Few options, but good food

there are just a couple of vegan options, but they’re really good. I had the tofu on a spicy sauce with kelp and sea lettuce sides. pretty delicious.
price is kinda high, though.
important: servers don’t speak portuguese. and the place is hidden on a patio on the inside of a building. check for signs so that you don’t get lost.

Pros: delicious food

Cons: few options , no portuguese

Delicious! Best tofu and noodle soup!

Been here several times and the food is always consistently fantastic! So far I've tried both tofu dishes, the spicy noodle soup (ask without egg for vegan) and noodles. All fresh tasting and packed full of flavour! Even the plain rice is yummy!

Staff are always very welcoming and sweet. Please note that not all staff speak English and watch out for their sign outside as this place can be tricky to find.

Pros: Best tofu dishes I've ever eaten!, Reasonably priced, Kind staff

Cons: A bit difficult to find

Fantastic

Spicy noodle soup without the egg. Amazing broth and noodles, very filling and great price too. My partner had the meat ramen option and said it was fantastic - as well as the pork dumplings. Very full! Ready for a long walk along the Lisbon streets home x

Spicy vegan ramen - a cure for all evils

Orient taste is probably the tastiest Chinese restaurant in Lisbon. By far.

Their use of spices, combination of textures, and variety of ingredients takes the culinary experience to another level. This is reiterated by the fact that the place is mostly frequented by Chinese and their reviews are always excelent.

They have several vegetarian dishes clearly marked on the menu - those with an option "without egg" are suitable for vegans. They understand vegan and will be happy to explain the available options - so better to confirm each time.

The vegan dishes may be rice, with tofu and veggies, noodles/ramen with veggies, etc.

Their vegan ramen is absolutely delicious and I reckon it may have the power to heal any body or soul ailment.

Amazing Noodles and Cheap Menu

At this point in time (26/06/2018) I think they only have two vegan options - mapo tofu and spicy noodles - which you can buy as part of a menu (main dish + soup of the day + side dish + coffee = totals 8.90).
ATTENTION: We were told that the available soup of the day was "baby shroom soup" - however, once it arrived, we discovered the staff hadn't correctly translated the word "shrimp" (instead of shroom), which was a shame since we're vegan. So be careful/ask the staff to be more specific when choosing your "soup of the day".
REGARDLESS, the staff is amazingly sweet, so is the spot, and these were probably the best noodles we've ever had (?!).

EDIT: Went back a second time and asked staff if they could serve a vegan version of their "soup with baby shrimps". They did! And it was SO good - so I'm giving this place an extra star.

Pros: Price-Quality Relation, Place, Staff

Cons: Badly translated items (which aren't vegan)
