Value for money - Edit
We went for menu of the day which was good value, tasted ok, especially apple cake was nice. I would go back if I could to try some of the things from regular menu. I like the fresh airy decor. Menu felt very dairy heavy for my liking, most things had cheese in them.

Fantástico!! - Edit
Muchas opciones vegetarianas y veganas. La comida es deliciosa! Muy buena relación calidad precio. Lo que más me impactó fué el buen ambiente entre los trabajadores y la excelente coordinación de todos cuando el restaurante se llenó de un momento a otro! Impresionante!! Volveré ya que me ha quedado mucho que probar!💚🌱

A must go - Edit
While in Puerto Cruz my boyfriend and I went four times to El Limón! Two for a drink and cake, the other two for dinner. In one of our dinners it happened they still had a Menú del Día left so we went for it and some snacks not included in the menu. It was perfect!
Read moreThe menu is unexpensive and includs a soup, a main dish, a dessert and the juice of the day. Main dish in our case was a delicious quinoa with salad (see pic).
Smoothies are wow. And cakes (almost all of them) vegan. They also have yummy crème caramel (vegan and veggie). And mousse au chocolat.
Stuff is very nice.

Große Auswahl - Edit
El Límon bietet eine große Auswahl an vegetarischen und veganen Speisen. Die Karte gibt’s neben spanisch auch auf englisch und deutsch. Außerdem sind hier alle Allergene ausgewiesen, sodass trotz der fehlenden Vegan-Kennzeichnung schnell ersichtlich ist, welches Gericht vegan ist. Hier hilft jedoch auch die freundliche Bedienung gern weiter. Die traditionellen papas con mojo sind hier genauso lecker wie die Kombi-Gerichte mit Tofu, Seitan und Tempeh. Die frischen Smoothies sind eine gute Ergänzung.
Read morePros: gutes Preis-Leistung-Verhältnis, offene Küche, viele vegane Optionen

Tasty enough - Edit
Nice little spot in central Puerto for a spot of lunch in the sun. Friendly staff and a big menu, which they'll happily adapt for your preferences. (Made my quesadilla vegan)
Read moreOur food was OK but a little odd/mismatched. Hard to explain... Just the strangest quesadilla I've had, more of a folded flatbread sandwich.
We enjoyed everything we had - especially their mojo sauce - but probably wouldn't rush back.
Pros: Big menu, Helpful staff
Cons: A but expensive for what it is

Really good - Edit
Having been there a few days before, we knew what we wanted to order. The warm salad was really tasty - light, yet filling and proteinatious with the tofu. Earthy, red wine to accompany. Reasonably priced. Staff very friendly and accommodating.

Nice and popular restaurant hidden away from the main tourist streets. We had lovely dishes. There could be a bit more variety on the menu but definitely worth checking out.

Clearly marked allergens and loads of vegan options. Had the nachos with avo and hummus, spring roll & tofu burger. With starters, mains and drinks was only about £20 for 2 of us!

Nice place - Edit
I tried the tofu burger in the vegan option (without cheese) nachos con humus and avocado. A little bit heavy for me and not enough healthy (too much creamy). Not every day ! Anyway there is many other choice. Végétarian dishes can be veganized.

Delicioso vegetariano!!! - Edit
Acogedor local en el centro del Puerto de la Cruz. Menú amplio en el que se indican los alérgenos de cada producto, por lo cual diferenciar lo vegano es muy fácil. Personal muy amable y comida deliciosa, siempre voy acompañada de amigos y familiares no veganos ni vegetarianos y salen encantados, repitiendo incluso. Me encanta!!!

Appalling and disappointing - Edit
Stingy, rude, ridiculous wait times (for a simple sandwich). We wanted to make a vegetarian sandwich vegan, but upon asking to swap the cheese and eggs for mushrooms (I.e. Veganise) we were told by a rude and aloof waiter that it would incur a charge of 3 euros (almost double the price of the sandwich!). This place is very unaccommodating to vegans. Don’t waste your time coming here!

low prices but bad meals - Edit
We had been searching for open veg restaurant in the centre of Puerto, so we visited El Limón . We offered nachos with hummus and guacamole, hamburger with "everythind" and spring rolls.
Read moreNachos: good crips, hummus was also good but nothing special and I hope that guacamole was vegan because it tasted like avocado with white yogurt :( ..
Hamburger: It had my boyfriend vegetarian... not good... basic bun with weird mayonaisse, ananas, vegetarian meet and egg ... he had a heavy stomach after...
Spring roolls... it was just one piece and it was full of oil (it was fried) and there was a strange cabbage inside... I could not eat it :(
Pros: stylish interior, prices
Cons: hamburger, spring rolls, nachos

Muy bueno - Edit
Tienen bastantes opciones veganas. Me gustó mucho que en la carta especificasen los componentes de alérgenos en cada producto. Me encantaron los bocadillos, que en Tenerife es muy habitual comer bocadillos, y es difícil encontrar un sitio donde hagan un bocadillo vegano. El personal muy amable.

Cons: Que no sea 100% vegana, ., .

Vegetarian - Edit
A good vegetarian restaurant in Puerto de la Cruz, convenient location in one the pedestrian streets. Pleasant "Old Cafe" style decoration which blends perfectly in the city. Reading the other reviews I do not have any complaints with the staff which was friendly and overall the food good. What I personally find could improve a lot are the availability of vegan options, for being a vegetarian restaurant the vegan options are limited and the menu relies heavily on dairy. Compared to other vegetarian places which usually offer dairy more to fulfill the demand for this products from their clients, here I see it promoted even with objects and signs in the decoration as if milk derivates are something positive. I hope the owners are genuinely not aware of how harmful the dairy industry is and will take time to look into it, hopefully reducing it in the future.

3 visits 2 good 1 bad! - Edit
Went here 3 times. 2 times we were really happy with the service, the food and drinks. The food is fast food style but really tasty. The location is nice and central. BUT! The 3rd time was probably our last. The menu depicts all allergens and we picked a tofu burger. To our surprise we received a burger with goat cheese. We wanted something vegan... We did not so much ask for a vegan burger but there was no cheese in the description and no symbol for lactose/milk. The worst part is when we told the waitress this was not what we ordered (patty did not look like tofu) she tried to convince us it was depicted as the soy symbol... Trying to tell me I can't read a menu is really insulting and at that point we should have left. Because of our good experiences before we waited for our burger without cheese. I know mistakes happen... but if I would have served a burger with cheese to a vegan I would have apologized a 100 times since this is the equivalent of serving meat to a vegetarian.
Read morePros: Location, Atmosphere , Staff is fast
Cons: Not clear what is vegan, Only go here if you eat vegetarian. , Staff not able to handle complaints
