Delightful snack bar serving up delicious, cheap, and authentic Portuguese food! I stumbled upon…read morePica Pau while meandering back to my hotel after realizing that the restaurant I was originally planning to eat lunch at was closed on Thursdays. It was getting a wee bit late for lunch (~1:30 PM), and I was quite hungry, so when I passed by Pica Pau and saw how packed it was, I knew I had to drop by to give it a try. It's absolutely bustling inside; there are several tables inside and outside, and you can generally just seat yourself as long as there's an open slot. There are very few tourists here -- another great sign -- so the menus will all be in Portuguese, and it will be hit or miss as to whether your server can translate for you. However, the menu is pretty simple, so it's easy enough to intuit what they say (or to just use Google Translate) -- the menu is spread across three blackboards, one for daily specials, another for seafood, and the last for other meat dishes. Everything is just twelve euros for lunch, and it also comes with a drink and bread. You genuinely can't go wrong with anything on their menu. My mom and I both ordered from their seafood menu, and the fish is super fresh and grilled to perfection. It has a perfect char on the outside, and is super flaky and tender on the inside; they add a hit of salt and a side of lemon, but the fish honestly doesn't need much else. The fish also comes with a side of boiled veggies and potatoes, which are a great, neutral accompaniment to the fish. I ordered the swordfish, and my mom got the sea bass, but we ended up splitting both of the dishes between us (especially since they both conveniently came with two pieces). Both were phenomenal, but I did enjoy the swordfish a tiny bit more; it was a bit more tender, and they also descaled the swordfish but did not for the seabass, so it was a slightly easier eating experience.

She reccomended what and how many plates we should share, paired it with a great bottle of wine, and never let our glasses go empty. We sampled a total of 7 dishes between 4 of us and ate it family style. I can not recommend this amazing local establishment enough. Even if it means rearranging your day or trip to fit in a reservation, you will not be sorry! This will be my new staple on any trip to Lisboa

A solid locals' place. More like a diner than a restaurant…read more We started with 2 canecas de Super Bock (0.5 L) which we needed after walking around in the warm sunshine. We shared the lunch special of pork cutlet in a cream mustard sauce with fries. As we were the only customers we heard the pork being pounded out by the cook. It was good. The very friendly owner and I got talking and offered me a taste of hot sauce made by his friend from Mozambique. It was great! Lifted my head off. He then offered me a small bottle of it to take on my journey through Portugal. Who can turn down free hot sauce? Not me.

Meat patties were about average, they tasted fine and not overcooked. Not seasoned but the toppings and flavor choices enhance it all. Cheesy sauce with the onion rings was like a smooth velveeta style which I've really liked. They serve Super Bock beer! Decor is so cool, lots of retro 50s vibes. Excellent service too, they were very nice and so helpful. We are very short heights and the tables were so tall compared to the vinyl booth seating. Getting into the restaurant was a bit of a challenge. It's on the second floor of a large concrete building. Finding the stairs to get up was a little search. Then we had to take an elevator because my mom is in a wheelchair. The elevator is locked behind a glass anteroom, so we had to find the security guard (who was very nice & friendly) to let us up and then take the stairs down to let him know we were leaving.

It was good, but would have been great if it was more moist or had whipped cream or nutella inside. I liked the chocolate sprinkles and shavings that gave it lots of crunch.
