Where to eat in Lisbon

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
