About
Us
Lisbon’s first vegan restaurant.
The Food Temple opened 12 years ago as a pioneer of vegan cuisine in Lisbon, and never left the heart of Mouraria. Waiters, foodies, chefs, friends, customers and neighbors went back and forth all those years and contributed to creating the unique identity of this place.
As the restaurant has had several lives already, some of you have been supporting us for a very long time while others have just discovered us. But to all of you, we want to share our excitement as we write a new chapter of The Food Temple’s story with you, night after night, dinner after dinner.

You'd like to think it's just about the food
but it's just as much these working souls
their smiles, their aura, their attitude
that make the visit something whole
Take this inviting set of ascending stairs
Combine it with each attentive mind that cares
Then have a bite, it's love on a plate to sample
But if not for its people, it wouldn't be a temple
