Be careful with listed allergens on the menu...

Firstly I must say the service was friendly and helpful. However, the listed allergens on the menu is shockingly inaccurate and needs to be sorted. The menu listed that very few dishes contained soy but after checking almost every dish did. I was also told the 'Toffish', a tofu dish, didn't have soy. It would be so much better not to list the allergens if they are going to be so inaccurate. Very disappointing... The food itself was pretty bland too, I guess the lack of care on the menu extends to the kitchen.

Pros: Service

Cons: Totally wrong allergens, Food quality

Great Place!

Beautiful and elegant restaurant with a very pleasant atmosphere.
The service was very nice and unobtrusive.
The food was super delicious and nicely presented.
We would definitely visit the restaurant again on our next postage holiday.

A very enjoyable diner

Tiny things aside (e.g. the bread was not fresh on a sunday) it was a very pleasant experience. Beautiful selection of wines and excellent cocktails. From a simple Negroni to the Smash Basil, Raw Passionfruit, Expresso Curado or No almond Jamie (my favourite) they were all lovely and very well made. We spent more on the drinks than on the food :)

Pros: Excellent cocktails!

Good food and interesting menu

Tartar - do not skip, it was delicious.
Tortilla - not worth it, just a fried mushroom and tofu tortilla
Tofu wellington - good, a tad oversalted
Loin - veg and potatoes were good, the loin was just a big chunk of seitan
Chocolate garden - fine, bits of brownie
Pistachio tiramisu - very light and not too sweet


Options - excellent, though they lean on the fake meats for the mains which isn't too my preference
Taste - good, a little oversalted at times
Ambience - odd lighting, really bright and not intimate at all.

Incrível

Tinha expectativas altas e não foram defraudadas. Comida excelente num espaço muito bonito. Tudo o que provamos estava fora de série, tanto no sabor como na apresentação. Aviso à navegação - esta excelência paga-se: couverts, 2 entradas, 2 pratos, 2 copos de vinho, água, 1 sobremesa e 1 café, 100€. Voltarei.

Good food in a really nice place

We ate in the patio which was really chic. The waiters were nice and welcoming and the service was exceptional. The food was good (we took Porto tripes and toffish) but maybe not as delicate as we expected to. Pistachio tiramisu was fine (even if it was not a real tiramisu) and the idea of enveloping the tofu with nori seaweed really interesting!

Delicious, good service

We had Tofu Wellington and Dhal curry, red wine, followed by cheesecake and Tiramisu. All delicious. The service was excellent and discreet. The restaurant is decorated with good taste.

Pros: flavourful, happy synthesis of European and Asian cuisine

We enjoyed a well balanced meal in a peaceful atmosphere

We had the opportunity to eat at Jardineiro. We enjoyed a couvert, a main course and desert with coffee. I was happy to have many options with local food (and without mushrooms).

Both the main course and the desert had a good proportion and flavour.

Pros: The possible options, The friendly staff, The taste and atmosphere

Cons: A right price that might be rather high for some

Uma verdadeira experiência

Jantar no Jardineiro foi uma experiência completa! Desde um local lindo e super agradável, atendimento excepcional e uma comida que não tenho nem palavras para descrever!
Já passou da hora dos restaurantes vegetarianos e vegan deixarem de servir só fast-food. Isso sim é gastronomia vegetal!
Uma experiência a se repetir!

Pros: Comida magnífica, Atendimento excepcional , Ambiente super agradável

Amazing!!

The food tastes great, I had the carrot and parsnip tartar, the tofu wellington and the blueberry cheesecake. The cheesecake was incredibly tasty!! The whole place has a nice, intimate atmosphere with a great service from the staff! It's a quiet hidden gem which I highly recommend! One of my best experiences. The prices are affordable for this type of food experience.

Good but not worth price

All of the dishes we had were good, but very small for the price. We tried the linguini, the tofu Wellington, and the tiramisu.

Great for a treat dinner

My partner and I had a lovely meal here. It’s a treat to eat out at a place like this that has a fully vegan menu. Vibe in the restaurant is nice and chill and service was really good.

Food was good, not the best we’ve ever had and a bit fussy for us (small portions, expensive for what you get) but the presentation was amazing and we had an amazing bottle of Crasto Superior douro white wine!

For mains we had tofu Wellington (tasty, texture was a bit mushy and I wish there was more veg, but otherwise good) and seitan steak which was good but a little bit lacking in flavour.

Star of the show food wise was the mushroom starter - we got one between us to share but we wish we got one each!!

Pistachio tiramisu desert was tasty, stay away from the pana cotta, my partner really didn’t like it

Pros: Presentation of food, Mushroom starter, Nice vibe

Cons: Portion size , Lack of veg on main courses, Pana cotta wasn’t good

Great mushroom starter

Lunchmenu with three courses for €18,00. The starter with mushrooms was really delicious, the rice of the risotto was not really good (type of rice or cookingmethod?), but the different types of mushrooms were really tasteful. The linguini with pesto was nice but a bit boring. The apple crumble was good, although the icecream was a bit non descript.

Friendly staff.

10 stars

Not cheap but worth every penny. This place rocked my (vegan) world. It’s very unassuming until you enter the building and then, one is in wonderland. The service is spectacular, the setting is absolutely beautiful and the food made me want to live in Porto. The kitchen ladies are like fairy godmothers I I made sure they knew that.

Pros: Service, Food, Interior design.

Very good but not quite perfect

This is an upscale restaurant in the ground floor of a hotel, with a separate street entrance but joined inside.
The food is high quality and creative, and gives opportunity to try many Porto classics such as tripe stew. However it is not quite as I would expect for the price; the toffish was delicious but without enough seaweed to give a flavour to the full block of tofu, and the pistachio tiramisu closer to a (slightly dry) chocolate cake with pistachio cream.

There are two big negatives to me: one, not all wines are vegan (although those that are are clearly marked) and two, the hotel is *not* vegan, and the same kitchen cooks and provides meat containing breakfasts each day. This detracts somewhat from the vegan restaurant it becomes each evening.

Pros: Porto classics, High quality fresh food

Cons: Not all wines vegan, Restaurant shared with non vegan hotel

It’s a must go for vegans

Wow! I must say, this vegan restaurant is truly exceptional. From its elegant ambiance to the friendly and attentive staff, everything about it is simply delightful. And let's not forget about the incredible flavors of the food – absolutely delicious! While it may be a bit pricey, the experience is well worth it. I wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone looking for a top-notch dining experience in Porto.
