Great lunch deal, incredible food

We came to the green affair twice within a few days because we loved the food so much! We tried the cauliflower starter and rye bread starter, the gyoza, the linguine, and the chickpea burger, roasted veg side, all of which we loved. The Food was clearly freshly prepared and made with quality ingredients. I also tried a cocktail, can’t remember the name but it was lush! The staff was lovely and spoke good English.
Tip: at lunchtime, they have a great deal.

Pros: Quality food, Lovely staff, Perfect portion size

Aniversário de casamento

O espaço é muito simples mas bem decorado com destaque para a cor verde e o dourado e havia distância suficiente entre as mesas.

A comida estava muito boa de apresentação e sabor, o que surpreendeu o meu marido que não é vegan.

Pedimos o Tataki de melancia que foi uma surpresa deliciosa, o Bao ao vapor com couve-flor panada em panko e molho hoisin, que na minha opinião, para um Bao estava um pouco seco ou contrário de ser fofinho como era de esperar. A outra entrada, foi "coxas" de couve flor que estavam bem cozinhadas mas sem sal. Os molhos caseiros para acompanhar, tornaram esta entrada ainda mais gulosa!

Para os pratos principais, A hambúrguer Saldanha e o risotto de espinafres, espargos e cogumelos. Muito bom. As sobremesas também gostamos muito.

Quanto ao serviço...

Um conselho: antes de entrar no serviço ou antes de sentar alguém nas mesas, deve-se certificar, se as mesas não balançam. É chato ser o cliente a reparar nesse detalhe . Os pratos principais só vêm para a mesa depois das entradas estarem terminadas e a mesa limpa e preparada para receber os pratos.
Tirando isso, foi uma boa experiência que voltarei a repetir.

Pros: Bom preço/qualidade

Wide range of choices from Asian flavors to burgers

The poke watermelon bowl and spinach risotto was delicious

Updated from previous review on 2021-08-17

Pros: Spinach risotto was outstanding , Asian inspired flavors, Golden chai

Cons: Cauliflower with Panko was bland, Potstickers bland with much needed sauce

Good but not great

We went there because of all the great reviews and ended up quite a bit disappointed. Some dishes were nice (Gyosas, Cauliflower, Sem Espinhas a Lagareiro) others were a bit lame (ceviche and another dish I don’t remember). The service was very slow even though there were barely any guests. Regarding the other really great vegan options in Lisbon, I won’t come back.

Good food

Delivered by uber, our food came in nice paper packages.
I ate the kids menu, with tofu burger and loved it! The wings were TO DIE FOR!!
My boyfriend ate the pesto pasta w/ mushrooms and tomato and liked it (he's not vegan).
For dessert it was a Charlie Brown, we didn't knew what it was. I didn't like it because of the fruit jam but he really did.
The prices were fair for the menus.

Pros: Good portions, Wings!!!!!!!

Meh!

Lots of great reviews, so I was expecting something great. It didn't happen.

The food felt microwaved, cauliflower wings were tasteless, the bao bun was hard and cold...

The saviour was the pesto pasta, which despite being extremely oily, it tasted good.

The service was good, and the waitress gave us a really good wine recommendation. So yeah, we'd go back for a drink, but that's it.

A must in Lisbon!

During lockdown I tried the take-away and it was good, so I'm happy I was able to come to the restaurant.
I wasn't disapointed, the food was delicious (try the cauliflower wings!) and the service was perfect.

All that for a very reasonnable price!

Great.

Very nice vegan place in city center, colourful plate presentation and great staff. Food was good, but the appetizers tooked the price! For drinks I only recommend the mango wango, it's great! Both desserts were flavourful, but a bit too sweet (I recommend splitting if you're not too much into sugar).

@ Lunch
Starters: Vegetable Gyazos 👍👍👍 + Cauliflower Wings 👍👍 + Spinach Croquettes 👍👍
Mains: Seitan Steak 👍 + Katsu Curry (spicy) 👍
Drinks: Mango Wango 👍👍👍 + Green Smoothie 👎
Desserts: Chocolate Tart 👍👍 + Cheesecake Raw 👍👍

One of my favorite

Diverse food with a lot of taste, all dishes are made with care, and it tastes great. I ordered about 10 times there during the lockdown and I always had a good meal.

One of the best vegan restaurants in Lisbon!

I came here for my birthday dinner and the experience could not have been better.
This restaurant is doing a great work in showing how traditionally Portuguese dishes (and others) can be made vegan with any compromise on the taste.
The restaurant is spacious and gorgeous. The staff is extremely efficient, friendly and accommodating. If you are undecided on what to eat, they will happily you take you through the menu and give their recommendations.
The prices may not be the most affordable ones but given the quality of all the food (all ingredients used are fresh due to their "no frozen foods" policy), service and creativity and clear passion put on the cooking, I actually don't think that they are too high at all.

I went for "sem espinhas à lagareiro" (tofu-based) because this used to be my favorite codfish Portuguese dish and it did not disappoint at all. Just went to show how I am not missing anything by not eating animals.

Totally recommend the dish and the restaurant itself.

Not quality food

The ambience of the restaurant is nice. The service ranged from very rude to good depending on the servers. The prices are about average for vegan food in Lisbon.
The food was not good. We ordered two starters: the spinach pastry and the alheira balls and two different house burguers.
The spinach pastries had no taste. The alheira balls were slightly better but still not good enough.
One of the burguers also had very little taste. Imo both of them had too much sauce and laked a vegan cheese. The fried sweet potatoes which is the side dish was also not good.
When the food is deep fried (which is the case for all these dishes) you expect it to be really tasty, which was not the case.

Upscale cuisine

If you want to have traditional food in vegan version or simply great fusion style kitchen - this is the place for you in Lisboa. We had two traditional dishes, usually fish dishes - and they were unbelievable „fish-like“. I don’t know how they marinated the tofu but never had such an authentic taste and haptic. The location was nice because they have a little „garden“ and service was first class. Last but not least, the wine was pretty nice too, and prices were more than fair (they could raise them without question!) for what we‘ve got!!! Highly recommended friends

Very tasty meal

The restaurant has a super nice vibe, a very good place for lunch solo/with friends/family.
The food is super tasty and honestly super worth it.
They have a lunch menu for ~9,50 euro and you can get entrèe, main dish and a beverage.
However I got a super bad matcha at the end of the meal, was pretty much soy milk with a 'dirt' of matcha. Anyways, would not get it again for sure

Great Burger

Even though the menu is offering a range of dishes, I went for a quick hamburger on the run. The atmosphere inside is inviting and well designed. I took the hamburger moving mountains "chiado". It was a bit hard to manage without a chopstick to keep everything together but the taste was really good. Potatoes and mayo could be slightly better. Will go there again to try other dishes.

Versatility at its best

My main restaurant in Lisboa. Want to go in a suit with some business partners? Want to go on a first, second, hundredth date? With friends with shorts and a t-shirt? You will never feel out of place.

It is modern and hip, the food is delicious, the staff are extremely nice and caring.

Definetely recommend the seitan steak, and the cauliflower appetizers.

The prices are more than fair.

Pros: Nice vibe, Excellent food, Friendly staff
