    One of the best meals I've had so far this year. Service was excellent. Both waitress and waiter were friendly yet quite respectful of our privacy. Excellent explanation of the menu. The food is just marvelous! From the beginning to the very end. We had an entre Cote matured and it was amazing. The same with the octopus which was perfectly cooked. Bravo !!! Ohh and wait for it...the dessert. It was outstandingly amazing!!! The cheesecake was just perfection. We loved it !!!! Thank you very much. You're kind and professional people and you deserve to have millions of customers. I wish we lived in Lisbon. I'd come every week. Congrats!!!

    One of our favourite meals in Portugal. My boyfriend got the tenderloin steak rare and I got the octopus dish. We also shared the blood pudding and the salmon gravlax to start. Everything we ordered was perfect! The salmon came with a shipped horseradish cream and pink peppercorns which paired super well. The blood sausage came with a perfectly poached egg, which added some creaminess to the blood sausage. The steak came perfectly cooked and in a gravy like sauce. It was tender and juicy. The octopus was slightly smokey, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. This dish came with sweet potatoe and some roasted vegetables. We ended off the meal with the deep fried ice cream which came with salted caramel, peanuts and banana. The peanuts help to dull the sweetness of the bananas so it was just the right amount of sweetness! Overall, I would recommend this restaurant. All of the dishes we ordered I loved. The service was on point and the waiting staff were super attentive. I'd recommend making reservations, we RSVPed on a Friday night at 8pm and most of the tables were reserved!

    Delectable dishes, great decor and ambiance. The friendly, welcoming and professional staff speak English and are very skilled at making excellent meal suggestions. The fried ice cream is to die for 🤩 and there are several wine options. I'll definitely go back to try more dishes. Excellent value for money. Note: it opens at 12.30pm.

    We found this restaurant on Trip Advisor and we’re delighted we booked it. Great ambience with excellent service & a superb knowledge of the wine list. Food was fab and desserts to die for. If we were here longer we would return. Thank you a great evening.

    Welcome was ok The starter - black pudding (boudin) was fair ; not more The fish of the day was just horrible !!!! I have eaten just a few pieces Wine proposition was at best ok Not a recommendation Bad experience in Portugal Maybe a bad luck of the day But to be honest they did not charged it at the end

    Great restaurant with high quality food, cooked really well with attentive staff and a nice wine list. We had fish and steak and would recommend both. We would return.

  • 2/5 Kateryna K. 3 months ago on Google • 18 reviews New
    First time in the restaurant. Overall I liked it, the atmosphere was good. However, I think it's a bit expensive for what it is. There was one moment that made me a little disappointed. I asked for a glass of Green wine and the waitress served white wine from a bottle that was already open and with the wine at the end. It was my mistake, as I should have called her straight away instead of accepting the glass. Anyway, there are other restaurants where I'll pay the same price but with a better service.

    The meat had too much salt. The smashed sweet potatoes were mixed with something that brought out the sweetness in a weird way. Don't recommend the pork or the sweet potatoes. Ribs were fine. Not worth the price.

    Absolutely fantastic food, the ambience is beautiful, the service was impeccable, i wish I'd live in lisbon so i can come here more often

    Happened upon IIIMPAR after an extraordinarily rainy day. The food was delicious and our waitress/host was delightful as well as helpful. I most highly recommended.

    Wow! Did we discover Lisbon’s hidden gem, or what? Amazing food and fantastic wine. A big collection of superb wines! The dessert came straight out from heaven! Or hell, depending how you look at it. Service was Michelin star level! If you are a restaurant owner, hire this waiter, make him a maitre, triple his salary!

    Unfortunately, the experience fell behind expectations in this restaurant. Descriptions of dishes weren't all exact, so that e.g. there was as good as no fennel in the fennel salad dish. Other than that, the pork ribs were hardly edible, as they were so tough and chewy; the food in general was just about warm, if not already cold. There's for sure way better places in Lisbon.

    This was the finest culinary experience I had during my short 4-day trip in Lisboa. I tend to not repeat places to eat whenever I travel, but this place I shall definitely eat at again whenever I come back to Lisboa. Every aspect of the food & drinks was exquisite, the ambiance was chill and the service was excellent. Whether you eat the meat (I ordered the picahna) or prefer seafood (my SO had octopus), you will both satisfied and wanting more.

  • 5/5 Federico Garcia F. 1 year ago on Google
    Great experience in Lisbon. Booked with The Fork, there was also a good discount. Food was great and service PERFECT. All waiter were good English speaker and ready for help. Only issue: the waitress served us a bill without discount application, I asked for clarification and they changed it accordingly. I don’t know if it was done on purpose or not.

  • 2/5 Valter A. 1 year ago on Google
    Impressive interior design. Found the food sadly somewhat bland and sauce mostly salty. Don't go for the meat, the octopus is worth 3/5 instead. Not giving printed menus at first and having a glaring video game ad from the next tables powerbank brings the total down to 2/5.

  • 5/5 Valentina R. 1 year ago on Google
    Really nice restaurant with super friendly staff and super good food. We had a great time!

  • 5/5 Titanic M. 1 year ago on Google
    Excellent service and food to match. Steaks were outstanding and on asking for a glass of red was recommended a local variety which was not expensive but was very good quality and a perfect match for the food. Staff are not pushy and we’re very happy to assist and guide, didn’t mind our 7 year old not eating a main course and made us feel extremely welcome and comfortable- very good service, food and drink all round, we went on the word of a friend who had been there and would definitely recommend

  • 5/5 RTV 1 year ago on Google
    Very very tasting food and excellent service. Ambience comfy. If you’re in Lisbon you’ll feel very welcome there.

  • 4/5 sophie k. 1 year ago on Google
    Great restaurant with amazing hospitality, and had a cosy yet modern feel. Quality of the beef was great, with the only downside being that the desserts we had, the chocolate mousse and the fried ice cream, were a bit too salty for us

  • 5/5 Maxime R. 1 year ago on Google
    Delicious shrimp fried dumpling. The bacalhau was good too.

  • 5/5 Justin J. 1 year ago on Google
    Phenomenal restaurant. Service is exceptional, precise, personal and attentive. Ambience is fantastic. Food was delivered professionally, timely and beyond expectations. Cooked and seasoned to perfection. Wine selection is wide. Desserts are to die for. IIIMPAR is guaranteed to impress.

  • 5/5 Hoony L. 1 year ago on Google
    The octopus is a must! Great flavor and super tender. The sweet potato can feel a tad bit heavy, but should be fine with some wine.

  • 4/5 Grace X. 4 years ago on Google
    Really enjoyed our appetizers and desserts! The main was too salty, so I didn’t enjoy much. Service was good, we got served by 4-5 different waiters/waitress, a bit odd, but maybe that’s how they work there.

  • 5/5 Matei G. 2 years ago on Google
    Proper steak for once. Good job, guys 😉 Oh and the wine was quite something too!

  • 3/5 Jasmin C. 2 years ago on Google
    We had various meals e.g. crispy shrimp dumplings, octopus and beef steak and for dessert cheese cake and the fried ice cream. It was quite tasty in general. The shrimp dumplings were perfect. The octopus was interesting and definitely is recommendable. The beef steak with egg on top served with fries is okay, but very mighty. Not a lot of spices and somehow feels like something is missing. The fries were really good. Both desserts were quite tasty but in combination with a main dish too mighty. As a cheese cake lover I was a bit disappointed cause it was rather a touch of American cheese cake in an attempted fancy way. The fried ice cream is absolutely interesting. The taste of the not so crispy shell was not great and a bit boring. Staff was kind of friendly, but made us feel a bit uncomfortable by asking if the food was good a bit too often.

  • 5/5 Georgiana J. 2 years ago on Google
    Every visit here is an excellent culinar experience. Here we had the best octopus not only from Portugal, but from Europe. The wine selection is also great. We were here about 4 years ago and the service and food are still in high standards, as we remembered. Really recommending this restaurant. I regret I don't live in Lisbon to be able to visit it more often.

  • 1/5 Hans M. 2 years ago on Google
    Service and loation great. But tourist trap. The fish (cod) was literally like a shoe sole. The fish burger at McDonalds is 10 times better. Fast food level. Absolute rip off. Won’t recommend.

  • 5/5 André A. 2 years ago on Google
    Impressive service and meal. The menu doesn’t really tell how good the meal is going to be or how it is served. More appealing names could fit the menu. The meat was really good. Had an entrecôte and the portion was enough for two people. Had a home made “morcela” for starter and it was great! Unbelievably good! The flavors and the experience was totally there. The service was very friendly. We were served by the waitress and she was very delicate and respected our privacy. Congrats for both the meal and the service.
