Delicious vegan date night

Lovely for a date night or a special meal in Porto. Varied menu with both local and international dishes - lovely to have a vegan version of ‘cod’ which is on many menus in the region. Incredible flavours - can highly recommend the tortilla wrap starter and the baked fish. Super tasty! The ‘chocolate garden’ dessert wasn’t as special as expected - just a brownie with some chocolate mousse, but still a nice way to end the meal. Nice ambiance and friendly staff. Good value for money too!

Pros: Very flavourful , Nice ambiance, Wide range of dishes

Great food

When you enter the restaurant at the Bar you don't expect what you get in the restaurant. It is just amazing. The dinner was excellent and so tasty. Our waitress Isabel was such lovely young lady. We really enjoyed our stay

Fancy vegan food!

A very fancy experience and great to have all vegan options! I went with people who weren't vegan, and they loved it as well. All food was delicious and fresh.

I hate giving vegan restaurants, bad reviews

Where to start with this one. We walked in and the restaurant was very musty and damp smelling, and it went downhill from there. They handed us a cocktail menu, but wasn’t able to make any cocktails. The food was at best bland and at worst inedible. We ordered 4 dishes, none of which were accurately described in the menu. I got the tortilla which was stuffed with seitan despite that not being mentioned in the description. I personally don’t like seitan and wouldn’t have ordered it. it had very little flavor. My husband ordered the carrot tartare, which was terrible and tasted strongly of wasabi despite that also not being mentioned on the menu. For mains, he got the wellington which was ok, and I got the stew, which was bland and clearly made with sad canned beans and tomato paste. I hate giving bad reviews, but I have to be honest here. Vegan food can be amazing but places like this bring the reputation down.

Pros: Nothing

Cons: Food not as described on the menu, Bland food , Bad food

Great bargain lunch

I went for the lunch option of 3 courses for 19 Euro. This is only available on certain days so check first.
I was on my own and didn't have a booking but that was fine.
The food was pretty good, amazing soup and rice, but I was expecting more from the Chocolate Garden dessert.
Great service.

Pros: Lovely setting, Good choices, a bit different to other places, Tasty food

Cons: Not that easy to find, Dessert was underwhelming

Fantastic vegan restaurant providing excellent quality food... which just happens to be vegan

My family and I really enjoyed eating here; we had three different main courses -- a seitan escalope, "toffish" and a vegan feijoada. All of which were objectively excellent, beautifully presented and really tasty. There is a clear focus on providing a high quality restaurant experience at very reasonable prices in a venue in which it just so happens that all of the food is vegan. Why aren't there more places like this?

Pros: Nice ambience in a lovely settings., Brilliant with children., Delicious food.

Simply amazing

One of the best vegan places I have eaten in. Extremely tasty tagliatelle alla puttanesca. Excellent mushrooms risotto. Kindest staff, and open kitchen which I love. Food is delicious and the restaurant itself is beautifully decorated. A must if in Porto!

Michelin get yourself down here

Magnificent restaurant! Super staff, delicious food. Michelin get down here toute suite!

Beautiful decor, staff were complete poppits and the food was presented thoughtfully, but in filling portion sizes. I would come back to Porto just to eat here. Go, go now before this place becomes Porto’s worst case secret and has a 12 months waiting list. 10 stars all round.

I checked with the staff and all wine is vegan.

Pros: Chocolate garden, Beautiful decor, Supremely helpful staff

Tasty vegan food

We were really impressed with the food here.
We had the spicy “meat” tortilla to share which was very flavourful and not too spicy (the way we like it!)
Then we ordered the tofu wellington and the traditional tripe’s bean stew- both delicious but we agreed the wellington stole the show!
The staff were so friendly and attentive and we sat in the garden which was beautiful, peaceful and scenic. Great place!

Great food

Very creative and tasty food ! The vibes were cool and nice music! Pleasantly suprised to see so many tasty vegan options in this place as Porto needs more vegan spots ! One lady was serving everyone and she should have an award for being so calm and professional under the pressure of looking after all of us ! She was kind, upbeat and managing the whole floor on her own! Give that lady a raise ! Would have given 5 stars if she had a team with her - not fair she was having to serve on her own! But she did a great job! Food was great

Pros: Amazing tasty food , Lovely friendly server - she was an icon , Cool vibes

Cons: More staff needed to help manage flow , No cocktails because not enough staff , Till issue at the end- system shared with hotel

Feeling Mislead

Beware: This restaurant serves vegan meals for lunch and dinner, but breakfasts (which are offered to Jardins Do Porto hotel guests) are vegetarian. Unfortunately I learned this by watching the chef crack open eggs. Very frustrating. The hotel needs to make it clear that breakfasts are not vegan. This could also impact diners who may be concerned about cross contamination.

Amazing

This place is rainy one of the best in Porto when it comes to having a little more of an upscale experience while other places are really good at making delicious fast food, at Jardineiro you will find more of a fine dining experience that is not lacking in anything.

The place is really pretty, staff incredibly kind, and the food is next level .

While prices are a little higher than in other places, they still are very fair for what you get.

mixed feelings

So, some of the things were great. Eg. tofu wellington, the seitan steak and the tofish were AMAZING. also, the apple crumble dessert with ice cream is great, i came back twice for that. soup was good.

the service is not the best, they were very slow and confused which left me very irritated. our lunch took hours, dinner was a bit better, but still.

the mango appetizer was overpriced for what it was and very raw/dry/not tasty. the beans/tripe dish had way too little sausage/protein inside.

pistachio tiramisu was not bad. the cheesecake was ok. couvert is ok, although too much bread and too little spreads.

Vegan food but be careful with drinks

Really good vegan food, but drinks menu is not 100% Vegan. Wine is clearly marked, but they have cocktails and spirits that are not Vegan. For example: had 4 or 5 choices of port, disappointingly none of them were Vegan. Food was very good, menu had plenty of choice, drinks menu was a let down.

So tasty

Solid offer here. The food really is on another level. There's a decent, but not overwhelming, range of dishes being offered. Everything I had was good and I would certainly return.

Pros: Taste, Variety

Cons: Portion sizes
