Madre Tierra | Restaurante vegetariano - Vegano en Toledo

I had ordered only vegan dishes. The service was quite slow as it was very crowded, and there were only three staff members handling everything. We waited for many minutes for someone to take our order, and our food arrived after a long wait. When we asked for olive oil for the pizza, we had to wait again for a staff member to come by, since they were very busy. Overall nice ambience. The food tasted good but pizza could have been better. Tempuras and pumpkin soup were tasty.

I never thought some of my favorite vegetarian sushi would be in Toledo! There's more than sushi though with a diverse menu for a slightly upscale plant-based dining experience. I also love the sustainability partnerships with B Corp water organic wines. Lovely ambiance and staff. I had the Madre Tierra sushi and risotto- both fantastic

We really enjoy our meal here, the carcamusas (must try) and paella were really tasty. The bread could be improved and regarding the beverages, they have a great variety. The staff is friendly and the place is well located.

This was the most amazing restaurant!! We had such a wonderful time. We came mid-day for appetizers and came back again for dinner! It is so hard to find a restaurant that is all vegetarian. The atmosphere was so lovely and the service was even better! Everyone was so kind and helpful. Our favorite thing was the Ensalada Tiritaina de Queso with the goat cheese ice cream on top. We also got the Paradise de Chocolate and the Tarta de Manzana for dessert. Everything was incredible. We were so delighted.

The pizza tastes exactly like low-end frozen pizza or rather, has the same lack of taste. If that wasn’t intentional… that’s a spectacular failure.

Oh wow, what a nice surprise as we got here absolutely random. Good is incredibly tasty, cannot explain. A vegetarian restaurant that understands taste. Well done!

A true gem that you can’t go home without trying! After a weeek end in Toledo where we ate out every day, we really needed something a bit lighter. We obviously failed, but that’s entirely our own fault coz the food looked too delicious! The artichokes were my absolute favourite but the cannelloni also got the spot. Portions are large (keep that in mind if you are not sharing!), the place is pleasant and the staff marvellous. From what I could see the place is not wheelchair accessible as you have to walk down a few steps to get it, but they may have a ramp to accommodate wheelchairs (maybe ask beforehand!) What I REALLY liked is that this is vegetarian place that doesn’t try to mimic non vegetarian dishes (I hate all the “non chicken parm” and the “not your usual bolognaise”): it’s vegetarian in its own right and shines bright for it! Well done!

Fresh vegetarian food with plenty of vegan options, elegant atmosphere, decent prices, quick service. Glad I got to eat here during my short visit in Toledo.

Excellent place for vegetarian and vegan food. Service is good. Food is tasty and price is reasonable

Best meal of our trip and a crazy bargain. This is first class vegetarian food, focussed on the flavours and textures of vegetables and in some dishes eggs and cheese. It goes way beyond just cooking traditional dishes with fake meat. The menu has a surprisingly broad selection, the dishes are clever and the execution is technically very good. The next time we are passing through Madrid and have a free evening, we will take the train to Toledo for a meal at Madre Tierra then go back to Madrid. Highly recommended.

It's hard to find restaurants in Spain with a lot of vegetarian options let alone an entire restaurant of options. We really enjoyed the meal--the appetizers were particularly good! The house wine and beer were great. Ambiance was lovely. Service was attentive and hospitable. It gets busy; recommend making reservations.

Delicious food and great service. I had the courgettes with emmenthal and Gorgonzola sauce, and my husband had the mushroom lasagne. Both were very tasty! The seeded rolls were a nice change from the typical white bread we have served at most Spanish restaurants. Our waitress spoke English (she taught herself listening to music and watching shows), and engaged with us in conversation - initiated by my husband. :) The ambiance is a little upscale, but I felt comfortable just in my summer daytime wear. Highly recommend!

Of all the cities I visited in Spain, I did the least research on Toledo. (We were only there for an afternoon.) I had several places bookmarked, but didn't really make any notes on them. So when we approached Madre Tierra, I had no idea it was a vegetarian place. Back home, that would send me scurrying away, but my fiancee lamented how much she missed vegetables after so many nights of the holy tapas trilogy of meat and carbs and oil. I relented and we went inside. I was pleasantly surprised that Madre Tierra was the kind of vegetarian restaurant that actually offered some tasty flavors for people who like more than a bowl of twigs. I had the arribiata (spicy) pizza (10.40 €) and really liked it. We also started with some veggie dumplings (10.90 €) that blew me away with flavor. Because we were so stuffed from the day's meals, we ended up boxing up the pizza and taking it back to the hotel. It held up as cold breakfast the next morning. With wine and water our total tab for two was 42.20 €. Normally, I wouldn't be caught dead in a vegetarian restaurant, but Madre Tierra has an extensive menu with things even the most voracious carnivore could enjoy. One weird thing about Madre Tierra - the hand driers in the bathroom are not plugged in. There was some kind of air freshener thing in the only outlet. Am I supposed to unplug that, then stretch the hand drier cord over the sink with wet hands? Bizarre. Also, they have motion sensors in the bathroom, so if you're not moving, the lights go out. Dumb.

I guess the only vegetarian place in Toledo, and why it is rather pricey. We had the wok noodle and vegetables, don't expect the way how Asian cooks them. It is too oily and salty. We also had the spinach soup which is not too bad. Creamy and salty.

It was good to see a vegetarian place in Toledo. This place is close to cathedral and we came here just as they were opening for lunch. When we entered the restaurant there was a weird offensive smell which made me think not to eat here, but once we were seated, it seemed ok. We ordered vegetarian Croquettes and arrabbiata pizza. Everything is vegetarian and the 'meat' is made from soy. The croquettes were good but needed a little more seasoning and some dipping sauce. I liked the pizza. Crust was crispy and sauce tasted great. It was a bit oily but overall good flavor. They don't provide tap water here as the water is not clean. We ordered fruit tea instead. They have extensive list of teas and coffee. The server got us a couple of potatoes with pesto sauce and they were good. He then asked if we want bread. Please note that they charge ~1€ for this bread. They don't mention anything about charge and the bread doesn't come with any oil/butter. The restaurant is a little pricey but I guess Toledo is very touristy and this is expected.

Of all the places we ate, this was my favorite in Toledo. It is a beautiful, sophisticated, relaxing space. We'd had a long day without lunch and arrived a few minutes before the doors opened. They were kind enough to let us come in and sit at a table even though the kitchen wasn't technically open yet. I had the Cheese Tiritaina salad and a bowl of soup. Both were delicious. My husband had an avocado roll. Equally good. I love tapas but I'd had a two week diet of many fried tapas. I was so happy to have something that was so tasty and fresh.

Like all the reviews here below, we concur you will find this a welcome oasis of clean healthy eats in an otherwise tapa filled city. A beautiful warm atmosphere of bohemian chic welcomes you into a feast for your senses. Seven years of trajectory makes this a seamlessly run kitchen and dining area. We are on a clean diet of raw food and though they offer cheeses and dishes with dairy and eggs we stuck to the mostly raw unprocessed dishes, which were satisfying to the belly. Ample variety of choices and delicious desserts. So subtle and flavorful. Affordable and exquisite at the same time. You will be charmed.

We made the mistake of ordering 1 wok rice noodles and veggies - they were so oily and mostly small onions mushrooms and zucchini and 2. the spinach creme soup was tasty but too rich and salty Not the healthy vegetarian lunch I was hoping for...maybe just ordered the wrong stuff why don't vegetarian restaurants serve lots of fresh green vegetables? I just don't understand it.

As one of the only vegetarian places in a town, or the only vegetarian place in a town, which seems to be the case with Toledo, you have the opportunity to be truly unique and fantastic. This is not the case with Madre Tierra, unless you enjoy paying a premium for Sangria that comes from a bottle, and vegetable risotto that has less flavor than a touristy vegetable paella. The waiter is also pretty bad, unable to answer even the most basic questions about the food. When we asked him for olive oil (twice) we waited forever for him to bring it, only for him to pull it from a shelf that was right behind us. The only redeeming factor was the ariabatta pizza, which was tasty.

Western Europe is often the toughest place to find food while traveling, and Spain -- especially with its emphasis on jamon! -- is no exception. As a result, we were thrilled to find this all-veg restaurant in the small city of Toledo. The seitan cordon bleu was my highlight, but even the relatively simple Madre Tierra salad was delightful. Service was friendly and attentive, and the ambience is elegant. Highly recommended!

Terrible food and service. On May 29,2019 we ordered a salad and vegan hamburger. We did complació that the hamburger was burned. and 15 minutes instead of burned hamburger we got not cooked mash. We complained to waiter but got a smile instead of the apology. This terrible restaurant and do not recommend it to anyone.

The only vegetarian restaurant I could find in the whole of Toledo - the alternative would have been a vegetable paella in one of these ultra-touristy cafés. This place is huge! I went late in the afternoon so it wasn't very busy. Service was excellent and so was my Mousaka with Seitan (though, come to think of it, seitan cubes wouldn't be my first choice in this recipe - soya chunks, maybe...). It was a main dish and I expected a salad or accompaniment of some sort but there was none, so I'd probably have a starter next time. Desert was very good if fairly standard (brownie with ice cream) and coffee (americano) was ok (from a Nespresso machine rather than a real espresso machine). A lovely place away from the tourist trail yet very close to the Cathedral. Don't miss it.

This was a wonderful surprise to find, and a welcome break from the seemingly unending parade of tapas restaurants that all serve pretty much the same items. It is recommended in the Rick Steves guidebook, so we gave it a try for lunch. We were welcomed by a very friendly hostess/server who spoke very little English (and we speak very little Spanish), so she gave us the Spanish menu and the English menu, plus a little pocket translation dictionary. We did our best to order in Spanish and she was patient with us. Our meals were absolutely incredible. I ordered the tofu and mushroom croquettes which were served with a light basil pesto. Mouth-watering! The bread was "gratis" and served with fragrant Spanish olive oil. I enjoyed this restaurant and wish we encountered more like it during our trip to Spain!

I wish it were better. We were the first guest of the day. I longed for a vegetarian meal. It was't great. It may have been from yesterday. At the same time my wife had an excellent tomato soup with eggplant & eggs, as well as a wonderful pasta dish. Two stars from me, 3 stars from her.

I was here in 2011 and had a wonderful meal. The menu was fabulous. My rather carnivorous mother found nothing lacking. In fact, she still talks about it as a highlight of our trip. We ordered a few dishes to share. Everything we got was great. The cheeses and produce was fresh and it was all prepared perfectly. I've traveled a lot and make a note to keep track of restaurants that stand out. This place is one of them. It's refreshing, delicious, and different from other local fare.

So who knew, and excellent vegetarian place in the land of ham and crusty bread. It was a recommendation from the Rick Steve's book, as we were staying at one of his recommend hostal, right around the corner, so the location was convenient. We were looking for change from the tapas bars and ham/bacon. Excellent pizza - the mushroom + caprese was really good - flavorful with a enough spice to keep you interest. The wife had a wonderful salad full of fresh ingredients and a sweet goat cheese. Honestly, it was so good, it was tough to even think of this restaurant as only a vegetarian place.

Fresh, fresh, fresh ingredients. We had the country pizza, scallop with tufu and the second salad on the menu with goat cheese and they were all delicious.

It was so nice to find a vegetarian restaurant in Toledo. We had the veggie burger and sriram cutlets. Excellent food, relaxing atmosphere, great decor and friendly service. Highly recommended!

Great pizza. But don't go if you are in a hurry. Then it's better to go to the bar next door (and get meat). The vegetarian, dairy free, and gluten free options were refreshing and the tea is marvelous. Pizza arabiata and Luz de Mediterranean tea!

We were a group of 5 hungry people and followed Yelp rating to this place. However it was not as per our expectations (especially after 4 days of amazing food in Barcelona!) - the breaded cheese & spring rolls were great but the rest of the food - musaka, wok rice noodles and even the salad was too oily..however the ambience was really good and this may be the only option here in Toledo for vegetarians..

One of the best vegetarian restaurants, maybe I shall skip the word "vegetarian", I've ever had! Thank Yelp for all the previous visitors' recommendations, my wife and I decided to give a trial to M.T. though we are not vegetarian, it turns out so delicious to both of us. We ordered three dishes, except onion soup was a bit salty, the salad ( second on menu) was just perfect and the country pizza was great! The Chef really knows how to make diners feel satisfactory and grateful! The first glimpse on prices might let you think they are expensive, but good materials and superb cooking surely deserve higher value. Strongly recommend!!!

Attempts to be fine dining vegeterian. Very nice decor. Quiet background music from an Irish female la la la vocalist. On our visit there were only a few tables occupied, but also only one server. Service was very slow. The onion soup with cheese was excellent except too salty. The signature salad excellent. Rather expensive even for a toursist town: soup and salad for two, one beer, one bottle of water, one dessert, 1 coffee, one tea, 54 euros (approx $76) before tip.

We liked everything we order! - rollitos de verduras - delicious! - crema de verduras - love it! - crema de espinaca was just ok.. - salads - canelones de espinacas Fue el unico lugar vegetariano q pudimos encontrar en Toledo y fue genial :)

Food was delicious, so many things on the menu I would have liked to have eaten. The risotto I did choose was a little lacklustre hence only 4 stars. The rest was amazing. Strongly recommended

As a vegetarian traveling through Spain, it was wonderful to find a restaurant where I could eat more than just a salad, bread and cheese without a confused look of 'why don't you want ham with this'. And to make it even better, it was really yummy. I had the blue cheese and walnut croquettes to start, the mushroom risotto for main and ended with the chocolate cake with ice cream. I loved it all so much I considered ordering more for take away just to have breakfast the next day. If you get tired of ham, bacon and bread - then give this place a try.

Off the beaten path a little, but worth the searching. Very good food and a nice/quiet atmosphere. You won't be disappointed.

After the endless eating places featuring hanging hams, boring salads, and potato chips for an appetizer, this restaurant listed by Rick Steves was wonderful. It wasn't that easy to find, but was so beautiful and welcoming when we walked in. Although spacious, we were the only people there for lunch for nearly an hour. The decoration, the music, and the relaxed pace of our excellent meal were a real treat from the busy streets around Plaza Zocodover . Everything we had was excellent and although it wasn't inexpensive, it also didn't cost that much more than some truly disappointing meals we have had in our 2 weeks in Spain.

Wonderful surprise for vegetarians and vegans in Toledo. Excellent healthy, tasty food and service. They even invited us to look into the kitchen when we showed interest in how the food was individually prepared to order.
