Really great experience in this tiny restaurant. The food is delicately prepared, with original receipies and nutritious and fresh produce. The staff is really nice, the service is fast and the place is interestingly decorated! I highly recommend but also advise you to book in advance !

Great food and truly exceptional wine. Pro tip if you book through the fork you can get 50% off of the a la carte menu, which makes the price a little more reasonable.

Believe the hype - one of the best restaurants I have been to. Modern, interesting take on Portuguese cuisine. Excellent wine list. Decor is quirky yet chic and comfortable. Fantastic value, especially considering the high quality, plus the service is warm and accomodating. I might have to go back to Lisbon just to dine here again.

Optimista was a highlight of our last trip to Lisbon. The food is inventive and full of flavour, and the wine was lovely. The deserts were a real surprise too. Lovely place all round, super helpful and efficient staff. Would definitely recommend!

Great food, nice staff, decent prices. Defo try the desserts. Oh and there's a freakin UNICORN on the wall <3

A slightly upscale (without being pretentious) restaurant with a modern take on Portuguese cuisine. The space was renovated in a retro and tasteful way. The food was delicious, good portions and reasonable prices (at least at lunch time). And above all - how can you not enjoy a place called Optimist that features a unicorn on the wall?

Very nice atmosphere, attentive and friendly staff, food a tasty delight

Love the ambiance of the restaurant, not too big, excellent service. Interesting menu at reasonable prices. Terrific wines at very very good prices.

Extremely delicious lunch, can recommend it to everyone!

Great atmosphere and service. The staff was great and always ready to help. The oxtail croquettes were delicious. Our main dishes were also very good. Well done guys for the great service.

Excellent food and great suggestions for wine pairing. Enjoyed every course.

A great experience in every aspect. Wine, food and service 5/5. Goos Atmosphäre

Amazing time at Optimisma. If you love good tastes and a combination of ingredients you wont forget, then you cant go wrong. The owner, chef, and staff are all very attentive and courteous and show the outmost respect while maintaining a friendly fun environment. It is a very stimulating and provocative experience between each individual and the incredible plates put in front of them. Thank you for the experience and i cant wait until next time!

It was a fantastic night. The chef and staff were amzing and food was more than great.

Very good food (starter, main course and dessert) calm atmosphere and a great team (excellent staff)

An excellent gourmet meal in Lisbon!

Healthy food, unique flavor and delicacies. The service is exclusive and exceptional. My favorite in Lisbon
