This was described to me as looking fancy, but being super casual. We went with it, and it does give off an upscale vibe. You have to buzz the door to get in (don't be confused with the tapas restaurant next door). Be patient and someone will come! Try to get a table looking out the window, for really nice views. The food was really good, fresh and cooked perfectly. The amount of food is small, but it's delicious. The service is outstanding. read more

The food was creative an delicious. The view was beautiful. We ordered a la carte because the tasting menu looked like too much food and also included some things we dod not care to eat. The service was competent. We thought the portion sizes were a bit on the small size for the price, but overall a nice experience. read more

Tried to get in earlier in the week but they were full so made an alternative reservation a couple of days later. Rocked up at the appointed time, rang the bell to be admitted (odd but whatever) to discover there were two restaurants. Elegant hostess advised that upstairs was fine dining while downstairs was a more informal tapas experience. Taking our garb into account we all agreed we'd be more comfortable downstairs! We were not disappointed. Really excellent food in a surprisingly quiet dining room complimented by a very good Pinot Noir from the 'house' list. Service was swift, attentive and knowledgeable. We ordered 6 various dishes between two of us. Far too much - be warned - but each one better than the previous dish. Probably our best dining experience in Lisbon. But what's with the locked door, guys? Not gonna get much passing trade that way. read more

Very limited menu. Be sure you read menu before you go. Service was quite slow. One meal was ok but the cod was really not very good. The view was lovely but I would not recommend this place. read more

My sister and I rushed here for lunch but I think next time, I'd give it a miss. You have the option for a fixed price 3 course meal (starter, main and dessert with coffee, plus drink of choice) for a steal at €12.50 - but by Lisbon standards, it's quite pricey. Service was ok but the waiter seemed a little run off his feet (there were about 10 of us he was looking after). We chose to have salad (typical Portuguese salad, lettuce, cucumber and tomato with salt, vinegar and olive oil dressing) as a starter and along with the main (a meat and fish course combined) was perfectly filling, however given the reputation of Tágide, I was honestly disappointed. Perfectly seasoned but a little lacking in imagination. Maybe next time ordering a la carte would be the smarter choice? read more

Tagide is a perfect place for views (especially on the upper level at lunchtime )and to soak up the live music. Pricing wise is quite proportional to the level of service that you may get here. read more

Great place to refresh with some tapas and libations. Excellent menu and service. We arrived into Lisbon on 20Feb and discovered this place in the Michelin online mag. Mohammed and his team served us lunch right before they closed for the afternoon and he/they were wonderful! Thank you! read more

After loving my experience eating at the tapas place that Tagide owns next door, I was super excited to eat at the main restaurant. The pros: -Nice ambiance with view of the water -They gave us a complimentary course, so that was a pleasant surprise The cons: -The food wasn't as good as the cheaper tapas restaurant owned by Tagide next door. -I felt the dishes didn't justify the prices -Waitress was accommodating but slightly short with me. For instance, I asked if my friend and I could sit at the open table in the corner. She just said, "no." No explanation or anything. It just surprised me. read more

After a long day at the conference with meetings, presentations, net-working, writing and everything else that comes with international science meetings we headed off for a quiet evening at Tágide. In normal fashion per myself, reservations for this restaurant was done before I even got on the plane at Arlanda (Stockholm, Sweden). The restaurant caught my interest with their honorary mention in Michelin's White guide and rather positive reviews beforehand. The fun thing is that if you don't know of its existence and/or location, the odds of just walking past are quite high. Instead of actually seeing a restaurant, the only thing you have is a black door. Inside the door is a rather empty hallway, but take a short walk up the staircase with white walls you enter a lavish room with high white ceilings, windows from the floor up to the ceiling overlooking the beautiful square below. It is that classical feeling of "wow" that just gets you because it is nothing what you expect. Our company was seated at a round table near the balcony overlooking the square so we had an amazing view over both the dining area and outside where the sun was setting in the bay. Before I get into the food itself let me first say how positively excited I was about the waiter. He was friendly, attentive, nice while still down to earth with just the right amount of personal touch - just about everything I expect but rarely experience. Hat's off. The food then. For starters I had a Tágide classic, the spider crab soup served with crispy parmesan tuile's. It was rustic, rich and beautiful in flavor. To this I had a white vine which was excellent. For main I had a braised lamb shank that was utterly divine and succulent, just melting in my mouth. It also had some braised turnip greens and sweet potato. Oh my. As always, a dinner must and on a sweet note. Although for me, I prefer desserts not overly sweet, it needs to have a variety of textures and components to get a perfect balance with sweet and sour. This was very well achieved with the chocolate fondant tartelette that was a bit sweet and rich with crunchy pastry. Paired with red berries and the champagne sorbet it was a match made in heaven. We sat there a while after dinner just enjoying the place, sipping on our wine and we had another cocktail before we left with happy stomachs all around. Well worth a visit and your money, without a doubt. read more

Tágide - Modern European Near Me - Lisbon, 11

We went here for one thing: pasteis de nata served warm with cinnamon iced cream, and it delivered! The pastry and filling were both well-made, and the cinnamon iced cream was the perfect pairing. We felt guilty ordering just dessert, so we also got the iberico ham and azeitao cheese plate beforehand. It was also quite nice, though I liked the cheese better than the meat. We've also already had a lot of good iberico ham during our trip, so it would have taken more to make it stand out. Regardless, we got what we came for and the service was excellent. I'd go back if I had the calories for another round... read more

This was my worst dining experience in Lisbon. Truly awful service and food. The venue is actually quite upscale and has a nice setting with a view of the river. The menu had a total of SIX items between the choices of entrees and appetizers. So for a family of 5 we ordered the whole menu and some items twice. To begin the bread service came with 2 flavors of Butter that was FROZEN SOLID. The appetizers were tiny and seasoned in a very odd way - as if someone randomly combined ingredients to see if they work. You would think that it's difficult to screw up raw scallops. The entrees were two fish courses and two meat courses. The meat was dry and way too salty (I love salt and savory foods in general) and the fish was floating in some dark goo that the waiter kept calling "soup". Our reservation was for 8pm and our entrees did not show up until roughly 9:20pm. I asked the staff to check on the food a couple of times and in response they nodded but obviously did nothing as I saw them move around the dining room. The restaurant clearly tries to present an upscale experience but it was highly mediocre food with poor service. Avoid. read more

Great location, view. Nice wine selection. I ordered the 5 item tapas plate and asked if it could be 100% vegetarian. My request was accommodated with what I can only describe as one of my best vegetarian experiences in Portugal. The padron peppers were blistered beyond perfection (a nice surprise considering they weren't on the menu). Finished with a vintage port wine and the Portuguese custard pastry with cinnamon ice cream which was AMAZING. Warm and flaky with the right amount of sweet. Yummmmmm. read more

Really good food, fantastic wines and charming service. An extra is the superb view! Dress nicely ;-)!!!

The place was empty which should have been our hint to turn around and walk out. Irritating staff to the point you wanted to tell them where to go!! Topping up fizzy water after every sip is not only annoying, but obvious that you're trying to sell another - which they did. The views were OK, was expecting better. Small, small tapas dishes. Difficult to share. Octopus was nice. I couldn't get out of the place quick enough. read more

The only reason why there are 2 stars and not 1 is because the Manager was receptive to our complaints and apologetic - offered us drinks and food at the Tapas bar downstairs as a gesture. Otherwise, the food was terrible (which is why we didn't ask for more food downstairs). I chose this restaurant for our last night in Lisbon because I had read reviews that praised the food and the views. While there were problems with the reservation, I had called to confirm earlier that day that we would be showing up. As if they had forgotten the reservation, my sister and I saw the servers carry a table across the restaurant to the far corner in the back by a bar (which normally would look like a dance floor if they held events). The view of the sunsetting over Lisbon sure would have been nice to see if we had not been shoved by the bar far from the windows. (This is a small restaurant, so shoving us away from the windows is quite a task.) On top of that, the restaurant was clearly overbooked. Two extremely large parties. The servers barely paid attention to my sister and I, to the extent that I had to get up and pour my own water. But the icing on the cake wasn't the lack of service or being shoved to the back of the restaurant, it was the TERRIBLE, inedible food. -fish and clams: the clams were good. the fish was overcooked, flavorless, and dry -foie gras on a microscopic crostini: is dressing some greens w/ olive oil and no acid what they call a salad? dish clearly needed some acid. instead, there was a cinnamon apple chip on the bottom of the greens which only brought out the iron flavor in the foie gras -- so much for subtly. not to mention, the foie gras had the texture of a unfried chicken mcnugget. -pork belly: good flavors. under cooked. -mint chocolate mousse: the flavors just didn't work. nice try at creating and playing w/ different flavors and textures, but that is an utter fail. if you had taste buds at all, you would not have plated this despicable mess. -praline: it was gummy. like over cooked oatmeal that had been sitting out. although, in their defense, perhaps it was! since the service was so bad!!! also the candied praline was soggy and not crunchy - but again, likely b/c it had been sitting out. This was a sad and pathetic mess. On the bright side, this really spearheaded my diet. PS. The décor is tacky and cheesey. read more

The view is breathtaking! This is a restaurant you can't miss is Lisbon. The service is excellent. The staff was very friendly and attentive. Extremely polite and kind. The food was prepared to perfection. The atmosphere is relaxing. Having never been there before, I was concerned it may be loud, but that was definitely not the case. We were all able to carry on a conversation comfortably. The interior of the restaurant is quaint and comfortable. I would absolutely recommend and visit again. read more

Upon finding this place online, I fell in love with a photo of their chicken dish. They refer to it as Guinea fowl but it's chicken with peanuts, coleslaw and leeks. Not only was this dish amazing but so too was the bread spread. I went alone and was able to get a table for 1 even though the place was booked. There is an amazing view available while you eat but I came for the food. Be sure to make a reservation. read more
