About La Garrina Natural Wine Restaurante - Solo el Amor Salvara el Mundo - Wine Shop
La Garrina is a natural wine bar and restaurant in Girona's old town where Argentine-inspired empanadas, globally inflected small plates, and carefully curated natural wines converge under one relaxed, music-filled roof. Run by owners who radiate genuine passion—staff like Pablo and Marylynn are known for unpacking each wine and dish with the kind of attentive storytelling that makes regulars return—the space has become a hub for solo diners, friends seeking authentic conversation, and anyone drawn to honest, unfussy wine and food. The kitchen commits seriously to vegan and vegetarian options (vegan cheese platters, dairy-free nachos, adaptable mains), organic and seasonal ingredients, and a menu that refuses to stay in one lane: you'll find pad thai alongside hummus, guacamole, and samosas, all executed with care. The atmosphere is informal and warm, dog-friendly, and wheelchair accessible. Reservations are recommended for dinner, especially weekends.
