    Not a frendly place. You cant seat there and decided if you want to eat there or not. They will kick you out of the chairs even if you are a senior, whitout even bring you the menu. I was there with my husband, at the 8 of november 2022 and while I went to the restroom he was siting in a chair, outside the restaurant,and an old lady came more then one time to ask him to get out. My husband cant see very well and he said he has to wait for me. I came back and we move to an outside patio that we toutch belong to the mall and she kick us out again. We went out and decided we do not want to by anything else at this Auchant supermarket or go back to this food cort with such unpolite people. As you can see at the picture the table we where is outside at the patio. Stay way of this place.

    The food is tasteless, but the service at least is open to change the plate. I don’t recommend this place for a nice vegan meal.

    I had lunch here when I visited Cascais. The atmosphere is super calm and nice and the waiters are super friendly. The food was delicious and the dessert too. The price is accessible.

    I had two fantastic meals here when they first opened a few months ago, so when I returned today I expected the same great quality. Sadly it was not to be. They’ve changed the menu, and the food is now substandard and extremely overpriced. I ordered a risotto with mushrooms which was made with “carolino” rice instead of the arborio rice that is the centerpiece of a risotto. They then fried up some plain mushrooms and stirred it into the rice. No herbs except for a sprinkle of garnish. No garlic, no onions, no salt, no pepper, nothing at all to add flavour. It was incredibly bland and came with roasted chestnuts on top that were so overcooked that I struggled to chew through one. The worst is that they wanted almost €12 for this dish, which at cost couldn’t be more than €1,50. (I say this having been a head chef in a restaurant some years ago and understanding how costing works.) That’s a massive mark-up and a complete rip-off. My son had a burger that was also almost inedible. The chips, bread and so on were good, but the patty (a Beyond Meat knock-off) had an incredibly strange taste and aftertaste. It was also €14 (because you need to order the chips as an extra - it’s not included). At that price, I don’t understand why they don’t use a better product, like Beyond Meat or similar. What upsets me most about this however, is that vegan food is not yet well accepted and restaurants like this will never convince meat eaters to reduce their consumption to help the environment. Quite the opposite. People are likely to walk away from this type of experience thinking that vegan food is not worth it because it’s overpriced and not tasty. It’s likely to discourage them from trying it again. Shame on them! I’ll never set foot in there again.

    We sat down and we were told all tables and chairs are reserved for paying customers. She came with no menu, ordered us to go. We walked to a table outside in the common patio area, she followed us and told us to leave! We are seniors and I am blind. We were treated terribly and do not recommend this establishment

    Awesome vegetarian restaurant that offers a menu during the week for 12 Euros. You can choose from 3 different starters, 5-6 different main courses and 3 drink options. Food was really good and filling, definitely a recommendation!

    Budget friendly lunch meal deal with some really really tasty food. Try the baked tofu and smashed new potato dish: it’s 10x tastier than it sounds on the menu. We also had the Katsu and linguine, both great. A few issues with their card payment machine but staff were very helpful and friendly with this; especially as we aren’t Portuguese.

    9€ Policy fee for bringing a Birthday Cake ! It was a very bad experience. Mostly due to the policies of the venue... It was for a birthday dinner for which we brought a family traditional birthday cake. Surprisingly the venue's policies is to charge 9€ for us to have the cake at the end !! 9€ ! Obviously we did not accept and decided that after the main course we ate it home. I'll get to that later. I found generally all quite expensive for the quantities served. In case you have a good appetite you'll feel still hungry. Regarding the Starters, the Spring Rolls (4 small per plate) were acceptable in taste nothing very special, Dumplings (4 tiny ones) fried the mayo kinda save them. Wraps were good and interesting. Main courses, Linguine pasta safe and simple choice for non-adventurers suitable for a non-vegan scared of trying new things. Burgers if you do not pay extra for the fries get ready to have find a poor and abandoned burger (taste acceptable) in the middle of a plate. "Ribs" is interesting and tasty (you'll have to ignore the diet, it is a plate composed only with carbs with a tiny bush) The "fish" (tofu bio) was perhaps, from the orders the only plate that deserves a good appraisal, which wins in presentation, flavour and almost in quantity, with a little salad it would have won it all. To conclude there is a nice potential if they focus more on the customer experience and less on the blind trigger of selling. Restaurant business is a service that should be based on the satisfaction of the customer. Happy customers will ultimately spend more and refer more by coming back and bring more customers. In this case the first impression, with the cake policy, ruined the experience even before we got to seat. Both lost in this process. We lost for not being able to enjoy the birthday tradition in that place and the venue lost once we did not order any desserts (despite the birthday cake we were still curious about the dessert menu) and obviously none of us had coffee, so I'd say all together would have been more than the 9€... We just did not turn back because we were still curious and it allowed to conclude the experience and have a complete opinion and I a complete experience for a review.

    Spoiled for choice with a full vegan menu! Food was delicious and located above a big supermarket that also sells lots of vegan products.

    Good vegan food, little room for improvement. "Sem Espinhas à Lagareiro", had to much oil to the dish couldn't taste the freshness of the potatoes..

    This restaurant has such an amazing variety of dishes with beautiful flavours and presentation. I love coming here, the service and environment are very nice and I always leave satisfied with the food and overall experience.

  • 5/5 Luís da S. 1 year ago on Google
    Very pleasant location despite the first reaction being possibly negative about it being on the first floor of the new Auchan centro comercial. Access out to the gardens with views to the sea. The food was very good and a variety of tastes. Meat lovers will not feel they have been short-changed. Generous mains portions, and some of the dishes such as the curry and the Buddha bowl were filling. Starters were very tasty as was the pumpkin cheesecake. Shout-out to the non-alcoholic coconut and mint mocktail...incredibly smooth and light

    Good location and cozy spaces. I have been to this reaturant in Lisbon and was happy that it has opened in Cascais. The spinach crochet was very good. Unfortunately our order, Winter Bowl was not for me. We were excited to have it with pistachio but we couldn't find it in our bowls and most of sweet potatos were very hard. Also the rice was dry. I liked this restaurant in Lisbon so, I hope it will be improved to come back.

    Tried the Future Farm burgers, and they were both really good. Would eat there again. Service was excellent. Price was reasonable.

😐 So, firstly, the food here was very good! The starters were very tasty and huge portions (so beware unless you're really hungry), and the pizzas we had were delicious. And if you have a table by the window facing the sea, the view is lovely. However... overall experience was soured by poor service....

👍👍 Perfection. Spider crab was very well cooked, and was cut and set to eat with least effort. Steamed octopus was so tender and seafood rice had rich taste. And all the foods went so well with green wine. Wish I could visit again.
