It was disappointing

The service was good, the problem was the food and the price/quantity/quality ratio.
The food was either bland or tasted strongly of additives. The grilled watermelon: 5 small bites for 16,50, it was good but nothing extraordinary. The mushroom croquettes didn't taste of mushrooms, not did they have any mushroom bit for texture. The albondigas: the texture was fine, the taste was just too much. The tomato sauce was strongly flavoured with some type of additives, you lost any flavour of the products themselves...
For the price paid I was disappointed that the work on the produce was so limited.

Pros: The service

Cons: Price, Quantity , Taste

Good food but expected more

Went here for a dinner on a Sunday night. From reviews and previous pictures we expected something more gastronomic but dishes seemed to be much more simple than previously served. Menu largely consisted of dishes like a burger, pasta and fried snacks. We thought prices were therefore a bit on the high side. (26-28 euros for a pasta dish)
Everything tasted delicious though, it just didn't come close to the expectations we had so we were a bit disappointed on that front. Service was super friendly as well.
One big complaint was that two of us sat with our backs way too close to other guests. I constantly had to be aware not to lean back too much. Doesn't make for a relaxing night..

Pros: Delicious dishes, friendly service

Cons: Tables too close to each other, too high prices

Vegan topzaak in hartje Antwerpen!

Het duurde eventjes tot het lukte bij Lento te reserveren maar het was het wachten waard.
Heel lekker gegeten, mooie gerechten, vriendelijke bediening.
Het Lento kookboek schaften we na het diner meteen aan.

Good food

I like that their menu changes every few weeks depending on the available seasonal vegetables. You taste that they straight from the field.
In the back they have a nice cosy terrace were you can eat under a big three

Sehr empfehlenswert

Eine schöne Location mit schmackhaftem veganem Essen. Es gibt während einem Monat ein Menu (3 oder 4 Gänge). Faire Preise für diese gute Qualität. Wir haben es genossen.

high end vegan taste experience

fantastic multiple course meal, great food that was more high end, dare I say fine-dining? really beautiful food, and excellent service from the staff. I'd recommend going here if you'd like a fancy vegan meal with several course. truly excellent food

Delicious!

We ordered all courses, including the cheese platter, and everything they made was delicious as expected (we've also been to Lento in Hasselt before).

The cheese platter wasn't our thing, it's an acquired taste so be sure you know what you're getting into before ordering this, haha!

A true culinary experience

A beautiful restaurant that serves spectacular dishes, you can choose between a 3 or a 4 course. The menu changes every 5 weeks. The food is good and definitely one of the best experiences to fine-dine in Antwerp. Gluten-free option clearly labeled.

Love it

We've visited several times and were never disappointed by their menus. If you visit in summer, try to get a place in their garden.

Pros: Great atmosphere, Amazing food, Beautiful garden

Beautiful vegan dinner

We came here during the summer with non-vegan friends and we were all absolutely blown away by the food. The presentation is incredible and the dishes are almost too beautiful to eat. The textureres and flavors are so delicate and delicious. This was an amazing experience and very affordable for this type of food/restaurant. The service is excellent, the setting is beautiful. We definitely will be back.

Pros: All vegan, Fancy but affordable , Beautiful setting

Nice dinner

We had the 3-course menu (35€, drinks not included); but as we were two, we managed to try everything.
We really enjoyed our dinner, with the highlights of the current menu being the salsify/black radish terrine and the mashed potatoes with tofu and nori.

Note that they have a monthly seasonal menu, which is great because you'll always have something different to try.

The staff was friendly and the waiting times were a little bit longer than usual but nothing unsettling.

Pros: seasonal menu, yummy, friendly staff

Fancy vegan

We zijn met een groep van 12 bij Lento gaan eten en alles verliep vlot. Leuk als je wat verfijnder wil genieten van vegan cuisine. ❤️

Lekker en verfijnd eten. Zijn er nu al een paar keer geweest en het ontgoochelt nooit. Grootste troef is het smaken palet.

Great

Short menu, they serve 3 courses, 2 dishes to choose from in each. Exceptionally good main course and dessert, the starter was tasty, but not as special as what followed. Very pretty interior, a great place to sit in for a while. Definitely worth trying.

Highly recommended

They serve a menu with 3 or 4 courses.
The starter was a bit disappointing, red beet dumplings, but they were just a couple of slices of red beet folded together with just a little bit of filling. The size of the dish was rather small as well.
However, the main course and the dessert were really impressive.
the main dish had really great fries and a fantastic tasting steak tartare, with something on top that resemble an egg yolk. I don't know what it was, but it tasted great.
As a whole you get a great variety of food for a very reasonable price.

Service was really great as well

Pros: original dishes, great service, great value for money

One of the finest experiences ever

The three course menu was absolutely fantastic.
Flavours that I had never tried before exploded in my mouth with such an intensity that I was chewing with my eyes closed, fully absorbed by the sensations. Incredible, to try!
The restaurant is run by two beautiful and mannered people that will contribute to making you feel in heaven.

Vegan op een hoger niveau

Ik hoorde al langere tijd lovende woorden over Lento in Hasselt. Toen er een vestiging in Antwerpen opende moest ik er natuurlijk naartoe. Het eten was heel lekker, met verrassende combinaties en ook leuk gepresenteerd. Een 4 gangen menu kostte slechts 40 euro.
Het pand was ook zeer mooi. Het ligt op de oude Koornmarkt, tussen de tourist traps. Maar het restaurant loopt diep door waardoor je toch rustig kan dineren, met een fijne binnentuin. Het restaurant valt wel niet echt op tussen de andere restaurants waardoor we er de eerste keer los voorbij zijn gelopen 😉.
Klein nadeel is dat ze in het weekend in shiften werken dus dat je niet volledig vrij kan kiezen en bij de eerste shift toch een beetje moet doordoen.
Al bij al kom ik zeker nog eens terug!

Pros: Origineel, Leuke presentatie, Waar voor je geld

Cons: Shiften systeem

Subliem 👌

Elk gerecht was een waar kunstwerkje met heerlijke smaakcombinaties. Gezellig kader en vriendelijk personeel. Een absolute aanrader!
