    Dessert of strawberry "soup"
    Keren A.

    The ambiance here is a solid 5 and reason alone to come here!! The staff is great too. We had two waiter's and they could not have been nicer and attentive. The food: my dish of cod and chick peas was amazing. At first glance, I didn't think the fish was cooked all the way through, but it was perfect. Flaky, buttery and salty. My son really enjoyed his food and dessert. My husband on the other hand wasn't crazy about his lamb. He said it didn't taste like lamb, it had a peculiar taste to it and he didn't think it was a lamb, but maybe a kid which has a completely different taste. I am not a fan of lamb, and I did try it too, and have to admit it's funkier then I have tasted in the past. At the end, my husband said it was the best tasting €40 something tasting potatoes (which came with the dish). When the guy came over to clear the table (not our waiters) he asked how was everything and my husband told him the better lamb was not my favorite or maybe something like, I've had better. He then asked what he meant by it, and my husband told him, I don't think that was lamb-to which he shrugged and walked away with the dishes. Ok?? So, when our waiter came and asked for anything else like dessert or coffee there was no mention of-hey they told me you didn't like the lamb, nor did my husband mention it again, because once said should have been enough. Well, we got dessert paid and left. Aside from that, all was pretty good.

    Probably one of the most amazing restaurants I've been to so far in my life. This restaurant has some of the most amazing views. Granted it's a hike to get to the top, but the food and views make it worth it. The wine list is extensive and the recommended wines were off the charts. Portugal has some amazing wines but I do not know much about them, so I always ask for recommendations. The service was amazing, our glasses never went dry and empty plates were picked up as soon as we were finished. I wish I could give this place 10 stars. If you're ever in Lisbon, this place is a must try.

    Unbelievable experience! This is definitely a special occasion restaurant and is worth every penny.

    We chose to spend 2017-2018 New Year's Eve there. One of the best views of the city, all tables overlook the castle and decorated rooftops of Lisbon. We whose the tasting menu, each dish accompanied by wine. We started with an amazing crab soup, the fish dish was cod and meat dish was beef in a pastry. All well cooked and impeccably presented. Wine pairings were appropriate, smooth and well matched to the dishes. We finished our meals with 10-year tawny port wine, champagne and traditional pastries for the holidays. (See photos for water mouthing visuals...) At the end of the night, we had the chance to meet with the owners. Absolutely lovely individuals, with love for good food and wine. Adventurous and traditional, a philosophy that is reflected on their food. They made sure all their guests had a wonderful time, and we were delighted to start 2018 on a positive note, with exquisite food, great wine and fun conversation, enjoying the fireworks of Lisbon. Happy new year!!

    This restaurant needs more hype! When we first got here, we thought their entrance were somewhere at the bottom and had to take a lift for the restaurant to get the view. Didn't know they just open at 19:00 for dinner, they just need to fix their hours online/Google. We were greeted by a lovely host and seated us. Our view was spectacular at night, our iPhone cameras didn't have the capabilities to capture the view at night without having the glare from the mirror, but that's ok it's in our memories. We first asked for water since it was a hike to get here, I refused to get an Uber since I thought it was walkable. Menu in English follows after Portuguese. Ordered a starter/share, was bread with diff spread, we loved their crab pate - so delicious. Then we also had tiger prawns, my husband loved it since it had the fat. For our main, I had the sea bass with rice, yummy. My husband had the foie gras with steak, another delicious meal. Then for desert, we opt for the warning desert which tasted like s'mores without the chocolate, it was really good. For cocktails, we asked the wait what he recommends or what he likes to drink from the bar, he came out with whiskey sour with white eggs- it compliments the whiskey taste. It was so good! Then 2nd cocktails was so refreshing, it was rum with pomegranate. So so good!

    Skyline from Lisbon with a close at Castelo de Sao Jorge - the best!!!

    I think the first time I tried piri piri chicken was just a few years ago in London at a hugely…read morepopular chain, Nando's. It's rotisserie chicken doused with a spicy hot sauce so what's not to like? I knew it was a Portuguese-originated dish, so I looked for a place famous for it. Here on a Sunday evening, there was quite a queue extending up the cobblestone alley, so I realized this must be the place. Although it was at least thirty people deep, it didn't take more than twenty minutes for Jamie W and me to secure a table upstairs. It was a homestyle dining room set-up that hovered between cozy and crowded depending on the fluctuating volume level. Interestingly all the servers were male, and while ours was the most junior, he consciously followed the behavior of his veteran brethren. There was no question about our main course, the 13,5€ Frango Assado No Espeto (Roast Chicken on the Spit) (Photo 7). It was tender and succulent enough albeit a bit under seasoned, all the more reason to pour a liberal dose of the piri piri sauce (Photo 8). Our sides were simple but shareable, the 3,2€ Batata Fritta (French Fries) (Photo 9) and the 4,3€ Salada Mista (Mixed Salad) (Photo 10). Both were fine, though we really wanted to try their Cream Spinach. They were already out of it in the kitchen. We were quite satisfied nonetheless, and their service pretty much worked like clockwork. Jamie and I agreed we'd definitely come back if the passion for poultry strikes us on a return trip to Lisbon. In the meanwhile, I'll just do a run to Costco, buy a rotisserie chicken, and dream of Portugal. FOOD - 4 stars...succulent poultry with a unique spicy kick AMBIANCE - 4 stars...like an old-fashioned dining room in a Portuguese home SERVICE - 4.5 stars...they move quickly and courteously TOTAL - 4 stars...a Lisbon institution worth checking out RELATED - Exploring Lisbon?

A small line of one or two groups at a time formed throughout the night. We were seated outside and there was a street performer with an acoustic guitar - def added some great vibes to the night. It was a chilly December night but the heater provided *just enough* warmth. We ordered the codfish cakes which were alright - nothing too special. Since it was a little cold out, I also ordered the chicken broth. It was bland, but good in its own way. There was some rice and chicken bits in it that tasted really good. The rotisserie chicken that they are known for was EXTREMELY salty. We were a group of 6 and ordered 2.5 rotisserie chicken (so 5 pieces) but this was actually way too much. It's a little better (but still salty) if you don't eat the skin, but that's the best part given how crispy it was! I tried to drown out the saltiness by using the piri piri sauce and it helped a little bit... but biting into the chicken meant biting into the undissolved salt bits. Given how salty it was, we could not finish it at all and left behind 3 pieces. Service itself was meh. They made sure to inform us that the tip was not included in the bill.
