruit Gniocci and Chickpea Burger were really good. Also have vegan curries dishes and some other items. Service was excellent, very friendly!!! Favorite place in Puerto Viejo!

Breadfruit Gnocchi is unmissable!

Plenty of options for vegans and vegetarians. It's a little loud here with reggae music being blurted out by the bartender but the restaurant is a lively little hub. (Puerto Viejo is quite loud anyways)

The Breadfruit Gnocchi was sensational! I hear its always on the specials board, not the main menu.

The curries were okay a little bland but a welcomed change from Gallo Pinto.

Overall a little expensive perhaps but some good food and plenty of options.

Worth a visit.

Pros: Lots of vegan options

Cons: Loud, Sells Meat and fish , Expensive

Tasty Vegan Options

I ate here for dinner the other night and had a vegan gnocchi dish with a nice salad, also a great and huge pineapple and ginger juice.

They have a blackboard with clearly labelled vegan options of the day.

The service was really good and it was nice sitting upstairs overlooking the water.

Pros: Clearly labelled vegan options, Tasty food, Friendly service

Cons: A bit pricey
