I was really looking forward to eating here! Sadly they had a few things missing from the menu and they never told us beforehand! The cheese plate and the veggie stew were both missing, which is what my parents were going for! They chose the risotto in the end, but somehow they only made one so they asked them to share until they made the other one (20-30 mins more, we were all finished by then). Didn't offer anything to compensate for the mistake. On top of that, you also couldn't really taste the butternut squash in the risotto.The wait time was also really long, over an hour. Hence, I will rate the service as disappointing, however the food was really cook especially their fake fish (tofu)! It's wrapped in multiple layers of seaweed and tastes lovely and healthy! Would've been nice to have a brown rice option though! We also ordered croquettes with vegan cashew cheese, which were amazing, my dad (big meat eater) absolutely loved them! Atmosphere was nice with candles in the toilet and small lights around the room, however, we found there was not plenty of space between the tables. Also outdoor seating would've been nice, but the location doesn't allow for that. Overall good place, but disappointed about the service.

Great vegan restaurant with lots of traditional Portuguese dishes in a vegan version. Highly recommended, you might have to make reservation beforehand. Their banoffee dessert was exquisite! Also, definitely order the orange juice from the algarvian oranges. It was so sweet! The place is very cozy and the staff really friendly. All in all a great experience.

Amazing vegan Portuguese cuisine. So delicious and correct prices. Highly recommend the Francesinha with the vegan egg. A must-go when in Faro ?

We always enjoy our meals here. Small restaurant with great food. Make sure you make a reservation since it’s a bit smaller inside. They make everything fresh when you order, so it can be a bit of a wait but totally worth it. We always get whatever mushroom appetizer they have, and it’s our favorite part of every meal.The pumpkin mushroom risotto is good. The vegan fish soup was okay, but the risotto really over shined it. I generally prefer vegan dishes that aren’t remakes of non vegan food, but this restaurant does a really nice job of making traditional Portuguese dishes (which are usually animal based) vegan.So if you would like to try traditional Portuguese dishes done vegan this is the place to go!They have great wine recommendations as well. We like to get a bit of a nicer bottle when we go out, so we usually pick one in the 20-25€ range. The bottle pictured here was really nice, not acidic tasting, and a really nice aroma.

Best vegan restaurant I’ve ever eaten in.Delicious food and very friendly service.Sit, ask for a Portuguese organic wine, savour it while listening to the jazzy vibes in background, the best is yet to come, an amazing vegan dish prepared with love and full of flavour. Enjoy the moment!

We were greeted by a very polite waitress who proceeded to show us to our seats and accomodated for us for a seat change. The service was impeccable, granted there were only two staff on the floor attending to the entire restaurant which was impressive. The bathroom area was also very clean and well equipped.On the food's arrival, the items looked appealing and the presentation was delightful. However, the majority of the food lacked flavours and was overly-salted. The mains were terrible and all 3 of our dishes were unfortunately not to our liking. The 'Francesina' was one of the most dissappointing dishes I have had in a while- it's essence was that of soggy bread dipped in canned tomato soup. The 'typical Seitan shank' was overly salted with no flavour. I hasten to add that the best part of the meal was the starter of 'Alheira balls stuffed'- I would strongly recommend these. The waitress was kind enough to constantly ask if we were satisfied with our meal and my compliments go out to them. This restaurant has huge potential, however the dishes need to be re-evaluated.

Best vegan Restaurant in Faro! The flavours are amazing. I tried several appetizers and my favourite were the alheira balls. I also really enjoyed their tofu fish, the cheesecake and the white sangria!! People working there are very friendly. Must visit when in Faro!

The spot is really cute and all the food is excellent, omnivore-approved! I love that they offer vegan versions of traditional Portuguese dishes. The staff is also super friendly and careful. A great experience that I would recommend to anyone!
What a cute little vegan restaurant. The atmosphere here is very pleasant; loved the decoration and the waitress was very kind. It's amazing to be able to taste portuguese dishes in a vegan variant. The food was delicious so I would highly recommend going here when you are in Faro. I was lucky to have a table so making a reservation might be recommended. Positive vibes, good vegan food and warm and charming staff in a cozy restaurant. Loved it!

We had a lovely Dinner at Outro Lado. The food was very good with excellent "fish" stew and white wine. Everything was freshly prepared and lovingly arranged. All topped of with wonderfully friendly and attentive service.

Really cute vegan restaurant! The atmosphere is very welcoming and the team is extremely friendly. They offer super interesting meals with a vegan twist and the food not only looks amazing but also tastes very good.Due to circumstances we had to leave mid meal and they were super kind and packed everything and even made sure we had cutlery.I can definitely recommend- not only for vegans but for everyone.

Outro Lado is a great little spot. We booked online and managed to get a table for 4 on a Saturday night. The place is run by a husband and wife, with the husband taking care of things in the front and house and his More
