Amazing and cost so little

I was surprised by the generosity of the self-service compared to the price. I got a small take-out box for 7€ plus a Kombucha. Very filling and tasty.

Smaller than in Matosinhos, but still amazing

As the title says, it's a bit smaller, but you still have a lot of dishes to choose from. There were some different dishes, like a quiche or a salad with pineapple.
The staff was again very friendly, we were even shown that there is a deal and saved some money because of that.
The dishes were refilled quickly, tasted absolutely amazing and for that price it's hard to beat.

Eating at DaTerra was a joyous and satisfying experience. Their buffet included different tasty options and the waitress was likeable and very accommodating.

Crazy gutes Preisleistungsverhältnis

Es war so mies lecker!! All you can eat (also mit Nachschlägen) gibt es für 12€ und ich hatte ne Medium take away Box für 9€, die ich nicht mal geschafft habe! Alle Gerichte, die ich mir reingepackt haben waren frisch, lecker und auch relativ gesund & nährstoffreich. So eine gute Entdeckung!!

Pros: Geschmack , Preis, Portionsgrösse

Bad stomach...

My husband and I ate here and both had stomach problems afterwards. Our kids had food from a different shop and had no problem. The food was cold and also dry from standing too long. Also, the taste was quite indifferent.

All-you-can-eat buffet

I really like this format of all-you-can-eat. It allows you to taste many different foods in small portions.

Be aware that it's one kiosk in a huge food market. Not everything on that market is vegan, only this specific place. Which makes them more special :)

Excellent economic option

Super friendly staff, the girl who helped us was vegan and everything was suitable for vegans. They had a set menu of 15 euros for all you could eat buffet plus soup and a drink (which included wine if you wanted). Fresh tasty salads with some warm dishes too. There was a cabinet of vegan desserts which all looked yummy abut we didn’t have space. The restaurant is in a covered market with lots of other stalls and then seating inside and out to suit you and the weather. Super recommend.

Pros: Excellent value for money, Amazing choice, Friendly staff

Eat Here!

This was such amazing value and food! Everything we had was great- 15€ for soup/buffet/drink! Inside a food-hall so lots of other places for non-veg if you are with a group. We had accidentally eaten in some tourist traps that are listed here on happy cow and were pretty disappointed - this spot totally turned it around! Eat here! So good!

Pros: Tasty food, Great value, Friendly service

Cons: No cons

Amazing buffet!!

Worth a visit when in Porto, highly recommend! The buffet offers many different dishes, all vegan, all very tasty and special. From warm, cold to salads and free refill on your lemonades. All you can eat & drink for 15€ with a soup - very fair price!

Pros: Variety, Taste!, Very friendly and warm-heartef staff

Overpriced

I was there on Sunday so the lunch set (lemonade, soup and buffet) cost 15€ - overpriced definitely. In other places in the market I could see vegan burgers for 9€ and probably it would be a better cost for value. Also the whole food court is rather noisy and hot, not a place to chill.

Pop-up DaTerra

Was a bit disappointed that this DaTerra is just a small popup in a food market, with not that many options available, but the food was good and the guy behind the counter was nice.

Pros: Nice, friendly staff, Tasty, wholesome food

Cons: Small pop-up stand in a market, Not that many options

Great choice, great value if you are hungry!

Between us we tried everything on the buffet and there was only one thing we weren't keen on. Then went back for seconds for our favourites, all included in the charge. 👍
Desserts looked great but we had already stuffed ourselves so maybe next time we are in Porto. Serving person was so helpful because it was our first time and we didn't know exactly what we were doing. We would definitely go back.

Pros: All you can eat and very tasty!!, Really nice staff person, The only place on the south side of the river

Not worth the price infortunately

The all you can eat brunch seems attractive, the food is unfortunately not tasty and left for hour on the serving table so that the taste develops strangely. For the first time I did not have even 1 single item on the menu that tasted interrsting. For the prince I would definetely suggest one of the many full vegan restaurants in Porto

Cons: Food not so tasty, Food left expose on the table, not super nice, Price / Quality definetely unbalanced

Buena opción en Oporto

Mercado de restaurantes agradable,
Comida buena, quizá no muy variado porque casi todo era ensaladas, pero muy bueno con legumbres, lasañas con soja texturizada por lo que la proteína(q suele fallar) y una dieta variada no falta

Pros: Variedad de alimentos , Precio económico , Sabor y sensación

Cons: Poca variedad de ensaladas , Sin postre en el menú , Bebidas aparte

Vegan hideaway

Situated inside the Mercado, good choice of vegan food. Eat all you want for 10.50€ for lunch or 12.50€ for dinner includes soup.

Pros: Choice of food, Friendly staff

Cons: Needs to be hotter, Would be nice to have labels to say what it is., Soup was bland and tasteless.

My first experience at a vegan buffet

Buffet lunch for 12,50 euros. Fresh products and friendly service.
But I didn’t find the food tasty.
They have also nice looking cheesecakes, but I didn’t try.
