World Class Vegan

This tour de force of vegan fare of the world was truly something to behold. Their fusion of flavors and dishes from all over the world, but somehow still keeping their Portuguese roots is something I had never seen before in a fusion style restaurant. I sat facing the kitchen and watched the chefs attention to detail in each plate which made for a magical evening. This restaurant seems to have all staff really caring about their food and is also very knowledgeable. When I read the one review stating this is the BEST vegan food they’ve had after eating at so many vegan restaurants, they’re not lying. Do not miss this restaurant if you’re in Lisbon. (I would also recommend reservations if you going with a larger group because it’s a very initiate space)

Oh yes indeed

One of the best vegan restaurants I’ve ever visited - absolutely top-notch food. If you’re in Lisbon make sure you eat here. If you’re not in Lisbon, travel to Lisbon and eat there, what are you waiting for?

Pros: All vegan!, Absolutely delicious food, really clever , Lovely staff

So good!!!

This was a true culinary experience. Everything we had was amazing! I particularly loved the bibimbap and the banofee, but everything we had was stellar. Our favorite place in Lisbon!

Pros: The favor combinations in dishes, The presentation, The staff

The most exciting menu I've encountered in a long time

Top-tier vegan dining. We only managed to sample a few of Lisbon's vegan restaurants in our short stay, and they were all good; but O Gambuzino was the best of the bunch by some margin.

I can't remember the last time I felt so excited just reading a menu, and the food itself made good on the promise. Presentation was excellent; taste was heavenly; and the staff were lovely. Highly recommended.

Pros: Taste, Presentation, Staff

Underwhelming

Cocktail of the day - very pretty, the cucumber taste overpowered the rest of the flavors.

Couve-flor Gochujang -- aka Cauliflower. Tasted good but it was too hard/crispy on the outside making it hard to cut and eat.

Bibimbap - it was fine, no more no less.

Tofu Katsu - the tofu itself is great...everything surrounding it not so much. The sauce is very strange and the dish would be better not completely drenched in it.

Based on all the raving reviews we expected something much better.

46€ including water.

Pros: Waiters know English

Cons: A bit pricey compared to the quality of the food, A bit pricey compared to other places we've been

Unique taste, so good!

YOU MUST GO HERE. Finally some creative, flavour rich, traditional vegan dishes. A nice break from the usual burger and pizza places! Staff are lovely, outdoor seating is great even in the evenings.

Amazing delicious eating!

I took the Bibimbap (the popular Bowl with the yellow egg on top) as I saw it on Happycow and wanted to eat this one cause it was so nice arranged. Now I can say that also the taste was as wonderful as the Look! I also took Banotoff Dessert which was also defnitly one of the most delicious Things I ever ate. For Drinks I chose Rose vine which was little sour and the ice tea without sugar (lavende and orange taste) which was fine, but I saw other Drinks for other visitour and they Looks more interessting😉My husband took only Humus and Cappuccino: all in all we paid Not more than 35€ which is such a Low prices for this Gourmet Level food!

Pros: Delicious healthy quality food, homemade, Very nice Arrangement in the plates, good prices, Really nice Location and well orfanized staff

Cons: Pictures on the Menü would be helpful ;)

Vg egg Bibimbap and other yummy choices!

The standout for me was the Bibimbap with vg egg yolk which was super vibrant and nutritional. I followed this with the panna cotta which was light and sweet, with caramelised pistachios, poached pear and hibiscus gel. Beautiful ❤️

The BEST

Si vas a Lisboa no puedes perderte este restaurante. El ambiente, la atención y el sabor de la comida es alucinante. Buena presentación, combinación de sabores muy originales. Alta cocina. Fuimos dos veces y arrasamos con todo. Es una experiencia única si te gusta comer bien y explorar veganos ricos por el mundo. Los cocteles impresionantes. Los postres...ufff. Casi lloro. No es muy caro, pero si no quieres gastar mucho, no pidas coctel con la comida (salen unos 9 euros).

Great place

Great place with such a cool design in the middle of largo do intendente. The food was delicious, the starters I would recommend the mushrooms vieiras , pica pau and the couvert.
The dishes were surprisingly good. The tofu katsu didn’t surprised that much comparing to the others. Masala cheesecake was a must.

Overall greta restaurant with great food and service!

Mein Lieblingsrestaurant in Lissabon!

Klein und gemütlich, doch hohes Niveau in der Küche & Bar: innovative, kreative uns köstliche Gerichte & Getränke. Freundlicher, schneller & beratender Service. Der hauseigene Karotten Orangen Kombucha und das fermentierte Gazpacho waren köstlich, tolle Idee! Habe euch bereits weiterempfohlen und werde gerne wiederkommen. Vielen Danke und Bravo!

Pros: Selbstgemachter Karotten Orangen Kombucha , Innovativ, Hohes Niveau in Küche & Bar

Good food

Wanted to love this restaurant, but it was just good. Some of the starters were amazing, some of the main dishes had maybe too many different flavours which doesn’t let you appreciate them. Overall, I liked the food but some dishes could be better.

We had the green sangria, the pani puri gaspacho, the tofu katsu, bibimbap, the brownie and the banoffee tart. Everything was delicious and beautifully prepared. The staff was so friendly and the menu is really fun.

Highlight of our trip

We had some great vegan meals in Lisbon, but this one was the highlight! To start we had the pani puri gazpacho (flavor explosion in your mouth!). For mains we ordered bibimbap (deliciously spicy, excellent kimchi, and a vegan egg yolk on top 😲) and ta’ameya (flavorful amd filling). To finish, we had the most tasty and silky panna cotta. Highly recommend this place, and be sure to make a reservation.

Excellent!

This is one of the best restaurants I've been to! We came in a group, two vegans and two non-vegans and all enjoyed it.

Originally I was going to order the bibimbap, but after reading so many reviews I decided to try the gado-gado. I'd highly recommend ordering the same! As a starter, the scallops (king oyster mushroom) were very flavourful and had a great texture. The other dishes were also great and beautifully presented, but the gado-gado was definitely the highlight.

The restaurant is on the more expensive side for Lisbon, but this is reflected in the quality of the food. It has indoor and outdoor seating and is dog-friendly. I'd probably recommend making a reservation.

Loved it here

Make sure to book to get a table inside! We got the hummus and crackers with kimchi to start. Both were delicious. The salad bowl with vegan egg yolk was tasty and the gado Gado was absolutely delicious. The homemade tempeh was amazing and the sauce was so tasty. The egg seemed just there for decoration and it was odd how cold it was!

Maravilhoso

O couvert é maravilhoso! Os pratos (experimentei o Bibimbap e o tofu katsu) eram muito saborosos e a apresentação digna de alta cozinha!
Experimentámos todas as sobremesas e também ficámos deliciados! O espaço é acolhedor e os funcionários muito simpáticos e prestáveis. Adorei tudo!

Pros: Comida saborosa e com apresentação incrível , Espaço acolhedor, Funcionários prestáveis

Gehobene Klasse zum angemessenen Preis.

Ich habe Bibimbap gegessen und den selbstgemachten Ginger-Ale. Alles war lecker. Die Sauce und das Kimchi könnte für einige etwas scharf sein.
Beim 2. Mal hatte ich Gado Gado und Maderian Storm. War wieder super lecker.
Wochenende sollte man vorher reservieren, sonst muss man etwas warten.
Bar oder Kartenzahlung möglich. Draußen sind auch schöne Sitzplätze.

Phenomenal starters!

I'd say the starters are the star here. The scallops, Tacos, and Cauliflower were are yummy, but the best one is the new peri dish. We ordered a second one, that's how good it was 🤤 Mains are still delicious but not the best mains we had in lisboa.

Fantastic

A great restaurant. Had the kimchi on rice crackers to start; the 'fish' with celeriac puree for main. Washed down with a fantastically fruity jug on sangria. All superb. Booking advised.

Pros: Atmosphere, Service

Cons: Nothing
