    The service here was very good! The person who helped us spoke very good English and it made ordering a lot easier. The food was very good and priced on the cheaper end and I definitely want to come back here again!

    This place has an excellent brunch! One of the best our whole time in Europe. It was €11 per person for the Brunch special. It came with bacon, 2 eggs, yogurt parfait, fruit cup, salad, croissant, toast, ham, chorizo, cheese, coffee, and juice! There are lots of other smaller options too! Like other reviews have said they will let you sit for a long time and plug in a phone or a computer. They have books to read and board games to play. It is really lovely and relaxed.

    Lemon sugar crepe was really good....perfect crepes...

    We went back to try and have breakfast the other day here and it didn't happen. . They say they open at 11am but they were still setting up and told us to come back 5 minutes later... Eventually opened at 11:25..then she told us that they didn't open the kitchen till noon.. What is the point of saying you open at 11 but not opening till 11:25 and then not even cooking till noon.. She was rude to top it off. . We left and went to the Brick which has good food and good service unlike here...

    Pork sandwich (Bifana) was fantastic! Hamburger with Josephine sauce was excellent. Great ambiance and popular.

The restaurant was empty at 7pm but by 7:30pm it was very busy. The ambiance was jazzy and friendly, as was the wait staff who spoke English and were very helpful. Everything we ordered was delicious: the fish of the day - a white fish filet which was crumbed in hazelnuts served on mashed potatoes; baked cod; grilled octopus; and a very interesting vegetarian dish called Emotional Cabbage, which was a cabbage stew served on a huge amount of rice. The desserts were FABULOUS- Nata Goes Asian, which was very thin rice crackers that were drizzled with the traditional custard sauce of Portugal. It was a light dessert but very satisfying. The second was a brownie with vanilla ice cream which was also excellent. We ended the dinner with a complementary pour of a ruby port (brand unnamed). All in all, it was a fun casual dinner in a lovely restaurant. BTW, the restaurant is adjacent to the Hotel 1906. The decor was funky and like some of the names of the dishes, had a sense of humor, Prices were fairly reasonable. Definitely recommend.

    Exceeded my expectations. We stopped here on a whim during a downpour for a late lunch. Food was…read moreexcellent and so were the drinks. Service is what you can expect in Lisboa, a bit slower but that's the culture so don't knock it. Definitely worth stopping for a meal while you're in the city.

    OMG why are there not a ton of reviews about this place! As we were exploring the grass and…read moreneighborhood, walking up the hill to the lookout point, we came across this lovely restaurant house and a small hotel. We spoke with the server who indicated they would have lunch available till three and after seeing the delicious looking pan Asian menu we decided to come back after our walk. We are so glad that we did! It was a brisk but sunny day and we were able to sit out in a covered patio in the garden with beautiful plants and flowers all around. The server Was knowledgeable about the pan Asian menu, indicating some of the specialties from various parts of Asia. We selected a pod Thai dish which included black sesame and Julie and vegetables and was one of the best dishes I've ever had of that time. We also sampled some meat pastries, samosas, and a couple of salads. They also have burgers and other "American style" meals which also looks good. But the pièce de résistance was a salt and pepper chocolate cake which was one of the most delicious desserts I've ever eaten. It was a chewy chocolate cake dark but not better capped with sea salt and red pepper corns and was absolutely divine. We can't recommend the small restaurant and it's very menu enough to anyone who is lucky enough to be walking around Graca - And in fact if you are in Lisbon it is worth a bus or tram or even Uber ride to get there.

    Location: It's in the middle of nowhere and hard to get there? Screw this! This place offers you…read moresome really great food in 2 minutes walking distance of the best viewing points of the city. Service: Friendly and helpful. Cant say anymore. Just made me happy. Food Quality: For around 8 euros you get a really fresh burger. I had the veggie Burger, which was more like a sandwich, but had a lot of really great and fresh roasted vegetables on it. So I can't judge on the meat quality. But everything was totally tastey. And the potato chips have been really crispy and yummy. Not drowned in oil. This was totally worth the money. Additional hint for best view point in Lisboa: leaving the location turn left and on the corner sharp left. You know, when you have the view. This is also not so croweded by tourists like this strange chapel.
