👍👍 The best francesinha I’ve had in Portugal. It comes in a deep steaming pot and stays hot as you eat it with all that cheese oozing out while the bread soaks up the sauce. Shrimps and clams were excellent too. Seafood soup was pleasant but nothing special. The place is very affordable; portions are...

    The grilled salmon was very tasty. The same as the salmon rice my friend ordered. Only the portion is definitely not designed for one person. Also, if you haven't booked a table in advance, you have to wait 15-30 minutes.

    We hosted a lovely private dinner for a few of our partners and I have to say this place is just full of great food, very friendly staff, great drinks and some very good vibes. If you are around and in case you are planning to host a bigger group, Tacho do Peacador should be top of mind. The location was simply beautiful and we will make sure to come again.

    Wow! We've found this place kind of accidentally, just wanted to eat some traditional cod. Then I discovered there's Feijoada which I've always wanted to try, served in few versions. I picked the one with cuttlefish and shrimps and OMG! It was in the metal pot with the lid, so it stayed hot the whole time. The rice was cooked really good and with the feijoada it tasted AMAZING! Sangria is also really good there, especially the one with champaign ;) And very friendly, patient staff - there was so many great meals in the menu, we couldn't decide on what to try)! :)

    Food is good but service is a bit weak. Too many smokers sitting for outdoor dining.

    Nice place to have a dinner in the area. Tasty food, interesting options in the menu, lots of wine options. Octopus was nice, but not the best one I had in Lisbon, that’s why I put 4 stars. Also, during the reservation I asked to be seated on the second floor but it didn’t happen. Other than that all was good.

    We have ordered 3 dorada meals, I had to wait 10 more minutes for the 3rd. one. I got apologise but this is not acceptable in any other restaurants. There is an other issue with flies if you eat outside , need to fight all the time with them, I know this is what they can not do much about it, this was just an observation.

    After a long walk, we stopped to enjoy some starters. The food was satisfactory. However, it was surprising to find the restaurant charging a euro for butter, only to serve margarine instead. On a positive note, they did offer to refund the euro when this was pointed out. An odd experience was having to remove foil from our starter plates ourselves, despite the presence of nearly 10 staff members nearby and no other guests around at the time

    Always a great option to eat in Parque das Nações. The prices are fair and the quality is very good. The service can be improved.

    Pay attention and reserve a seat because it's always full! Here you can taste typical Portuguese dishes, especially Bacalau. The garlic shrimps were really good!

    Nice staff, nice food, nice wines. Nice stop after a walk Not the perfect place but a perfect stop for the moment you are.

    Went twice for dinner, it was so good! Had the Bacalau con Natas which was creamy and flavorful and the grilled octopus. The next night, had the octopus in curry on rice and that was amazing. Great wines!

    Delicious and well-cooked octopus, a large portion. I advise you to try the wine, the photo of which is attached to the review, a pleasant aroma, a delicate aftertaste and a very tasty wine. P.S. To guide the waiter, before taking an order from guests, you need to wipe the table from street dust. The order was brought to us, and the whole table, appliances, plates were dirty (dust collected all day), it's good that the finished dish was in a separate plate

    Out of this world flavor. We came here on a whim and will never forget how unique the recipes were. We eat a lot of fish and have never had it like the Massada de grapoura or the seafood soup. Highly affordable menu.

    Einige Tapas wurden uns direkt auf Tellern präsentiert, diese die man haben wollte bekam man der Rest wurde wieder mitgenommen, was gewöhnungsbedürftig war, jedoch den Hunger sofort stillte. Auf den Hauptgang mussten wir auch nicht lange warten. Die Portionen waren gut, die Anrichte ok, aber geschmeckt hat es sowas von gut! Das Personal war nett, die Einrichtung einfach und zweckmässig.

    If you are wanting to try seafood on a cold day, this is for you. Heck if you wanted to just have a good meal then come here. The service is great here and the food is so delicious.

  • 4/5 Kerisha 1 year ago on Google
    The food was great! I'd for sure go again, the service was very slow, I wasn't in a rush, but I was having lunch with some colleagues who needed to go back to work so they were a bit annoyed. Hopefully the slowness was a one off.

    Came here for lunch. Cerveza for a hot day is perfect :) Had octopus dish and shrimp pot rice. They are fabulous. Octopus is perfect on tenderness and the vegetable coming with it balances the heavy garlic taste. The Shrimp Pot rice is just simply balanced - not too heavy on flavor as it looks. Recommend!

    The service is really nice and they have a lot of staff that are always making sure you have what you need. The food is delicious I suggest getting the Camarones al ajillo 🤤 and we also eat the rice with fish and shrimps it was really good and the pot for 1 is enough to share between two after the entrance.

    Maybe the worst restaurant in Lisbon. Food is awful, nobody speaks English well. Beer is mediocre, that’s the best(

  • 5/5 Elle 1 year ago on Google
    This was my first meal in Lisbon and it was so good! Also, the wine was reasonably priced ( although apparently wine in general is inexpensive in Portugal). I really enjoyed the chicken steak with cream sauce over rice and the veal croquettes.
