Lisbon guide

Best Restaurants in Lisbon

A curated guide to the best restaurants in Lisbon — from iconic local institutions to under-the-radar spots worth crossing the city for.

Where to eat in Lisbon

01

Cervejaria Ramiro

The best seafood restaurant in Lisbon — possibly Portugal. The tiger prawns, percebes (goose barnacles), and the steak sandwich to finish are legendary. Queue from 6pm or book ahead. Don't skip the prego.

02

Belcanto

José Avillez's two-Michelin-star restaurant in Chiado. The 'Garden of the Goose that Laid the Golden Egg' dessert is theatrical genius. The tasting menu is a journey through modern Portuguese cuisine.

03

Taberna da Rua das Flores

A tiny, reservation-free wine bar in Chiado serving market-driven petiscos. The cured meats, canned fish, and roasted octopus are outstanding. Get there at opening — it fills up fast.

04

Time Out Market

Not a typical food court — every vendor is selected by critics. The ceviche at Henrique Sá Pessoa and the steak sandwich at Café de São Bento are standouts. Go at off-peak hours to avoid the crush.

05

O Velho Eurico

A neighbourhood tasca in Alfama serving massive portions of traditional Portuguese food. The bacalhau à brás (codfish with eggs and potatoes) is comfort food perfection. Cheap wine, warm service.

06

A Cevicheria

Chef Kiko Martins' Peruvian-Portuguese fusion with a giant octopus sculpture on the ceiling. The ceviche is bright and zingy and the pisco sours are perfect. Book ahead — small space, big demand.

07

Ponto Final

Cross the river to Almada for this waterfront restaurant with Lisbon skyline views and €10 fish plates. The grilled sea bass and the view of the 25 de Abril Bridge are equally spectacular.

08

Solar dos Presuntos

A Lisbon institution since 1974 serving the best Northern Portuguese cuisine in the city. The presunto (dry-cured ham) is carved tableside and the bacalhau com natas is a religious experience.
