Excellent from drinks to dessert - Edit
If you’re looking for a vegan take on traditional Portuguese offerings, this is a great location. Tucked away in the Chiado district, the atmosphere was welcoming and the food was delicious! Plenty of options to choose from but I must say the cheese board and Hazelnut-Chocolate mousse stole the show. This is not a restaurant you go to if you’re in a hurry - it’s an experience to savor.

Best vegan food we’ve ever had - Edit
Hands down the best vegan food we’ve ever had! We loved it so much we came back multiple times during our stay. The Francesinha is a must-try—a true taste of Portuguese home cooking, beautifully adapted. Every dish was clearly prepared with care, and even the salads were presented with such attention to detail. A perfect blend of flavour, authenticity, and creativity.

Good 😋 - Edit
I loved the starters, the main course and the desert.
Read moreI had tofu à lagareiro (vegan version of polvo (octopus) à lagareiro) as main and I didn't rate this experience 5 stars only because it had way more cabbage than tofu (only 2 pieces). It was very delicious, though.
The chocolate and peanut cake was incredibly good 😋
I'll be back someday to taste the other dishes ☺

Fully booked on a Wednesday night👍🏻 - Edit
I think I saw somewhere that it was recommended to book in advance, but figured as I was just going alone that it should be fine. And it was in this instance, I went as a walk in and had a lovely meal at the bar. I also watched their bartender make some incredible drinks with real care. But defo BOOK IN ADVANCE!

Hi Tom :)
Read moreThanks for the great feedback and for proving that sometimes taking the walk-in gamble can pay off! 😊
We're very happy you enjoyed your solo dinner at the bar along with cocktails lovingly crafted by our bartender.
We were thrilled to have you!
With that being said booking ahead definitely saves the suspense.
We’ll be sure to highlight that recommendation more prominently and we hope to welcome you back soon (booked or not 😉)!

Puede mejorar. - Edit
Pedimos los entrantes típicos portugueses, eran cinco cazuelitas y unas croquetas, cada una de ellas imitando un plato típico portugués. El plato de las croquetas/mermelada/chorizo riquísimo pero el plato con el pato/pulpo/¿rabas? (o algo parecido) francamente un desastre. Los platos que imitaban al pato y al pulpo estaban incomibles, según los masticabas de repente te daba un golpe de sabor fortísimo que lo arruinaba todo. Viendo las otras reseñas seguramente fuera un problema de cocción o de las salsas, o si simpleme es así (que no lo vre porque todo el mundo habla maravillas, pero nosotros no pudimos darle más de dos bocados. De segundo plato pedimos la ensalada de setas ostra y las bifanas y, si bien la bifana estaba muy, muy buena, la ensalada no era nada del otro mundo.
Read moreQuizá nuestra elección de platos haya sido desafortunada, pero con las reseñas que habíamos visto las expectativas eran mucho más altas y no las ha cumplido.
Para añadir, aún con la barrera del idioma, el servicio fue poco amable y lento para las pocas mesas que había en ese momento. Sinceramente, creo que en la ciudad hay otras opciones mucho más asequibles económicamente y que van a dejar (y nunca mejor dicho) mejor sabor de boca.
Pros: Bifana, Tarta de chocolate y cacahuetes, Chorizo, croquetas y rabas.
Cons: Pato, Pulpo

Estimado cliente,
Read moreGracias por compartir su experiencia con nosotros.
Lamentamos sinceramente que algunos de nuestros platos no hayan cumplido con sus expectativas.
Nuestro objetivo es ofrecer reinterpretaciones veganas de platos tradicionales portugueses que satisfagan a todos nuestros comensales. Sentimos que el pulpo, setas al estilo bulhão pato y la sepia frita no hayan sido de su agrado. Tomaremos en cuenta sus comentarios para revisar y mejorar estas recetas.
Nos alegra saber que disfrutaron de las croquetas con mermelada y chorizo, así como de la bifana. Sin embargo, lamentamos que la ensalada de setas ostra no haya destacado.
Respecto al servicio, nos disculpamos si percibieron falta de amabilidad o lentitud. Valoramos mucho la atención al cliente y trabajaremos para mejorar en este aspecto.
Esperamos tener la oportunidad de recibirlos nuevamente y ofrecerles una experiencia que refleje la calidad y el servicio que nos esforzamos por brindar.
Atentamente,
El equipo de 26 Vegan Food Project

Excellent Food - Edit
2024: Wonderful menu focusing on traditional Portuguese foods. We had the sardine appetizer (nice hint of sea flavor and remarkable texture inside and out, nicely captures the sardine experience) followed by the francesinha with potato crisps and another dish with sausage, mashed potato, and gravy with rocket (both were incredibly flavorful and felt like comfort food). Our dessert was layers of coffee soaked cake and cream. Highly recommend this place, and be sure to make a reservation. Also, we had a hard time finding it. Look for their small sign high on the wall next to a flight of stairs going down.
Read more2025: We had another excellent meal here. Ravioli and a mushroom dish, finished with chocolate mousse. Everything was perfect. Reservations highly recommended.

Used to be good - Edit
I previously rated this 5 stars 3 years ago, it’s now massively gone down in quality. Don’t get me wrong, it’s not horrible food by any means, but it’s lacking in flavour where it previously wasn’t. The starters were great, but both the mains and desserts needed improvement. Out of the 3 desserts, only 1 was finished as the other 2 were so poor. The peanut chocolate pie is something you’d expect an amateur baker to make

Delicious Fishy Classics! - Edit
First of all, I am thankful to all the previous reviewers who recommended against ordering the francesina & getting the fish soup instead. It was one of the best things I have ever tried in my life! The flavors were very well developed, and it was well worth the price! The fish rice dish was also great, but if you had to go with just one dish, then do the soup!
Read moreTheir cheese board was also great (but a bit pricey) and they don't give you much bread. The sardines were also quite interesting and a creative reinterpretation of the dish. Service was great, and drinks were also quite creative! It was beautiful to see a vegan restaurant so packed with different people.
Absolutely fantastic food, and one of the highlights of my trip there!
Pros: fancy but comfortable, great creative dishes, varied menu
Cons: some things seem overpriced, you need a reservation for sure!

A must visit - Edit
Our tour guide took us here and wow the food was fantastic as was the atmosphere. Both our dishes were incredible. TOFU À LAGAREIRO had delicious greens and the wrapped tofu was so good with the sauce. FRANCESINHA is like a lasagna and delicious. Would have liked it with some more spice. PEANUT & CHOCOLATE PIE our final item was to die for, amazing peanut butter and chocolate.

Expected more - Edit
I wish I could give more than (2-)3/5, but I felt quite dissapointed. I had a dinner on a Friday evening, so the place was crowded and I had to wait for a table even though I had a reservation (which I can still understand). I ordered a portuguese starter mix (19 €), which was a collection of six small starters bread. Each dish was clearly ”mass produced” and just put in a small pot, without any decoration or plating (they also came a bit too quickly considering the number of guests at the time). The taste was okay, just a bit underwhelming for the most part. The bread was half-stale. Everything felt still okay until the dessert (creme brulee). I know it is supposed to be cold in the bottom, but this was half-frozen in the middle. I didn’t get a chance to point this out as the staff looked stressed and busy, so I just waited it to melt (it tasted still okay). Nobody asked if the food was good. By that point, I felt just ready to leave. The manager (?) looked just bothered/bored when I asked for the bill. I don’t feel like coming back, which is a pity as there were many interesting dishes on the menu.

Excellent, thoughtfully prepared food. - Edit
Loved our dining experience, and I highly recommend!
Read moreThe atmosphere was clean and modern, with a floor to ceiling wall of windows open to a serene but sparse view. Attentive (but not fussy) service, and we never felt rushed, even with a full dining room.
The food was prepared with care, and the presentation was simple yet elegant. We loved all the food we ordered, and the seitan steak was a standout!
Dessert is absolutely not to be missed (the orange and cardamom crème brûlée and the peanut and chocolate pie were pure heaven!).
Lovely wine and cocktail choices, and their natural sodas were the best I have ever tasted.
Prices are excellent for this quality! For roughy 96 Euros (before adding a tip), the 3 of us had appetizers, main courses, drinks, and desserts.
They close from 6-7pm, and we were the first to be seated for a 7pm reservation. Do make a reservation as this place was quickly packed!

Don’t miss this experience! - Edit
26 Vegan Food Project has been a highlight of our trip to Lisbon. Every part of the meal was thoughtfully crafted with great attention to detail. It was thrilling to try creative vegan versions of Portuguese fish dishes, including octopus, sardines, and cuttlefish. The staff was attentive and the vibes were right.

Nice dinner with attentive staff - Edit
We were accommodated without reservation knowing we had short time at table. Worked out great to grab dinner as staff was attentive. Restaurant design is interesting with stone walls, windows and mirrors. Interesting take on food. Nice to have selection of entrees. Decent flavors yet not off the charts that one might expect at this price. Would still return.

Mixed feelings - Edit
There are some things excellent and some things lacking, would love to see more consistency in creativity and quality. Maybe my expectations were set too high. The overall ambience and environment of the restaurant was very nice and enjoyable. Two main disappointments were we chose a Portuguese sharing starter that sounded great but was very simple, eg bowls of mushrooms and not so wow, one of our mains was the traditional Portuguese Francesinha and it wasn't hot enough so that layers of the sliced vegan cheese hadn't melted and ruined the overall texture of the food. Still some good parts were the "Choco" frito and Ilheu.

I wish I could go back to try more. I regretted that we accidentally ordered so many deep fried foods, I think that I would have enjoyed it more if we didn’t. But everything we had was really tasty, the restaurant was beautiful, and the service was excellent. The entire menu was vegan versions of Portuguese classics.

Not worth the hype - Edit
It was probably one of the restaurants I was the most excited to go to, because I heard so many great comments about it. But I have to admit I was a bit disappointed... So I can't give it 5 stars.
Read moreThe staff weren't very friendly, the restaurant quite empty and the service very fast, but only because dishes were pre-made. The kitchen is open so you can hear them putting meals together quickly. One of my ravioli was still cold. It felt more like a fancy canteen than a popular restaurant. Maybe we chose a bad day (Wednesday lunch time)? Anyway, I wouldn't go back, especially since there are so many amazing vegan restaurants in Lisbon. It's not exactly like we would run out of options.
On a positive note, the cheese platter was delicious, especially their blue cheese. It would have been great to have better bread on the side though.
