Bom conserto, jeito único de comer, boa conversa, zona mágica. A comida estava simplesmente ótima!
We ate here for dinner and it was one of the best meals of our trip. Arriving when the restaurant opened, they were not quite prepared for us inside, so we sat on the steps until we could be seated. We started with a carafe of fresh red sangria and the Appetizer Set. Because they had no DIP, we were allowed to double up on the Caprese and that was by far the best thing in the set. If possible, I would recommend ordering nothing but the Caprese! it's THAT good! After the appetizer, we proceeded with the tasting menu. It was a lot of food and it was great to be able to try a lot of things on the regular menu, but in smaller portions. Some were winners and some we could have skipped, but we were able to try them, regardless. It was also fascinating to watch the kitchen in action. For being such a small space and with so many diners (the place got packed), the chefs did an excellent job keeping up with service. I would highly recommend a visit and if nothing else, ORDER THE CAPRESE!!!
The place has a very nice atmosphere, you can have starters outside at the stairs. The food is good, all options I tried were nice. A must-go place in Lisbon
Kleines etwas versteckt gelegen, aber auf jeden Fall einen Umweg wert. Die Karte ist klein aber abwechslungsreich und fantasievoll. Der food temple bietet eine einzigartige Umgebung mit Sitzplätzen auf einer grossen Treppe im Aussenbereich vor dem Restaurant. Die Gerichte sind liebevoll gestaltet und ein Genuss. Das Personal ist sehr freundlich, hilfsbereit und aufmerksam.
The food was tasty, creative and the atmosphere outside was great. You must book the tasting menu ahead, however if you miss out, the menu to choose from is great regardless and the plate sizes are small enough that you can choose a few different things to try.
It's been a few years since I've last eaten here and it is amazing as ever. The combination of ingredients and flavour still amazes me. Truly recommend! Updated from previous review on 2025-07-05
During our stay we went to a few vegan places - all food excellent but this was my favourite by far. The menu changes, but we ate: Croquettes, filo pastry parcels in a dreamy broth, and pea risotto. We sat outside on the steps and ate a sweet little table.
We opted for the 8 course taster menu. Everything that came out was nice or fine but there wasn’t anything that made it stand out as amazing. I really wanted to love this but I only liked all the courses. It probably is worth the price but maybe my own expectations were too high. Staff were lovely and accommodating. Venue is nice but slightly out the way.
The place has a great vibe, as the staff. Some dishes are great, others are ok. But it's super worth it to visit, sit outside and enjoy a good wine with some finger foods. It's possible to taste various dishes Updated from previous review on 2025-05-08
More of that kind of restaurants must appear every where in the world. Updated from previous review on 2025-05-05

Had the 8-piece tasting menu for €30. Super friendly staff and wonderful vibe.
really lovely staff, we didn’t make a reservation and just turned up but they managed to squeeze us in, explaining that they did have a small kitchen and as they were super busy that night things might be slower The seating outside on the steps was wonderful as it was a lovely evening, and we were walked through how they worked by a really lovely server got our smaller plates first which were very tasty, if slightly small The risotto i ordered did take a while to arrive, maybe 30 or so minutes after our first things had arrived but that had been explained before the brownie was the highlight! as a gluten free vegan i always get excited when i can actually eat dessert and this was a very delightful change
When visiting Lisbon we were recommended this place by our non-vegan host. Good job we reserved a table as it is small but it’s also worth it! We had their 30 euro taste menu experience which was so good and felt good value for money.
Small, cozy place for a chilled and enjoyable evening. Updated from previous review on 2025-04-16
What a gorgeous little place, fantastic bunch of chefs and wait staff and a lovely setting. We ate inside which was fab but the tapas on the steps looked so sweet too. Would definitely go again. Food was delicious!! Updated from previous review on 2025-04-10
