Simply incredible! - Edit
Kong totally wowed us. We had cauliflower wings and croquettes to start which were tasty and plentiful, but the big wow factor came from the ‘steak and egg’ dish, served with a side of rice, salad and fries (a very generous portion too!). Honestly incredible. This was so tasty and a really cool concept for me. We concluded with the Nutella cake and the parfait for dessert – I highly recommend the parfait, what an amazing combination of mango and chocolate. Definitely go if you’re in Lisbon. I hope to return someday.

Best meal of our trip to Lisbon
Read moreWonderful staff and the food was amazing. I had the ‘salmon’ which was made from tofu. It was incredible and the accompanying potato dish was one of the best things I’ve ever eaten. The parfait dessert was rich but absolutely delicious
Would go back in a heartbeat

Vegan Portuguese meal in Kong - Edit
This place is a true gem, skillfully merging traditional Portuguese flavors with vegan cooking. Upon entering, you’re embraced by a warm and inviting atmosphere, with a lush green interior that serves as a perfect escape after a day spent exploring the sun-drenched streets of Lisbon. Kong’s convenient location is ideal for a post-sightseeing stop, just a four-minute walk from Cais do Sodré station and providing direct access to the Belém district.

Great service/ get the starters - Edit
I had the Francesinha, which was their vegan version of a traditional Portuguese sandwich. It was fantastic! My friends both had the seitan steak and liked theirs less. But, the starters were a hit all around. I think we got bruschetta and croquettes. Wow. Yum!

Kong is king - Edit
Great experience all around. Had a beautiful out of the ordinary bruschetta as a starter. For mains I chose the steak, which was the most unique tasting, meat imitating dish I‘ve had. Loved it

The best vegan food! - Edit
A high level chef restaurant, the dishes were great, prices match the quality of the dishes. There are several gluten-free options, we liked the salmon with tofu the best, and the octopus mushroom dish with the vegetables and potatoes. We will definitely be back!

Fantastic food! - Edit
A brilliant spot for vegan food and worth the hype! I've been here both times I've visited Lisbon and have been wowed on both occasions. It offers plenty of traditional dishes with a vegan twist. Would reccomend everyone to give it a try. Decent prices too!

Delicious and creative food - Edit
We recently visited Kong whilst on holiday in Lisbon. Everything from the decor and the style of the restaurant through to the menu and food is well thought out. The staff were great and really helpful.
Read moreWe tried the homemade cheese and the croquettes to start, followed by the "steak and egg" and finally the parfait and Nutella cake. It was all delicious.
The homemade cheese really blew us away. So creamy and light, it went beautifully with the bread, salad and orange vinegrette.
The steak and egg dish was creative, inventive and a great way to try a traditional Portuguese dish.
The desserts were so good. My only criticism was that I wasn't keen on the mango sorbet with the parfait. I didn't think it worked and didn't add anything to the dish.
Otherwise everything was great and the prices are very reasonable.

OMG- so incredible!!! - Edit
The food, the drinks, the space… everything felt so authebtic and tasted so delicious. The staff was incredibly hospitable, even though we came early. The sauces on the dishes where to die for. We had the octopus, salmon, cheese app, and the white sangria. My partner and I enjoyed every bite. Desserts were the highlight. Order 1 of everything!!

Really lovely Portuguese food - Edit
A great find for us not far from the main train station and near the river front.
Read moreIt's only a small restaurant but really nicely set out and atmosphere.
Food was all vegan and what was really special was that most dishes were vegan versions of traditional Portuguese dishes - the only restaurant we found doing this - and the experience was great. The desserts were a treat too
Prices were good too - we had 2 mains, 2 desserts, 2 fruit juices and 2 coffees for around 30 Euros - good value we thought.
Staff were also really welcoming and helpful - nice attitudes.
Would highly recommend a visit - we are going back for sure before we leave Lisbon.
Pros: Portuguese food options, Food taste & presentation, atmosphere & staff
Cons: None
