    The food is excellent, kebabs and other types of meat are cooked to perfection with a special blend of spices from Karachi The service lets the restaurant down, or it did on this particular evening, in any case. It took around 45 minutes for the food to arrive which is unacceptable. Having to pay extra for salad is another negative considering we paid for 'special'. Also, a small portion of chips, especially since it's meant to be shared between two people

    Hands down best Pakistani food ever. Nothing like this outside of Karachi. Authentic, fresh, flavorful food that is hard to find. Hospitable staff that treated us like family. Bbq platter, drinks, fries, and chai were 10/10! Please visit this hidden gem when you’re in Lisbon. Will not be disappointed!! Can’t wait to come back.

    Visiting from California. Loved the food. Spicy means spicy. The staff and manager all were super friendly and glad to chat with them and learn about the local culture. owner/manager treats the wait staff guys like family and I loved the vibes. I would definitely eat here again. I will say, in a good way. When you’re done eating make sure you’re going back to your hotel with a available bathroom because the spice is good: both going in and out 🤭

    We arrived in Lisbon pretty late and was excited that they were open. We came in about 20 minutes before closing. They had English menus available. The grilling of the meet was open and easy to see. I loved the mango lassi. All of the food was hot and tasty.

    Delicious food and incredibly warm service. The owner is a very kind and hospitable man and has a great passion for his culture and food. If you’re missing a taste of home, or just want some fresh halal Pakistani food- this is the spot! Don’t be worried about the lack of reviews- this spot is just undiscovered :) Take the time to talk to the owner, get his recommendations, you won’t regret it.

    We expected something else for a BBQ Restaurant. The Staff was friendly. The Chickenburger was good. The Kebab had a really Indian taste. We didn’t have to pay the bad Kebab and they prepared mutton boti, they were a little bit better. To heat the fire with a hairdryer was a little bit special… The restaurant was clean. The two big Showcases in the restaurant could be removed, then it would be a better athmosphere.

    Selected this restaurant out of the blue for a family lunch and was not disappointed. The staff was lovely and the food delicious. They even gave us several spicy sauces to try, so nice. Recommend if you're into this kind of food!

    Excellent location and tasty food. Walking for hours my wife and I had cravings for real desi food. We Googled and found BBQ Tonight just steps away from the city center. When we walked up to the restaurant the owner Kamran and his staff welcomed us. He recommended the mixed grill for us and a couple of zinger burgers for my kids. Everything was made fresh for the food to arrive in about 40 mins but it was worth the wait. Everything was so delicious and made to order with the taste from back home. One could tell he used fresh ingredients. Ah! not to forget his chai. Full "chuskee" and made fresh like it is supposed to be.

    Visited on a Wednesday night with no reservation - we had the restaurant to ourselves, and the staff was so friendly and helpful in explaining the menu to us and helping us choose what to order. We got jalapeno poppers, green salad, spicy chicken (came with rice & fries), spicy beef, and both garlic + cheese Naan. Everything was absolutely delicious and served fresh! There were lots of other items on the menu I'd want to return and try. Would definitely recommend!

    Wow. Did not expect a halal meal this good while visiting. Authentic Pakistani barbecue but they also have the staple Pakistani favorites like the zinger burger. This is the best zinger I’ve ever had (soft but crispy and not too crunchy, perfection!). Ok but don’t stop there. Their rabri kheer is SO good and topped with the right ratio of almonds. I’m going back every day of my trip just for that, and my friend is packing it to take home. Do not leave Lisbon without trying it. Staff is also very friendly and kind 😊

    If you're looking for some delicious meat, BBQ tonight is the place to go. The food was sumptuous, and great in both quantity and quality. The food was also spicy--just as we like it--but here's a word of caution for those who are not used to eating spices: tell them upfront about your spice levels. We ordered for a meat platter for two and it was so good, we didn't need anything else with it. We got up fully satisfied with out meal at BBQ Tonight. Thank you so much!

    Visited Lisbon from Toronto, Canada with some friends. After a day of exploring, came down to BBQ Tonight for some authentic Pakistani/Indian food and were not disappointed. Its truly a gem and everything was cooked to perfection. Taste was awesome, place was clean and the host, Kamran, was a pleasure to deal with. Would definitely recommend and come again.

    Had a amazing night with friends at BBQ Tonight! 100% halal restaurant in The heart of Lisbon with easy access and safe parking near by. Close to metro and all public transports. From the minute we stepped in to this cosy and well decorated restaurante, we felt welcomed by a very friendly staff and by chef Kamran him self, which made us feel at home. Being a large group of 16 guys, we where seated on the lower floor. Good space for groups if you are looking for a more private seating. Equally well decorated space. Now coming to the food and drinks: We had for starters chili cheese balls, jalapeño nuggets and a variety of french fries marinated in different ways. Served with garlic mayo, green chutney and spicy mayo sauces to dip on. All where tasty to start with. Being a Halal restaurant, alcohol is not served in this premises, but not less, we had a good variety of non alcoholic beverages to choose from. Offering a delicious varieties of margaritas, juices and cold drinks. For main course we ordered mix grill platter, naans (breads), chicken mandi and fish tikka pieces. Mix grill platter consists of a verity of mixed chicken and beef pieces, kababs and seeks. Grilled in a open charcoal pit, well presented in a platter to satisfy a group of friends. All pieces where well marinate. Each piece was difrently marinated with authentic Pakistani spices. Some pieces where a bit spicy but it was fine for me. Naans where freshly baked tandoori naans and garlic naans and of good quality. Next we had chicken mandi. I’ve always heard from middle eastern and pakistani friend talking about this dish. Served in a metal tray with afghani styled pulau, infused with spiced basmati rice, raisins and almond. Topped with a mildly spicy and slow cooked full chicken. Friends!!! You where right. A awesome and delightful dish and with the touch of chef Kamran’s hand made justice to this dish. Next we had fish tikka pieces. Succulent juicy pieces of fresh fish marinated with tikka spice. Enjoyed it but at this point we where full from all the grills, mandi and breads. For deserts we had gajar ka halwa, a sweet desert made from a sweetly grated carrots with pistachios, cardamom and saffron and rabbi malai, not certain but looked like a desert made from boiled sweetened milk, cardamom, saffron and dried friuts. Both were very good. Some guys preferred more one, some the other. My self, I liked both equally. Thank you BBQ Tonight for this experience and for receiving us with open arm’s and loads of smile and love. In all, very very very good Pakistani BBQ restaurant located in the heart of Lisbon.
