    Good food! The mini versions of the traditional dish are big enough for a female meal. Dont ask for a house lemonade thou, youll get really strong lemonwater

    This restaurant was super close to our hotel so my wife and I decided to give it a try. I ordered the francesinha. It is supposedly a traditional Portuguese meal. It has so much sauce, an egg on the top with steak, ham and sausage. The sandwich was so tasty 😋. Obviously it’s not too healthy but it’s good to have every once in a while. My wife ordered the octopus. It was pretty good, but a little chewy.

    Haben heute zum Abendessen das Dote besucht, da es nicht weit von unserem Hotel entfernt ist. Unsere Biere wurden schnell serviert und einige Zeit später kam auch unser Essen. Eins vorne weg, meine Ribs sahen um einiges besser aus, als sie geschmeckt hatten. Das Fleisch war zwar zart, aber nicht wirklich warm, maximal lauwarm. Der Preis war eher günstig für die riesen Portion, aber das war es dann auch schon. Für einen noch besseren Preis hatte mein Schwager wesentlich mehr Glück. Er fand seine Kalbssteakstreifen mega zart und lecker und auch die Pommes richtig gut.

    Decent restaurant for the francesinha, but for the love of god, don’t order the hamburger ‘de Alheira’. The sides were nice though.

    The francesinhas (little French girls 😂) are good, but the steak is a hit or miss, my experience with their steaks is bad. I have been several times here with friends and some friends liked it but others didn't. I usually ask for Americana, pork ribs, never fails. Service is super slow.

    Brewery with a modern and cozy style, with an attractive decoration. Good Francesinha with just the right touch of spice. Normal service. Special attention to original small dishes such as hamburgers and miniature nails, ideal for tapas.

    We wanted to try a Francesinho for the first time, and after a quick Google search, we found Dote, just off Avenue Liberdade. The place was really nice, the staff were very friendly and helpful and we enjoyed our meals. We would suggest for anyone looking to experience some local cuisine.

    The best francesinha in Lisbon. Hard to find such a good francesinha away from Porto.

    Very disappointed in the quality of the chicken I had, a bit flavorless and done gristle in it that they should have removed. We sat in the "outdoor" area, it's enclosed with plastic that is probably open in the warmer months. The problem is that people were smoking and it was like being indoors without smoking.

    I had cod (Bacalao) with roated potatoes, black olives, onions..., very tasty, nice beer with it... a perfect lunch. Service was great!

    First time trying francesinha, not bad. It's nice that you can just order half. I was a bit disappointed with the fries though. Bathroom is nice.

    First time try francesinha,it’s delicious. The steak is a bit overcooked. Remember to change your fries to chips, chips are really good taste with the sauce.

    Rushed in during a storm and got a seat ok, just in the nick of time as it soon got busy with all seats taken, which I assume at the time was a good sign. Had some beers with patatas bravas as a starter, good portion between two. Main course steak fries and burger of which we were asked how we would like our burger cooked, which again is a sign of a good restaurant serving home made burgers, the mains came and didn't disappoint, burger was delicious and steak fries cooked to perfection. We noticed the majority of customers were getting a locale dish called Francesinha which I will need to return to try. Good vibes in the place.

    We've been there for diner 3 consécutive evening. So well welcome. Each Time a solution to our requests. And they made a table available on Dec 31st for diner, even we lately asked. So, very good expérience. Thanks to all the staff, and especially to the room manager !

    Ich war heute hier essen, weil ich sehr müde war und keine Lust mehr, im Zentrum nach einem Restaurant zu suchen. Es war mein erster Bacalhau à Bras. Ich fand das Gericht sehr lecker, die Portion mehr als ausreichend. Getränke und Essen wurden flott serviert, allerdings war auch nicht viel los. Das Personal ist teilweise noch neu, da gibt es etwas Luft nach oben. Aber alles in allem, kann ich das Restaurant für ein ungezwungenes Abendessen empfehlen. Hauptgang mit einem Glas Wein unter 20€ ist auch für den kleinen Geldbeutel erschwinglich.

    Nice food, that arrives very quickly at your table. The problem is before that part, when you try to order: Insufficient staff destroys the experience since you're just focused on getting a waiter to come to your table...

    A great place for lunch and we've been here a few times. Safety precautions are in place to keep social distancing. Food is always good, however, we had to ask for a couple of things a few times as staff were forgetting to bring things.

    We ordered the sirloin we received a very thin steak that was super dry with a sauce on it. I would not call this a steak. It was dry and bland and way too thin. Our waiter was super friendly and nice though and the cheese cake tasted good.

    Best ribs outside of Memphis I have ever had. Sauce had some extra spices that added a whole new flavor. My wife had a smoked salmon salad that she loved.

    Great place for beer and good food!

  • 3/5 Anna I. 1 year ago on Google
    Good food, but service leaves much to be desired. We wanted to try francesinhas, and were recommended to visit this place. We liked the food, but unfortunately after mentioning 3 times that I don't want to have an egg on my food, it still appeared.. I understand they probably have them precooked, but I was told that they can serve it without the egg, otherwise I'd ordered something else. So naturally I was a bit disappointed. The sandwich was good for what it is.

    Overall ⭐⭐⭐ the restaurant is very spacious and they offer many dishes to try. Francesinha 🥪 ⭐⭐⭐⭐ I have been in porto and the francesinha of Dote compared to the one I tried there was good! Maybe a bit too much of ham but very good indeed! One is enough to fill most people. Pork ribs 🍖 ⭐⭐ Unfortunately we were not satisfied with the ribs. The ribs got to us not hot at all, probably they were prepared before and only afterward heated up. The sauce on top is too sweet and doesn't fit completely with the meat. Is not exactly bbq and is too liquid. Service 👥 ⭐⭐⭐⭐ For the people the place can hold the service was extremely fast which is both nice and make think 🤔.. Atmosphere 🛋️ ⭐⭐⭐ The place is welcoming and clean, maybe a modern style would fit better the menu but not here to judge 🙌

    Portugese food is so good and and Dote does not let the side down. The friendliness and professional service of staff also helps make for a fantastic experience.

  • 1/5 Kim S. 1 year ago on Google
    Extremely slow service, several of us did not get what we ordered and the steaks were cooked to death. We waited 30mins to get seated even though the tables were free and it took another 30mins for them to come and take our orders. When the food finally arrived it was the wrong dishes for some of us and they did not care to correct it.

  • 1/5 David L. 1 year ago on Google
    Kind of surprised that this is such a popular place and was really busy when we left around 930pm. Was recommended by our hostel as authentic and good Portugese food. Honestly, the food was awful,the service a little better and overly expensive. Party of six. Ribs were ok, tropical smoked chicken was very dry, as was the tuna. Hardly authentic, poor value and can't recommend.

    I always heard about Portugal, that its food was wonderful, I spent a few days in Lisbon and I was able to prove here that the food really is divine, the service was excellent. The atmosphere and ambience of the restaurant made my vacation even better.
