Taverna do Marisco l Restaurante — Restaurant in Lisbon

First the good things: the space is nice, fun music playlist and the service was good, our server was very attentive and kind. We were quite disappointed about the food. I really wanted to like it but the quality was lacking. We knew the restaurant from before the pandemic and it's not the same. The price is very high for the quality of the food that was served. It wasn't bad, just underwhelming for the prices and if you compare to other vegan restaurants, I believe the dosa and other Indian dishes might still be pretty good but we wanted to try different things. For starter we had nachos and tacos and they were both underwhelming. The fried "prawns" were good, probably the best of the meal but very expensive. Then we had ramen and I was not impressed, the broth had a strange flavour profile, the vegetables didn't feel fresh. The tofu did save it as it was well prepared. For desert I had Tiramisu and it had such potential but it tasted like it had been in the fridge...

This vegan restaurant is an absolute gem! We had dinner here and tried the medu vada, giant ramen, and tacos—every dish was an explosion of flavors and beautifully crafted. The medu vada was perfectly crispy and spiced just right, the ramen was rich and hearty with a depth of flavor that made it unforgettable, and the tacos were fresh, vibrant, and incredibly satisfying.

What truly made the experience exceptional was the service. The staff was welcoming, attentive, and genuinely passionate about the food they serve. They took the time to explain the dishes, checked in regularly to ensure everything was perfect, and made us feel right at home. We were so impressed that we came back the next day for lunch, and the experience was just as phenomenal. This place is a must-visit for anyone who loves creative and delicious vegan food paired with outstanding service....

I was initially drawn to this location given the high review this restaurant had. Unfortunately, I was disappointed with the food and service. The food wasn't that great, but not the worst. My partner and I were quite annoyed of the service. The waiters kept repeating what they suggested, which was the two person seafood meal. We kindly declined since we both wanted our own meals to try. They repeatedly asked if we wanted bread and olives with our meal, which we kept declining knowing they would charge us for it. We just got so annoyed and just wanted to get out of there. It was our last day in Portugual too, thinking we could enjoy classic Portuguese food but we did not get that here. I wouldn't recommend this restaurant, there are many other options in the city with delicious meals and...
