”Our readers sing the praises of Terra for its superb vegetarian buffet (including vegan options) of salads, kebabs and curries, plus organic wines and juices. A fountain gurgles in the tree-shaded courtyard, lit by tealights after dark.” — lonely planet, Portugal
“Next to Jardim do Príncipe Real, the Terra restaurant offers food made from organic produce. There are a number of very pleasant rooms and a lovely patio where dinners can enjoy their meal. Fans of traditional Portuguese food can discover adaptations of caldeirada (chowder), “fish” filets with tomato rice and even a great seitan à alentejana. Chosen as one of the best restaurants in the capital during a gastronomic contest in Lisbon. ” — Update, TAP magazine
“Terra: Kjent for å være den beste vegetarrestauranten i byen.” — Det Nye
“My favourite place for lunch is the excellent vegetarian restaurant Terra.” — Toby Green, My Kind of Town - Lisbon, The Telegraph

The restaurant Terra in the Press
We are grateful to all the journalists that have published so many articles about the restaurant and also to all the Guests that have recommended it to their friends, sometimes years after their own visit. We work daily to be worthy of your trust!
While most of the coverage has naturally been from the Portuguese Press, there is a growing number of publications with reviews of Terra in other languages and countries. Here you’ll find some of them...
“Terra (“Terre”) est une excellente adresse végétarienne. La carte est pour le moins éclectique et la cuisine assez bonne, servie sous forme de buffet. Tables en sale ou à l’ exterieur, vins biologiques...”
— lonely planet, Lisbonne
“Sit on the shady patio at Terra for a vegetarian feast that incorporates Mediterranean and traditional Portuguese flavors.”
— Tripadvisor Fall & Winter Guide 2011-2012
“In the old part of Lisbon, Terra has a fantastic vegan buffet.” — Moby, interviewed in Travel+Leisure Magazine, American Express

...in this beautifully illustrated hardback book, The Wine and Food Lover’s Guide to Portugal, (Inn House Publishing, 2007). The authors, Charles Metcalfe and Kathryn McWhirter, both well-known and highly respected wine writers, share a passion about the food, drink and culture of Portugal that spreads across every page. Here’s what they say about the restaurant Terra:
“A delightful vegetarian restaurant in Lisbon! Terra’s buffet ranges from oriental to Mediterranean to salads and veggy versions of traditional Portuguese dishes. There’s even a selection for vegans, plus organic juices, beers and wines. Inside the decor is fresh, with white walls and lots of wood. A lovely, tree-shaded garden is romantically lit in the evening, and heated when necessary to prolong ao fresco dining.”
