Vegetarian with lots of vegan options

Cañadú is a nice place to go to eat. It is a vegetarian restaurant with lots of vegan options. The food is tasty and good. There is a daily menu with 3 dishes and a dessert.

Pros: Daily menu, Tasty food, Central location in Malaga

okay food but positive experience

We had the apple and pine nut croquettes, the persa rice, aubergine au gratine (vegetarian) and dark chococlate flan. The food in my opinion was nothing to write home about, I really liked the salad that came along with the croquettes, and nothing tasted bad but it also didn't stand out in any way. The apple nut filling of the croquettes was creative though. Everything tastes and looks very homemade (relatable? like something you could achieve at home) and so is the ambiance of the restaurant, like a family restaurant. It's a cozy vibe. We also had the apple, pinneapple and orange mixed juice (with paper straws), which I appreciated for being authentically fresh, I usually don't like a thick consistency of drinks but it was fine in this case. The flan was okay but nothing impressive either, my omnivore company liked the vegetarian aubergine but the flan not that much. Now on a very positive note, though there were quite a lot of people we immediately got seated, service was really quick, we were done with eating in under an hour, and the waiters were very kind. Everything is clearly marked on the menu and they don't only offer a lot of vegan but also gluten free and sugar free dishes. Also the portions are huge, I sadly couldn't finish my rice because of it and had to pack up the left overs— sadly they only had plastic boxes for take away. And as I said the ambiance was quite good, I can imagine it's even better when the weather is good and you get to sit outside and enjoy the energy of the plaza. I appreciate them for their great service but wouldn't return as I wasn't that into the food.

Pros: Well labelled menu, Quick and kind service

Cons: Food mediocre

Excellent Vegan Options

We sat inside as it gets a little chilly in the late evening. We had the Surtido Croquetas for starters. This was a selection of Apple, Spinach and Mushroom filled croquettes. For mains we had the Arroz Persa and the Berenjena Gratina. Both were delicious. And for dessert we shared a lovely Tarta de Queso. Excellent service and pricing. Nice setting too.

Lovely spot to sit outside

We just had some salads which were good but there were plenty of options on the menu. I had green salad with avocado and walnut which was a good portion and had a nice dressing

Great experience

We have been on a Wed and a Fri and they have offered the daily menu.

This was our first visit and excited to try many things. We opted for the 4 course and would only do 3 the next time. The courses were a great size. Everything was delicious. The salads seemed fresh and the flavors in all courses really stood out. The chocolate flan was a real treat and melted in your mouth.


Our next visit was a La carte. Gazpacho, hummus, potato bravas and callos vegetarianos soup with chickpeas, mushrooms and almonds. Everything is great. For my palate, I would add more acid or salt. Just a little bit.

Don't miss the daily menu

I was surprised to find this vegan restaurant in Málaga. Most restaurants offer just fast food or a standard dish with meat replacement. This one has a daily menu during the day with 4 courses for 15 euro. And you can choose between 2 or 3 vegan options for each plate. Love the concept.

This menu is not available in the afternoon.

Great options for all tastebuds

Very surprised to find a fully vegetarian restaurant in the centre! My meat-eater husband(who grumbled at the start) was converted quickly! We had the soy meatballs with mushroom sauce, mushroom croquetas and the cantu burger. Huge portions for a good price! We’d come again ☺️

Pros: Big portions , Great value, Lots of choice

Good food for a good price

Menu offers enough choices for everyone. We had a soup and a salad. Both tasty. But there are many more options on the menu. Staff was very friendly. Would definitely come back.

Cena buona e sana

Da Canadu propongono sia pietanze tipiche andaluse in versione vegetariana e vegana: patatas bravas, gaspacho… sia piatti originali come la melanzana ripiena o le polpette di soia con salsa ai funghi. Tutto molto buono. Il posto è anche molto carino perché si affaccia su una piazzetta piena di alberi fioriti. Una nota di merito va anche alla loro carta dei vini, in particolare a quella dei vini naturali con i quali puoi accompagnare le pietanze. Lo consiglio

Pros: Cibo, Ambiente , Vini naturali

Fantastic food and location

Extensive menu, all vegetarian with vegan options (loads) clearly marked. Not too much junk food, but instead a decent, wholesome selection. Fabulous location on Plaza de la Merced. We had menu del dia at lunchtime which was such good value at 14Euros for 4 courses and all delicious. I had hummus and crudités, bean soup, couscous and vegetables with a curry sauce and baked apple. Yummy! We’ll be back!

Tourist trap

I don't know how this place has such high ratings. It's expensive, service is bad, the food is barely food. One of the few times I've barely touched food in a restaurant.

Cons: Terrible food , Bad service, High prices for what you get

Tourist trap

The food really tasted like nothing. We ordered the patatas bravas that were undercooked. For main we took the seitan, which basically looked and tasted like wet bread, with more undercooked potatoes and a salad that looked pre-made.
Service was slow and they didn't really care we didn't touch our food...
I really recommend to just avoid.

Very good food

We went there for lunch, on a Sunday. The place was full and I can understand the reason. We put our name on the list and we were able to get a table in maximum 20 minutes. Our dishes were very tasty, well presented and big portion. The menu has plenty of choice, vegetarian and vegan.

Okay food, pretty bad service

Full veggie menu, with a bunch of vegan options.
Seitan was too soft for my liking, soy chunks were nice. Bravas were good. The sauce isn’t what I expected it to be comparing to the usual sauces, but not bad.

Would go again if there wasn’t anything else available nearby.

Service started out good, but after they cleaned our table there was no one to be found. We wanted to order dessert but there was no one around. Had to go to the entrance to get someone for the bill.

Pros: Many options

Cons: Staff
