My husband and I came here a few months ago. It was a fantastic meal, but I left unsatisfied - because although I was happy with my seafood dish, I had one bite of my husband's duck leg and was in heaven. I knew right away that we would have to come back the next time we were in Lisbon, which luckily was just a few days ago. I was thrilled that they still had the duck leg on the menu. We came with my parents this time, who both ordered the confit duck leg after hearing me rave about it. The duck was just as delicious as I had remembered, and I finally got to satisfy the craving I had had for 3 months! Hopefully we'll be in Lisbon again before too long so I can get my duck fix again! read more

This restaurant is on the small side, but they have another location down the street? I saw the host take some people there. We didn't have reservations, but were able to snag a seat by the entrance. They have sardine cans and brown paper with drawings on them as decor. My friend got a glass of wine and a beer while I opted for a lemonade. She also ordered some olives to snack on. For entrees, we shared the arroz do Mar and polvo assado no forno. I believe this spot won some awards. The food was pretty good! There was plenty of seafood in our dish and the octopus dish had good flavor. It was a good thing they take credit cards because we were low on cash! read more

The place is small, and you'll need reservations. The staff was very nice and attentive. We ordered two glasses of the house wine. My wife got a rose, and I got a red. I liked hers better. I also liked her salmon better than my duck. The duck was cooked nicely, but I would have liked more sauce because it was a little bland. The rice was very flavorful. My wife salmon was also cooked perfectly and I thought it was a better dish. We were seated near the back of the restaurant and it got hot since it was small and crowded. Although it was more private, I think I would have rather sat near the open door, for airflow. Probably should be three and a half stars. read more

Was hoping for an awesome experience after all the reviews but reality is that this is a decent restaurant in a very touristy area. Food is good enough and the service was excellent but despite the constant line it just didn't do anything special for us. Wish I could say more but this is more of a popular spot for out of towners. read more

I loved this dish. I only tried the sea rice but the portion is good enough to share between two not very hungry people. The rice is a little bit sour with some tang but it felt light and citrusy as well. The seafood was in good amount. Service was quick and tourist friendly. The restaurant felt cozy and welcoming. The walk up to this restaurant was also interesting with steps and vintage shops along the way. read more

Restaurante Duque - Prawns with Black Linguine - Portuguese Near Me - Lisbon, 11

First night in Lisboa, and this restaurant was rated on multiple sites as one of the best. Each of us thoroughly enjoyed our meals: seafood rice, lamb chops, grilled fish, and duck. The appetizers were equally good: loved the cigars, warm giat cheese rolled in phyllo dough with balsamic drizzle, prawns, marinated olives. read more

I did not have reservations, but since I only had a party of two, I think it was easier to seat us as walk-in. We arrived at 8 ish and the guy told us to come back at 9 pm. We were back earlier and he seated us as soon as there was an open table. Despite it being by the door, we had a great experience. Since we waited outside for a while, we already checked out the menu and ordered right away. Camarão Tigre 22€ - grilled tiger prawn with mango rice. The prawn was indeed large, which they cut in half. It was like eating a lobster, very meaty. The rice was too sweet for my eating partner's preference. Price 20€ on the menu was crossed out and 22€ was written instead. Polvo Assado no forno 16€ - oven roasted octopus. This is a dish I would order again. The octopus was so good. The caramelized onions and sweet potato made it sweet. Too much olive oil imo tho. Costelata de borrego 16€ - lamb chop with tomato polenta. Lamb was not bad, but I had really good lamb in San Diego too recently. It didn't compare. The tomato polenta was also a bit odd for me. Beer €5 I would come back to try the sea rice, which looks amazing in photos, and the "petiscos". Service was good and location is easy to find. read more

this was our last meal in Lisbon, and i'm glad we came here. We came here on a Saturday, and it opens up at 6PM. We arrived early since we didn't have reservations, but they told us the cooks were not ready yet, so we just wandered around and came back at 6pm. We wanted to end the last night in lisbon right, so we ordered a bottle of red wine. We also got some appetizers (bread with olives, croquette and octopus salad). As for the main entrée, we ended up getting the grilled octopus and the seafood rice. Everything was amazing and delicious. The seafood rice was very good, and packed full of different types of seafood. This place is very cozy and the service was good. This is what i miss most about europe, since a lot of places have limited seating, but have a homey feeling to it. Keep in mind, this place has multiple locations on the same street... not sure what the differences are, but the one we went to was located at the corner of the street. read more

A tiny restaurant on top of some serious stairs. I made a reservation for 4 for lunch. We got calms, grilled salmon, grilled tiger prawns, and sea rice. Other than the grilled salmon, which my kids loved, everything else was overly salty, flavorful but salty. Hence the 4 star. Service was prompt and friendly. Nothing to complain there. read more

There's about 3 Duque restaurants in the same block. The one we went had very nice exposed brick charm. I love the canned sardine artwork on the wall I forgot to take pics. Service is very nice, the food was amazing. The rice with seafood ( not to be confused with paella) was amazing. The ceviche bacalao was different, but very good, in Portugal I pounded there's 365 recipes of bacalhau! And this was amazing ! and a drink, of course is refreshing. It was a great find. Apparently they have live Fado Also during the week. Give this place a try you be happy you did! read more

Decided it was time to try Portuguese food.... or server made suggestions and all were great. The prawn appetizer was fabulous. The broth... oh my gosh, so good. The cod, pork cheeks and seafood rice were all great. Small place with great service. We went to the one down the street that was same company. Highly recommend. read more

Restaurante Duque was amazing. We had reservations but got there 20 minutes late. The place is hidden and we passed it up a couple times. I called and a server came outside and flagged me down. Hidden gem! We had a great time and enjoyed the Fado show very much. The place is quite small but it felt cozy and inviting. Everyone joined in with the singers. We had some tapas and cocktails that were delicious. I highly recommend Duque. read more

We stopped in for a late afternoon lunch and everything was fresh and delicious as well as reasonably priced. Ordered the Mussels and Ceviche as appetizers, along with olives and fresh-out-of-the oven bread( to soak in the mussel's broth-Wow!) Had the Tiger Prawns with black squid ink pasta, and Sea Rice for main courses and they were both incredibly tasty and filling portions. Very small restaurant but we only waited a couple of minutes to be seated as it was 2pm. read more

Looking at the other reviews, it may have been a mistake that we didn't order any seafood from Restaurante Duque. After having seafood for three days in a row, we were craving some meat. We had the Iberian Pork Cheek and Lamb Chops. Both were really great along with the sides, but there could have been some room for improvement in terms of flavor and texture (the pork cheeks were a bit tough). The dessert was not good at all. Our food here did not blow me away by any means, but I did enjoy trying the Pinta Negra wine. read more

Incredible value and great meal. A little hard to find via map apps, but we persevered and it was well worth it. I had lamb chops, my friend has octopus and we were both happy. We made a reservation for 7:30 but did not need it really. Filled up as we ended our meal. Go here if you are visiting Lisbon! read more

We were able to be seated although we didn't have reservations. Thank you! We came for an early dinner. The restaurant is quaint. Good vibes for sure!!!! Great and attentive service. For appetizers, ordered the olive plate with olives, cheese and olive oil. Soooo good, especially the cheese. For the main dish, I ordered the cod fish, and my friend ordered the steak. The cod was a tad overcooked and dry. The steak was okay. Maybe I'll have better luck ordering other things. read more

Amazing food and fabulous service. A must visit while in Portugal. Nothing disappointed. Love the open kitchen. Staff was very attentive.

Came here for our first dinner in Lisbon. We were over 20 minutes late for our reservation but they still accommodated us. Each dining room is small but they have 3 restaurant rooms located on the same block. Server was friendly and even gave us a free shot at the end. The house green wine on tap was refreshing and tasty. Lamb chops were cooked nicely and packed with flavor but chewy. The octopus was tender and perfectly cooked. Prices were very reasonable. Would come back here. read more

They have 3 separate restaurants (under 1 name) along that block so things move fast! Service was good. I got a whole sea bass - although the fish was fresh and it was tasty, I thought it was a bit under seasoned. I liked the sides (sauteed veggies + mashed potato) more than the main dish itself. And sangria only comes in half or 1 L - nothing by the glass read more

We just had a great dinner experience there Osso bucco was great along with chicken salad and bottle of wine Restaurant actually has several locations along the block all intimate and with local flavors read more

4.5 stars What a wonderful dining experience. The restaurant is a bit on the small side, so it can feel cramped with all the tables occupied, which will be the case. I had the Hotel make reservations as a precaution, and I'm glad I did. This place gets packed, but tables were turned over quickly. We ordered: Mushroom Risotto, Grilled Sea Bass, and the Bread and Olive Oil Vinegar thing. The food here is excellent. Probably the best mushroom risotto I've ever had. Plenty of menus in a variety of languages and decent enough house wine. read more

One of the top meals of my life. So many highlights. The blood sausage appetizer with seasonal jam was truly one of the best things I've ever tasted. The goat cheese cigars too. My husband had a beautifully prepared, huge prawn, and I had the most delicious, paella-like seafood and rice stew. The food was so good we went back a second night. Excellent service, eclectic decor and simply a wonderful experience. read more

Cute place with delicious Seafood! It was our last night in Lisbon, and we wanted to try a new place outside our neighborhood. I did a short search online and came up with Restaurante Duque, which was within walking distance from where we were. After climbing some stairs and a few hills, we arrived at the address listed online, but then they asked us to follow them a few doors down the alley after assuring us that they had a second location a few doors down! The restaurant is small but very cute and pleasant. What struck me was the average age of the crew there, including the kitchen staff. We started with Caldo Verde soup, White Fish Ceviche, and a couple of glasses of wine. We ordered Sea Rice and grilled Sea Bass for the main course. Everything was delicious, and the young crew was on top of their game. We had a good dining experience and rolled down the hills into our beds! read more

Highly recommend this restaurant! The seafood rice and octopus were amazing. The rice especially had a lot of seafood. They also kept our wine cold with a wine ice pack! We also tried their three fish dish; the salmon on it was amazing (wish we could have just ordered the salmon). Make sure to make a reservation using Google maps. read more

At a recent visit I ordered the pork cheeks with rice and was ill within two hours and days later. The pork did not look or taste fresh.It is likely that it was not stored or reheated properly. With that said the staff was courteous and attentive. read more

Went to Duque for dinner on May 5 2025. My wife likes the ceviche. Octopus is good but not as good as the one we had in Madrid. The Tiger Shrimp is ok, nothing special. Pork cheek came out delicious. Small restaurant - space is very tight. I would rate it above average. It just does not have the WOW factor read more

Make a reservation in advance. They have several locations on the same street and that might make it hard to locate whichever location you are mapped to, but they seem to share the same ownership and staff b/c if you do not have a reservation, they will try to set you up and whatever location has the shortest wait or best availability for your party size. This was pretty well organized/coordinated for what seems like a logistical nightmare, plus none of us speak Portugese, but the English speaking staff were able to assist and were very pleasant in doing so. All of the dishes that we tried were excellent. Some may say these places are a bit touristy, but we all enjoyed all of the various seafood dishes that we tried. There were not any items that missed and we must have had 7-8 different items, so you should be safe with anything you order. For the price, I thought Duque was a great value and you get a high quality meal and good portions based on the price you pay. The restaurant was visually stimulating with lots of cool little details inside, including the bathroom door, the ceiling beams, and the front door. Another thing to note, which I didn't see much of anywhere else, was there were women servers and minority servers. I did not notice that as much in other places, so kudos to that. read more

Great meal, great service, friendly, good prices. My wife and I both tried the goat cheese cigar and the sea rice and they were excellent. Also had the sangria which was also very tasty. Desserts in the jars were yummy too. Inside is small but cozy. I would definitely recommend getting a reservation if possible, we did, it was very busy and everyone had a reservation. If we ever make it back to Lisbon this will be our first stop. read more
