Food Scene
We joke that we bought the flat because of the proximity to this restaurant! Great food - fish based - great cocktails and good house wine. We love to sit at the counter.
NO reservations so go early and get a drink from the window and wait for a table. You won't regret it!

Like mom cooks - if your mom is Portuguese! Simple, well prepared food in a tiny restaurant. Get there early b.c it fills up fast and the wait for a table can be long.

In the Pharmacy Museum and at the Santa Catarina lookout over the city. Worth it just for the view - but stay for the food. Also - they don't close after lunch so if you missed lunch and need a bite to eat - stop by here!

This place is fabulous! Make a reservation (it is 50 meters up the street!) as it is always full of locals. Small sharing plates and great vegetarian and non-veg options! The chef is a lovely Master Chef Portugal winner! Enjoy!

Need a break from all the bacalhau? This cute little shop around the corner has great South Indian food. Take-out is available if you want to just kick back in the flat after a long day of walking. Have a drink at the bar while you wait for your order.

FADO! If you are going to go listen to Fado our wonderful co-host Mafalda, who lives full-time in Lisbon, says this her favorite place. The music doesn't start until 11 - but you need to show up early to get a seat - or eat there before the show. NOTE: They are currently renovating their normal location and are now at: Rua de São Mamede, 8 A
