Very nice vegan lunch with two different options for starter-, main dish and dessert! Food is genuine, simple and healthy! By design the dishes are for take away and best enjoyed on the beach next door.
Absolutely delicious food! I'd read about Mandala in advance, as there are not many vegan / plant based restaurants around this area. Mandala has a few set options each day, on the day we were there we shared all of them between our party, they were all exceptional. Starters, mains and deserts. The proprietor was extremely helpful in explaining what was in each dish, our Spanish is bad, so she helpfully explained in English, which was very much appreciated. Absolutely recommend Mandala!
Excellent dishes, me and my girlfriend ordered two days in a row and it was a blast ! Daily dishes and affordable prices plus it’s the only vegan restaurant in L’Escala. Fresh ingredients from the nearby marketplace, no wait time as she prepares and then heat the food for you as you place your order. Almost perfect, I just wish she open a restaurant in Toulouse Oh and she speaks French very nicely
Only one fully vegan place in the area. Very tasty food with reasonable prices. Highly recommended.
We had a daily menu twice here during our stay (both times take-out). They have vegetarian/vegan versions of traditional meals. Everything is clearly home-made and delicious. I highly recommend this place, whether you are vegetarian/vegan or just looking for something healthy and good!
Super nice place, vegan and vegetarian friendly. I did not ask, but most probably gluten free options (or at least you can call and ask). We got pumpkin and banana cake. It was soooo good. Friendly owner doing the world a bit better. Small space to eat, but grear experience if you take it and eat next to the beach.
Homemade food, super tasty, healthy, vegan, lovely little restaurant with incredible different creations, from a wonderful lady, who is warm and welcoming. See you soon again
What a wonderful vegan gem in L'Escala. The owner was wonderful and kind and her homemade vegan food super delicious. Next time we go to l'escala we will difinetely eat here again and recommend everybody who wants a healthy vegan "real" meal made with love to eat here.
