Perfect - Edit
the place is small so reserving a table is a must but it is absolutely worth it. The staff is kind and welcoming. It is the first vegan restaurant that I've tried in Italy where the dishes offered are not the "standard" ones but are refined and accessible. The prices are €14 for first courses and main courses and €15 for second courses, for desserts from €6 to €8. The dishes are rich and balanced in the macronutrients, the menu always varies, we tried the spinach ravioli with tempeh ragout and soy sauce (outstanding, even my omnivore boyfriend loved it), gnocchi with vegetables and crème fraîche, the Mexican dish (rice, beans, soy strips), the Indian dish (soy strips with curry and rice), oat meatballs with aubergines and tomatoes and rolls with sprouts and tofu and green beans. The second courses are served with whole bread and breadsticks and are definitely abundant (as are the first courses but especially the second courses, in the photo you can only see a part of them because we split them).
Read moreWe also really appreciated the choice of organic and refined drinks (from cola to beer), they bring water in a jug and I am extremely happy of this even if the price is the same as that of a bottle (and in my opinion it is a bit too much).
It is the second time that we come and we are always amazed, my family, who is not vegan, is the first to suggest coming here, and that says a lot.
Pros: Originality, Quantity, Staff
Cons: Impossible to find a con

Gemütliches Hotel in Meeresnähe mit veganem Frühstück und Restaurant - Edit
Freundliche Gastgeberin, sehr leckeres Essen (besonders das Curry). Das Hotelfrühstück gibt es bis um 11 Uhr, der Chappucchino ist sehr lecker, auch koffeinfrei möglich. Es gibt einen kleinen Laden mit Schokoriegeln, Pasta und kleinen Snacks.

Piccolo e curato ristorante vegano a Cattolica - Edit
E' stata una piacevolissima sorpresa scoprire la presenza di un ristorante vegano a Cattolica e, ordunque, abbiamo deciso di provarlo a cena. Il ristorante, che è anche albergo, si trova in una stradina perpendicolare a una delle vie principali delle città, in una via tranquilla. Ci sono pochi coperti e il menù non è vastissimo, il che ci garba: meglio pochi piatti cucinati bene che molti cucinati male. Il personale è gentile e disponibile. La location, nonostante il contesto urbano in cui si sviluppa, riesce ad avere la sua peculiarità "green". Per quanto concerne il cibo invece, le porzioni sono generose e i piatti saporiti e ben bilanciati. Prezzi nella media. Sicuramente una tappa da provare per tutti i vegani, e non, di passaggio a Cattolica.

Grazioso ristorantino tranquillo - Edit
Vengo a Cattolica da diversi anni e non avevo mai notato questo ristorante. Per fortuna ora l'ho scoperto!
Read moreIl locale è alla base di un hotel/pensione ma comunque con accesso privato.
Posto tranquillo e informale in una via secondaria a senso unico, lontano dal casino.
Personale gentile, educato e attento alle esigenze dei clienti; il mio collega voleva una semplice insalata fuori menù e non hanno avuto alcun problema ad accontentarlo.
Ho preso del tempeh di ceci con verdure con salsa teriyaki e un dolce alla nocciola. Tutto ottimo.
Porzioni generose.
Pros: Menù genuino senza prodotti processati , Servizio

Situated in a side street this quaint restaurant offers amazing Italian dishes. The menu changes daily and I think we tried everything. The kids loved their gnocchi and lasagna. This became our “go to” spot I Cattolica. Highly recommend!

Good Food and Good Vibes! - Edit
The place is super cute chill and cozy, with the option to eat outside when the weather it’s nice. The staff is very kind and welcoming, and you feel like at friends’ house in some ways. The menu changes with the meals of the day, and it’s really good and refined, not the usual!! Totally recommended

Not really a cozy place but nice people and good food - Edit
We found that even if the restaurant itself was no beautiful place it was worth the visit. The waiters/owners were really nice, explained the menu to us and served the dishes quickly. It was tasty and apparently organic ingredients are used. The dishes cost between 8 and 11€ which is quite expensive though. It's the only fully vegan option in this town and should therefore be supported in my opinion.

A gem amongst the traditional eateries - Edit
I’m happy to report that this place still exists. A small, charming affair at the bottom of Hotel Sylva, it is a haven in amongst all the more traditional pizzerias and fish restaurants. To be fair, there are also a couple of restaurants nearby which offer specifically vegetarian dishes and a couple of cafés advertising vegan gelati and brioches, so wondering if this is the more "bohemian" end of town, but RistoVegan stands out like a beacon. It is also signposted from each end of the street, so is relatively easy to find.
Read moreThe menu consists of a few dishes, mostly seitan, tofu or tempeh based, the items being based on a wide range of cuisines: Italian, Indian and Mexican for instance. The food itself is freshly prepared and the flavours are as good as any I have experienced anywhere.
My (non-veg) family were similarly impressed by the sheer tastiness of the food.
We could not see past the pannacotta for dessert, and were not disappointed, though there was also apple pie and a rice dessert also on offer.
The place appears to be run by two extremely friendly women (who speak good English), including the aforementioned Barbara, whom I understand to be responsible for the tasty flavours.
Definitely one not to be missed.
I believe it opens daily for lunch and dinner.

Probably closed - Edit
Went there in July/August 2013, and sadly there is no "Restobio" to be found at this address, and not anywhere else in the vicinity either. So either the address is wrong or the cafe is closed now.
Read moreWhich would be a sad loss, since being vegetarian (let alone vegan) is tricky in Cattolica. 90% of all pasta dishes and salads contain meat or fish. I really got the impression that in Italy, unlike most other European countries, there currently is a trend to add even more meat to dishes and not reduce it. For example, for many bars and cafes, a "Caprese" sandwich suddenly doesn't mean just tomato and mozzarella anymore - of course, ham must be added for that extra nutritional value. At Bologna airport, it was impossible to get a non-meat sandwich either at the Carrefour in the basement or at the snack bar right next to it - there's either ham, meat or tuna on everything. As far as I remember, this used to be different in the past.
Also, be advised that "piadina"/"piadine", a local speciality in Emilia Romagna - kind of like a flat sandwich bread with toppings - contains lard ("strutto")in the dough in 90% of the cases. I also found lard to be a common ingredient in prepacked pizza and sandwich snacks at Italian supermarkets.

Great vegan food from an awesome owner/operation - Edit
This is a small cafe in a public park that serves only vegan food for lunch and dinner. They are not open every day for dinner so call ahead just to be sure. Food is great! It is also a convenience grocery store with lots of vegan food items to take back to your hotel. They do have some non-vegan items like ice-cream, probably for the visitors who demand them. The owner/operator, Barbara is super friendly and was very accommodating on our two visits to this place. Highly recommended.
Read moreLunch: Ever day from 12:30-2:30pm
Dinner: Thursday-Saturday from 7:30pm-10pm.
But they are open other times for the grocery store items.
Pros: great food, grocery store, Very friendly owner/operator
Cons: none
