I ordered guacamole for the table. The portion was small for $15. Chips were average. It was mediocre at best. Entree choices were eclectic. I ended up ordering steak tacos (2). They were absolutely tasteless. Other party members had average meals. This place is trying to be a high end Mexican restaurant with prices to match. Also, the owner(?) was not particularly friendly.

This restaurant is new and seems to be going through some fine tuning. That is my opinion. Many of the staff seem to be new and are being trained. With that said, the food was very good and they had many interesting drinks. The price was very reasonable and the food was brought out quickly. I will absolutely go back in a few weeks and try again.

We were a party of 4. Only 1 was able to complete their dinner. My entree of skirt steak was not a skirt steak. . It was some other cut of beef. I asked the server to confirm this was what i ordered and she said yes. Nobody came to our table to check if everything was satisfactory. Although we have been here before we will take this restaurant of of our list. Sorry.

Tackie my Greek friend just had a birthday. We were there at 3 pm smack dab between servings. I love the look of the restaurant inside. It was very quiet since we were the only ones there. My friend Joe frequents their other location so we traveled to check them out and have a nice meal. We had several waiters but our main one was a fine Asian young man who just graduated from High School. He did a really good job and made our stay very pleasant. The first person to make our drinks was new and made a few mistakes which were quickly fixed. The Ice tea was fresh and very tasty. We enjoy the muscles and Clams and sausage. They came in an amazing sauce. The bread as good as it was, paired very well with the juices from our two appetizers. I got the seafood over rice, they got pork chops and eggplant Lasagna. Both looked good. We had a good time.
It was interesting that we felt that our meal was trimmed slightly. There was no salad served with the meal and the Creme Brulee was oddly thin. I think the restaurant industry is really struggling. Hopefully good places will be around for a long time.
The bathrooms were very clean. This is worth on Solid Star.
Thanks staff and manager...

I was taken here by a supplier on a work trip and it did not disappoint!
My host ordered the grilled octopus and Chourico a Portuguese (Portuguese Sausage) for appetizers and I got the stewed goat with potatoes for my lunch entré, and we had a white wine to go with our meal.
The grilled octopus was tender, but not overcooked, and really flavorful.
The Portuguese Sausage was as expected, a little smokey flavor, slightly chewy, and really tasty.
The stewed goat came recommended by my host and it was delicious. It came in a large pot with halved medium sized potatoes, some other small vegetables, and hunks of stewed goat meat still on the bone. It was a lot of food, but I managed to take it all down.
We opted to skip dessert, however the server brought us some sweet port dessert wine to finish our meal. When the owner stopped by to check in on us, he immediately took away our still full shot glasses or port, and brought an apparently more expensive bottle of port dessert wine and we all sipped the shot together.
The grilled octopus dish was $15, the Chourico Sausage was $17, and my entré was $28. Although the entré was a little more on the expensive side it did come with a lot of food.
All in all a great experience, I would be happy to come again with or without my supplier paying for me!
Parking: I came here on a Tuesday for lunch and there was plenty of parking.
Kid-friendliness: Plenty of space to bring kiddos. A little on the spendy side, but great servers , and environment for kids. Don't make a huge mess, it's not that kind of spot.
Wheelchair accessibility: Plenty of space to roll up or crutch on over.

If you're looking for an unforgettable dining experience for all the wrong reasons, Lisbon Cafe is your place. From the moment we stepped in, we were in for a culinary disaster.
First, the Paella. It looked like something you'd feed to pigs, not people. It was an oily, unappetizing mess that left us questioning if it had been made with any care or skill.
The Caesar salad was another disappointment. It was half-dressed and tasted bland, as if the chef had forgotten one of the main components of the dish.
The clams with white wine sauce were horrendously salty, making them inedible. We were left thirsty and dissatisfied, struggling to understand how such a simple dish could be so badly executed.
The bread was dry and tasted stale, and to top it all off, the plates were chipped around the edges, giving an impression of poor hygiene and carelessness. The utensils were deformed, adding to the overall feeling of neglect and lack of attention to detail.
As if the terrible food and presentation weren't enough, the owner was unbelievably rude. When we addressed our disappointment, he seemed completely indifferent, not caring at all about our complaints or our dining experience.
In summary, Lisbon Cafe was a complete disaster from start to finish. Save your money and avoid this place at all costs. You'd be better off staying home and cooking for yourself.

I don't know what was going on but I went this past Friday night and the tables were empty. There were no specials that evening and several dishes on the menu were not available. I was disappointed to say the least.
Let’s talk about 5 star service! Food is top quality and tastes fresh and amazing. Quality and quantity is there! Service is exceptional from all staff. You’ll catch the owner there often who is always trying to accommodate any situation or person. I just found this spot this year and ended up eating there a few times already and hosted my babyshower. Enjoy!!
One of my favorite restaurants on Long Island the food is just spectacular. Every meal, have done dinners and lunch have been just wonderful. You can tell the fresh ingredients that are used. The service is also on another level. The front of house staff just treats everyone so well. Ambiance is also beautiful. Just an overall great dining experience. Would definitely recommend.
This was my first time dining at Lisbon and it was absolutely splendid! The servers were accommodating and very polite. The food was delicious and out of this world! My husband and I enjoyed the great selection of liquor. Will definitely come back here again.
