Amazing and healthy food in wonderful atmosphere - Edit
The restaurant is tastefully decorated with nice wallpaper and many plants hanging from the ceiling - it perfectly suits the name of the restaurant. The food is great - you should try the tofu bruschetta starter and not leave without having some cakes. Staff could be a bit more friendly.

Average food, small portions, nice service - Edit
Had 3 mains, neither was very good. 2of3 were about half a size I'd expect for a main.

As a long time vegan, I'm afraid these kind of places make a bad rep for veganism. But anyway, wishing them well and wont b back
Service was nice n friendly

Creative food - Edit
Absolutely love this place. Very calm and open environment inside combined with lots of plants and nice colours. SO many fun options to try, really hard to choose what to order when there are so many new cool things to choose from. Food was served to a high quality.

The best in Lisbon - Edit
I've been there around 10 times - with the previous chef and with the current one.
Read moreThey have an amazing space and decoration, really good food (from appetizers to brunch options and main courses) and overall environment.
The staff is OK - you may get ones friendlier than others, but none of them are rude or unhelpful.
The price is in par with what you get. It's not a cheap option, but not an overly expensive one either.
The desserts should also really be mentioned, as they are some of the best I've ever tasted.
Pros: Amazing food & desserts, Space & environment, Outdoor tables option
Cons: It may get a bit noisy at times

Vegan haute cuisine - Edit
Nice atmospheric restaurant with, in my opinion, very tasty and flavorful dishes you normally are served in fancy restaurants. The staff made me feel very welcome and although I was alone, seating was no problem and I could take my time having my dinner. Very reasonably priced and would definitely recommend visiting!

A great addition to the city - Edit
Ao26 one of our favourite restaurants so we were excited to try this. We were not disappointed. It looks lovely from the outside and the decor is great.
Read moreWhen we went through the menu we were bowled over by the range of options. It was genuinely difficult to come to a decision. In the end it didn't seem to matter as every single dish was delicious. Flavours were well balanced and ingredients complemented each other.
Service was great and all of our questions were answered in detail.
Portion size was so generous.
Pros: All of the food was really great
Cons: None

Favorite vegan restaurant - Edit
I wish this place was back home. We ended up going three times when in Lisbon. I saw other reviews saying the service was slow, but we only experienced that once. And to be honest, the quality of the food more than made up for it. While we love breakfast foods, we found those actually to be what we enjoyed least. The cheese fondue was expensive (€15) but was delicious. The desserts are not to be missed here.

Dog unfriendly - Edit
I would have expected in the meanwhile at least vegan restaurants in Portugal would be dog friendly. But the rude employee tried to convince me that it is the law (law has been changed 1st of may 2018...) i would have had a better impression if staff would not have been rude to me...

The is also raw there - Edit
J’ai fait du take away chez eux. Accueil très gentil et serviable. J’ai pris des ravioli crus (excellent) ainsi qu’un cake cru à la noix de coco qui a été apprécié par toute la famille. On y trouve aussi des fromages de noix (vegan et/ou crus). Paradise for raw vegan also.

Gourmet-like restaurant - Edit
Welcoming place with a lot of place. I had the scambled tofu bruschetta (the mushroom bruschetta is more common) and the tagliatelles and both were really excellent. The only negative thing to say is that portions are not generous. Food is fresh.
Read moreCake was good too but I really prefered the salty food.
Staff was really friendly.

Not the best - Edit
The waffles were great but the burger was bland and no bun just placed on a square piece of bread with some root veg crisps on the side, the flavour and texture combinations could have been more inspired, one of the male waiters was also quite abrupt bordering on rude
Read morePros: Waffles
Cons: Uninspiring and not great service
