Is it really Junk food? - Edit
Nestled within the Chiado district, Plant Base presents a concealed entrance that may easily be overlooked, as I initially did. However, upon entering, a remarkable transformation occurs. The interior is spacious and features two distinct dining areas: one situated near the entrance and the other situated around the corner, adjacent to the bar.
Read moreWhile the description of Plant Base suggests that it serves “junk food,” I strongly disagree. The culinary offerings here are exceptional. I have visited Plant Base twice within a week, and each time, I have been pleasantly surprised.
On my first visit, I indulged in The Special Burger, a delectable creation featuring a Beyond Burger patty, vegan cheese, caramelized onions, fried onions, tomatoes, cucumber pickles, and sriracha mayonnaise, all nestled on a red onion bun.
On my second visit, I opted for the JHOL MOMO, a culinary masterpiece consisting of steamed Himalayan Momos immersed in a delectable tomato curry, complemented by red onions and cilantro.
In my opinion, I have discovered my favorite Plant Base dish. The JHOL MOMO boasts a harmonious blend of flavors, with a touch of heat that resonated with my preferences. Its deep, rich taste left me thoroughly satisfied.

Best vegan onion rings - Edit
It’s very hard to find vegan onion rings in the USA. It was a delight to find onion rings with top taste. He had put a BBQ sauce over them and it tasted great. The margherita pizza is great too. In general all their breads are made well
Read morePros: Onion rings, Garlic bread, Margherita pizza and pesto pizza

Good food and lively vibe - Edit
I had already eaten from this restaurant at home, through delivery, before going there. Of course food is better right from the oven/stove, so I even liked it more. Good variety of "junk" good, with great flavors. The place is small, can be noisy and you can get cigarette smoke if you are seated at the entrance section and someone is smoking outside. I would recommend it for those looking for a more energetic and younger vibe dinner.

Lovely vegan spot in Lisbon - Edit
I wish I'd had more time to visit this restaurant again! Terrific staff and excellent portions, very reasonably priced. We had momos and pizza, both so fresh tasting, and with leftovers to take home.

Vegan Vibes in Chiado! - Edit
Plant Base is an unassuming hole-in-the-wall in the nearby Chiado district. Been there twice for some awesome "junk food"! First time there, I wasn't too hungry and just went with a starter of nachos for my main. Perhaps I was more hungry than I thought because those nachos were awesome and I scarfed them down! Second time I went there, I ordered the seitan tacos. OMG, that was just about the best seitan I've ever had! (Tasted like "beef.") It was awesome! The staff, on both occasions, were very friendly and welcoming. The ambiance is funky-nature (lots of plastic plants). Plant Base is definitely my go-to for scrumptious vegan "junk food"...!
Read morePros: Food!!!, Funky on the inside., Friendly Folks!

Had a pizza and burger at this place. Both were super tasty! 🤤🤤🤤 Also, a nice lady working there made sure our kid was warm by turning on heat, plus she brought her an extra glass of ice tea (free or charge) 🤗

Great pizza! - Edit
Pizza was definitely the highlight of the meal, we ordered the Big Mac one and they'd absolutely nailed the flavours. The Mac and cheese was nice and so were the fried momos, but they had nothing on the pizza.

Very tasty! - Edit
Was very quiet when we went so service was very quick. Food was really tasty, I had burger and chips and they were really nicely done. We also had the mushroom pizza and that was super tasty, would have definitely gone back!

A Vegan Gem in Lisboa - Edit
Went there last night and was delighted with their offerings. It’s a steep climb to get there but so worth it. The pizzas were delicious (we tried 3 kinds) but the overall most delicious thing there that we tried was the Mac & Cheese! I’m a pretty tough critic for Mac & cheese and this one was outstanding!

Amazing pizza and Mac n cheese - Edit
After reading a few of the comments, I went with low expectations, but the food was really tasty. It was amazing! I loved the Mac and cheese, and also the pizza (I forgot the name, it was salchicha something). Kind staff. Totally recommended.
Read morePros: All vegan
Cons: A bit pricey but probably because of the location

Good momos - Edit
I had iced tea (no sugar, yay) and the fried momos, which came with sauce and ketchup. Unfortunately, no “fish” the day I was there - I’d like to try the fish-and-chips. They have burgers, nachos, momo bowls, pizza, mac-n-cheese, fries - lots of comfort food. Other diners were evidently enjoying their pizzas and momos-in-sauce.
Read morePros: all vegan

Food was good - Edit
The food was good but we didn’t feel very welcome. We turned up and was told to sit anywhere, picked our seats and started to look at the menu when a group of 4 came in and wanted to sit on the table next to us we was told we had to move (no others turned up)

Disappointed - Edit
Honestly, was expecting much better. Had the fish and chips and the fish was super processed and soooooo dry. Burger was ok but nothing out of the ordinary.

Good enough - Edit
Food here is good, the staff is very friendly and the prices are fair. However I was a bit disappointed in the dishes as the pictures I had seen online look nothing like how they look in real life. The pizzas and Momo's we tried were good, but expected something else.

Below expectations - Edit
From the pictures and ratings in happy cow, this restaurant seems like a higher end Pizzeria. But it actually is a junk food spot with Nepalese roots that does a bit of everything.
Read moreDespite having very nice attention and good variety, the food was not as impressive as other places in Lisbon. The dishes lacked a certain *oomph* that pushed them from good to great.
The mushroom pizza was quite delicious, but everything else had room for improvement.
Not bad by any means, but definitely not what was advertised.

Stunning - Edit
We tried the mac and cheese starter which was so tasty! And got the mushroom and artichoke pizza and the Big Mac pizza, both of which were delicious. The pizza has a great crust and nice sauce. Thoroughly enjoyed!
Read moreEdit: went back again because the food was so good! This time tried the nachos which were insanely good, and the Jhol momos, great sauce, great level of spice, delicious
Edit 2: went back again! The food is just too good. This time we tried the fish burger and the prego- both very tasty! Also had the nachos and Mac and cheese again because they’re so good!
