Excellent! - Edit
We had a wonderful experience here during our trip to Spain. The waitstaff was very nice and attentive and, most importantly, put up with our poor language skills. The food was excellent!! It is a little pricey, but worth it .

Good Vegan Ice-cream, awful food - Edit
Either we ordered the wrong food - or it's not for our taste. I could have sworn the noodles & cashew dish was coated in Vegemite. Awful tasting pretentious food. The Vegan ice-cream rocked though.

very nice. 40% vegan... I wish it was 100% vegan - Edit
very loud when I visited. but worth it. I had a small tapa with a bomba de la Barcelona and olives. this bomb was very nice. I had to order more of it. and the selva Negra vegan cake.. wow. I would come back for it.
Read moreit was amazing.
which shows the potential of this place to cook more vegan. or of course go full vegan.
it is always bittersweet to have amazing vegan food at a place that supports the cruel industries of dairy and eggs
Pros: very nice vegan food
Cons: supports the dairy and eggs industry.

This team knows what they're doing - Edit
Me and my friend decided to give their new year's eve menu a go, and we were indeed happy we did! It consisted of four starters, including a lovely quinoa salad with berries and miso dressing, corazón partío (artichoke with tempeh), and other delicacies. As a main course we both chose the lasagne, which we found to be juicy and yummy! Our opinions diverge when it comes to the dessert, a millefeuille that I enjoyed just as much as everything else, while my friend felt somewhat disappointed. For 50 euros, and including an appetizer, some drinks and (sadly bland) truffles, it was certainly a very good deal, especially for such an, ahem, special night.

The waiters were nice, but during lunchtime they are pretty busy, so you have to chase them a bit to order/pay.

Busy, popular, so many options - Edit
Recommend by Vegans, vegetarians and non vegetarians. This is a popular and well known place in Barca for locals as well as tourists.
Read moreThey have a long table for those dining alone. Great idea. Love this. Sat with an Astro physicist in town for an international conference.. fantastic!!!
The waiter was extremely attentive and service fast.
So many options, probably 60/40 vegetarian/ vegan.
I actually went twice during my visit just to try more.
Had an eggplant roll creation to start, really yummy and beautifully presented, then a tofu and eggplant dish that was crispy and delicious. Both course had great flavour, well balanced and quite hearty.
Ordered the Mille Feuille for dessert, sadly this wasn’t great. Tasted waxy and not fresh somehow. This dish should be light and delicate-a definite miss.
That said I went back a second time just to try the lasagne which was fantastic!!
Overall I loved this place, great energy.
Doing vegetarian and vegan food really well.
Love that non veg people eat here too just because it’s good food!
Pros: So many options , Yummy food, Service staff very into it
Cons: Pastry dessert was average to poor

Top vegan cuisine - Edit
Surely one of the most popular and high quality places on town. Loads of vegan options and a lot of experience as this place is opened since the 80s, at least the original place of course. Very wide place in central Barcelona, the food is not only tasty but very healthy. Many vegan and gluten free options

Pricey but delicious. - Edit
If you are on a budget holiday then may be worth giving this place a miss however if you are wanting a three course meal and happy to spend the money then this is the place to do so. We had nachos and bruschetta to start, lasagne for main and a chocolate cake and a snowflake cake for dessert. The portions look small but are surprisingly filling and honestly we could have done without dessert. The lasagne was a definite recommend which is lucky as it is one of the few vegan options (I don't like salad). My partner asked if he could have the seitan burger without cheese but turned out there was egg in the burger. Plenty of options if you are vegetarian. This place has the best tasting tomatoes so when they ask if you want bread say yes to with tomatoes. It cost us 60 euros for the starter, main, dessert and drinks which is more expensive than we would usually pay but I don't regret it. One thing I will comment on is the service- it's not bad service and the waiters are very helpful however depending on how you like your eating experience you will love or hate it. The service is very quick on the upside this means you never wait long for your food on the downside this means that you can't sit and enjoy the experience as much as you will be finished quite quickly. This didn't bother us but I can see why people might feel rushed or might not like this. Just a tip as well- they will charge for water for the table.

Good But Not Great - Quality Does Not Match The Price - Edit
Read moreThe food in this restaurant is good. Not great. Not very good. But good. If you have a lot of money to burn and do not know how to cook and are not too picky, you will love it here. But the food is extraordinarily overpriced and the value (of both the culinary quality, the flavor, and the quantity) do not match the price tag. The chef/owner obviously thinks a lot of herself, and has even written a cookbook. But for some reason she does not even know how to make guacamole...For some reason she thinks guacamole is just mashed avocado...And when you pay 15 euros for 3 small tacos and guacamole is one of the few things you are getting with them, you would expect it be real guacamole, with flavor. But what I got had absolutely no flavor at all. They had not added any kind of seasonings what so ever. Not even salt or lime juice. As a chef myself I know that this is not technically guacamole, and should not be called guacamole. I'm not sure where Teresa trained, but something is off. And also the tomatos that were in my taco's did not seem fresh at all. And one of my tacos did not have any cilantro on it, which is listed as one of the key ingredients. But my food did taste good and I enjoyed it. But at these prices I feel as though the food needs to be held to a much higher standard than it is. So I have to take off one star for the fake flavorless "guacamole", and one star for the outrageous prices that do not match the quality or quantity.
Pros: Vegan Options, Healthy, Tasty
Cons: Overpriced, Fake Flavorless Guacamole, Small Portions

High expectations, not fulfilled - Edit
Our dinner was good (although the lasagne was hardly warm) but as Teresa Carles is praised as being one of the best vegetarian restaurants in Barcelona (and one of the oldest), we were disappointed, both culinairy and also regarding the atmosphere
Read moreIt felt like a ‘factory’, and we did not have a relaxed dinner. Staff was running around and hardly took the time to give some advice. Everything was quick-quick, rushed-rushed. They were practically running from one end of the restaurant to the other. Despite the restaurant not even being full.
We had high expectations as Teresa Carles is often mentioned as the place to go dining in Barcelona for vegans, but we left a bit underwhelmed. Pity.

Pros: accessible, wheelchair accessible toilet, vegan options clearly mentioned, price OK
Cons: staf very rushed and running around, comfort, lasagna was not warm, food not really special

nice space and tasty! - Edit
a few choice vegan items on the menu, i had the Rossejat de Fideus, sort of a pasta with dots of home made cashew cream on the top. it was very flavorful if, which could be a good thing, a little on the small portion size. we ordered a basket of bread to help the meal and our satisfaction along. good service in a nice modern space of brick walls and a warehouse/industrial look. not overly friendly service but near acceptable. dinner at 9pm was crowded as it is most places in Spain.

Lovely! - Edit
I love this restaurant, its one of my Barcelona favorites! Food quality and presentation is amazing. However they use a bit too much garlic and onions in food (which I'm not a fan of due to GERD) but its very pleasing. There is a create your own salad which I love! And they have delicious guilt-free desserts! The atmosphere of the restaurant is very calm and pretty; its full of candles. I love candles! :)

one of our favourite places - Edit
For us, the best thing about Teresa Carles are the salads. Choose one from the menu, or even better, ask for the salad order form and “design your own”, up to 10 ingredients dressing for €12, comes in a massive bowl, piled to the top, enough to satisfy the healthiest of appetites! Don’t order a side or starter!
Read moreAlternatively, the menu is loaded to tasty hot dishes, both vegan and vegetarian options.
Service was a bit poor, but has recently improved quite notably. Usually busy, and in summer months, booking is recommended, although we often go without and they always seem to find us a table.
Venue is clean, modern and spacious, although not so cosy unless you get one of the few booths at the back. It’s quite a big place, so it gets noisy.
All in all, a great place for healthy / tasty food, with good portions at a decent price. A regular spot for us. We used to tolerate the poor service because the food is so great, so we are very happy that the owners / management seem to have addressed that issue. If you haven’t been in a while, it’s worth giving TC another chance, especially if you are weary of the typical vegan burger joints and prefer something a bit healthier!
Pros: custom salads, big portions, healthy and tasty
