I cannot say enough good things about this wonderful restaurant. Our group of four ordered many different items from the menu, and every.single.food. delivered to our table was perfection. The woman owner of 20 years took our order and left us to cook everything fresh. We also saw her daughter working hard doing their food deliveries. The ambience is quaint and inviting with only about 7 tables. It felt comfortable like dining in someone's home. As we finished, the owner referred us to a fantastic Fado experience. What a joy to have stumbled across this local gem. read more

Beautiful food from this small spot in Bairro Alto. The night we wen there were very busy and though a three person operation, they did a nice job taking care of everyone. The food was exquisite, from the bacalao a bras to the duck rice to the octopus dish, meatballs with rice and the chicken with mushroom in pastry. All flavorful and made with love. Decent wine selection and outdoor seating. A true gem in the center of it all. read more

Small and cozy. The owner is super nice. Food is delicious and reasonably priced. Very welcoming and warming. Must visit if you're in Lisbon! read more

OK - I thought the restaurant two days earlier was small and narrowly packed. Now, think of that room, cut it in half and stuff twice as many mini tables into it - and here comes the Cheia de Graca. Located in a small side street off-mainstream, this restaurant provided attentive service, a cute environment and superb food. Just that it would not allow to sit there forever (nobody kicks you out), but there were mostly stools, and the absence of the back of a chair over time is a bit tiring. The Queijo Brie Gratinad (grilled brie cheese in honey) - wow - was unexpected and suuuper delicious. The Salada Pota, Pimentos de Padron, the Camarao, and the Dolce were all in all not specifically creative or unique, but yet very tasty and pleasant. They were to be shared on the table. And without delay, everything migrated from the happy taste buds to please the tired legs ... read more

This place was great for dinner. It has super cozy atmosphere! I am glad that we went here because it has bacalhau sampler with 4 different styles. It was great to not have to choose and to get to the and few different types. It's hard for me to give this place 5 stars only because I did not try any of the tapas or any other meal, also it wasn't the best bacalhau I got in Lisbon. None the less, I really enjoyed coming here and it's worth it if you're in the area. read more

Absolutely amazing experience. We had the chickpea salad with Codfish, shrimp and couscous with vegetables. It was like having a home cooked meal in the owners house. read more

Absolutely great place to be. Tiny place in Bairro Alto with great tasting food and very nice staff. Probably the best food we had in Lisbon so far. We had the Octopus and the Codfish, both were delicious. The place is absolutely great and a must when you are in Lisbon. read more

Seriously a hole in the wall. My coworker recommended this place to me, and I'm glad he did! The restaurant is cozy and the service is impeccable. As a solo diner I was welcomed with open arms. I ordered the house sardines, roasted octopus, and a glass of red wine. Everything tasted phenomenal - I was blown away at how perfectly cooked the octopus was. I'm seriously considering coming back for a second night in a row to indulge in the octopus again. Highly recommended, but not for large groups since there's only a handful of tables. I strolled in at 9:30PM on a Sunday and was seated right away (which was expected, but thought I put it out there). read more

Lovely little restaurant. Very small and quaint. It is decorated very cute. Me and my friend got fish and potatoes and salad. I remember the potatoes being outstanding. The fish was obviously good too. Everything tasted just like it was homemade by someone's grandma. Good prices and great service, I would recommend for a good date night! read more

I ascribe to the wisdom that a small, hole in the wall restaurant can at times be THE best restaurant. Lisboa Cheia de Graca, is such a gem and to this day I still think about the meal I had. We found this place by accident on our first day, and were lucky enough to find it on our second. The place is tiny, with small tables and stools. But, the staff is amazingly friendly and the food is fresh, full of flavour and delicious. I had the simple sounding Cod in Garlic in Olive Oil with potatoes and salad dish, which was nothing but simple. The garlic in olive oil gave the cod a burst of flavour that I can't even begin to describe. This is a MUST visit restaurant when you are in Lisbon. read more

Had an amazing dinner here! My friend and I started with the sausage board (the blood sausage is the best!), followed by duck rice (which was highly recommended to me by other friends that visited Lisbon) and the grilled octopus. Both dishes were delicious (we split them). We also had a bottle of green wine (Muralhas brand). We were stuffed after so we skipped dessert. The restaurant is tiny - literally 6 tables. Make a reservation or arrive early. Also, you will be separately charged for the bread/butter/cheese on the table if you partake so just be aware of that! read more

A very cute cozy restaurant with a friendly owner and delicious food. The Bachalau cremoro with spinach and shrimp was wonderful, as was the flan pudding. Apparently they have "happy hour" tapas, but I didn't try them. Go early, but bring cash! CASH ONLY! read more

So, this is the real deal in Lisbon. It's tiny and run by a fantastic lady who just absolutely makes sure you are happy with everything. We ordered the calamari salad (basically a ceviche) and meat/cheese plate (which had one of the best sausages we've ever tasted) as appetizers. Order the same, and you'll be thanking me later. For main dishes, we had the roasted codfish and the burger with fried egg. Both incredible. The codfish was so good, though, you'd fight someone for it. Garlic, butter, and just falling off the bone. Amazing!!! I cannot recommend this spot enough. Small, and be prepared if they're busy to wait for a minute, but you'll be glad you did. Also some delicious local wines for really great prices. In fact, everything here is reasonable. Have I convinced you yet?! What are you waiting for!? read more

Ok. Best octopus in Lisbon, period. Now - very small place ( hole in the wall - you miss it if you're looking the wrong way for 10 seconds), really cosy and romantic.very large portions, friendly staff and one of the best playlists ever (subjective). Great food. Recommended. read more

Cozy intimate atmosphere and excellent food. Sardine conserves and braised octopus were divine. The green wine is something else - effervescent and light, unlike anything we've tasted before. read more

Wonderful little spot in the Bario Alto district. The waitress and the staff were very nice and friendly. Order tapas for appetizer followed by strake. Everything was out of this world, beginning from the sangria. read more

Ate there twice. Great food and ambience. The service was good, and the menu has a lot to choose from.

A quaint shop that my friend and I enjoyed dinner at. When we came we were the only ones there. The place is not very large and is cozy. Please note that though there might be bread on the table, it's not complimentary, everything is for purchase! The standout dish were the garlic prawns. They were so flavorful that my friend and I still talk about it months after. I would go back to eat those garlic prawns the next time I'm in Lisbon! read more

We loved our stay! They also have a really tiny restaurant just around the corner! There were only 6 tables, which made the atmosphere quite intimate and personal! They serve authentic potoguese food and we really enjoyed our stay! You should definitely visit this place for the "bairro alto - feeling"! PS: You have to try the selfmade goat cheese! It's amazing! read more

Best Portuguese Meal.... nice ambiance and quiet setting. Food was delicious and prepared with much flavor. I'm very happy we came here on our last night in Lisbon. I had the salted cod with roast garlic, roast potato and the garlic prawns. My husband had a meat dish with rice and egg. He loved his food too. Cash only restaurant!!!! read more

We ate dinner here several times. The food is very good and the service was excellent. We had tapas, the vegetarian bruschetta and other vegetarian items. Our friend had the octopus salad and the cod and loved it. The dining room was cozy and well decorated. The wait staff was friendly and we got to know them well. They gave great recommendations and great service. We definitely will go back when return to Lisbon. read more

One of the best meals we had in Lisbon. This is a very small hole in the wall type of place. You could easily walk by and miss it but it's one of the best restaurants in Lisbon. We had the chorizo with honey and the prawns and garlic appetizers. Wonderful start to the meal. The chorizo was especially tasty. Then we had the duck rice and the pork cutlet with chorizo dressing. The pork cutlet was exceptional. Very tender cut with a fabulous chorizo on top. Very special. The duck rice was very good! read more

Hidden little place but worth the search. The fish was cooked perfectly and very fresh. The vegetables crunchy and good. The chocolate cake a little dry but the vanilla ice cream very rich. Nice find and fun people watching read more

This place is a must if you are in Lisbon. A small, cozy restaurant with wonderful homemade Portuguese food. I got the menu de degustação de bacalhau and it was delicious. My wife got a chicken dish with mushroom sauce and some dough crust and it was equally delicious. Service was excellent. It is a very intimate venue with the cook in the back preparing some wonderful dishes. read more

Wonderful, but quite tiny little Portuguese gem in the hopping Bairro Alto neighborhood serves up delicious food paired with great regional wines. Ordered a rabbit dish with rice and it was fantastic. Service was very friendly and prices are very reasonable. Will definitely recommend this place but not during the busiest hours or you'll be cramped. read more

Fresh instead of frozen food, like the cream codfish, or the spinach codfish and even the duck rice, would be way better. You guys should try to cook instead of microwaving and asking for a bunch of money. Ohh and invoices. Those would be great as well, since we're paying the local tax ;) read more

My least favorite so far in Lisbon. Plenty of other restaurants with much better food. Service was good, but the pork was not! Would not go back... read more

This place is awesome. Super small and quaint with impeccable service. The texture and seasoning of the octopus carpaccio was perfect. The "chorizo" combination included blood sausage, which I've never liked, and it was amazeballs. Shayla, the owner, was as accommodating as can be. Do yourself a flavor. Go there. read more

Extraordinary food in a hidden, cozy restaurant. There are so many delicious offerings -- multi-layered, complex, sublime dishes with tastes of chorizo, sardines, ceviche, etc. It's a tiny restaurant, and so so good -- get there early!! read more

Amazing food, amazing atmosphere, very warm and friendly staff. Only downside would be that it's not an ideal location for big groups. Other than that I have nothing bad to say about this restaurant :) read more

I was concerned because I had such an incredible meal last night in Porto. I went totally different than last night's sea bass and had meatballs with egg and rice. It was perfect and I enjoyed it immensely. My partner had the octopus and thought it was awesome. It's a lot for me to say...I'd come back. read more

Overpriced tourist trap !!! If you must, get the grilled octopus.

Great service and nice place. I ordered the sardine entree' and realized that the restaurant serves canned goods. The price was expensive too. read more

So pleased we chose to go here!! The food was authentic and fabulous and came out very quick. The atmosphere is great! Not for large parties as the whole place seats 18 in a very cute small space. We had the garlic sardines, roasted cod fish and creamed cod fish....all were fantastic!! Highly recommend for an authentic, off the beaten path experience. read more

This is a charming, tiny restaurant with excellent food and good, friendly service. We shared a plate of duck rice and a salad, and it was plenty for two.
