3.5 stars This restaurant was right below our hotel so we…read morehad to give it a try when we didn't want to go far. It's a cool concept! So many meats to choose from...some you have never tried before. I can guarantee that! I suggest getting the pick three menu. The Kobe and Bison are great but you will want to try something adventurous, right? Zebra? Alligator? The menu is for 2, so it's cheaper than you might think! Of course you should grab a house wine while you are eating. The menu comes with a big plate of fries, a big plate of fruit and sauces. You cook your meats on a super heated stone. They cook fast so pay attention! Cool experience if you are nearby and looking for dinner.

We stumbled into this wine bar looking restaurant on a late Friday night as they were serving food…read moreclose to midnight. First - the wine list is very extensive and if you are a) not Portuguese and b) not familiar with the Portuguese wine, the menu could be very well written in Chinese. However, the staff is helpful and will get you there. Did I mention they have very reasonable prices too? Now, the food. You have a menu that includes every kind of meat and seafood you can think of on this planet earth (including zebra meat). Here is how you do it: either order one of the pairs on the menu (i.e., chicken+veal) or match 3+ meat types, all of which will go on your fondue (aka bbq). Your choice of any meat will come with 6 different types of mayo, french fries and a giant fruit platter. They bring a set of appetizers while you wait for your grill and do pick up the octopus salad. Meat is fresh, delicious and it is so much fun to grill your own meat while enjoying a nice bottle of wine. We will definitely be back here whenever we are in Lisbon.

I hope this doesn't sound cheesy - but I truly don't have anything bad to say about this place…read more The food was delicious, and SO cheesy. The appetizers, and fondue were so Gouda! The Ambience and Service may have been even more impressive tho - mom and pop shop, with relics all over and a very clear love for what they do. If we didn't live across the world - we would be back!

We had a VERY rude waitress. She said she hated Vegan people when one of us dairy allergies. Then,…read morewent behind the counter and talked to her coworker and said, " save me from these people". And, proceeded to talk how she tried to send us to the vegan place down the street. I yelled and said, "we can hear everything you've saying" (which she became a coward and denied). We got up and left. Done with this place and Lisbon.

I share the views of various people on this list. Quite poor experience. The food was a far cry…read morefrom the delicious food you normally find in Portugal. Anyone could cook something more interesting than that. Also, WAY overpriced. We've lived in Portugal for the past 2-1/2 years and know, for example, that an Ice Tea costs around 1.50 euro. Found You will charge you 3.50. They do seem to be taking advantage of people (as another reviewer wrote). Finally, the restaurant has poor ventilation, meaning that when people fry their meat on the tables around the restaurant the place smells like a fast-food restaurant. The smell of fried oil sticks to your clothes! Definitely do not recommend this place.

Fantastic food, service and ambiance! Loved it all and would go back right away for sure.read more

I'm so incredibly impressed. I loved that this place was in the ground floor of our hotel…read more Frederico is the expert on hospitality. He is so kind. He will talk to you for hours and teach you about food and wine and culture and talk about the history of food and how it came to be in Portugal. I loved it. I learned so much. I aspire, as an American, to learn from and look up to other cultures. I feel very honored to have dined in a restaurant managed by him on our trip to Portugal. I'm going to recommend to our travel coordinator to add this restaurant to the Google map recommendations list because more people need to go to this place - they need more tables, more space, because I'm convinced this is such a hidden gem that should be exposed to the masses to enjoy! We visited several wineries and this restaurant had the best wine - bar none! The fish, a fish I hadn't tried before, was deliciously seasoned, falls apart with the fork, the creamy rice was just divine. I normally will never eat little cherry/grape tomatoes - ever - but the perfect bite of fish, creamy rice, and a tomato was... perfection. The menu is deeply curated; flavors - textures - wines that make sense. You can tell Frederico what you normally like and he 100% knows what wines he has that you will love. The tomato, orange, ham, salad, was absolutely balanced and delicious. I'm so grateful that our first trip to Portugal we got to meet Frederico and dine with these wonderful people who love food and wine as much as us. I'll never forget it as long as I live. You will not be disappointed. Promise.
