Good curry, poor service

The food here was very delicious…when we eventually got it. To be fair to them I think they were quite understaffed and the waiter (who I think was the manager) told us his staff had let him down. But he also said he didn’t realise we were waiting at one point. We were there a long time, much longer than a meal should take. The place was busy and they had to turn people away at one point so it’s clearly popular.

Overall the food was very good. They offer a full 2 page vegan menu on top of the standard menu. They got one part of our order wrong providing us with soya meat curry instead of a vegetable curry but it was represented in the bill thankfully.

Overall we would go back, but probably for a take away this time. Maybe we were just unlucky going on an understaffed evening.

EDIT: we decided to try a second time as a takeaway and the food was even better. Incredible taste and thankfully this time there was no delay as we just collected at the agreed time.

Would be 5* if I could!

A 'last ditch hope' for dinner one night turned into one of the best meals of the holiday!

The absolutely delicious, and clearly freshly made food is just the start of how great this place is!

Instantly was welcomed in and as I asked if vegan options were available, the waiter was extremely accomodating and reassuring. It's IMMACULATE, especially in comparison to the majority of businesses near by.

Vegan options are so great, there's plenty to choose from.

The staff were just fantastic, clearly very passionate about their food and you could tell they wanted us to enjoy our meal when we were choosing our food and making recommendations etc. Such a great experience, 5* for me ⭐

Pros: Lots of vegan options , Immaculately clean, Staff were phenomenal

Amazing vegan options!

Would give a 5 if I could! Separate vegan menu with lots of options including various curry options (tikka , korma , dhansak , bhuna, maybe more but I can’t remember!) you can choose from a selection of mock meats to have in your curry as well as vegetables. This is the 2nd time I have been here and the menu has increased from my last visit 3 years ago. I opted for the korma with veggies. My 1st korma since being vegan and I think it is one of the best curries I have ever eaten! The owner was really friendly and we had a chat about the curries as I was curious how it was made to be creamy. The food was all extremely delicious , hot , served quickly with a friendly face. Highly highly recommend if you are in costa adeje!

Pros: Separate vegan menu, Choice of mock meat of veggies, Good price

Cons: Cannot sit outside but not a problem for us

Excellent

Myself and my partner went here yesterday and we absolutely loved it. Entire vegan menu with plenty of choice. My partner had the fake prawn saag with vindaloo spice, and I had the the fake meat Rogan Josh at Madras spice. Absolutely stunning.
The starters were good too, tried onion baji and the pepper soy.
The owner is vegetarian who really loves catering for vegans, we felt well looked after

Pros: Whole vegan menu, Friendly staff, Delicious food

Cons: Quite pricey

Need a curry place like this in UK

Bit of trouble finding the restaurant but once we did my eyes lit up with the two page vegan menu ❤️

I struggle in the UK to get a curry that is mild enough, they always say korma is what I need but I have to emphasise vegan and no diary so imagine my delight when that's not the case here.

I opted for vegan pickle tray and poppadoms which had a nice selection and i was warned on the green chilli one. My bf enjoyed the kick in that one. I sampled a dip of it and it was way too spicy 🔥

Had a mild saag curry with coco rice. Admittedly the colour of coco rice surprised me. You need to flip through the menu to understand how the sauces are flavoured. Was a fab meal and wished we had places with this variety in my part of UK.

The staff were really friendly and helpful too.

Pros: Vegan menu, Can easily choose your spice level

Cons: Little difficult to find

Tried to give it a five star but Happy Cow wouldn’t let me.

We have been twice. Once in 2019 and once in 2022. The best vegan Indian food we have ever tasted. The staff are lovely and they have a full vegan menu. The food is amazing! Try the peppered soya starter! We ate there twice and massively over ordered and ate it the next day from the hotel. Seriously thinking of coming back to Tenerife just for this place. Can’t recommend it highly enough! Five Stars!

Pros: Best Indian we have ever eaten in any country, Full vegan menu. No other Indian on Tenerife , Most of the staff are vegetarian and vegan.

Cons: None!

many vegan options!

The food at Torviscas was really good. The waiter and the owner (who is vegetarian and wants to expand the vegan menu) very friendly helped us with choosing the best options for us since nearly every dish also exists on the vegan menu (see last page full menu) and even surprised us with vegan ice cream for dessert. ☀️

Pros: many vegan options, friendly staff

Best Indian Food of my life

I am a vegan for more than 20 years and this is the best Indian vegan food I ever had! We went there 3 times during our stay in Tenerife. It was spectacular every time. The owner is a very nice guy and they have an extensive vegan menu - you can try out many combinations. It’s so great to have choice! You should definitely try the Karahi.

Incredible

Best meal of the holiday. Curry here was amazing and it has an entire vegan menu which the owner (vegetarian) is looking to expand. You can choose your curry filling (fake meat, veg etc) and heat. All curries are fresh and have so much flavour. The owner is really knowledgeable and I would recommend to everyone.

Better than the other Indian restaurants

I have tried a lot of different Indian restaurants on this island and this is by far the best. A bit more pricy than places like Bombay Baboo, but definitely worth it.

Recommended Indian with the cleanest & prettiest bathrooms

We found ourselves in Costa Adeje, later in the evening and hungry. Luckily Spanish eat late, and we assumed an Indian would be a safe bet for vegan friendly food.
Short walk, and difficult to find (we did not come from the beach boulevard, but from 'behind' so we had to go down to a parking lot and there it was).
Very very spacious and clean. Friendly waiters, fast serving of the food.
A whole page of vegan options, and the waiter, who was a vegetarian, knew all about the (best) options. Lots can be customized to vegan, but many vegan dishes ready to be ordered as well.
Vegan curries, naan, rice, samosas, etc. Also listened good to our spicyness wishes.
Big recommendation, for a great and tasty dinner. Would have awarded 5 stars if HappyCow allowed it! Super cheap as well (compared to the NLs at least).
The bathrooms are also worth mentioning, super pretty and clean, like a hotel.

Best Vegan Options in an Indian Restaurant in Tenerife

If Happy Cow allowed me I would have given it 5*’s! The choice is really great and the food itself is even better. It was all very flavoursome and distinctive with great quality meat alternatives. The service was superb and they really know their stuff when it comes to Vegan food. Well worth searching it out, we will definitely be back!

Pros: The sheer choice, The amazing flavours, The great service

Perfekte Alternative für Vegetarier*innen und vor allem auch Veganer*innen!

Echt super Essen und das Personal ist sehr sympathisch und hilfsbereit bei der Auswahl der Gerichte. Leider nicht das schönste Restaurant aber ich würde jedes Mal wieder hingehen.
Bisher das beste Lokal auf Teneriffa.
Wenn man auf der Insel ist sollte man es auf jeden Fall besuchen!
Wer auf viel Geschmack und Knoblauch steht kommt auf seine/ihre Kosten.

Pros: Tasty Vegan-Food , Staff , Price

Best Indian food of my life

The title says it all. Went with my omni friends and when we took the first bites of our food we all were in disbelief at how delicious it was. We saw a group at another table have the same reaction later on as well.
There is a whole page of vegan options in the menu, the staff are very helpful and friendly, the food was to die for and also a really good price. Would go here every day if I could, no lie.

Pros: Extensive list of vegan options, Clearly marked vegan options, Super helpful and friendly staff

Cons: Long waiting time

Fantastic Indian restaurant

Hidden in a small shopping centre, you can find this little gem. Probably one of the best Indian restaurant in the Adeje region with plenty of vegan/vegetarian options. The owner is a vegetarian himself and specialises in vegetarian/vegan dishes. Highly recommend trying their vegan king prawns and vegan curries! Don’t let the location of this restaurant fool you!

Pros: Plenty of vegan/vegetarian dishes , Reasonably priced, Quick and friendly service

Cons: Location (it’s a bit hidden away)

amazing hidden gem !

would rate 5 stars if i could - lovely indian restaurant with attentive staff, one told me he is vegetarian and hoping to become vegan and so they were very conscious to let us know what was and wasn’t suitable for me to eat. there’s a full vegan menu at the back, the soya chaat was fantastic! i only wish i’d discovered this place sooner so i could try the rest of the menu (lots of vg meats including lamb and fish)

Best Indian food ever!

My partner booked this restaurant for my birthday and what an amazing choice! Hands down the best Indian vegan food I’ve tasted. We had the black pepper soy pieces for starters to share, then I had the vegan lamb rogan Josh, served with pilau rice and chips. The taste was delicious and service wad excellent! They also served premium spirits. Just sorry I can’t rate this 5 star! Highly recommended!

Pros: Separate vegan menu , Amazing selection , Well priced

Went with my omni friends who also loved this place. Owner gave me recommendations. I had the vegan Lamb Karahi style with a madras spice. Was absolutely beautiful and the vegan lamb was really nice with a great texture.

Easy and tasty

Pleasant and helpful staff, great food and clarity around what was vegan. Their soy-protein was really good and not common to have in Indian restaurant

Pros: +++ Good vegan protein for Indian food, Nice Staff, Easy to know what was vegan

Cons: Not so fancy just outside the restaurant
