  I've been to Ao26 a few times, it's one of the best vegan spots in Lisbon. They specialize in portuguese-inspired dishes, it's impressive how they can re-create fish and meat textures/flavors by using 100% plant based ingredients. Any meat eater would be fully satisfied by having a vegan meal here. One complaint: I HATE rocket salad, and the menu doesn't say whether or not it's part of the dish, I wish they could fix this.

  Visited twice during our stay in Lisbon, the food was a refreshing experience and the best overall dining memory of Lisbon. It was great having some classic Portuguese tastes made vegan , with the right textures and seasoning.

  The food was very good. Tasty takes on seafood and other dishes. I had the ravioli which I really liked. We had the melancholic sardines and portugese tradicional starter board for appetizers, which were very tasty. Most dishes are small portions but some are fairly rich. Atmosphere was nice for a fancier dinner.

  After reading reviews and being recommended this restaurant, we had high hopes! Food wise - we enjoyed the food. The soup was absolutely delicious. The ravioli was good, and the tofu fish dish was decent. The desserts were delicious, but very rich! But I would say the prices are a bit too high for the food, also being in Lisbon. Overall, I would recommend trying the food for a new experience, especially as a lot of it is experimental The main area where we felt we were let down was the front of house service. The lady that was at the front desk was extremely impolite and unfriendly. We definitely felt like we were imposing / almost like we were not deserving to be there! Once we sat down it took a very long time to get served, and we had to ask the same lady to ask for a waiter. When doing so, she was also unfriendly, as if we shouldn’t be asking for something. Aside from this, we were served by a couple of different waiters / waitresses who were really helpful, friendly and lovely for the rest of the time. Which is why my overall rating is 4*.

  AO26 was recommended to me by a friend prior to our trip to Lisbon. We were stoked that upon checking Google Maps, our hotel was directly next door to this vegan epicurean establishment. We had the luxury of eating here twice & sampled entrees, appetizers, non-alcoholic drinks & deserts from across the menu & every one of them were a swing & a big hit. The dishes here are well thought out, the flavors & textures compiled with care. There is a Portuguese cuisine flair to the menu which we loved & we went particularly wild over the vegan cheese board, which I cannot recommend enough. Each time we dined here we had courteous & kind waitstaff. Ambiance was everything we love about eateries & the open kitchen, dining room & bar area established a lively flow throughout the room. If you’re looking for vegan dining in Lisbon, this is where to start.
