    After leaving JFK 8 pm Tuesday night, I ended up at Lisbon Marriott at 10 am. Rooms are not ready…read more(of cohrse) and in lieu of dinner, ended up having breakfast at the Citrus, 1st level at the hotel. The breakfast buffet was €24. Lot cheaper than Hawaii for sure. The buffet comes with a generous assortment of freshly baked breads. They were still are still hot from the oven. Lots of national dessert called pastel de nata. I ate at least four and probably will not be eating too many of those in the future. Around the breads, had make your own pancake station, bacon, sausage links, scrambled eggs, potatoes and the usual breakfast items. The bar area had chilled sprinkling wines and juice stations. You can also order coffee and such as part of the buffet. My coffee was excellent. To the back had cold cuts and fresh fruits. Not to forget, omelet stations also. The service was good, the food tasted great and everyone was very friendly friendly. 12% tax for food. Yikes

    Our only disappointment while staying at the Marriott was the Citrus Restaurant. Although the…read morebreakfast buffet was large and attractive looking, it was rather expensive and we just wanted something smaller. We told the server we'd like to order from the menu; it took awhile for her to return to actually give us menus and take the orders -- 30 minutes later our food had not arrived (it was only omelettes). We joked amongst ourselves that they must've been waiting for the chickens to finish laying the eggs! My husband got up to ask our server, who hadn't been past our table since taking the order, if we could get our food and she looked perplexed. When she then brought the plates to the table it was obvious that all four dishes had been sitting on the counter in the kitchen for a long time -- the hash browns were cold and congealed and the eggs were rubbery and cold with a strange flavor. Two of the four omelettes were even the wrong combination of ingredients! We ended up walking out and the manager apologized and said our room would not be billed; I think they should've offered us something from the buffet at that point. I suggest you don't bother with it unless you want the $25 buffet; and I can't really comment on the quality of what was on those platters either. There's lots of great options in Lisbon for breakfast, choose one of those instead.

    We went to this tapas restaurant because it is across from our hotel and we are really glad we did…read more We had shrimp basted in garlic butter and capers. 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.
