    Stumbled upon Comptoir Parisian (French/Portuguese fusion cuisine) when we were visiting the area…read moreand was pleasantly surprised by their food and service. We came around 1:30pm, as hot as it can get in the middle of the summer so we decided to wait for a table to be seated inside. We waited about 5-10mins and were often updated with the wait time. We ordered 2 kids meal, chicken strips and fries in which my kids devoured them in no time, and also 2 fish soups, 1 salad and 2 entrees for 4 adults to share (as it was too hot and we weren't very hungry). The fish soup was delectable. It was rich in flavor but not overly creamy or heavy. Bouillabaisse is indeed one of my favorite and a must get while I'm in France. For their nicoise salad, the veggies were fresh and crisp, with just the right amount of olive oil and balsamic glaze on top. For entrees, we ordered the sea bass with ratatouille and rice. I was expecting nicely lined vegetables which don't happen but the sea bass was perfectly cooked with crispy skin, moist and tender meat that just flakes apart easily. My kids ended up stealing most of our fish. The ratatouille was very flavorful, perfect to be eaten with rice. The cod was one of their specials for the day and it was also perfectly cooked: moist and tender. Their service was very quick and attentive. Some people may not like it being too quick and specially in Europe but we like it especially when we didn't want to spend too much time eating and more time for sightseeing. The only complaint is the AC is a little weak but this is common in most of the places in Europe. Overall, food is excellent with superb service. Price was a little higher than other restaurants in Lisbon but it is expected given its location. We enjoyed our lunch and would recommend it to anyone to enjoyed French cuisine.

    Our family wanted French steak after many meals of fish. The staff was super friendly and helpful…read morewith the menus and details of each dish. The portions were large and rich with tons of flavor. The staff was fun and were silly with the kids helping to make the whole meal an enjoyable experience. It is in a small little lane off the main busy street with a wonderful view and ambiance. The truffle pasta was delicious as well as the French onion soup!

    Seating is available outside. We sat inside the small interior, with seats around the U-shaped…read morecounter. From there you can watch the finalizing touches of the dishes. I wouldn't say it was an inexpensive meal. There is also a suggested tip that was added to the bill. We were given bread. It's not complimentary, and you can decline it. We started off with the razor clams, which had a flavorful broth consisting of garlic, olive oil, white wine, and fresh cilantro. The aged beef tartare was my favorite. The waitress went over the components, which included a torched egg yolk, before mixing it for us. Duck rice is an authentic Portuguese dish made with shredded duck meat and chouriço, cooked in a rich broth. The one here also contained orange zest, which was refreshing. The dish as a whole was salty though. Overall, it was an enjoyable meal.

    Overall: 3 stars…read more Restaurant on the Michelin Guide near the Belem historical attractions offering larger plates of Portugese cuisine. I was quite intrigued by their menu with lots of fantastic options from razor clams and duck rice and could only subsample a few. I found the end of the meal quite frustrating as the staff charged my card using the wrong currency and then proceeded to mansplain to me, when it was clear to me that the charge was incorrect. While I appreciated that they did take the time to resolve it to avoid forcing a credit card chargeback, this situation was definitely not pleasant. (Bluefin Tuna: C) - I felt like this was three separate components that don't go well together, but work individually for the most part. The torch roasted baby gem lettuce and citrus is a delightful side salad to have. The reduction of peppers and garlic and onion is a good flavor booster. However, searing the bluefin tuna ahi style didn't add anything as the sear didn't add smokiness nor crispiness. Further, I didn't think the tuna fit well with either palette despite the individual components being good. (O Frade Salad: B) - Beautifully vibrant salad with lots of intricate complexity going on. I like all the different components of the salad, from pumpkin to pickled onion to pickled cucumber to mustard seeds. The combination offers a refreshing and large accompaniment to the meal.
