Excellent

Found this on Happy Cow and we were delighted with the interesting menu.
Food was beautifully presented, fresh and delicious.
It is always such a joy to find an excellent all vegan restaurant when travelling.
The waitress gave us a list of other vegan places in Lisbon and of course one of them was AO 26 which has same owners as Ortea.
I would highly recommend this restaurant.

Pros: Well situated.

Blown Away By The Vegan Food

Went for lunch and would have given ten stars it was that good. Amazing creativity and talent in the kitchen ...the food and service was amazing...It's rare to find an all vegan restaurant which also happens to be gluten free and everything made on site. Absolutely amazing I'm back in Lisbon next year and can't wait to revisit.

Excellent original food

Fed up of vegan burgers/lasagne/seitan that is served at so many vegan restaurants? This is for you. So many original dishes that were full of flavour. The only criticism is the names of the dishes are ridiculous, I had a “Sediment” and you could order a “Berlin” as well as” In Everything There is Beauty”.

Fantastic vegan food + lovely ambience!

We are fortunate that we live in Lisbon and this is one of our favorite restaurants in Lisbon. The food is always creative, fresh and delicious. We've been there more times than I'd like to admit and every time, the food has been spot on. We love the aesthetic of the spot too with so much greenery and plants. It's really lovely. Don't forget to meander upstairs to Pistacio to see their vegan offerings.

Pros: Delicious food with seasonal menus, Friendly staff with cool vibe, Beautiful and aesthetically pleasing

Cons: If you sit outside, you might be near a smoker

Food is awesome, service not so much

Loved this place so much after the first time that I went that I went again the next day. However, the second time the service was very poor. I asked for a glass of water and they never brought it to me. I also waited over an hour for my second course to come, and when I finally asked the waiter, he said he wasn't sure if I actually ordered it or not...?? Service aside, the food is beautiful and tasty. So many gluten free options!! Nice outdoor seating area.

Exceptional

We had an outstanding meal here. The place was full so make sure to book ahead. Really unusual flavour combinations, knowledgable staff, and excellent cocktails (by the glass or jug!) The decor is fabulous, with lots of plants and green walls. It feels relaxed yet upmarket. A real treat.

Pros: Unusual flavours , Ambience , Great staff

Beautiful, tasty, but new menu not as good.

August 2022 review
Sadly the menu changed, with our favourite dishes removed, I found it hard finding anything appealing on the new menu. The dishes are beautifully presented and the ingredients fresh and tasty, but the portion sizes are small, the quantity of plant protein is lacking, and I left feeling somewhat hungry and unsatisfied.

May 2022 review
Our first time to Orteá and very impressed! The food and drinks were fresh and scrumptious with plenty of creativity and love. The 'Rawoltini' raw dish was particularly impressive, and the Pad Thai was equally yummy. A great place for all food lovers!

Amazing place

Wow what an amazing food experience. Delicious food, most dishes also gluten free, vegan fine cuisine at its best, with a ton of attention to details, bot in flavour and plating. They also have a mini botanical garden with tens of plants (100 maybe?) including a great mini cactus collection.

Pros: Lots of creative dishes, Clearly marked gluten , All marked with gluten can be made GF!!

Beautifully presented

They pay attention to the presentation of the plates, so they're beautiful to look at and they flavour is very good too.

They've improved the menu since last year and the mushroom main I tried today and the chai latte were outstanding.
