Nothing too special - Edit
The food was fine, but quite boring for my taste. They serve vegan versions of traditional Portuguese food which was nice to try, but all over I would say it lacked some spirit.

Lovely vegan versions of Portuguese cuisine - Edit
This place was great and deserves the awesome rating it has. I’m only not giving it 5 stars because I didn’t fully love the dessert (I had the cheesecake), that although it was good in some of the bites I add a strong after taste of something like perfume (it threw me off a bit).
Read moreHaving said that the mains were great! We tried the burger which was really good and the Happy Octopus. This last dish deserves a medal because it was super good and it allow me to get to know the flavors of the Portuguese cuisine.

A unique chance for vegans to try local cuisine - Edit
I have been travelling to Portugal multiple times. As a vegan, I never had the chance to try local cuisine, which is fish and meat- heavy. Kong gave me the unique chance to try multiple local dishes. Portions are big, food is very tasty, prices are fair and service is very friendly. I recommend to book in advance, since the place is very popular. Recommended!

One of the best - Edit
Absolutely incredible vegan food. It was wonderful to be able to sample traditional Portuguese food that wouldn't usually be accessible as a vegan, like the Bitoque. I think this is a must visit for any vegan in Lisbon. I went twice it was so good!

Delicious and original dishes! - Edit
The spot is cute and the staff was friendly. All the food we had was really good, from starters to deserts. I appreciate them having some Portuguese-style dishes, so you can try something a bit more typical

Maybe my #1 place here - Edit
They get all the love! We was running late because of trouble getting a Uber, but he looked out for us and let us have a table for 1 hour. It was well worth it! By far the best we had here! That cheese cake though!!

Fabulous Cafe - Edit
We had the “octopus” which uses a king oyster mushroom that rests on a bed of incredibly seasoned garlicky greens and potatoes. The croquettes were also our favorite and the Japanese bowl with rice, tofu and other goodies - fantastic flavor. Their desserts are heavenly. We had the snickers pie and Nutella pie. Both were amazing.

Vegan extravaganza that left me a chunky monkey - Edit
Had a great time in Kong. First night staying in Lisbon and was looking for a vegan restaurant to quench my travel hunger.
Read moreKong's was a real treat! I had the vegan octopus - yum.
Only issue was the giant gorilla in the restaurant who placed a vegan curse on me for the rest of the trip - don't ask!
Pros: Yummy vegan octopus, Friendly service, Tasty beer
Cons: The statue of King Kong

Good but not outstanding - Edit
The food here is pretty good, but in my opinion it was not really very memorable. Honestly if you ask me, there is much better and more flavorful vegan food in Lisbon.
