Solid choice

One of the pleasures of using Happycow when travelling is that it often brings us to areas of a city we might not have visited otherwise. So it is with Raices, which was tucked in a thoroughly residential/business area about 20 minutes from the touristy historic district where we stayed. We were the first customers to arrive when the restaurant reopened its doors at 9 pm, and there weren't many people when we left. Service was on the slower side and our dishes dribbled out of kitchen in fits and starts. Decor was pretty basic. The menu was extensive and vegan dishes clearly marked. Everything was great. The seitan is more of the loaf kind. One surprise was the shredded/chopped soy which I had expected to be rubbery but was very tender. This was our first decent meal in over two days and my kids have been pestering me to leave a good review on HC.

Pros: Solid food, Friendly server

Cons: Service a little slow, 20 min walk from center and taxi not faster

„I want everything“

Lots of options, we wanted to try everything. The food is so super delicious and they can also fulfill special wishes.

I went here on my first evening, and now I want to go here every day, but I am only here for two more evening.

Pros: Many options, Vegan food clearly labeled, Fully vegetarian

Cons: No cons

Raíces

Todo excelente, no obstante, a destacar en mi caso particular es que cuando llegue casi estaban cerrando las cocinas y me atendieron sin demora y ajustándose a mi situación

So delicious I didn't take pics

Sounds funny but it's true! I was hungry, and I had great expectations about this place. It didn't disappoint at all. With almost 40 years of experience, Raíces lives up to its name. The food tastes like traditional Spanish grandma food, but vegan. Can't get any better than that! The apple strudel is amazing. Try it!

Pros: Many vegan options, Traditional taste, Great value

Muchas opciones veganas

Muy buena opción con comida veganas en Granada, carta amplia, todo lo que probamos estaba muy rico, una pena que en algunos platos no utilicen Nara vegana, ojalá lo valoren al futuro.

Pros: Bastantes opciones veganas, Se aparca bien en la zona, Muy buen trato

Cons: Algunas recetas no eran vegan por el queso o nata

Cómo opción no está mal

El trato fue muy bueno y el local a pesar de ser grande era acogedor. La carta era bastante amplia.

De entrante probamos el hummus con piñones, acompañado de crudités y pan. La verdad que estuvo bastante bueno, para dos personas la cantidad fue correcta.
Los principales que pedimos fueron:

Tortitas de tofu: De sabor bastante bueno, no me gustó demasiado que fuera frito, no noté apenas el tofu, venían acompañadas de una especie de all i oli. La cantidad de tortitas era suficiente para una persona.

Milanesa de soja: Más o menos como las tortitas de tofu, el sabor era muy bueno pero que fuera frito no me gustó demasiado. Venía acompañado de arroz con verduras. Me gustó más esto que las tortitas.

Todo eso 2 coca colas y un agua nos salió por 35€.

Volvería si no tuviese ninguna otra opción.

Pros: Carta amplia con muchas opciones. Precio razonable

Cons: Demasiados fritos para mi gusto.

Restaurante vegetariano/vegano con solera

Restaurante referente en Granada, creo que fue el primero de este tipo en la ciudad. Carta muy variada. Trato muy agradable, el camarero resolvió todas nuestras dudas y nos aconsejo muy bien. A destacar la ensalada especial Raíces.

Pros: Camarero muy atento y amable, Amplia variedad, Opciones vegetarianas, veganas y sin gluten.

Comida riquísima

Amplia carta con opciones muy ricas, y aunque es vegetariano hay muchas opciones veganas. Recomiendo el surtido de croquetas y los panecillos de aguacate. El trato es bueno y la comida sale rápido. Eso sí, los espaguetis no los recomiendo.

La comida está rica pero no deliciosa. La mayoría de la carta es vegetariana pero también hay oferta vegana. Merece la pena probar.

Greasy food and false advertising

We had the menu and a couscous, it was okayish but greassy and even being the first costumers of the day, one of the 2 offered vegan desserts in the daily menu (rice pudding with almond milk) was offered but not available. So only fruit for vegans😒

Pros: Service, reasonable priced

Cons: Lack of vegan options in daily menu

Good food, few vegan options

The place is really nice and the staff were kind, but I was quite disappointed by the scarce vegan options.
The food was well cooked, although rather slow. Some of the dishes were already cold by the time they arrived to the table.
I think my non vegan friends enjoyed it more than me.
The best thing were the chorizos, they were incredibly tasty.
The price was quite OK.

Pros: Yummy food

Cons: Few vegan options, Almost no vegan desserts.

Demasiadas salsas

Me decepcionó este sitio. Casi todo está embadurnado en salsa tanto que no te permite degustar la comida en sí. No me gusta. Eso sí el personal super amable.

Poor and overpriced

Just paid 11 euro for a plain salad and 9 euro for a side of hummus in this restaurant. No joke..!

variety of dishes but not as good quality

I was a bit disappointed of this restaurant. The food is ok but it needs something else... I think they don't look for the quality of products. It's just a normal menu, nothing special.

Pros: lots of dishes

Cons: not so good quality, too much soya products

Wide range of veggie options, but lacking quality

We had lunch in this vegetarian restaurant in Granada, which apparently was the first veggie establishment in the city. It has a huge menu, featuring things like 'meat'balls, veggie burgers, kebabs, salads, etc. Unfortunately the focus seems to be primarily on the range of options and the different mock meat products (tofu, soya, seitan, gluten) rather than on producing healthy, quality meals. We had a gluten kebab and the soya meatballs, both of which were fine but uninspiring. It is a nice little restaurant with friendly staff, so it is good that there is an option for local veggies and tourists. However, I feel that this place was proof that Spanish veggie restaurants need to focus on quality and creative cooking if they are going to do more than preach to the converted.

Pros: Big menu, Friendly staff, Nice environment

Cons: Focus on mock meats, Not many healthy options

The veggie classic in Granada

Raices was the first vegetarian restaurant in Granada, and still today is one of my favorite places. The food is well prepared and fresh, the service is friendly, and they have enough vegan options to keep this girl happy. Their daily menu is great value for money and changes every day. Dont be afraid to ask the waiter/waitress for recommendations, they are very knowledgeable :)

Paprika Restaurant, Granada, Spain

Restaurant opens rather late in the evening - 9.00 pm - about one hour later than most restaurants in Spain. Very large and would seat over 100 customers, but we were the only two customers. Prices moderate. Food tasty, but there seemed to be egg in every dish - even the mushroom soup. Menu did have an English translation. Staff do not speak English.

Pros: Moderate Price, Tasty food

Cons: Opens too late for dinner, Eggs in too many dishes

excellent, both times

The internal decoration is great (you can't miss the place walking along Picasso street - a faux yelow stone facade). The dinner dish is preceded by an absolutely excellent little tapa (starter) of fried pastry and a guacamoli-like cream/dip.
Don't miss their zumo fresco de naranja (freshly squeezed orange juice). A huge choice of salads, starters, main dishes and deserts. Also check out the really cool (and really cheap) earrings for sale hanging on the wall near the entrance (also some paintings/graphics, all for sale). Really friendly staff, excellent food quality and meal size, cosy atmosphere... all in all, an excellent restaurant.

Pros: food, design

Good Place a bit out of town

We were happy to find this place. depending on where you are staying, this might be a bit out of town restaurant for you.
And it does not open till 1:30pm and 9pm (I forgot the closing time).
We had a house salad and fried brown rice with Seitan and mushroom. the salad had some out of jar asparaguses and maybe frozen sweet corn which I find disappointing.
The brown rice was oily. But still so grateful to find a restaurant which offers something like seaweed, tofu, seitan etc.

Raices, Spain

100% veggie restaurant located about a 5 min walk across the river from the city centre. Well worth the stroll. I have been in few veggie restaurants with such a wide choice on offer on the menu. Lots to please lacto, ovo and vegan vegetarians. Menu in English is available but vegan veggie dishes on the menu aren't marked. Friendly service even with my still only very very basic grasp of Spanish (on my second visit I was particularly lucky as 1 of the watresses spoke good English). Open good hours and not over priced. Pleasantly decorated. I'd more than happilly eat there again. I considered giving it 5 stars out of 5.

Pros: Huge choice, Tasty food, Open good hours

Cons: Closed Sundays
