    Hakuna Matata - Catalan-style rice with 'butifarra'

    Top-notch vegan Spanish cuisine and one of the best meals we had in Madrid…read more We arrived at 8pm right at opening on a Saturday night without a reservation. We were told we could dine in if we were done by 9:15pm -- no problem. There's a 10% increase in price if you sit out on the street, which is worth it, as it's very nice out there. My wife & I ordered 3 dishes to share, which was more than enough. We got: -Avocado tartare, quinoa, mango chutney and arugula (€11). This dish was the perfect appetizer. Fluffy quinoa along with avocado is the main part of the dish, with plenty of arugula and delectable mango sauce that never becomes too sweet. Wonderful dish. -Heura chorizo with verdejo wine (€11.50). This was the standout dish for us. The heura sausage was impeccably spiced, quite smoky, and complex, served with roasted potatoes and peppers, and served in a remarkable verdejo wine sauce that we needed some bread to pop it up with. Amazing flavours all round. -Catalan-style rice with 'butifarra' (€13.50). This was advertised as "like paella", so we gave it a try. The sausage is Beyond Meat but wonderfully spiced that I didn't recognize it. The rice is cooked and spiced beautifully with saffron, with lots of small chunks of red and green peppers. The dish also came with a sublime orange-y yellow sauce of some sort that was the perfect accompaniment to the rice and sausage. Phenomenal dish. All in all, just fantastic vegan food that is worth going out of your way to try and planning for (you might need a reservation). Service is decent -- the usual nonchalant, not-in-a-hurry Spanish service. Highly recommended.

    After a long evening of drinking, we needed a casual, late-night meal. We stopped in just after…read more11pm for some pizza. They were totally full when we arrived, and seemed to not want to let us know that there would likely be tables available soon. We asked to do take-out, which they enthusiastically obliged; 3 minutes after we ordered, many tables freed up. Lol. We got a barbacoa pizza and a vegetable pizza (each €14). The pizza came out in about 10 minutes. Both were tasty, especially the vegetable pizza, which had wonderfully marinated vegetables (peppers, zucchini, mushrooms and onions). The barbacoa was nice too, having vegan bacon, corn, and BBQ sauce. Solid spot for vegan pizza and other casual foods but done creatively and with class. Recommended.

    Pura Vida is definitely one of my favorite vegan spots in Madrid, and let me tell you why. Pura…read moreVida knows what they're doing when it comes to vegan food. Their menu is a great mix of classic Spanish eats (tortilla de patata, bocadillos) and crowd pleasers, like pizza and burgers. My favorites: -- Bocata de Calamares (8,50€) // This is a Spanish classic, and it's essentially a sandwich featuring calamari rings with a cream cheese-like spread on a baguette. Before you knock it, try it. It's literally so good, and the one at Pura Vida is easily the best vegan version I've had. -- Lágrimas de Heura (6,95€) // So, these are basically chick'n nuggets made with the most popular vegan meat substitute in Spain, Heura. They're perfectly sized little morsels, kind of like popcorn chicken size, and fried to an ideal crisp. The agave-mustard dip on the side is also incredible and balances out the richness. -- Pincho de Tortilla de Patata (3,50€) // If you haven't tried tortilla de patata in Spain, I'm not sure where you've been eating. It's a must. Out of all the vegan ones I've tried in Madrid, Pura Vida's is my favorite. -- Alemana Pizza (12,95€) // My friend was craving a pizza, so we went for the Alemana which is pretty simple with tomato sauce, cheese and vegan sausage. The sauce has a surprising depth of flavor and the cheese is good, too. I wouldn't hesitate to share a pizza again if I were in the mood for one. So, now that we've established that the food at Pura Vida is great, let's move on! Overall, I really like the vibe at Pura Vida because it's laidback but slightly above a true taberna, so it's a good spot if you want a solid dinner or just a bite and drink on the terraza. The only reason I docked a star is because the service can definitely lack. The servers often get overwhelmed or simply don't come by for like, literally, 30 minutes at a time some days. Price-wise, some dishes are a little higher than others but for the most part, it's reasonable. Pura Vida will continue to be one of our go-to places in Madrid, especially when we're craving some Spanish classics and a solid pour of vermut.
