Melhor carbonara de Lisboa! - Edit
Este restaurante italiano é totalmente vegan e tem a melhor carbonara de Lisboa!
Read moreÉ um restaurante pequenino e muito acolhedor, traz-nos conforto tanto o espaço, a comida e os donos que são muito simpáticos.
Eles têm um menu fixo que por vezes muda na altura do verão.
De quase tudo o que já provei tenho alguns favoritos!
Começamos pelas entradas: Radbit ala Ligure e a Piadina Pizza do mamma Irmã. O “coelho”, acreditem ou não, é feito à base de bifes de soja mas o sabor e a textura é surreal! A piadina não é exatamente uma pizza porque muda a massa, mas é igualmente boa e esta, em vez de molho de tomate, é molho branco, muito bom!
De prato principal peço SEMPRE a carbonara! 🫣 O creme perfeito e com seitan caseiro.
Apesar de já ter provado outros que não fiquei tão fã (talvez por já estar muito habituada à carbonara) este acaba sempre por ser o meu favorito.
E para finalizar, o tiramissu é sempre a minha escolha. 🤎
É o único tiramissu que gosto por este não ser feito com chantilly, mas sim um creme cremoso com bolachinha.
Este restaurante fica em alfama, muito perto da estação de metro e comboio de Santa Apolónia, em Lisboa e talvez por vezes seja difícil de encontrar por ser meio escondido mas vale super a pena procurar!

The best Italian restaurant so far - Edit
Absolutely incredible experience. This vegan Italian spot completely blew me away. Every dish was packed with flavor, deeply rooted in tradition, and honestly better than the original non-vegan versions. You can feel the passion behind every bite,from the textures to the seasoning, everything was perfectly balanced.
Read moreWhat made it even better were the owners, genuinely kind, welcoming, and clearly in love with what they do. They took the time to explain the dishes, share their story, and made the whole evening feel personal and special.
It’s rare to find a place that respects classic Italian cuisine while reinventing it in such a bold, satisfying way. If you’re even slightly curious about vegan food, this place will convert you. A must-try.

The best vegan Italian food! - Edit
I ordered the vegan lasagne and it was one of, if not, the best vegan lasagne I have ever eaten. Beautifully cooked

I can only echo what others have said below. Everything is fantastic here. In addition, the outside seating was just the cherry on top, it feels like you are in a film.

Very delicious & authentic - Edit
Very friendly owner & delicious vegan food! The restaurant has a typical italian atmosphere, is very cozy because of its small size (but you can also sit outside when the weather is good) and has a good wine selection of portuguese & italian wines

Best Vegan Food in Lisbon - Edit
This was by far the best meal we had in Lisbon, and some of the best vegan Italian we’ve had in the world. On par with some of our favorite spots in Rome. The lasagna, gnocchi and tiramisu will change your life.

Lovely experience and food - Edit
This is a very small restaurant, but packs a yummy punch! The servers were great, the entire menu is vegan which is great not to stress about, and it’s amazing food! My partner is not vegan and loved it just as much! The tiramisu was incredible and I highly recommend squeezing it in if you can!

Experiência interessante! - Edit
Espaço pequeno em Alfama. Necessária reserva. Serviço simpático. Pratos italianos. Comemos bem. Bruschetta “faça você mesmo” saborosa. Eu pessoalmente não gostei muito do molho/ queijo vegetal. Sobremesas agradáveis

It’s amazing - Edit
Food is exceptional- the bruschetta and the ‘chicken’ starters were insanely good.
Read moreThe lasagne and carbonara also amazing.
Staff friendly .
It’s very small though so make sure you book, but it makes the atmosphere so gorgeous.
Also worth noting they only take cash or local bank cards . We forgot this and they were so kind about it and we just popped out and got cash at a local atm.

Vegan good but very unfriendly - Edit
The Restaurant is all vegan which is good and is located in a nice area, but the staff is very unfriendly so we won’t be coming back here.

Heaps of potential for a 5 star - Edit
Our meal started really strong with the 'octopus" dish and the meat skewers. They were both so delicious, 10/10. Big portions too
Read moreWe then got the carbonara and the calamari pasta.
The "calamari" was mushroom but not in rings or squares like I have seen vegan versions of previously, but just mushrooms, and it was in a tomato base sauce.
The sauce was really good but nothing like a seafood/calamari sauce I was expecting.
Unfortunately, the pasta was also significantly undercooked.
I personally did not like the carbonara flavour at all, my boyfriend didn't mind it, but he didn't like the meat pieces in it, which we're pretty sure was the same meat as the skewers but the texture was softer as it has probably been marinating in the pasta sauce.
We then got the tiramisu and panna cotta. The tiramisu was really good, it wasn't the best cream I've had but I loved the cake/biscuit, very yummy.
The panna cotta was caramel but the sauce was more like a burnt toffee, which I personally liked but I think it might be an acquired taste.
Overall the meal was pretty good
They also only take cash or portugal issued bank card. Would also recommend booking as we saw they had to turn people away as they were full

Fantastic Italian dishes made vegan! There is no real entrance to the restaurant - you have dinner on a terrace so don’t be alarmed that you somehow missed it. The team was incredible and so sweet.

Don’t skip this one! - Edit
We had such a lovely dinner here. The staff is so nice, it has a quiet terrace and the food was so. good. The portions of the starters are big, so be aware of that because you are going to want to order everything, like me, and be too full, haha. But the staff provided me with a container to take the rest home, so all’s well. Make sure to order the chick’n’ as a starter, it was great.
