Comida reconfortante 💚

Espaço acolhedor, com um atendimento super atencioso.
Fui sem expectativas e sai de lá rendida!
Não sendo a maior fã de hambúrgueres decidi arriscar no Sloppy Xéxas pela curiosidade do conceito sloppy burger. Estava simplesmente divinal! A opção de poder ter acompanhamento metade de cada opção também me agradou bastante.
Já não fui a tempo de tirar foto à sobremesa porque mergulhei logo num bolo do copo que mesmo já estando cheia do prato principal, foi até à última migalha de tão bom que estava!
Definitivamente é um espaço para voltar a visitar 💚

Pros: Qualidade da comida, Atendimento atencioso e dedicado

Lovely cafe with amazing desserts

Called in for lunch with my son. The staff were friendly and welcoming.
We both had the risotto of the day, which was mushroom and leek, which was delicious, flavoursome and creamy.
We then decided to have a dessert. We were shown three different dessets, a pisachio cheesecake, a snickers dessert and I think the third iption was a chocolate cake with pineapple. Both desserts were incredible, particularly the cheesecake.
Really loved the whole meal. Would definitely recommend. As with many smaller establishments in Portugal, this place is cash only.

Delicious and fresh food with cake options.

I had the gyros and my two friends had the bread and pate and the macaroni cheese. All 3 dishes were flavourful and well presented. Will be visiting multiple times during my stay.

Hidden gem

I’ve eaten here at least 3 times now, the food is great and the ingredients used are always fresh. The staff is lovely, and the only reason I won’t give it 5 ⭐️ is because of the quantity/price relation.

Be mindful that it’s a really tiny space, so if you want to play it safe better make a reservation.

Pros: All vegan menu, Fresh ingredients , Staff

Cons: Price, Quantity, Small place

Delicious choice in Costa da Caparica

This restaurant is super cute and delicious. The only reason I didn't give them 5 stars is because I feel it's a bit expensive for what you get. The food is great though and I'm so happy that there are vegan choices in Costa da Caparica!

Pros: Cute restaurant, Delicious food

Cons: A bit expensive

A minha escolha n°1 da margem sul. Fazem o que gostam para nos servir e isso nota-se a comer. A comida é espetacular.

Unique vegan restaurant 🌟

I like that this place has different options from the typical vegan restaurant and includes typical portuguese dishes! Do check their website/socials for the monthly special menu bc they add fun stuff. Both times i came here i left sooo so full so take that into consideration 🤭
Bifana - ok, too much sweet sauce, i dont rly recommend! And its not similar to the original portuguese version either
Soup - DELICIOUS, HEARTWARMING, COZY
Mac n cheese - tastyyy , my non vegan mom rly like it! But its just a limited edition
Francesinha - WOW it was amazing and id say it tastes pretty authentical to the typical version. Limited edition tho
I dont really like the desserts here but the cakes for catering are top notch if you have interest
Really nice and friendly staff!

Incredible vegan food in a cute beach town

The food was amazing! They veganized a Portuguese dish that originally has white fish and eggs - their version was mouthwateringly good. Also shared the yakisoba which was less sweet than normal, but it was intentional and also delicious. Would return in a second! CASH ONLY

Pros: Insanely good food

Cons: Cash only

Super delicious

Nice place, friendly staff and extremely tasty food!! But, either the price is a bit too much or the portions a bit too small. They use a lot of local and organic ingredients, so it's okay that it is a little expensive, but compared to other places to eat nearby it is just a bit too expensive.

Pros: Amazingly tasty food made with good ingredients, Super friendly, knowledgeable and caring staff, Nice location

Cons: A bit expensive/ small portions

good, but was expecting more!!

we were very pleased with the starters (we asked for the pita bread with mushroom and smoked eggplant pâtés) and the main dishes (their seitan burger and and mushrooms à bulhão pato), they were very savoury but, for what we paid, we think they could serve them better!! for dessert, we were so so excited to have the chocolate and pistachio buttercream cake but were kind of disappointed: not only we thought 5€ for each slice was a bit of an exaggeration, the cake was way too sweet, overpowering any flavour that could be left😒but overall, the food is super tasty and the spot is super nice, we sat in the outside area and it was very chill. the staff is also super super friendly and the service is very quick😄

Lovely little space

Unfortunately, I had only room for desert 😱 I may have to come back!

I spent 2 days in Caparica and managed to go to all three vegan restaurants. I think they all deserve a visit. Xexexe is closest to „fine dining“, bone free is best if you want to sit outside as they have the nicest terrasse (especially for a larger group, they all have at least two tables outside). And Mr. Vegan has the most reasonable prices and seems to be a family run restaurant.

The Worst place to eat

The worst place to eat. Food tastes horrible and it's expensive. I have been vegan for almost 6 years now and went to a lot of restaurants and I can say this one is bad representation of veganism.

O pior sítio para comer. A comida é horrível e cara. Sou vegan há aproximadamente 6 anos e já fui a vários restaurantes e este é uma má representação do veganismo.

Same here. Soup of the day is ok. Main dishes are quite plain + overpriced

Needs to work on the ingredients ratio

The quality of the food is not bad at all and the staff is super nice! The space itself is cosy and because it’s 100% vegan you have loads of options! In our particular experience, from the starters to the desert we’ve felt some adjustments could be made. We asked for the olive and mushroom dip with bread first. It didn’t taste bad but it was a bit bland, the mushroom dip had an overpowering flavour of garlic. Then we asked for burgers: the patty itself, bread coated mushroom was quite good but the mayo…had a lot of mustard in it and you feel that kick like when you eat wasabi, it climbs up your nose and you can’t distinguish any more flavours. It brought some side crisps, in my opinion it would work better with some potato wedges. For desert we asked for the caramel tart and the pistachio and chocolate cake. They were both overly sweet, we even felt a bit sick on our way home. All in all, it was just a matter of adjusting spices because other than that the food was good. I don’t know if we chose the wrong dishes on the wrong but we’re open to go back one day to give it another chance.

nettes kleines lokal mit extrem freundlichem koch und kellner! 🤗

- seitan sandwich als vorspeise (hervorragend, eignet sich gut für 2 personen)

- yakisoba (etwas sojasauce lastig aber mit kleinem salat dazu ausgezeichnet)

- weeks special, sehr gut aber ausbaufähig ☺️

die desserts haben wir „to go“ genommen, also leider kann ich dazu nichts näheres sagen außer das die auswahl groß ist und sie lecker aussehen 😋 aber seht selbst 😉

preis ist okay aber nicht „low budget“ 💰

alles in allem definitiv einen besuch wert!

Atendimento simpático

Para começar, fomos recebidos com muita simpatia e muitos sorrisos, o que torna o ambiente agradável. Infelizmente, todas as opções que pedimos não estavam ao nosso agrado, o feijão parecia diretamente da lata, sem tempero algum, o tofu tinha um sabor estranho, a lasanha tinha camadas enormes de massas e não estava no ponto.
A sensação é de estar em casa (o que não é mal), mas sugiro continuarem com o conceito familiar, acrescentando mais profissionalismo e mais critérios na cozinha.
