Great food in the heart of Lisbon

Vibey little place down some stairs with a little green space and sitting area at the entrance. Interior.

Ordered the Francesinha and Islander. Both were fantastic. Portions were pretty good, though if not sharing entrées, may be wise to order a starter, too. Service was pretty quick and pricing is on the higher side of what you will pay in Lisbon.

Overall my favorite dining experience in the city.

Ganz miese Stimmung.

Wir hatten im Internet gelesen, dass das Restaurant bis 23:00 Uhr geöffnet hat. Als wir dann um 22:00 Uhr eintrafen, waren wir erst begeistert, da schon der Eingang eindrucksvoll ist und der Laden sehr schön aussieht und wunderbar dekoriert ist. Doch als wir eintraten, merkten wir schon, dass eine sehr schlechte Stimmung dort herrschte. Der Service war unangenehm unfreundlich und überhaupt nicht serviceorientiert. Zum Beispiel: wir haben zu dritt drei verschiedene Tees bestellt. Diese wurden aber falsch zugeordnet, und als ich fragte, warum mein Gewürzteee nicht nach Gewürzen schmeckt, wurde ich nur angeranzt, dass ich mir die falsche Kanne gegriffen hätte. Es wäre ja klar, welcher Tee in welchem Kännchen ist, obwohl die Kannen alle gleich aussahen. Schon bei der Bestellung mussten wir mehrmals wiederholen, was wir haben wollten, da die Bedienung uns nicht verstehen wollte. Unser Englisch war ihr eventuell nicht gut genug, offenbar die meisten Gäste auch nicht, aber die schlechte Stimmung betraf tatsächlich alle Angestellten des Restaurants. Selbst in der Küche wurde kaum miteinander geredet. Ein freundliches Gesicht war überhaupt nicht zu sehen. Wir wunderten uns, was da los war. Das hat uns auch das Essen ein bisschen vermiest. Da wir einen Tag vorher im veganen Restaurant Kong waren, waren wir sehr verwöhnt. Das Level des Essens war zear nicht schlecht, aber auch nicht herausragend. Die vegane Eierspeise hatte zu viel von dem Kala Namak und schmeckte fast nur noch nach Schwefel. Da das Essen lieblos auf den Tisch geknallt wurde, wussten wir auch gar nicht genau was wo drinnen war, zum Beispiel bei dem Vorspeisenteller, was die einzelnen Portionen sein sollte. Alles in allem würde ich der Küche wegen es noch einmal versuchen, vegane Restaurants sind schon selten, man ist ja froh, wenn man mal etwas besonderes bekommt, aber der Service war so dermaßen schlecht, dass wir dort nicht mehr hingehen werden. Wirklich wirklich schade, wenn die noch ein bisschen weiter Freundlichkeit den Gästen gegenüber üben würden, könnten Sie ein wirklich ausgezeichnetes Erlebniss vermitteln. Da bin ich mir sicher. Was zusätzlich ein bisschen stört, dass alle Tische sehr sehr dreckig waren. Man mochte sich kaum auflehnen. Und das betraf nahezu alle Tische. 

Updated from previous review on 2025-11-05

Pros: Die Location, Das Interieur, Die Kreativität des Essens

Cons: Unfreundlicher Service, Miese Stimmung, Sehr dreckige Tische

Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts, Peter.

We’re glad you appreciated the restaurant’s décor and creativity in the food. However, we’re truly surprised by your description of the service and atmosphere, as this does not reflect the experience we aim to provide. Our team always strives to welcome guests warmly and maintain a clean and pleasant environment and we heavily regret that you felt otherwise during your visit.

As for arriving near our closing time that can sometimes create a busier moment for the team, though this should never affect the friendliness or care offered to our guests. We appreciate your feedback and will use it to ensure we continue improving.

We hope we can maybe in the future welcome you back to compensate you with the experience we're known to deliver to our customers.

Warm regards,

Arrogant service destroyed good food experience!

We were happy to have found this beautiful central location with such an amazing menue. But what happened to the staff? Noone of the team was warm and friendly to the guests. The waitress treated us nearly aggressively as we arrived 75 min before closing, did not want to explain anything for my family from a different country. She tried to push us to order faster and let me not order mashed potatoes – even though they had it! Coming from our table she talked in a bad way about us.
The tea came without spoons/sugar, when we asked for spoons we were given one only (for 3 teas) and they nearly threw the plates on the table instead of placing them nicely and properly. After 13 years in gastronomy I hardly ever had the such a bad feeling of unprofessional service – even though the chefs were great and this menu was creative, changing often. Well done!
Still: Next time I would leave, if a waitress treats us like we disturb her or are not welcome.

Pros: Super choice if food , Creative vegan menu, Nice location

Cons: Unprofessional waitresses, Arrogant cold atmosphere , Table surfaces looked dirty

Thank you for taking the time to share such detailed feedback.
We’re glad to know you enjoyed the location, the creativity of the menu and the work of our kitchen team. At the same time, we are disappointed that the service did not meet your expectations, as this is not the experience we want our guests to have.
When guests arrive closer to closing time the pace of service can naturally be a bit faster, but that should never be perceived as rude or unwelcoming. Your comments about the way you were addressed, the ordering process and the tea service are noted and will be discussed internally with our team to improve professionalism and consistency.
Regarding the tables, they are cleaned regularly. The marble surfaces can, however, show permanent ring marks from cold glasses, which may sometimes give the impression that they are stained.
We appreciate your perspective from many years in gastronomy and we hope you might consider giving us another opportunity in the future so we can offer you a visit that matches the quality of our food and the standards we aim for.
Warm regards,
The 26 Vegan Food Project Team

Great choice for Portuguese food!

First I though Ao26 will be too expensive and posh for me but actually not. And the money are definitely worth the food! Managed to get twice table without booking but that was a big luck! And yeah I had to come back because I just loved it so much!
Don’t waste time over burgers (I believe they taste lovely!) if you can get super delicious traditional veganised cuisine! On a first visit we had the Pastel de Bacalhau and Mushrooms A Bulhao Pato both very delicious and for mains Portuguese seitan and tofu a lagareiro. I must say I don’t fancy seitan that much but for this one I had to come back! So bloody good! The tofu was let’s say tofish but on totally top level! Delicious beautiful, loved it! Creme brûlée as dessert to share and all of these with drinks under €50 was very nice experience.
On my next visit I had melancolique ‘sardine’ - tofish with peppers on bruschetta , was too big for me as starter so had it packed with me for later. Seitan again and chocolate mousse at the end. Second great visit! dec 2019

Six years later came to this place to confirm as good they are. Was wonderful birthday dinner full of flavours and good wine.

Lovely restaurant, delicious food

Lovely menu, lots of Portuguese options, gorgeous venue, great atmosphere, delicious food - we had the mixed starter, such a great option to try lots of little bits and super yummy, we then had pasta and terrine, both rich, complex in flavour and large portions.

Pros: Venue, Menu options, Friendly staff

Vegan Highlight of Lisbon

This is an absolute standout - fully vegan, beautifully designed and packed with flavor. We shared the cheese board to start (so good!), then had the Simone pasta and Steak au Paillard, both perfectly cooked and SO delicious. To finish, we shared the Peanut Chocolate Pie — rich, creamy, and totally Snickers-like. Hands down the best dinner we had in Lisbon. Definitely make a reservation, because this is one vegan spot you don’t want to miss.

Pros: creative menu, excellent food, beautiful interior, great atmosphere

“This is the best meal of my life.”

Trying not to be hyperbolic but I did say out loud that it was the best meal of my life as I dug into my main.

For starters, we got the Portuguese starter plate and it was a festival of flavours and delights! My partner likes fishy and eggy dishes more than me so she ate the two that fit that bill but I loved everything else.

For my main I got a dish with Rainy in the title (notas de chuva in Portuguese). It was tempeh on black rice and I’ve never had anything like it. There was coconut milk and an orange and it wouldn’t necessarily be something that sung to me but I took a risk and loved every bite. My partner got the Francesinha which was a seitan sandwich drenched in a savoury red sauce with an “egg” on top. Was it It was rich and smoky, she didn’t love it but mostly because she overstuffed herself on the appetizer and nothing is appealing when you’re that full.

For dessert we ordered the peanut butter chocolate pie (I ate 99.8% of it) and it was more salty than sweet which was actually appreciated. We love sweets but the meal was so filling that a rich, sweet dessert would have been too much.

The ambiance and staff here were exceptional. This restaurant was a highlight of our trip to Lisbon. I wish we’d gone with bigger appetites!

Pros: Creative, delicious food, Ambiance and vibe, Huge portions

Gutes pflanzliches portugiesisches Essen

Wir kamen hierher um portugiesische Spezialitäten in vegan zu essen. Als Vorspeise hatten wir die Käseplatte, dann Franceshina und Islander und als Nachspeise noch die Golden Soup. Alles war sehr lecker. Service war auch freundlich.
Ich finde es allerdings etwas laut, wenn viele Gäste da sind. Vielleicht sollten an der Decke ein paar Paneele installiert werden damit es nicht so laut ist. Die Bedingungen sprechen etwas leise und durch den Lärm hört man sie dann nicht richtig.
Großer Minuspunkt für uns war der Geruch nach altem Urin auf der Toilette, insbesondere auf der Damentoilette. Bei solch einem gehobenen Restaurant erwarte ich Toiletten die nicht riechen, also ordentlich gereinigt sind oder das wenigstens etwas in der Toilette steht das der penetrante Geruch überdeckt wird. Es ist auch etwas eng.

Pros: Aufmerksamer, netter Service , Lecker und schön angerichtet

Cons: Toilettengeruch, Laut

Un repas exceptionnel

Nous sommes venu-es manger un soir en semaine sans réservation.
L'expérience a été parfaite du début à la fin. Même si le lieu paraît un peu "guindé", l'ambiance est très agréable et on se sent bien. Les différentes serveuses étaient toutes très agréables et discrètes ce qui a transformé notre repas en petite bulle.
Que ce soit les entrées à partager, les plats ou les desserts tout était très bon et très finement préparé. Mention spéciale à la cuisson du chou, un délice.
J'ai adoré ma soirée.

Pros: Cuisson des légumes, Portions très généreuses, Ambiance du lieu très agréable

Délicieux

Dans un cadre très chic et agréable, on a beaucoup apprécié le moment. Pendant que l'on mange, on voit une ouverture vers la cuisine et c'est très agréable. Le service est impeccable. C'est vraiment délicieux de l'entrée jusqu'au dessert ! C'est très fins et avec beaucoup de saveurs, j'ai adoré ! Je recommande vivement pour ceux qui veulent goûter des plats portugais en version vegan. Le jeu des textures et des goûts est vraiment très satisfaisant. Nous avons payé 74€ a deux avec entrées/plats/desserts et deux verres de vins.

Comida muy buena

Nos encantó la comida, sobre todo la francesinha.

La atención al cliente fue profesional y con distinción, pero cometieron una falta de respeto importante, al dar a probar el vino que elegimos, ya que solamente se lo dieron de probar al hombre y no a la mujer. Pensamos que este tipo de actitudes no pueden ocurrir en lugares veganos, y que la eliminación de la discriminación debería ser total.
