Restaurante acolhedor e simpático ! - Edit
Fomos jantar duas vezes. Na primeira vez ficámos no terraço e foi agradável. O restaurante é pequeno mas muito acolhedor.
Read moreO serviço é muito simpático e genuíno, gostámos muito!
Utilizam produtos de época e locais. Alguns pratos muito originais (panacotta de Figo).
Comemos espetadas de tofu (Muito boas) almôndegas de ervilhas ( muito boas), feijoada (óptima) tofu no forno (foi o que menos gostámos), caril de grão (achei muito doce). Bebemos sumos naturais óptimos e sobremesas: salame (excelente), panacotta de figo( muito boa), mousse de ameixa (original e saborosa), folhado de maçã e Figo ( muito bom).
Vamos voltar com certeza!
Pros: Simpatia, Local sossegado e acolhedor, Muitas opções vegan

A lovely relaxed and calm restaurant - Edit
Really interesting place and lovely people. We felt really relaxed and enjoyed being able to sit and chat without feeling the usual restaurant pressure to leave! As we only ordered the main course and juice, I can’t comment on the starters or dessert. Both our meals were vegan (rissoles in a delicate mushroom sauce and roasted tofu and veg) and very tasty - the juice was amazing! Next time we'll choose to sit on the roof terrace as it won’t be so hot. The view is 'urban' but really interesting (good for sketching!)
Read morePros: Lovely staff, Intimate, Tasty variety of meal choices

Travelling Portugal/Portimao - Edit
Nice little place owned by very kind and smiling people. Enough vegan options with the daily menu, but you have also vegetarian options. We only took the vegan ones, and it was delicious. The + is the top terrace, where we stayed to eat. Low price, and good quality. I recommend it.

Three (small) floors of taste and atmosphere! - Edit
I went there to celebrate my anniversary with my partner, and I believe it would have been difficult to have chosen somewhere I would have enjoyed the same.
Read moreIt looked quite small and with a decoration much to my taste, and we could choose to eat indoors or in the 2nd floor terrace. We REALLY enjoyed the food, the wine (waitress’ suggestion), and dessert was delicious and not very “sugary”, GREAT.
At the end we where offered a Madeira firewater shot, perfect to prompt digestion. And we even got to chat a bit with the owners-cooks-waiters couple. Thank you for making my anniversary an even better day!
Pros: delicious, tasty, good looking food, cheap, lovely staff
Cons: have to get back there to find some!

Super tasty food with an awesome view - Edit
The owners offered us several delicious vegan courses and even prepared us split meals when we couldn't decide which one to choose. All of our menu was super delicious and tasty! The view from the terrace is amazing and the staff is super friendly. Stay a minute longer to have a chat with them.

excellent - Edit
Lovely wee unexpected find, great staff and great food. Sat on the roof terrace with our food and a few organic wines and beers, very chilled venue.
Read moreThe owners are very friendly and make you feel at ease as soon as you walk through the door. There is some nice local artwork on the walls.
We were given a complimentary cherry liqueur as we paid our bill, it was very nice
We asked where the local wool shop was and the owner actually walked us to it to show where it was.
Would highly recommend this place if you are in the Algarve, really worthwhile searching out
Pros: friendly, lovely food
Cons: none

Un pequeño gran Restautante - Edit
Si ya es difícil conseguir un sitio con las tres B, aquí lo logran con holgura, porque en más que bueno es excelente, más que bonito encantador y más que barato es muy barato. La carta es corta pero muy buena, la amabilidad del personal es de otra época y si se tiene la suerte de poder comer en la azotea en un día de sol, ya no se puede pedir más! Para repetir, sin duda alguna
Read morePros: la amabilidad del personal, la tranquilidad del sitio , la calidad de la comida
Cons: notara personas con movilidad reducida no es muy a

Great food and charming location - Edit
Small and cozy place with very friendly and attentive service and very good food. There is a small set of daily specials to choose from, and all but one dish (including dessert!) were vegan. Funny little building with dining on several floors, with a great covered but open-air terrace on the top floor.

Absolutley Delightful - Edit
This is a beautifully restored old Portuguese house in the middle of Portimao.Run by a delightful couple who care passionately about good food,cook everything between them and even grow some of the produce in their own garden.
Read moreNearly everything they make is vegan,we ate a tasty tofu stew and bean meatballs in delicate sauce.Both delicious.
Both partners have immaculate English and make time to converse with you.The whole meal,the people and the surroundings made for a wonderful experience.Extremely reasonable prices,we look forward to going back. xx
Pros: Too many to mention
Cons: None that I can think of!!

As Fresh as a Mint Leaf in a Mojito - Edit
Set in a truly gorgeous narrow and high building with a delightful roof terrace at the top offering a great vista over the town. We sat in what I named 'the White room' on the second floor. A beautifully decorated dining room with a patio window seat. To start we had a freshly prepared platter consisting of a side salad with fig, cucumber and a crisp bread topped with tomatoes. Whilst it didn't look too inspiring it really was delicious. The fig and cucumber were exceptional. It's not often you hear that about cucumber. A soft flour salt very soft in texture and recommended by staff provided a very welcome seasoning. The two main courses were served separately. First a mixed tofu kebab served with roasted tomatoes and courgettes. Second a lightly spiced mixed vegetable curry with plenty of turmeric and perhaps fenugreek. Both dishes were very good, hugely appreciated and earthly tasty. A couple of glasses of white wine fulfilled the occasion. At €24 this was excellent value. I was very tempted to try a Portuguese organic gin with tonic. Definitely next time. This is a place that I could imagine being a diamond at night. May I take the opportunity now to say that we returned a week later for a G&T and a glass of organic sangria. They were both excellent and it was nice to meet the lovely staff again. Easily 8/10 4 Happy Cow stars. I would like to come back at night sometime to maybe confirm a 5 star rating.

Beautiful building - Edit
The restaurant itself is very impressive, the building is beautiful and the interior is fresh with a little bit of minimalism and some antique related quirkiness added in. The food is very good and staff are extremely friendly. This is a place I love and want to come back to for more.

Cute little place with a nice rooftop terrace. Really friendly staff! - Edit
The food was delicious, staff super friendly and they recomended us places to see in portimao. Me and my boyfriend had the most delicious veggie balls we've ever tasted, they were so juicy and had a delicious sause on them. We also had roasted tofu which was really good, and tofu skewers wich were not so good, in our opinion they were a bit boring. Really cosy place with a nice rooftop terrace. The only con was that the meals was not served with any carbs like potatoes, rice or bread (but you could add it if you wanted it)

Amazing!!! - Edit
We recently stayed not far from this place & found it using this app. We visited it twice in the week we was in Portimao & can not fault it at all! The food was amazing, the Homemade juices were spot on & the service was excellent. We ate on the roof terrace both times & loved it. Our 14 month old vegan toddler gave it his seal of approval. A must if you're in the area!
Read morePros: Very good vegan food at a very good price
Cons: None
