Great Vegan Buffet - Edit
Da Terra appears to be a chain of vegetarian/vegan buffet restaurants across Porto. We went to this one and the one across the river in the market at Gaia riverside. There's also one near Sao Bento train station in the tourist area, but we didn't try that, just noticed when we walked past. We found the ones that we went to by chance. I don't know if there are others its really hard to find out on the internet. I've just looked and they do have a website and appear to do cookery classes, which I wish I'd known about whilst I was there I might have gone.
Read moreWe really enjoyed both of the ones that we tried, a really nice variety of hot and cold flavourful fresh dishes for 10.5 euros and you can go back and get more if you have favourite dishes. Both the ones we went to were fully vegan. Not sure if that's always the case because I get the impression the dishes vary every day.
I would definitely recommend and wish we had something like this in our home town

We ate here twice. Food was great, but it would be great if they have more options.

Good options - Edit
It’s great to have a place where you can east everything!
Read moreThe only issue I had was that this place is inside a food court, and they don’t let you eat outside of their tables for you to have the second serving. Very inconvenient when going with a large group and it kills the option of the variety of the food court for all.

Ok options - Edit
Some good options, everything was vegan when we visited. Mostly fresh food, a few hot options and lots of salads and cold options. The food was nice but nothing special, convenient if you’re in the area but not worth travelling for.
Read moreIn a food hall with lots of non vegan options, but has its own seating area that only permits veggie food to be consumed.

Disappointing - Edit
Went there for dinner and was pretty disappointed. The food was ok, mostly salads and also not very flavorful or imaginative generally. Not sure if the buffet changes daily, can’t really explain all these positive reviews otherwise.

Buffet not open all day! - Edit
We came here excited for the buffet at 16.30 only to find it closed. Since this info isn't displayed here, I wanted to note it - it's somewhat until 15.30 and again from 18.30. The only savoury thing we could order where burgers and sandwiches, and the difference was huge! The sandwich was amazing whereas the burger was quite disappointing with a cold, mushy bean patty, something you'd get 10 years ago.

Cons: Buffet makes a pause

Great food with great value - Edit
I regularly eat here when I come to Porto.
Read moreThis time it was just as good but I didn’t like some of the foods they had available.
It’s a buffet place in a market so, if you have problems with noise, I would not recommend it. However, if you are around, please eat here.
Today they had an AMAZING carrot cake covered in chocolate!
Pros: Food, Staff
Cons: Loud

Disappointing - Edit
Was excited to try this as it has gotten so many positive reviews but found it pretty disappointing.
Read moreThe food was mostly salads a few warm vegetable or fake meat dishes and not very imaginative/creative. I’ve been to lots of vegan places around Porto and loved them, this was unfortunately the worst.
I’ve been vegan over 10 years, the dishes here seemed like dishes a non-vegan imagines vegans to eat. Apart from 1 seitan dish, none of the dishes included any protein sources (no tofu, tempeh or even beans and nuts).
Was excited to try the drinks too but when mine arrived it was pretty much all lime so was too acidic to drink unless mixed with water.

Very average tasting food. - Edit
The food was fine, I was excited because it was all quite healthy and looked tasty (see photo) but it just didn’t taste of much. It was also super disappointing and disturbing to see that people from another food place had brought cheesy pizzas and meat filled sandwiches in and were allowed to sit there and eat them despite a note note on the tables stating they don’t allow animal products in the cafe. Regardless of the cheap price I wouldn’t go again.

Amazing vegan buffet - Edit
This vegetarian/vegan restaurant chain is amazing! They have two stores in Porto, one on each side of the river. We tried and loved both. The one in the city center has more buffet options because it has more space. The one on the other side of the city in the market hall is smaller. Both buffets were fully vegan. The staff in both locations was superfriendly and the athmosphere was very good as well. Even my non-vegan friend liked it very much. And even people who can't eat wheat have enough options to eat and some desserts are labeled as gluten free and come with a list of their ingredients.

Lots of Variety w/ Great Drink Menu - Edit
We are not buffet people - but we liked this place. There is a variety to choose from, and some items rotate while during your meal. Service was nice, and the food had helpful descriptions.
Read moreI do wish they would cover the food, as some people are not very clean or hygienic around the food (licking their fingers). They have gloves available to use to pick up the food tongs. No one, except us, was using them.
Plenty of seating and a great drink menu to accompany the meal.
Updated from previous review on 2023-02-14
Pros: Gloves are provided to pick up tongs
Cons: Some customers are not "hygienic" around buffet, Food not covered
