    Blueberry raspberry kombucha
    Michael T.

    This was the absolute best vegan meal I have ever had. Granted I had one small plate of croquettes, however it came with homemade bread, a small alfalfa salad with olive oil and salt. I ordered a wonderful blueberry raspberry kombucha as well. The second floor restaurant is spacious, quiet, and airy. Better vegan food than Amy I've ever had in the SF Bay Area.

    I absolutely loved this place! We ordered Vegan Croquettes, Vegan Pizza and a Chickpea Tomato Stew and all 3 were perfect! Approved even by the Non-Vegans I dragged along. The Staff was very friendly and the interior lovely and bright! 10/10! :-)

    Amazing vegetarian food. We are vegetarians and it has been difficult to find vegetarian food in Spain but this restaurant is a blessing for us. Amazing food at good prices. Everything was awesome. Ambience is amazing. Good place to click pictures also.

    My labs vegan bowl (what's left of it) and a new small pal supervising!

    Miracle - So good! This is Fideua which is slightly lighter/not as filling as rice, very tasty!

    Took a light stroll down Rambla Nova just off the main square nearby the seaside to have a…read morecappuccino to properly kick off the afternoon. The waitress was very friendly and although technically lunch isn't served until 1pm (a typical Catalan tradition, especially on Sundays) she offered the menu plus the signage was already out to lure hungry passerbys. This month happens to be a very busy Tarragona Festival and seating in old city is difficult to come by, so it was truly delightful to have open seats, have prompt service & have many options of paella for 1 or 2 people. Note: A lot of places across Spain have a minimum requirement of 2 or more for the kitchen to prepare any paella but just like the name, the Miracle wants you to order individually or to share two different varieties of paella. My foodie tastebuds are very satisfied! Near the end, the manager came by to say "Etas Bien?" Indeed it was! While it might not stand out from curbside appeal, it's definitely a standout experience in the quaint little town of Tarragona!

    We had a great dinner in Tarragona here. It was pretty packed when we got to the restaurant around…read more8pm, and the owner told us to come back after 45 minutes. We were expecting to put our names down but he said he'd remember our faces! The restaurant is right on a beautiful & lively walkway by the sea, so 45 min went by quickly. We were starving by then but the food was definitely yummy - I got the prawn pesto tagliatelle, which was creamy and fresh. My friend got a vegetarian salad, and we both got glasses of red sangria, which was fruity and quite strong lol. I will say they didn't have that many appealing vegetarian options, but that seems to be the case in most of Spain. Service & ambience were on point too, and the owner made an effort to make us feel at home, would recommend this place

    Situated in the plaza, along with about 15 other seemingly similar restaurants, Piscolabis has…read moreample outside seating and a few tables indoors as well. They have the standard menu del dia for lunch (a primo and secondi, along with sangria or wine or beer and a postre (dessert)) for around 10 euro. They also have lots of tapas that can be ordered a la carta. If you are vegetarian, you'll be fine. They have a pretty decent number of things for you -- the spinach fajita stands out as an interesting option, featuring thick rounds of a local goat cheese along with quince paste (membrillo) atop flour tortillas. Now, if you're vegan like me... I just hope you like gazpacho. Fortunately, I love it, which is good because I lived on it for about 10 days. The variety served by Piscolabis is quite good (make sure to ask for it "sin jamon" aka with out ham) and the portion is enormous. I also tried their mushroom risotto and a delicious carpaccio of garlicky eggplant. I'm sure it didn't hurt that I was accompanied by a colleague who is a native Catalan and person friend of the owner, but they were very accommodating to my special requests for this or that. YMMV.

    This is all about what you order. We ordered from the "standard" menu and got salads and calamari…read moreand pork. Both were good - not great. Others in the group did not enjoy theirs - but they did not try to get local cuisine. Service was good. On a do over, I'd try something off of the main plaza.

    Piscolabis - Desert called chocolate cake. It's really a pastry with chocolate flavored cream and chocolate drizzle with fresh cream. So-so.

I guess it could be that travel heightens the tastebuds as well as the sensation of caffeine. But this the flavor of the damn things! They are awesome in Spain--when I get back home I'm going to order a Cafe Español and see what happens (read blank stares). But enough about the coffee. I ordered the Avocado Toast and a Veggie Portobello with Soy Mayo. Both were good. The toast the avocado was layered on made Texas Toast look like Rhode Island toast...well maybe Ohio Toast (Texas toast can still be pretty thick). But this slice of pan tostado was a brick. Although it was well toasted and packed a crunch, I'm not referring to the hardness--it's the size I'm referencing. And I'm convinced they put an entire avocado on this thing. Sprinkled with chia and flax it was a plant-based marvel. But the taste award goes to the Veggie Portobello with Soy Mayo. This little beauty was so gorgeous and tasty I called mine Jessica (read my wife). The soy mayo was was treat and with the sun-dried tomatoes and slices of fresh tomatoes cuddling right up with those wonder-inspiring mushrooms, it had to be one of the best things I've had on my trip. For those interested, I came for breakfast on a Monday morning. So it was very quiet, music playing overhead, the swishing swirl of an espresso machine, and the occasional clank of a fork on a plate, and that was it. Old gentlemen came in and sat at the bar. At one point a gentlemen and lady had a slightly ardent discussion of Catalonian politics but then it was ended and the ambient sounds returned. There is a bar and a substantial wine selection. Also there is outdoor seating on the plaza in front which, appears to be for later in the day when it will warm up a bit. If your travel itinerary ever brings you to Lledia, you should let your taste for good vegetarian and vegan options bring you here.
