Once admitted we were seated immediately as the restaurant was only about half full. The menu was quite simple with just half a dozen appetizers and their main dish, seafood rice served for 1 or 2 people. The rice took about half an hour to prepare. It was delivered still bubbling a bit. The red tomato based soup was full of rice, mussels (some in the half shell), whole shrimp and not quite half a crab. The restaurant provided a shell cracker but the tiny forks for removing the crab meat from the leg would've been quite helpful. The rich tomato soup was the best seafood rice from our trip. We were also given a bottle of piri piri sauce and used about 4-5 drops at a time to add a little bit of heat and flavors to the seafood rice.

I was told by multiple friends, I must try their seafood rice and this place was well known for it…read more We did make a dinner reservation and would recommend it as this place gets packed. (FYI: lots of tourists) They only have 1 main which is their signature dish, the seafood rice. The rice is cooked in a seafood broth with a good mixture of shellfish like mussels, crab and shrimp. You can add lobster at an extra charge. This dish reminds me of paella, but with more soup? We didn't really get any appetizers but they do have a small selection if you want to add more to your meal. We had 3 people and ordered one main for the table. My husband is not the biggest seafood person so it was enough but if you have big eaters, then consider getting apps. The place is kinda small and cozy but not overly crammed together. The staff was efficient and warned me ahead of time how long it would take to make the dish.

Never had shrimp and capers together before but was surprisingly good! Hot figs with prosciutto, arugula and buffalo mozzarella was our second dish and was another pleasant surprise with this combination. So good. Our third dish was the pork cheeks with vegetables in a port wine sauce. The pork was incredibly tender and the sauce was fantastic. The food was creative and delicious. The service was very good and the staff was very friendly. We definitely recommend this restaurant as a consideration for dinner while in Lisbon.

English language menus definitely help, and so does an establishment that identifies possible food allergies. We made online dinner reservations here for our first night in Lisbon with high hopes of being able to make it til 8pm. HA! Luckily, they took pity on us when we showed up around 6:30. Servers were super friendly and helpful. I was so relieved when they greeted us in English - - my attempt at learning at least some Portuguese failed miserably. They sat us at a table right in the front window. They had a nice cocktail menu - - so we started with the ginjinha cocktail - - so refreshing. Nice sized menu with something for everyone. We ordered a few dishes to share - - all seafood and so delicious. Bathroom is in the back by the kitchen. No problem paying by credit card.

This place came highly recommended by not only hotel staff but also the Bolt drivers. Having had the chance to dine in I see why. This is a place that not only cares about curating a nice atmosphere, but goes above and beyond in service and food quality. It'll be one of the places I return to if I'm ever back in Lisboa.

BUT... but we really appreciate a restaurant that "goes for it". You know- tries something new and different in a well thought out way. Even when they don't knock it out every time, you can tell when a restaurant is really going for it. That's Leopold in a nutshell. When you walk through that door, which reminded me of Alice going through the rabbit hole, I feel like you're transported into the home of a world class cooking family. And they're cooking just for you. The ambiance was totally unique for me- formal, but still homey at the same time. Modern, but still warm and inviting. They get 5-stars simply for the creativity and audacity of their dishes. There was onion broth with poached egg, banana and cheese, bread sausage (but not the traditional kind), fish with couscous... It's all very difficult to try to describe so I won't try. Simply try them if you're in Lisbon and you'll understand. Walk through that little door and be transported to a different culinary world. Not to be missed...

It seats just a couple of tables and is run by a lovely married couple. The chef cooks in an open kitchen while his wife serves and explains the food. It felt like we were invited to a private dinning experience in their home. The tasting menu is incredibly innovative and oozes the chef's love for Portugal. Every dish came with a back story about the origin of the ingredients as we are transported to different regions of this incredible country. I took notes on all the dishes because the combination of ingredients were really unlike anything I've tasted. Beef with kelp, cheese and banana puree - don't sound like they would go together but my god it was magical. The best part about this whole experience is that it definitely won't break the bank. Make a reservation and I promise you will not regret it!

Other offerings are more standard: cheap beer, house wine, average sangria (with a weird taste, as if the fruits stayed in there too long) and grilled chorizo with lots of fat. Stay with ginjinha! :)
