This place was a huge highlight of our time in Lisbon! We had a meat eater and a person with celiacs who both enjoyed many of the dishes. Great and flavourful food! read more

A vegan, plant based buffet in Lisbon?! Now this is why Lisbon ranks so high in my top cities for vegans in the world. I visited Jardim das Cerejas on my final evening in town. I wasn't feeling super hungry so I opted to do a takeout box (€8) of their buffet food. The selection here was fantastic - many lentil/soy based protein options, a salad bar, rice and bread - really the perfect plant based meal where everything was tasty. My average rating really comes from my experience doing takeout. Maybe it's my American mentality, but when they handed me the takeout tray, I made sure to fill it up with as much food as possible (while not overloading). When I went to pay, the owner(?) scolded me and said it was now impossible to close and that I did not do this properly. I apologized and shared my embarrassment with them, but honestly - it was NOT that bad. I wasn't happy that they made a scene where everyone started staring as I continuously apologized and felt stern judgement. Finally, another staff member took over and closed the box for me and I paid and left. After sharing the photos with friends, nearly everyone concluded that it was not overfilled and definitely me just making the most of my limited space. Besides that experience, I still really appreciate them being available and would come back to do the actual sit down buffet so I can avoid this awkwardness again. read more

A few days into our visit of Lisbon, after a few hours of sightseeing, hunger persuaded us to pop into Jardim das Cerejas for a vegan buffet. It's a popular and very straightforward buffet: A host greeted us and directed us to a table, took our drink orders, and directed us the serve-yourself buffet. There were a good dozen-plus items to choose from: appetizers, mains, desserts. One plate was plenty for me; everything I chose hit-the-spot. The price was very reasonable, especially considering that I could've had another plate full. (Jay had two plates, and he's VERY wary of Indian food since contracting an illness in Mumbai years ago.) If you're on a tight budget, and like to eat, perhaps Jardim das Cerejas might just be up your alley.... read more

Checked this place out because it had good reviews and I was not disappointed! I'm vegetarian but the person with me was not and both of us thought it was one of the best places we ate at in Portugal. It's not a huge buffet but there are plenty of options and I believe most or all are homemade. We loaded our plates with a lot if unfamiliar food and enjoyed almost everything we tried. Definitely recommend checking this place out! read more

Jardim das Cerejas - Homenade soup. - Vegan Near Me - Lisbon, 11

This place offers a great deal on a healthy meal! I didn't really know what to expect. I'm not a vegan but I love eating healthy and eating vegan food. I was nearby and searching Yelp for a good place to eat. They open at 7:00pm for dinner. There is a large salad bar selection with lettuce, beets, carrots, onions, chickpeas, mushrooms etc. All very fresh. The hot selections are a variety of vegan dishes that change daily. There were a few rices, and 5 or 6 other hot dishes. The day I was there they had a veggie lasagna, cauliflower and broccoli in a coconut sauce, a bean dish, and a few other tasty things. It was Indian influenced flavors but nothing was spicy. The buffet is 9,50 at dinner. Highly recommend! read more

Vegan, copious, affordable, with divine desserts.... need I say more? If you're hungry and veggie, this is your go-to in Lisbon. They have a wide area of fresh veggies for salad making (arugula, chick peas, romaine, beets, carrots, etc.), and several warm Indian-inspired dishes. Definitely try their veggie "meat balls" -- they're so chewy and delicious. Plus you can order a freshly squeezed veggie juice to accompany your meal. If possible save room for dessert -- they have these mile high creamy whipped cakes that taste like tiramisus in different flavors. AMAZING. Try the the coconut one and the passion fruit. read more

As someone who doesn't care for seafood and also enjoys veggies,eating out as a tourist in Lisbon proved challenging. I'm not a vegetarian at all but was drawn to this place after 3 days of basically eating salads and french fries as my only plant based source of nutrition. I was greeted as soon as I walked in and shown the small but bountiful buffet. They had a choice of brown and turmeric basmati rice, two different kinds of sauced lentil dishes, a falafel covered in a white sauce dish, and a few other options as well as multiple cold veggies, cucumbers and the like. The lentil soup was so savory and earthy and well seasoned...nothing was overly spicy and I'm a spice wimp so this worked for me. I left with a full belly and at a price of under 11euros, the value here can't be beat. My only complaint was the temperature of the food was cooler than I would have liked read more

When we couldn't get the table at the nearby restaurant "Carmo" on Friday night at 10pm, we decided to take a chance and try this vegetarian restaurant. As carnivores, at first we were both skeptical of the vegetarian places like this but we were pleasantly surprised by the delicious buffet. It was not only a much needed healthy meal after weeks of meat and carb filled meals in Italy, but also the price was excellent. The all you can eat buffet was only €9.50. If you wanna eat healthy without sacrificing taste, this is a great option. read more

This place is great!!! Although I'm a meat lover and this place is vegetarian, you do not miss a thing!!! There are an abundant variety of flavours to choose from. Variety of starches and includes deep fried pakoras. Tons of sauces. Drink included. Dessert extra. read more

It is the best place for vegetarians. Unlimited food and reasonable prices. Highly recommend

You should absolutely go for it! Vegan or not but mostly if you are vegan 'cause you wont have to wonder it is vegan or not? junk food? questionable dressing? Forget it! Everything is fresh and constantly refilled as customers empty bowl and plates. They have cold dishes, multiple salads, a few hot dishes and not bathing in greasy dressing, yay ! There is also a soup available. Staff is super friendly It's an affordable buffet !! Atmosphere basic, laid back half touristy/half locals What else do you want ? If I lived in Lisbon, I would definitely be a regular eater! read more

Jardim das Cerejas - Vegan Near Me - Lisbon, 11

Food is lukewarm, and tastes like it has been sitting there for a while, plus it's a very bland no spice Indian food. Having been living in the Bay Area, I know a lot of restaurants that offer vegan options and spice their foods with Indian flavors well. Here, it really missed it. There's no label containing allergens. If you ask them for info on ingredients because if allergy to hemp, nuts, soy or gluten, they have no clue. It's an easy place to get sick for the celiac people. 3 stars because the staff is friendly and there are plenty of options to choose, plus you can repeat. Plus it's all vegan, so that's a major plus in Portugal. read more

For my first day in Lisbon, I can say it's a great start since I found this amazing vegan buffet where food is fresh and freaking delicious... The buffet is 9 euros and includes salad bar, different warn dishes and soup. I wish I could find this kind of restaurant in France... I would spend my life there. So satisfying! read more

This was such a delight to find a vegan buffet in Portugal. The food was so good and such a great price. It tasted gourmet. Everything was flavorful and delicious, and the people who worked there were so nice and attentive. I highly recommend this place. I ate there twice while I was in Lisbon. read more

After 3 weeks of enjoying traditional Portuguese seafood dishes - short on vegetables, my wife and I were craving a vegetarian meal. Jardim das Cerejas hits the spot. The buffet offering were varied and fresh. The chickpea crackers were traditional Indian style. The hot entrees were prepared very well. The salads were fresh. I would highly recommend Jardim das Cerejas for vegetarians visiting Lisboa who are seeking basic, well prepared, inexpensive meal. Prices are great. Euro 7.50 for lunch and 9.50 for dinner. Drinks and desserts extra. The entrees were satisfying and filling. We did not have room for dessert. read more

amazing food! this is the type of vegetarian food that make you wonder "why do i need meat again?" anyway but seriously i forgot it's even vegetarian for a moment. beside the food, service is really nice, ambiance is cozy and friendly. the only downside is the color of that wallpaper lol. buffet (7+for lunch and 9+for dinner) is awesome for travelers so we don't have to worry about what to eat. (although this is not authentic Portuguese food.....) read more

It was a typical August summer day: hot & humid, and we were tired, hungry, and thirsty. We'd been looking for a vegetarian restaurant for a while. Thank you Yelpers for leading us to this spot. We arrived at about 8pm ish and the place was packed!!! No seats available. 2 minutes later, 2 seats opened up. At first, service sucked! No one to get our drinks, no plates at the buffet table, no one to clean up the old plates from the previous group, etc. when we brought this to the attention of the staff, they were pretty quick in cleaning up and getting our drinks. And the food was amazing! For €9. I was mad we didn't discover this place sooner. It was worth it. Beer was less than €2, wine, anywhere from €2 -4. read more

Jardim das Cerejas - Some of the hot food from the buffet - Vegan Near Me - Lisbon, 11

A very tasty completely vegan buffet for €7,50. It's quite a good place to take some non-vegans as they will definitely be fooled by the great tasting lasagna and some other great tasting dishes. The staff is friendly but a bit slow. A great place for a tasty lunch on a budget but I wouldn't recommend it for a nice dinner as the atmosphere is very casual and the interior is nothing special. Pros: Great to take people who are usually not too into, Good price for the quality of food Cons: Staff is a bit slow read more

In the main tourist district of Lisbon, but definitely not a tourist trap. The food is very good quality and the prices are reasonable. The buffet has your traditional Indian fare with some Portuguese inspired dishes. The best of all is that everything is vegan. read more

Simple and delicious vegetarian. If this is what you're looking for in a place with ham and meat everywhere, this place is definitely for you. It's served buffet style with several salads. I had the chick pea salad, yellow rice and bean curry. read more

Great price for us vegans and vegetarians. O came here after it was recommended by a staff member at the hostel that I was staying on my first day. Imagine coming jetlag, your body confuse with the time zone, and tackling those hills in Chiado or Alfama... Go there, get fuled up and eat at your heart's content. Is healthy, good price and yummy food! read more

Loved this place. We stopped by after having a long day in Sintra, Portugal. It was on our way home. I didn't know how common vegan restaurants in Lisbon was until I googled it online. This place is awesome. All the food is vegan and the best part is that it's a buffet. For 10 euros (7 euros for lunch), you get all you can eat buffet. Totally awesome. Went back the second day to order a take out for lunch at home. Totally recommend this place. read more

Great vegan food . We had the buffet on a Saturday night . Great service . Fresh food .

I'm visiting from San Francisco Bay Area, California, US. The vegan and vegetarian food there is fantastic, so my standards are high and my expectations probably unrealistic. Though a couple of items like the mini pizza and the mango cake were good, the rest was mediocre at best and even quite disgusting at worst. The seitan balls was especially unpleasant. But I needed the protein so I ate it, begrudgingly. Then again, the seitan, and other meatless products in Lisbon are just disgusting in general. If I hadn't been a vegan for a while and my first impression of what vegan food could taste like would in effect be ruined by the vegan food in Lisbon thus far. To sum up: This food is ok, editable and not very hot. The service is good and the staff very friendly and helpful. The atmosphere minimal. I'd pass on it if you're looking for a tasty vegan meal. The price is very good though. I paid €9 for the buffet plus dessert. So if you just need to eat anything and are on a budget, this place is a good option. Or if you just want some vegan dessert this is also a good option. read more

Excellent all vegetarian option in Chiado. Food was fresh and flavorful for reasonable price . Didn't try desserts may be next visit there. Service is good too. read more

Was hesitant to try this place but after 2 days of being sick I decided to come here for a "detox" meal. The salad bar was quite unimpressive, with 2 dressings on the side, one that's creamy and another that's olive oil-based (it also doesn't taste like extra virgin to me), and the chickpeas and mushrooms tasted like they were out of cans. They also had small bites of potato gratin bread, veggie pizza and some round fried dough. None of those tastes good so I suggest you pass on them. The hot food bar had 5 dishes - chickpea curry, tofu stew with veggies, lasagna, some veggie patty thing and another seitan dish. 4 out of 5 tasted amazing. The brown rice was also moist and well cooked. I tried their papadum which is wonderfully crisp and well spiced with cumin seeds. I then ordered their cake and thoroughly enjoyed it - the waiter described it as a cookie cake with chocolate but it was more like a mousse cake with a hint of coffee and coconut. Definitely spend the extra 2 bucks on dessert. read more

Is a All you can eat so don't expect high service. Is more a kind of self service vegetarian. You spend less than 10$ and you eat no limits. Nice food, I enjoyed. My favorite was the soup. read more

Stopped by here to make a to-go box for lunch today. Great price (6.50 Euro) for a box of food! There was a nice salad bar selection with fresh veggies and mixed salads. I also liked hot foods bar selection, which included brown rice, black beans, lentils, roasted veggies, and some pasta dishes. Definitely got my money's worth! read more

Jardim das Cerejas - Take away box filled with the day's selections. Only 6.50 euros! - Vegan Near Me - Lisbon, 11

I absolutely love this place for vegetarian/vegan/dairy-free food. Everything on the menu (including the insane desserts) is vegan. The lunch buffet is all-you-can-eat and an absolute steal. There are so many options from salads, veg, and hot dishes. I am in Lisbon a lot and I always hit this place when I have had too many days of pure meat and need a little break. Staff is friendly, food is always fresh and delicious and the Baixa/Chiado location is super easy. read more

* Pretty good assortment of options for vegetarians * Staff are friendly * I suppose if you eat a lot it is well worth it read more

This place is quick, cheap, and just the thing you're looking for in some situations. It's essentially an all-you-can-eat Indian buffet. The dishes are mixed in their flavor and spice; nothing I had was overly bland, but nothing blew me away, either. But if you're hungry, need to load up on food, or just want to get seated and eating quickly (e.g., on a busy travel day, or when traveling with a small child), it's hard to beat. The buffet is fairly broad (salad, appetizers, mains, soups, ...). Plus the price is extremely reasonable. I can imagine that if you go at the wrong time you're eating something that's been sitting atop a heater for a long time, and that can get pretty awful. I may have been fortunate to go when food was being freshly prepared and brought out. Still, this place doesn't pretend to be fancy or have airs about being vegetarian. It's solid and unpretentious. That can be a relief to a veg traveler in Europe. The location is also great (though you may need a bit of help taking the right exit out of the Baixa-Chiado metro): central, well-connected, and close to public transit, all good things for a visitor. In some other European cities, this would be a 5*. In Lisbon, which now has several veg options, I'm giving it a 4*. Still, there's nothing wrong with it at all. Could easily see returning (and very nearly did). read more

I was pleasantly surprised at the quality and selection of foods at this buffet. From the photos and reviews, this place seemed a little hyped. This place fills up fast. A buffet plate per person is €9,50 and it's all you can eat. The food is all flavorful, hot, and There are good options for someone trying to stay healthy - plus, it is entirely vegan. A hot spot to try if you are starving for dinner but I still think the prices are a bit more than dirt cheap though. read more

Not a bad place you know if you are lonely and crave for good food. A bit dim and seems sketchy but the food is not bad and all
