Top notch

The welcome, choice of dishes, time for food to arrive, service and value for money was very good. Eat in, outside or take away.
Friendly and attentive staff.

Great and near to the Gulbenkian

Came here for lunch twice after visiting the Gulbenkian and really liked the food and atmosphere! Good range of options and the waitstaff are lovely. We sat inside both times but there are tables outside too.

Pros: Quality of food, Range of food, Staff and atmosphere

Well… i have mixed feelings about this place.

It was the first time I'd visited the place and I'd been wanting to come here for a long time. The food is good. The desserts are wonderful. The place is cozy and cute But the service isn't very friendly and the cutlery is an unnecessary challenge. So uncomfortable that I couldn't enjoy the food as much as I would have liked.

Pros: The cheescake, Decoration, The toilet

Cons: The cutlery, The service, They don't have decaf

My sisters

A nice spot in a quieter part of Lisbon. I liked that they used mushrooms in the omelette, but it was a bit bland to be honest. The juice was good enough and service was quick when I visited.

Amazing find

Came here for a lunch after some museum touring. Based on the other reviews, I kind of had the impression that since the place was very health-oriented, the flavours would be somehow lacking. This was NOT the case!! Everything we had were truly delicious. We ordered two different smoothies, the ”omelette”, and earth bowl. All were really tasty, 100% recommended.

Pros: Cute and cozy, All vegan, Great flavours

Mom’s Daughters Are Doing A-OK!

En route to experiencing some culture at the Gulbenkian, we popped into My Mother's Daughters for some much-needed grub. A couple of blocks from the museum, MMD has a very charming -- I use that word a lot in Lisbon! -- street front; fine curb-appeal. It was a beautiful day, so we decided to do it alfresco. Naturally, we chose the table that simply didn't sit well on the cobbled sidewalk; everything felt lopsided. Nevertheless, we made do with what was there. Jay went with the farinata (a chickpea crusted "pizza"; 2 small slices); I ordered the mung bean wrap. We also ordered a couple of glasses of red wine. The wine came out first, with the waitperson presenting a two-third's empty bottle; he gave us an opportunity to taste it first (which we nixed). As it turned out, we should have since the wine was particularly acidic, as if having sat in the uncorked bottle for a few days. My mung bean wrap (filled with fine-shredded carrots and beetroot) was "healthy" tasting; the accompanying side salad was fresh and sparingly dressed. The staff that waited on us were very friendly. Compared to in-town, these streets in the "modern" section of Lisboa are very clean and nowhere-near as bustling (at least when we were there in the early afternoon). Overall, My Mother's Daughters gets a thumb's-up from me. :)

Vegan’s paradise

A cozy café of the more traditional type with incredibly tasty, healthy seasonal food. Also includes diverse sweet meals. Before coming to Lisbon, I’ve heard its a vegan’s paradise and it was certainly so in this place 🍀

Pros: Purely vegan , Friendly service, Both indoors & outdoors sitting

Healthy All the Way

My Mother's Daughter is a 100% plant-based restaurant near the Gulbenkian Museum. We chose the outdoor seating because it was a lovely day, and the inside was a bit too warm. The wait staff was super friendly and quick to help us out. They even brought the English menu without us asking! That was a nice surprise. I ordered the farinata, a Genovese-inspired street food that the menu described as a chickpea flour pizza. It was pretty accurate! The flavor was great, but the 'crust' was a bit mushy and I had to eat it with a fork. It was still tasty, though. For 14 euros, I thought it was a bit pricey, but it was still worth it. If you're into healthy food, you'll definitely love this place!

Perfect brunch

Great brunch. Had golden mylk and red velvet to drink. To eat we tried their buratta and it was incredible. We also tried their omelette which as well was very nice. Also had their season raw cake and very delicious chestnut puree. We sat outside which was very nice too.

Healthy goodness

Recommended by a local friend, my meal was tasty but more importantly healthy. My favorite was the Greek Salad. Great coffee and desserts as well. Great outdoor seating area, which seems to be a common attribute of great Lisbon restaurants.

A Delicious and Healthy Experience: Earth Bowl and Ginger Elixir

The vegan Earth Bowl was an absolutely delightful discovery! Every bite was bursting with fresh, well-balanced flavors, and the quality of the organic ingredients was evident. The crunchy vegetables, well-chosen legumes, and grains, paired with a light yet flavorful dressing, made for a satisfying and wholesome meal.
The ginger elixir was equally enjoyable: refreshing with just the right touch of spiciness and natural sweetness. A perfect combination to complement the meal and give a boost of energy.
The ambiance of the place is cozy, with a relaxed and thoughtfully curated atmosphere—ideal for a rejuvenating break. It’s definitely worth visiting for anyone looking for a genuine and tasty experience. Highly recommended! Ah dont miss the raw cheesecake. Its art !

Looks nice but bland

I was disappointed with the flavors and texture of the food. Maybe the chef was having an off day. The not toast was bland and unexciting and the pancakes stodgy and flavourless. It’s a shame cos the place is cute and i really wanted to like it

Pros: Food looks pretty , Music playing was nice, Cute inside

Cons: Bland disappointing food, Service wasn’t super and food was slow

Nice place for a quick bite

Sat on the outside terrace for a quick late lunch. Had an Elixir shot, a daily juice, tzatziki and an Ohmmm-let.
All around very good but the tzatziki was a little bland. Lovely service and people.

Pros: Fully vegan

Very Beautiful Breakfast and Brunch Place

It’s a very beautiful location! We had the chocolate pancakes, the omelet and a banana chocolate peanut butter smoothie. It’s a very healthy place I guess, so the dishes also tasted that way, which gave me a good feeling though!

Pros: Pretty good , Healthy

Cute Place

Had the chocolate pancakes and the omelette. Omelette was good, pancakes had room for improvement. Everything tasted very healthy though. The highlight was a great smoothie (the banana peanut one)

Cute

It is a full vegan cafe, with a cute interior design. The outside tables and chairs are not very stable. The food is also tasty, recommended for a light lunch or brunch. They do not have decaf coffee available unfortunately.

We may have set the bar too high!

We visited this beautiful cafe on our first day in Lisbon and my main concern is, is it all down hill from here? This place is going to take some serious beating. Everything was perfect. Thank you

Edit: We visited for a second time as it was just too good and we were lucky enough to meet the owners and their adorable dog. The food and drinks were great once again. Highlight of my trip

Tasty and healthy food

Nice to find some healthy options that are also very filling and very delicious. We had a chickpea omelette and black bean burger. The coffee was very good as well.
The setting has good music and has a cozy interior.
