Incredible. I’ve had the luxury or trying octopus in many different ways in many different countries but the grilled octopus here was the most tender and delicious of all. As I’m writing this review I can taste the memory… We also enjoyed the shrimp and mussel risotto and the mixed green salad. Topped it off with the chocolate mousse and we were smitten. The service was amazing and very helpful. Would highly recommend.

The food was delicious. We had the codfish, risotto, steak, and a chicken dish. Everyone was happy and left with full stomachs! We also had a glass of the house red and green wine, and finished with some port.

Best seafood tasted in Lisboa. Kind staff and beautiful view just in front of the restaurant. Perfect!!

Our second time back and it is just as good as we remember. The Algarve fish stew, served in a copper pot, is not to be missed.

We both had risotto (the shrimp one and the mushroom one) and they were both really good. They were out of multiple menu items when we went which isn't a big deal but it's why we only tried the risottos. Farol de Santa Luzia is a short walk from multiple miradouros which was great if you have to wait. You can make a reservation (we did a few weeks beforehand) but I don't think it's required. The interior walls were covered in tile and were beautiful. The food and vibes were great

If you are staying in the Alfama area, then you should consider dining in at this authentic Portuguese restaurant. My air b&b host recommended me this restaurant and I am very grateful to him. The servers spoke adequate English so that I did not have to try out my poor Portuguese speaking drills. I am not 100% sure, but I think the menu was also available in English. What are they good at? Seafood and anything that's seafood. Bacalo, camaron and pulvo were all excellent. You can try their risotto and charcuterie meats if you are not a big seafood fan. The seafood stew was memorable. It was during mid-Feb and it was quite cold (not freezing due to plenty of sun). And consuming that seafood stew was heavenly under that circumstance. I ended up dining in at this restaurant twice during my 6 days stay in the Alfama. I wouldn't go out of my way to dine in at this place (then it would fit the criteria of Michelin 1 star), but I will definitely revisit if I am in the Alfama area.

Excellent and authentic Portuguese food in a relaxed setting. This restaurant came highly recommended and we were not disappointed. Good food and wine at a reasonable price. We chose the octopus salad, croquettes and prawns to start accompanied with some bread. The quality of the ingredients and dedication to presentation was apparent from the outset, this was continued in the excellent octopus main course and Bitoque, all washed down with a very good Vinho Verde. We couldn’t resist a dessert and coffee to finish, and chose from the many sweet treats available from the counter. Looking forward to coming again!

The best place we ate while in Portugal. The flavors were so fresh and delicious. It was an eating experience I had dreamed about lol. Adorable little place that thankfully took us even without reservations. They did fill up quickly so I would advise calling for a table. So very good with excellent service as well. Hopefully we will be back to experience Portugal and Farol de Santa Luzia again sometime.

We've randomly found ourselves at this restaurant after our visit at miraduro di Santa Luzia. The experience was unique, the food excellent and the atmosphere had a traditional touch. We've ordered the codfish and the shrims' risotto. Both of them were really tasty. Last but not least, the prices were reasonable in relation to the quality! The staff was really friendly which made our dinner even better!

This is a must try place in Lisbon!! We went here for out first proper Portuguese restaurant and it did not disappoint! my partner had the octopus and it was so tender and flavoursome. And my steak, wow! cooked to perfection (in my opinion which is rare) and the Worcestershire cream sauce was to die for! Please try!!

Good place to stop for dinner. You should know that the bread in the begging is not complementary ;) the salad was tasty, wine was great. The service was fast and the staff is friendly. If you already got hungry on the beautiful miradouros nearby, this is your go-to place. One other watch out, the tram 28 going by is blocking all the light every few minutes, that can be districting for some :)

Food and atmosphere here are wonderful. We had an early dinner with our 9.5 month old - there was a high chair available. Definitely try the Bacalhau dish, that was the highlight for us. You can't miss with the desserts either!

the cataplana for 2 people $39.95 is great- taste fresh and have a variety of seafood. Yet for the price I would expect more, since there is plenty other restaurants offer same dish for less than $20.

Yummy food

Amazing seafood. The clams especially - we were soaking up all the leftover sauce with our bread. We forgot to ask our server’s name but he was HUSTLING. He did an amazing job taking care of us and the other guests.

It was amazing! You can see the picture;) It was really tasty . You have to try to eat this. Go to haven .

My girlfriend and I went here last night and were disappointed. I ordered the grilled cod, but it was dry and way overdone. The whole dish was swimming in a pool of olive oil. My girlfriend ordered the steak which was less than an inch thick and also way over cooked. To top the evening off, the bread they bring to the table at the beginning of the meal was not complementary, which we were not aware of until the check arrived.

(Translated by Google) Very good, cozy restaurant. Delicious Portuguese food. The service is excellent. (Original) Nagyon jó, hangulatos étterem. Finom portugál ételek. A kiszolgálás kiváló.

delicious dinner! we had the most amazing time. make sure to get a reservation and some items sells out quick. but everything was fantastic portion and flavour wise! i loved the white sangria, fish chowder, and cheesecake. i highly recommend. the area around is also gorgeous for an after dinner walk!!

Spent a month in Lisbon 8 years ago. I ate here every night after the first time I tried this place. It was that good. I just came back…it’s still amazing. The povo “octopus” cuts thru like butter. You will never find it better done than here. This place will ruin octopus for you because you will never get it better again.

We tried our first cataplana do peixe here. I had been looking forward to it and I wasn’t disappointed! It was so tasty - I was slurping up the remainder of the broth with a spoon. Note that the cataplana also comes with a side of rice and fried potatoes, so you don’t have to order those separately. Pleasant wait staff and a calm, relaxing place to wind down after a day of sightseeing. I would suggest to book a table ahead of time.

Excellent food, had the cataplana and it was so good. Good service and nice and cosy atmosphere. Highly recommend.

(Translated by Google) Good food, excellent service, family atmosphere (Original) Boa comida, excelente atendimento, ambiente familiar

Excellent seafood-oriented restaurant with traditional dishes like fish stew prepared in a cataplana pan, grilled octopus and salted cod. The menu has English translations. The service is mainly in Portuguese but with good understanding of English - so this palace is tourist-friendly, but its is not “touristy”, but rather has a local feel. It’s no-frills, good good. This is a family business owned by the same family for over 30years. People working there are very nice. Opens at 7pm for dinner and fills up quickly every day, so you might be better off making a reservation.

(Translated by Google) This restaurant is magical. The food is very good and the staff very friendly. We stayed just above the restaurant, it was our canteen every night. The octopus salad is excellent like everything else for that matter. It is a very good address in Lisbon and it is well worth the detour. Go there with your eyes closed you will not be disappointed (Original) Ce restaurant est magique. La nourriture est très bonne et le personnel fort sympathique. Nous avons logé juste au dessus du resto c'était notre cantine tous les soirs. La salade de poulpes est excellente comme tout le reste d'ailleurs. C'est une très bonne adresse sur Lisbonne et il vaut vraiment le détour. Allez y les yeux fermés vous ne serez pas déçus

Nice calm restaurant with charming ambience. Food was good but probably not worth the higher prices when compared to other restaurants of the same category. The service was kind and fast, though I couldn't help but noticing a sexist comment from one male waiter to her colleague in front of clients when she was struggling with opening the cataplana pan ("a man is a man").

beautiful restaurant, great location and even better food. the grilled octopus was phenomenal and the chicken with mushrooms and asparagus was just as good

This has to be one of Lisbon’s top restaurant. The ambiance was suitable for a romantic date. The food was simply amazing. We ordered Polvo Assado and it was fresh and very very tender. It was placed over some delicious bake potatoes. My spouse had the chicken breast and we can assert that they were the most delicious chicken we ever had. I just cannot explained in simple words how they prepared it but our taste buds were jubilant. The servers were extremely attentive and courteous. It is very important that you call and reserve a table or you will not have a chance to experience heaven on Earth. Sadly, we had dinner on Sunday night and on Monday they were closed.

Best meal I have had in Lisbon, also some of the best seafood I have ever had. If you are looking for a spot with great service, amazing food, great wine and a place where there the people have passion and love for what they do, this is the place in Lisbon. Standouts: the Prawn rice dish and the grilled octopus, cannot recommend enough, and if you are looking for a nice wine, look no further than the 2016 Quinta da Pedra Alvarinho, outstanding wine!!!

Delicious Portuguese food. The service was great! I recommend that you make reservations using Google since it can get busy

Very nice food, terrific service. The waiter was superb, and the food was delicious. We had the bread/olive oil/olives to share, then two of the salt cod's, 1 top steak, two desserts, 2 espressos, 1 bottle of wine, a litre of sparkling water and 2 Pepsi's. The bill came to 101 euros for three. Our cod on sweet potatoes was delicious. The crumb was crispy, the potato and spinach sweet and balanced the cod really well. Wine was good (white Dao), desserts very good. Even though it is in a popular part of Lisbon this didn't feel like a tourist trap restaurant. Good quality food, reasonably priced, great service. Very happy with everything.

Excellent fresh food, seafood salad and great service. Beautiful tiled walls. Close to Mirador. What a gem!

The best fish stew in Lisbon. Service are so friendly (and multi-lingual!) and a treat, but you have to book because they do turn people away when they’re full. Fantastic wine selection too.

Good food, good atmosphere, staff speaks english.

Great family restaurant. Everything was tasty, from the shrimp, to the mussels, pork, and potatoes. As is the custom in Portugal, they offer bread/butter/olives at the beginning of the meal -- you can choose to pay for them, or not. We gladly paid. Service was friendly and attentive. Highly recommend!

Beautiful views with street music (guitar, Fado). Great place to have wine with friends to end your day or enjoy an evening as a tourist in Lisbon. Can get a bit windy.

Great food, good wines and coziness

Excellent food... our booking got messed up a little so we had to wait for 30 min. But the food was worth the wait

Excellent restaurant! I had an amazing dinner with an exquisite wine, it was great. Good service and hight quality food. I very much recommend the see food and the local menu.

Excellent Portuguese menu, we had fish chowder followed shrimp risotto, shrimp starter followed by grouper. Each was perfect of its type. Wine and water all good. Be aware that wine is only by the half or full bottle, not by the glass. Service was excellent and quick even though the restaurant was totally full.

We had dinner on valentine’s day, there were only 2 staffs to do serving and 1 at the bar. The 2 staffs were busy, so I wouldn’t say the service was great, but it’s Ok. We had clams for starter, no surprise in a good way which has good flavour of garlic butter with light lemon. Then we had fish chowder, this was surprisingly good - you won’t see the actual fish in the soup, they had blend all ingredient which you can tasted the freshness of fish in every dip. For the main, the octopus is definitely the star dish! It cooked perfectly!! And we had another main was pork clams with potato, that’s our least favourite of the night, the pork was chewy and dry, and the sauce tasted a bit too salty for me. But in general the night was good!

Amazing local cuisine, best dish I had in all Lisbon. It is a cosy and romantic place. The people there are really friendly. When I was there, a boy had his birthday, and shared his cake with everyone in the restaurant.

Great atmosphere, the waiter was one of the kindest we’ve met in Lisbon and the food was more than delicious! All for a reasonable price. I can recommend everyone to go here!

(Translated by Google) Very friendly service and the food was great. I wanted my beef red, which usually failed, but here they were very close.

The hotel (Convento do Salvador) had recommended it to me and I was happy with that. Recommended! (Original) Erg vriendelijke bediening en het eten was prima. Ik wilde mijn rundvlees rood, wat meestal mislukt, maar hier waren ze wel heel dichtbij. Het vlees was zo mals als ik nog nooit op het Iberisch schiereiland gehad heb, super!

I would highly recommend this restaurant. Excellent food and friendly service. Well run with a personal touch. We have been in Lisbon for nearly a week and this is the best restaurant so far. Andrina and Donald Wright

Great food, great wine, great service! Highly recommended

Amazing salted Cod. The restaurant is so lovely as well. Just watch out for the bread, they put it on the table and it seems as if it is complimentary but it actually costs 4€. Not the greatest vegetarian options but good desert.

This is a place to recommend! Food is great, the place is cosy, staff is very friendly and prices are good too. One employee was new and has a few stuff to learn, but I guess soon he’ll be great too. Keep the good work!

Great seafood.

the food was edible, but nothing to write home about...

After five years is still a great place where to have a lunch or dinner with some Portuguese dishes. The dishes are not too much elaborated yet very simple but really good with distinct flavours of the raw materials. Strongly recommended and advised that you book a table to avoid any disappointment.

(Translated by Google) Fantastic restaurant with super friendly and helpful employees, with simply delicious food. Interesting and diverse menu, I myself tried everything they serve! I will go back there several times! (Original) Restaurante fantástico com empregados super simpáticos e prestáveis, com comida simplesmente deliciosa.
