Two other things we liked was that the lighting wasn't over the top brite as it can be in some of the other resturants we went to and the music wasn't the "elevator" music other places play with bad renditions of older American hits. Very interesting with a staircase coming through the front of the room, we called it our Harry Potter restaurant under the stairs.

Excellent codfish! The meal began with complimentary rosé bubbles and a trio dip where one of the…read moredips was, I believe, beet flavored. It was a bit sweet and a delicious way to start our meal. The creme brulee was also the best I tried in Portugal. Excellent restaurant choice for dinner but you do need a reservation as it gets incredibly packed any night of the week. They also have a tasty wine selection. Will definitely be back on my next trip! Highly recommend: codfish (you can try it in the seafood trio or order just the codfish entree), creme brulee

Over all the dishes were beautifully-presented with excellent flavors. However, I found the fish stew to be too salty for me. At the same token, my cod and octopus dish was also a bit too sodium-heavy and octopus could be more tender. Maybe people like saltier food here but it just throws off the flavor balance for me. I would give them 5 stars for the service but cuisine-wise, it's still good but not quite hitting all the spots.

The choco frito had a light batter on top and you could tell it was really fresh because it was so light and bouncy. The bolinhos de bacalhau were also a highlight; creamy potato filling with codfish mixed in. The asparagus and jamon with scrambled eggs provided a nice balance to our meal. I'm always a sucker for well made scrambled eggs. My favorite dish by far was the arroz de pato. It was packed with smoked duck flavor, and accented with charred sausage and bacon on top. The dishes were on the smaller end, so we ended up getting 5-6 dishes for three people.

Our no. 1 fave : Horse mackerel in citrus sauce - dish was full of refreshing citrus flavor and dashi 2nd fave : smoked grilled pork leg in pumpkin foam w chestnuts.

Beef was very tender and does not have filler or gravy, topped w an egg. sweet potato chips on side. Meat tasted clean, not too salty , can actually taste the meat . Dessert: lived this not too sweet dessert, bursting flavor if passion fruit and Algarve orange. Was great to share among 3 people

We had the octopus salad, shrimp salad and the house couvert. The food was fair because the shrimp and octopus lacked the flavor we were expecting. So we were disappointed.

The fact that my husband and I got there before anyone else came, allowed us to have the most amazing conversation with the staff that works there!! Faysal greeted us and was very welcoming! As we ate dinner, Bernardo who is a waiter there, told us the history of the building etc and since no one else was there, we talked about our families and that he going to be a veterinarian...and that he has something else coming up that is going to be exciting. All through our dinner we chatted with him (as if we were having dinner at his house) and enjoyed every minute of the conversation!! It was the best part of the evening! We even got to meet Miguel the chef, and were happy to tell him his food was amazing! I can't recommend this restaurant enough!!! They only charge 19.60 euro for all you can eat!!!! I hope a lot of people read this and go to Rosa da Rua!!!

The restaurant was quaint and intimate , with a small buffet that easily fills you up. There were many options from a beef stew to a curry, a noodle dish with bacon, salad, and other options. They even explained the options to us. I truly wish we had more time in Lisbon because I would have definitely returned to try it again as the options differ nightly. I would definitely recommend this to all in Lisbon.

This was our first meal in Lisbon, and I have to say that it was a success. We had no clue of where…read morewe were going to have lunch and pretty much randomly dropped by Tascardoso. Everything from start to finish was absolutely wonderful. For my meal, I went with Açorda de Camarão, which is a bread porridge with shrimp. I jokingly referred to this dish as "Portuguese shrimp and grits". ;) The blend of flavors and seasonings was absolutely amazing. While eating the dish, I told my partner that I could eat this dish everyday and even twice on Sunday. In fact, the next day when were having having some trouble deciding on a place to have dinner, I was like let's go back to the place that has "Portuguese shrimp and grits". ;) If you are hungry, this is the place for you because the portions were huge for the price. After eating my Açorda de Camarão for lunch, I wasn't hungry again until well into the late evening - even after walking around Lisbon for most of the day. Another delicious part of our lunch - the grilled octopus. In my opinion, the octopus was perfectly grilled and seasoned with a chewy, but not too chewy, texture. I thought the prices were reasonable, especially considering the restaurant is located in a very touristy part of town. The restaurant has a nice outdoor dining area where you can enjoy your delicious food and wine while enjoying the hustle and bustle of Lisbon. I thought service was fine. Although our waiter was not the friendlies of characters, he wasn't flat out rude. When I visit Lisbon again, this restaurant (in particular the Açorda de Camarão) will definately be on my "must do" list.

Like most restaurants in Portugal you start with bread, cheese, and olives. The cheese was very smooth and the olives tasted fresh. I opted for the chicken plate and it wasn't too heavy but was jam packed with flavor. Service was pretty solid here despite the language barrier and I definitely would recommend Tascardoso to those who are nearby the area for an authentic Portuguese meal!
