Great food, awesome staff, cool decor

We had made a reservation, and when we arrived the place was packed! The servers were super friendly and suggested wines and food for us. The decor and atmosphere were great - totally added to the experience. The items we chose off the menu were well-prepared and reasonably priced. Will definitely go back on our next trip!

Pros: Food was delicious and well prepared, Reasonable prices, Great selection of different plates

Great food, great atmosphere

The two waiters were very nice today. Food was excelent, didn't expect anything else after the previous reviews.
I did not find the portions especially big (not too small either!), had olives and bread for starter and a regular dish, was enough but not too much.

Must visit when in Lisbon!

After reading all the raving reviews, we knew we had to go here. We were a little nervous because we were afraid that the reviews overhyped it but it deserves all the hype!! It was so good and a perfect meal for our final night in Lisbon. The falafel was amazing and we shared the bibimbap and the gado gado which were both so good. The cheesecake was the perfect dessert to finish it all off. The portions are quite large so we were happy we shared one starter and dessert so we could share. If you're planning on going be sure to reserve because they were basically fully booked (we reserved a few hours before).

Definitely worth the hype and really good value for money!!

Pros: Amazing food!!, Super friendly staff

Delightful experience!

One of the best places in Lisbon! Incredibly tasty food full of different flavours and textures. Bring a big appetite, because portions are generous but you’ll want to try everything. We thoroughly enjoyed the falafel with hummus as a shared starter, the bibimbap & gado gado as mains and a shared cheesecake as dessert. Must visit in Lisbon!!

Pros: Authentic, flavourful & innovative , More than your vegan restaurant go to meals, Super friendly staff!

nice bibimbap

Very tasty bibimpbap while the first dish from the menu (don’t remember the name) was not so much. If you wanna reserve, you should specify whether you want to sit inside or outside. Otherwise you won’t get a place inside, which happened to as and was a pity.

Superbe (& première) soirée en terrasse

Nous avons eu une excellente expérience chez O Gambuzino, une adresse qui vaut le détour!

L'équipe était chaleureuse, la bouffe délicieuse et le cadre très agréable.

Les prix sont très abordable pour une cuisine bio & locale!

Pros: Menu très intéressant, saisonnier, Beau choix de boissons, Equipe très chaleureuse

Be sure to book here!

The service here was fab, food amazing and prices crazy low. There’s plenty of choice and everything is homemade and well thought through, plus the cocktails are delicious. Can’t recommend anything in particular, it was all amazing! We ate far too much and recommended to everyone visiting Lisbon😄

Great experience!

Good atmosphere, great background music, and very friendly staff!
A great place to go with friends and share.
We ordered algarvian carrots as a starter, two small plates and the homemade apple and cinnamon kombucha to go with it.
The food was beautiful as well as delicious!

Pros: 100% plant-based

Quality food and good atmosphere

Book ahead to avoid disappointment. Really good food, plenty of options, and a great atmosphere both in and out. Had the jungle curry and pad Thai, both really flavoursome. Staff are friendly too.😄

Inventive vegan cooking

Highly recommended! The dishes look great and taste even better.
We started very nice falafel and mushroom tacos, followed by fried tofu and burger mains, which also excellent.

Wow

We got a selection of dishes we could share like the hummus, kimchi, tempura fried beans, cauliflower, falafel and the king oyster mushrooms. It was a dream. Everything was so good and really exceptional

Solid

We got the sweet and sour cauliflower, the tempura green beans, the tofu katzu, and the majura. We really enjoyed the appetizer but weren't super crazy about our mains. I had really wanted to try the gado gado, but they were out.

We also got an orange blossom and cinnamon tea, and it was perfect for sitting outside on a colder night.

Pros: All vegan, Indoor and outdoor seating, Amazing presentation

Cons: Mains weren't as tasty as other reviews described

One of the best vegan restaurant I tasted

This is simply one of the best vegan place I've been.
The food is super innovative, not stuck in "burgers & pizzas" making amazing food using many local ingredients.
The staff couldn't be nicer and helpful.
We loved it!

Pros: Super innovative food, One of the best vegan food I have tasted, Staff super friendly

Tasty, well presented food, kind staff

Food was excellent, drinks were very good, staff was kind and friendly, even when very busy. Very happy every time we have dined there, and we will definitely be going again.

Be aware that they are often booked in advance and plan accordingly!

Pros: nice happy hour, artfully constructed dishes, nice patio for a group if you book in advance

Cons: a little pricey but worth it for the quality

I'm speechless

This is some of the best food I've ever had. Truly phenomenal dishes, I was dining alone and literally said WOW out loud after taking my first bite of the scallops.
I felt like the prices were really reasonable for the quality, I've definitely spent twice this amount on much worse food. I did wait 20 minutes for the check, but I've found that service in Lisbon is relatively slow everywhere. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Explosion of flavors

Incredible place. Very small, make sure you make a reservation ahead.
Interior is very cosy. The food - incredible, plates prepared with the best flavor combinations ever.
We tried the bibimbap, burger of the week and Gado Gado. I cannot pick my favorite, they were equally amazing.

Went while on holidays for my 40th b day with 8 friends that are all meat eaters and pretty closed off to veganism. My friends ate more then me..we all loved the place. The food is just amazing. Its next level vegan.

Authentic and original. One of the best in Lisboa.

I have tried most of the vegan restaurants in Lisboa.
Most of them end up trying to veganize typical Portuguese dishes, rely too much on fried food or are generally a bit uninspired. That can be okay and I enjoy a lot of those, but...
O Gambuzino does it differently.
In my opinion, it is probably the most original and authentic places in the Lisboa vegan scene.
The food is just amazing. The veggies and ingredients are sourced from good suppliers (including Fruta Feia, great project), super fresh and well prepared. I tried the Bibimbap and the Gado Gado and they were full of flavor, perfect seasoning and very surprising combos.
Congrats to the lovely owners and competent team, well deserved success.

Great food and atmosphere

We came here after a really long day of tourist activities and eyes bigger than our stomachs! We ordered the gispatcho which was lovely and a fun experience poring into the crispy bites. Also the fries, again delicious. My friend had the house burger for main which looked good and I had the katsu - it was nice but the flavour lacked a bit. Everything looks very pretty when presented and it’s nice to see the chefs assembling infront of you. We left feeling sick but basically from over ordering on the fried side. I would go back and try some different options as liked the at home vibe and atmosphere

Pros: All vegan , Great atmosphere and space

Amazing Dinner in Lisbon

A must visit if you’re in lisbon. Had an incredible dinner here, some of the best veggie food I’ve ever had. My boyfriend loved it also. The staff were so helpful and accommodating to gluten allergen. We also had some great cocktails and everything was very reasonably priced. The venue itself is more of a casual place rather than a fine dining style.

Pros: Incredible food , Great drinks, Not expensive
