Is it really Junk food?

Nestled within the Chiado district, Plant Base presents a concealed entrance that may easily be overlooked, as I initially did. However, upon entering, a remarkable transformation occurs. The interior is spacious and features two distinct dining areas: one situated near the entrance and the other situated around the corner, adjacent to the bar.
While the description of Plant Base suggests that it serves “junk food,” I strongly disagree. The culinary offerings here are exceptional. I have visited Plant Base twice within a week, and each time, I have been pleasantly surprised.
On my first visit, I indulged in The Special Burger, a delectable creation featuring a Beyond Burger patty, vegan cheese, caramelized onions, fried onions, tomatoes, cucumber pickles, and sriracha mayonnaise, all nestled on a red onion bun.
On my second visit, I opted for the JHOL MOMO, a culinary masterpiece consisting of steamed Himalayan Momos immersed in a delectable tomato curry, complemented by red onions and cilantro.
In my opinion, I have discovered my favorite Plant Base dish. The JHOL MOMO boasts a harmonious blend of flavors, with a touch of heat that resonated with my preferences. Its deep, rich taste left me thoroughly satisfied.

Amazing pizza and Mac n cheese

After reading a few of the comments, I went with low expectations, but the food was really tasty. It was amazing! I loved the Mac and cheese, and also the pizza (I forgot the name, it was salchicha something). Kind staff. Totally recommended.

Pros: All vegan

Cons: A bit pricey but probably because of the location

Good momos

I had iced tea (no sugar, yay) and the fried momos, which came with sauce and ketchup. Unfortunately, no “fish” the day I was there - I’d like to try the fish-and-chips. They have burgers, nachos, momo bowls, pizza, mac-n-cheese, fries - lots of comfort food. Other diners were evidently enjoying their pizzas and momos-in-sauce.

Pros: all vegan

Casual and delicious

Great value for money. Best nachos we've had. Chorizo pizza was so flavourful. Service was quick and location small and nice. Would definitely go back for more.

Pros: Price, Flavour, Food

Food was good

The food was good but we didn’t feel very welcome. We turned up and was told to sit anywhere, picked our seats and started to look at the menu when a group of 4 came in and wanted to sit on the table next to us we was told we had to move (no others turned up)

The pizza was good but you don’t get a lot of toppings and the nachos were excellent

Pros: Aesthetically pleasing

Cons: Not very welcoming

Disappointed

Honestly, was expecting much better. Had the fish and chips and the fish was super processed and soooooo dry. Burger was ok but nothing out of the ordinary.

Good enough

Food here is good, the staff is very friendly and the prices are fair. However I was a bit disappointed in the dishes as the pictures I had seen online look nothing like how they look in real life. The pizzas and Momo's we tried were good, but expected something else.

Pros: Super friendly staff, Good prices

Cons: Pictures exaggerate

Below expectations

From the pictures and ratings in happy cow, this restaurant seems like a higher end Pizzeria. But it actually is a junk food spot with Nepalese roots that does a bit of everything.

Despite having very nice attention and good variety, the food was not as impressive as other places in Lisbon. The dishes lacked a certain *oomph* that pushed them from good to great.

The mushroom pizza was quite delicious, but everything else had room for improvement.

Not bad by any means, but definitely not what was advertised.

Stunning

We tried the mac and cheese starter which was so tasty! And got the mushroom and artichoke pizza and the Big Mac pizza, both of which were delicious. The pizza has a great crust and nice sauce. Thoroughly enjoyed!

Edit: went back again because the food was so good! This time tried the nachos which were insanely good, and the Jhol momos, great sauce, great level of spice, delicious

Edit 2: went back again! The food is just too good. This time we tried the fish burger and the prego- both very tasty! Also had the nachos and Mac and cheese again because they’re so good!

Good fast food

If you are craving comfort food, this is a food place for you to satisfy that. Pizzas are very cheesy, the Momos are nice (try the ones in the soup/sauce) and the Nachos the best we've ever had.

great lunch

we had lunch at this place recommended by happycow. we stopped here because they prepare Prego, a typical Portuguese sandwich. we also ordered the garlic bread and it was probably a mistake because the portions are really huge!
we asked for a box to take away the leftovers and they were very kind. the only negative note was the heat inside the place which did not allow us to fully enjoy the meal

Pros: huge portions , tasty food

Cons: heat

Ok but a little too greasy

The tacos were good, but the pizzas a bit too greasy and strange flavours. We ordered piña coladas as well, but had to send them back as they tasted terrible - we still got charged.

Awesome late night eats

I went there for nachos and a drink and they absolutely did not skimp out. Besides that it was very tasty and just what I was craving:)

Nice fast food but nothing special

The restaurant looks really. I got the pizza with beyond to go. It was delicous, but it seems like nothing on it was self made (maybe the sauce). They could have put more toppings on it.

Disappointed in quality, great in concept

This place has a tonne of options and was exactly what we were craving, service was good etc. This place is in the centre of Lisbon so prices are higher. The burger bun was hard and the flavour was off / unusual - I couldn't put my finger on it as a vegan who eats all the cuisine felt a bit weird. There is some fantastic food in Lisbon and unfortunately I wouldn't recommend this. I don't like leaving negative reviews but know that great vegan food is out there, just needs a little quality testing.

Pros: Quick service , Busy atmosphere , Loads of options

Cons: Quality not checked , Burger not to standard , Decor just ok

Amazing food!

We stopped for dinner and were delighted with our meals. The Mac and cheese was delicious. Our burgers were tasty and even the fries were nice and crunchy. The staff was very friendly.

Pros: Food, Staff

Okay

Pizza crust was delicious, but the tomato sauce was too sweet and tasted like out of a jar. Expected more.
Three stars only because it is completely vegan and the staff were great.

Excellent menu variety and tasty food

A large variety of options are on the menu here. I've tried them all through repeat visits and none disappoint! I highly recommend this place.

Pros: Momos are delicious, Best vegan Prego, Good tacos

Cons: The pizza sauce is a bit too sweet, They use tinned instead of fresh nopales

Great vibe good fast food

Nachos were amazing. One of the best I've ever had, a lot of ingredients that worked well together. Pizzas were top quality from oven and even non-vegan friends liked it and ordered more. Momo soup was brilliant. Staff were attentive. Great vibe.

Pros: Portions, Food, Quality

Awesome Pizza

Was in Italy before coming to Portugal. Had pizza there. It wasn't as good as this. Not even close. Might have to return to try the fish and chips too.
