Comida sosa y cara - Edit
No van acordé la calidad y el precio, raciones grandes eso sí, pero muy básico todo. Nos hemos pedido el risotto y unos spaguetti Cabrales y nada del otro mundo, el risotto soso y no solo porque le falte sal, y la pasta pues eso, pasta con queso que te puedes hacer tú perfectamente en casa y lo mismo te queda hasta mejor. 9€ por plato es una locura.

Apañado vegetariano - Edit
Un lugar muy amplio con platos clásicos vegetarianos sin mucha imaginación. Tomamos el risotto y los rollos vegetales y un agua grande total 24 euros.

De vegetal solo tiene el nombre - Edit
La carta de carnes es más del doble de larga que la vegetariana, y dentro de la vegetariana, las opciones veganas son escasas.

El desayuno Andaluz está muy bueno y a buen precio. Con el café tienen opción de leche de soja, cosa que en Asturias escasea.

Que quiten el cartel de vegetariano - Edit
Lo de restaurante vegetariano es una broma. Sirven pollo, lomo, atún... El sándwich "vegetal" lleva de todo menos vegetales. Con las tapas de las bebidas te ponen carne, y si les pides algo que no lleve te dicen que solo tienen cosas "normales". Celebramos un cumpleaños y a cada plato peor, comida agria, recalentado de microondas y no tenían apenas opciones veganas. O se actualizan o quitan el cartel de vegetariano, porque es una tomadura de pelo.
Read morePros: La cerveza estaba fría
Cons: No hay apenas opciones veganas , Sirven carne, incluso en los pinchos de la cerveza, Prostituyen la palabra vegetariano 😐

Mediocre food for high price - Edit
All of the vegan restaurants were closed on the day we wanted to have lunch. We decided to give a try to Twist Cafe as it was nearby. Long story short, the food is not great. The staff is nice and helpful, the atmosphere lacks character though. It's not the cozy place where you wanna bring your partner to have a quiet dinner. We ordered a lunch menu that was way overpriced (15 eur) compared to its quality. I was also disappointed to hear the microwave's "ding" each time before the next course was brought to us.

Le han pasado por la derecha - Edit
La actual variedad de oferta vegana y vegetariana en Gijón ha dejado al Twist muy atrás en el ranking de los mejores veganos de Gijón.

Gran variedad en el menú de dia - Edit
Me sorprendió la cantidad de platos veganos y vegetarianos que tenían en su menú diario. Me pedí unos espaguetis con verdura y leche de coco y una tarta de zanahoria y la verdad que me gustó muchísimo.
Read moreOtro día elegí para llevar un sándwich vegano de tofu que era más bien soso. Pero para una excursión y salir del paso no estaba mal.
La decoración nos pareció muy guay ya que es estilo retro bar clásico de madera y además está muy céntrico enfrente del mar.
Lo recomiendo sobre todo Por su variedad de platos... yo vi bastantes opciones veganas. Así que quedé contenta.
Pros: En el menú de dia varias opciones veganas, Zona céntrica , No muy caro
Cons: Sándwich vegano poco sabroso

Comida extrañamente sabrosa - Edit
A mí este sitio no me desagrada, pero a mi chico sí. Es un sitio donde un omnívoro podría sentirse cómodo porque los sabores se parecen extrañamente a lo omnívoro en algunos platos (como si usasen alguna base de alimento previamente procesado para cocinar, que no digo que lo hagan, pero da sensación de poco casero).
Read moreComo positivo la variedad y la facilidad de pillarlo abierto y con mesa libre.

Creo que más bien tiene que ver con que mas del 90% de los platos que tienen no son vegetarianos ni de lejos... Imagínate dónde cocinan los platos que si lo son 🙄

Mejorable - Edit
De las.opciones venganas del.menú tomé la crema de verduras. Estaba buena pero nada excepcional. La hamburguesa de quinoa parecía una pasta de alubias negras tostada por ambos lados.y sin apenas sabor y no llegué a encontrar la quinoa. Acompañada de algo de ensalada ya aliñadsa y un arroz pasado, seco y que parecía lo que había quedado pegado al fondo de la.cacerola.
Read moreNo arriesgue a tomar postre.
Pros: Está en el.centro y al lado de la playa, El trato de las camareras fue muy bueno
Cons: Decoración anticuada, Comida muy mejorable

Iffy burger - Edit
I had the vegetarian burger and the flavor was excellent, but the texture was strange and it didn't come on a bun. My friend had the vegetarian spaghetti and it was out of this world.

Heaven for Vegans, and Our Omni Friends Too! - Edit
I was in Gijón a few days ago, working as a musician on a one-nighter. I was impressed to find that Spain has changed, and that it's now easy to find vegan food. Not just anything, but of a very high standard. I started with minestrone, and then went onto stuffed pepper - all so tasty. The service was friendly, helpful and attentive, and the rustic atmosphere was also very enjoyable.

breakfast - Edit
Arrived at breakfast time but only one veggie option of toast, very nice though and good to have the option of soya milk. Checked out the substantial veggie lunch/dinner menu and it looked great, only wish we hadn't been leaving that morning. Great location and venue, I can imagine this place being very atmospheric of an evening.

Vegan Food in Gijon at Twist & Vegetal - Edit
Twist & Vegetal is a mid price restaurant spread over 3 floors. Nice and roomy, with an extensive vegetarian menu. Our Spanish is embarrassingly poor but the friendly staff understood that we were vegan and showed us the options that were available or that they could prepare fresh. Very accommodating.
Read moreThe food was very tasty and fresh, although a tad 'old school' (I had stuffed aubergine my partner opted for stuffed roast pepper).
A pleasant evening in a nice atmosphere. The place would certainly benefit from labelling vegan options on the menu and maybe offering more contemporary meals.
I would certainly recommend Twist & Vegetal.
Pros: Friendly service, Pleasant atmosphere , Vegan options
Cons: Also sells meat, Vegan options a bit 'old school', Vegan options not clear on the menu

Satisfying - Edit
The vegetarian menu del dia is tasty and good value, with about 1/3 vegan options. The food is wholesome and filling with Moroccan and European themes. We had an Arabic salad (greens, dried fruit and nuts), vegetable soup, soy meatballs, and stuffed tomatoes. The mains came with rice and cous cous. The vegetarian restaurant is downstairs in the day time, but upstairs at night. It was busy at lunch when we went, but very quiet when we returned in the evening the next day. The upstairs cafe is huge, the downstairs restaurant a bit more intimate. The staff are friendly. A nice place, perhaps needs a few more vegan options.
