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.

Your tummy will be happy! - Edit
Kong was one of our fav overall spots we tried, we even came back for lunch. I'd skip the Cauliflower app and go for the croquettes. The bisquote, octopus and Francesinha were phenomenal! appricate all the non alcoholic drink options and the prices were so fair!

Good food - Edit
We had a great dinner here and would come back. We ordered the croquettes (great sausage and cheese flavor, creamy inside, crunchy outside), the happy octopus (the whole mushrooms were delish), two kong salads, and an order of bread (toasted plus basil pesto). The portions were generous.

The best place in Lisbon - Edit
Absolutely loved it here. The steak, egg and chips was my favourite meal in Lisbon. The croquettes were super tasty and flavoured with smoked paprika. The steak and egg was covered in a very mustardy sauce that was delicious. Highly recommend going here.

I wish I could eat more! - Edit
The food was so delicious that I actually wished my stomach would expand more. 😄
Read moreI had the vegan francesinha sandwich and omg! I am so glad I had a chance to try a vegan variety of this local delicacy.
The service was amazing. Waiters were very very busy but super kind nonetheless.
If you want to visit this place on Saturday I recommend you get a reservation as it gets super crowded. Go vegans! ❤️

Local vegan food, great staff & ambient - Edit
We had no reservation, but staff helped is get a table. Food was amazing ( had Francezcana and some bean dish), it was hard to believe it's plant-based. Worth the money, if you like good food!

Pros: Very very tasty food, Friendly and helpful staff, Nata cake was to die for
Cons: Tacos were on the dry side

Good vegan food - Edit
Soup of the day (Red Beans) was delicious and very fast delivered.
Read moreTacos trilogy didn't look much at first, but tasted good and was still enough.
Snickers tart was not too sweet and was very similar to the original.
Lemonade with wild berries was a tasty accompaniment to the meal.
Nice polite service. WC available.
Pros: The taste

Definitely worth a visit - Edit
What a great experience! We had Croquettes, Skewers for a starter and Bitoque and Francesinha for a main dish. Cheesecake as dessert. Everything was an experience itself, we liked the both starters most. The homemade Cocktail sauce was amazing and the skewers as well. I really liked that they are working with mushrooms and am very happy, that there is a vegan interpretation of Portuguese food. In the end we tried the vegan cheesecake which is an absolute must-try especially because it was uncommonly without soy!!

Excellents plats portugais - Edit
L'ambiance est agréable et le personnel très souriant. Les croquettes portugaises en starters sont vraiment excellentes.
Read moreEn plat principal le bitoque est incroyable ! Le seitan grillé avec son "œuf" et sa sauce est à se damner. Il est juste dommage que le plat soit présenté en 2 assiettes : l'une avec le seitan grillé et sa sauce (délicieux et recherché) mais la deuxième assiette est plutôt banale (salade verte, riz, frites). Il serait plus agréable de servir le tout ensemble dans une assiette pour avoir un plat visuellement plus réussi.
L'octopus salad était bonne, les saveurs bien mariées entre elles mais les feuilles de chou servies ce soir là dans mon plat étaient trop dures pour être agréables à mâcher.
En dessert la tarte de nata avec sa boule de glace façon cookie dough était un vrai régal.
EN RÉSUMÉ les portions sont amplement suffisantes, les plats savoureux et le personnel très agréable. J'y retournerai avec grand plaisir !
Pros: Personnel très accueillant

Delicious - Edit
Everything here is perfect - the food, the menu, the service. I loved it!
Read moreI had to start the Portuguese skewers and they were really tasty.
Then I had the happy octopus which was so good.
For dessert I struggled to pick from all the delicious options but went for the cheesecake which was exquisite.
I also had the passion fruit mojito which was really good.
Will definitely come back if I get the chance.
