The bread and olive oil was good, and salad with goat cheese was fresh. It was a very convenient spot as it was past 10pm, in Bairro Alto, with vegetarian options...wifi was a plus! The owners were very friendly and waited until the very last minute possible before closing. They continued cleanup and allowed us to chit chat...greatly appreciated!

Mesón Andaluz ended up being a really lovely experience for us…read more The service was thoughtful and kind. My mom has a stomach condition and wasn't able to eat much, and the waiter didn't hesitate to prepare simple boiled potatoes for her. It wasn't a big production, just genuine care, which meant a lot to us. He also shared details about their olive oil, which was excellent, and even sent me off with a small wine souvenir. The paella was delicious, and the inside of the restaurant is cozy and welcoming. We left feeling taken care of and happily fed. Would definitely recommend, especially if you value warm service as much as good food. Scallops were delicious.

The oysters, scallops (fav), and shrimp were all great. The last dish, beef tongue, was also enjoyed. I know I'm not being descriptive, but I don't remember the components of each dish. What I remember was that it was all good. You'll just have to try it yourself. Cash only.

They were so nice and everything was so perfect. I was a solo dinner who was befriended by a couple having dinner and we just chatted ate and drank the night away! I literally want to plan a trip back to Lisbon JUST for this place! It's is a very small establishment with lime seating, hence needing reservations in advance. It's dimly lit and so cozy. I can still taste the beef in the mustard sauce all these years later!

Cantinho Lusitano was amazing!!! It was one of the highlights of our time in Portugal…read more I originally heard of it through a friend's friend's Instagram and checked the website. I saw a previous review suggesting to make a reservation and I completely agree. You MUST make reservations to ensure a table. I emailed them 1-2 weeks before for a party of 8 and there are only about maybe 18-20 seats inside. You feel a sort of exclusivity when people without reservations show up at the front door (which you can't actually open from the outside) and are politely notified that they need to make a reservation. // Food They were out of a few items but we mostly got at least one of everything. Our group hasn't had Portuguese food before so nothing to compare there but overall tasted great and we tried vinho verde for the first time! I'll let the pictures speak for themselves. // Ambiance Felt like you're eating inside someone's home kitchen. Quiet inside and homey // Price Stuffed with food and plenty of wine came out to about $23 a person, such a great deal! // Service Great! The server was very friendly and helpful. Our group is from America so you do have to get used to there only being 1 server for everyone compared to in the States

Now for a must go to place...we went twice and didn't book, but it is tiny, 12 tables or so…read more The reviews sounded good, with good reason we discovered. A chef and his parents serving and at the bar. A limited menu but with enough choice. A good selection of wines and after dinner drinks He spoke excellent English and was incredibly friendly and helpful with our choices Visit 1: only a handful of people in. We decided to get 4-5 tapas between us - he came out of the kitchen and said that it was too much (when did that ever happen?) and suggested some changes and to cut a dish...ok we said, it all came...and it was still a lot!!! We tried a few different glasses of wine with the meal; after, we tried a couple of ports with his help. All in €56 - incredible value It was like being in your own house with your own chef...bizarre but really nice Visit 2: we didn't mean to go there but eat nearby...the place we chose originally was full; the place opposite tried to entice us in but there was another 30+ minute wait...we thought, let's just go round the corner We got a great welcome and it was quite crowded. Just ordered a couple of his serious hamburgers and a couple of glasses of wine...€33. Again, so well looked after Recommended ps: the first visit, I had inadvertently manage to tear a €5 note in two and drop half under the table...on returning, the mother rushed off and gave me the missing half back...that was nice pps: we talked with the chef about chicken piri piri - he said for the best in town, go to this street, not really restaurants just take aways and eat in the street, unfortunately we did not have the time...if anyone does go, please let me know...I think this is what he said, but I could be wrong...you would have to ask someone Pudim abade de Priscos Avalade, av da Igresa
