An oasis in the desert

Everything was delicious, starting with the olives (the best I've ever had). I thought the portions would be tapa style, but each one was a proper meal. And all yummy!

Cómodo y delicioso

Excelente restaurante vegetariano/vegano con gran variedad de platos a un precio más que decente, todos deliciosos y aunque en apariencia no muy voluminosos, en realidad llenan mucho. El trato fue realmente exquisito y el local es muy acogedor.

Pros: Trato absolutamente impecable, Comida riquísima a buen precio, Local muy acogedor

Cons: Sin reserva puede no haber sitio

Qué cena más agradable

Cuando se hacen las cosas con cariño, salen bien. Se nota que el dueño pone interés en aquello que hace para que la velada sea redonda. Sin ser un restaurante espectacularmente bonito, si es muy agradable. La ambientación y la música de fondo invitan a pasar un buen rato.
Las raciones son abundantes y están muy bien de precio. Al existir medias raciones te da la oportunidad de probar varios platos. Hay unos cuantos platos veganos (incluidos postres). Probamos los nachos, la musaka, los champiñones rellenos (de 10) y el burrito. Sin ser platos que requieran alta elaboración estaban muy, muy buenos. El pan de quinoa también muy rico.
Probablemente, la mejor opción vegana de Mérida.

Pros: El trato amable/ambiente, La comida, El precio

Delicious desert

This is a veggie and vegan restaurant. Prob a about 70/30 veggie/vegan. Lunch tapas and cakes really -probably not for dinner. We had burrito stuffed with red beans which was lovely and then some mushroom croquettes which were delicious. Unfortunately I found out after they weren’t vegan as they contained traces of milk. But that was entirely my fault I didnt read the menu properly. For desert we had the applie pie with vegan ice cream which although the pie was cold which was a bit disappointing was still delicious. My wife had a banana cake which she said was superb. It was very busy when we came here and the staff a little flustered but the service was prompt and friendly nonetheless. It’s just a pleasure to find somewhere in Spain where we can comfortably eat vegan food and when the food is great it’s a bonus. Recommended. Ps we saw a few people have the moussaka which looked lovely.

Pros: Delicious, Good range of options

Cons: Bit busy but that’s good to see

Amplia variedad de platos veganos riquísimo. Buena atención. Un refugio para vegetarianos/veganos que quieren comer dignamente en Mérida. Es estupendo. Recomiendo reservar, especialmente en verano durante el Festival de Teatro Clásico.

Pros: Platos riquísimos, Variedad, Precios adecuados

Não existem grandes opções veganas em Mérida, portanto não podemos ser muito exigentes 😛
Comi o burrito vegano e fiquei satisfeito.

El mejor de Extremadura

Las opciones veganas están deliciosas, preguntad que se pueden veganizar muchos de los vegetarianos. Los postres son una locura.

Many vegan options + tasty dessert

Although it's a vegetarian place, there were numerous vegan options (some of the dishes were originally vegetarian but could be adapted into a vegan version). Unlike other places, many of the vegan options actually included proteins, which is much appreciated. The dessert was delicious.

Pros: Options with plant-based proteins, Pet-friendly, Desserts

Está genial encontrar en Mérida opciones veganas que no se limiten a una parrillada de verduras. La moussaka muy buena y el servicio amable y rápido

Todo buenísimo

Pese a que estaba a tope de gente, nos atendieron estupendamente. El restaurante es vegetariano pero son varios los platos que se pueden hacer veganos, sustituyendo el queso por queso vegano por ejemplo. Teniendo además en cuenta que en Mérida es muy difícil encontrar opciones veganas, este lugar es perfecto.

Good vegan options

The vegan options are quite limited in Merida so we opted for the shangri-la. Nice place, some choice of vegan food.

The burrito was a real bummer, did not taste good and didn‘t fill the hole in my belly…
The salad with mushrooms was great. Plain saitan meat with sauce was a bit boring without any sides.

Amazing cake as dessert surely makes up for the bad burrito. They even had vegan vanilla ice cream for the apple cake!

Tienen variedad de platos vegetarianos y veganos, también postres. Es comida sabrosa y casera. Siempre están innovando y tienen platos diferentes fuera de carta. La presentación de sus platos así como la decoración del lugar está muy cuidado. Te hacen sentir cómoda.

Pretty veg spot with interesting dishes

This vegetarian serves international as well as Spanish regional dishes, with seemingly many vegan options. We ordered the burritos, which came as two neat little wraps, filled with really nicely-seasoned TVP and vegan cheese, grilled on a sandwich press. We also got the fricandó, a very savory Catalan dish of seitan, with mushrooms and almonds.

Everything was delicious, served with quinoa bread. We ordered a cocktail as well, and kombucha from Extremadura. It's also open relatively early for lunch.

All excellent!

I can't give 5 stars selling animal products, but everything was surprisingly excellent: service, food, ambience,...
One of the best vegetarian restaurants I tried in my life. There are several vegan options and all delicious!
We had soy burritos out of the carta and vegan moussaka to share. I suggest to change the cheese because does not melt very well. I tried better vegan cheese.
I also had the fricando, half portion as an entree. If you like stews, don't miss this! It does not have stock, by the way.
You can have half portions of some plates. It is a great idea if you want to share or not.
The chocolate and berries cake was spectacular!!

Pros: Delicious vegan plates, Excellent service

Cons: We want more vegan options for next time

Great food. Comfy seating. Good spot.

My husband and I ate here twice this week. The food was excellent. Generous serving sizes. Lots of vegan options. Hubby ordered vegetarian meals and I went with vegan options. His lasagna was incredible. The chocolate tart I had was decadent. We don't speak Spanish and the guy who looked after us was very kind and patient as we tried to figure out what we wanted. Soy latte was delicious too.

Pros: Reasonable price, Excellent quality food, Lots of options

100% recomendable.

Un trato estupendo y muy buena atención.
Los platos riquísimos, sobre todo la musaka.
Les dijimos que si podíamos pasar con nuestro perro y preguntaron en la sala que si alguien era alérgico a los perros que venía una pareja con su mascota y nadie puso ningún impedimento. Todo un acierto sin duda.
¡¡Si visitas Mérida no dudes en pasar por este lugar!!

Great

Has some of the nicest salads I've had, don't be afraid to ask for vegan cheese as a substitute if you see a non vegan salad that looks good, and the raspberry and cranberry cake is delicious.
