33 Best Mediterranean Restaurants near Alges

“I recommend it for the food, from the steak to the Alaskan king crab legs. But be careful, on busy days everything can go wrong.
The times I've been there, it's worked out well, but with many customers the service level is low and known customers have the advantage. It could go wrong like it happened to me.“

“A great restaurant, well-prepared food, good atmosphere, five-star service, but... there is one thing, I advise, in addition to drinks, if you order water, ask for it from the tap, because you have to pay almost 3 euros for a bottle of water, 7 which is no more than the same as the one we buy in a commercial store for less than a euro the 6 liter bottle is a little too much
Otherwise it is a good restaurant, value for money

Parking: Free weekend“

“I’ve been there a few times and always happy with the end result- good food in my belly. Could have better prices as ingredients aren’t the ripest or the highest quality, but great for a quick meal or a slower meal- good atmosphere overall but the staff definitely very good, very friendly and attentive. There’s always room for improvement- but happy to go there again even though good alternatives in the area.

Parking: Many spots but time of day does influence availability

Kid-friendliness: I don’t remember child seats being offered but for the informality of the place, all is well.

Wheelchair accessibility: Cobblestone sidewalks but ramp to the place“

“We visited this restaurant and after a small setback, the staff were highly efficient and interested and everything was resolved.We ordered a prawn and cod stew on a bed of cornbread. Delicious and surprising for its softness and flavor. Açorda is simply one of my favorite dishes and this one did not disappoint.To finish, the puff pastry dessert with egg custard filling was also very tasty.Clean and very pleasant environment.We wanted to come back and we certainly will.“

“I recommend the pizza and calzone (good products, wood oven, thin crust).
Pleasant environment (Light and space).
Effective and kind employees.
During the week there are fewer people (many families with children at the weekend).
Good note too: there are no televisions!“

“Very good service and excellent food, we were there late and got served our dinner without problems. We promised to come back before our departure home but finally could’nt make it wich was a bummer since we enjoyed a lot the first time. Maybe next time!“

“If you haven't been to this place, you're missing out big time! Mushroom lover or not, you need to try this restaurant! In some dishes you don't even see the mushrooms, but rest assured, they are there. We tried a few dishes, my favourites were the perfect egg, the hummus, the risotto, and the desserts. Special node to the desserts, especially if you enjoy a bit of savouriness, definitely go for them. The restaurant has a very interesting character that is left open to interpretation and it's a good point for discussion. Overall a fantastic experience, definitely a must when visiting Lisbon. You won't find traditional Portuguese dishes, but you might find a new favourite restaurant!“

“Visiting Lisbon with my family from Boston. Came across this hidden gem while searching for restaurants on google maps. From the time we walked in we were greeted by friendly staff. We chose to sit out back, mainly because we had our two young sons with us. We ordered a caprese salad, minestrone soup, garlic bread, french fries, tomato bruschetta, 2 margharita pizzas and penne carbonara. My goodness! Everything was delicious and the price point was PERFECT! It was wonderful chatting with our server! Clearly everyone at this establishment takes a great deal of pride in what they do. I honestly would drive an hour to eat here again. It’s really that good! Hoping to stop by before our trip back to Boston!“

“Very good home cooking. A good place to eat a delicious Cod a la Nata. The place is small but we were lucky and there was a table for 4. The price is appropriate for the quality although it is not cheap, but a day of tribute is worth the expense.“

“It reflects the best positive reviews: dinner for three with risotto, fish soup and grilled octopus. Excellent flavors in good balance, quality in the food and courtesy in the service, shame that it is closed tomorrow, we would have gladly returned to taste the meat.“

“If you don’t eat here while in Lisbon you’re missing out. The atmosphere is perfectly set, tucked away from the major tourist areas of Old Town makes this feel more intimate and local! Staff are attentive without disrupting your meal, happy to give recommendations and advice (shout out in particular to our waiter Diego). The food is in the simplest terms - delicious. Some of the best meals I’ve ever had, we ate twice here as we didn’t feel we’d find better in Lisbon. The restaurant is a credit to all their staff, I’d give it 10 stars if I could.“

“This experience felt like a warm farewell hug to end my time in Lisbon. I stopped by at dinner time hours before my flight back home. I wanted to end my trip with a wine tasting and found this place on Google. I decided to try it based on the reviews. The overall experience exceeded my expectations. The owner was kind, welcoming, and attentive. I chose 3 plates I was interested in and he decided the order in which to serve them and what wine to pair them with. The flavors of everything were unreal. I might still be riding a little bit of a high from this experience. Absolutely stop by here during your trip.“

“We went there for dinner and it was honestly one of the best restaurants I've ever been too.

Nice vibes, small but spacious and wonderful staff.

The food was INCREDIBLE! We had the Tuna Tataki, Tuna Tartar, Ceviche, Shrimp Tacos as starters, the Miso Octopus and Scallop Linguine as mains and the amazing Caramel Lava Cake for dessert. Every single dish was perfectly seasoned and tasted awesome.

I would give a thousand stars if Google let me, and I'll definitely come back! ?“

“Food was good. Service friendly and quick. The impression was somewhat marred by the already very worn/used menu (laminated A3 format with marked dishes that are no longer in stock) and the handwritten invoice (amounts are more for guessing than reading, the whole thing on a small piece of paper).

Wheelchair accessibility: Entrance via a step, so not recommended with a wheelchair.“

“Exceptional restaurant.
We discovered this restaurant on TheFork.
We had dinner there twice. We were very well received. There is a very good atmosphere, with a wonderful sharing of culture and origins.
The waitress speaks Portuguese but also English very well.
The meat is of impeccable quality. It is tender and perfectly cooked.
There is a superb wine cellar, and the waitress advises very well.
If you read this review, go for it!!!
Remember to make a reservation as the restaurant is popular.“

“It is a great family tranditional taste restaurant, everything is great, food, drinks and services. We shared table side by side with local people but it was so great experiences....we enjoyed the food with the people around us. We just love everything there. Even with the questions about local tourist sites, they took time to guide us ....just so warm and kind: the mother, father and the son, great“

“A relaxed and very nice place, with domestic tappas and some main dishes.
We ate some tapas and burgers. The burger was one of the top 3 that I ate. The waiter was great and translated the Portuguese menu into brilliant English. Definitely worth a return visit soon.

“A place with good service and good treatment, if you come in a large group it is a good recommendation because they will give you space.

The food is not very outstanding but the prices are very fair in relation to quality and price.

What you should take into account is that if it is hot outside, it is very hot inside the place. I would recommend that owners think about having air conditioning.“

“The food was great. Amazing quality. However, the portions are very small and the prices are a bit expensive.
The staff was great, super friendly and helpful
The only thing I’d change are the portions. for the price I think they can increase it“

“They have attended us without reservation with great friendliness and availability. The person at the reception is charming. The place has a very careful decoration and is integrated into the neighborhood. We ordered exquisite cod brais, grilled tuna with coconut milk, delicious, and linguine with tartufo, also very good. Highly recommended if you come to Lisbon. We missed trying the powder, what a shame.“

“Love this place and the concept so much. Already made a couple of friends just from sitting here for some minutes. I love all the food. Healthy and fresh with great prices. Owners are amazing I love to come here! Lots of options for vegetarian as well!“

“Spectacular food and service show why Alma deserves their two Michelin stars! We enjoyed every dish, and the pork and potato terrine remains the best dish we experienced on our trip across Portugal.

A small deduction was made for the environment, which is beautiful but puts guests a little close together in what became a noisier dinner experience than we would expect for the upscale nature. Additionally, the overall value rounds out the 4/5 review. We would never expect such artistic culinary creations to be frugal, but the cost of the tasting menu with no consideration for wine pairing was a small note in the negative.

All in all we would recommend Alma as an experience if you love appreciating the art that fine dining can be, and their staff were some of the best in the business!“

“The food was good!

The dishes were well made, good plating and presentation.

As for the dishes, rich, flavorful, you could tell that the product was good. We noticed the care in the plating and the service was very friendly (both the girl and the boy).

The price may be a little high for what we ordered, but not excessive.“

“The second time in three days that we have come here especially for them. They confirm themselves to be excellence for us. We ate in other places in Lisbon but how you eat here and for what you pay is incomparable to anyone else. The service then unsurpassed. They are very attentive to the customer, it feels like family, generous portions and very low prices. They also offered us some liqueurs at the end and an extra coffee. They are wonderful people. I have no other words to describe them, only that if you don't pass by here you don't know what you're missing. You won't find anything better.“

“Very pleasant restaurant, reservation being essential to eat there, the number of people in the room is regulated and allows a calm meal in a subdued atmosphere.
The service is warm and quality, the owner takes care to personalize the service and all with a smile.
The cuisine is hearty and tasty.
We had a great time marking the end of our stay in Lisbon, and can only recommend it.

Vegetarian options: You can taste a Portuguese sausage specialty with meat and bread, suitable for vegetarians. The vegetarian dishes are very tasty.“

“It was a very pleasant dinner. After a misunderstanding they resolved it satisfactorily and were courteous and willing at all times. The burger, according to my son, the best in the world. The grilled cod is very good. And a very good egg and sausage scramble too. Of the desserts we really liked the creme brulee. It was a very pleasant dinner. Thank you.“

“Charming little restaurant with great wine-food pairings. Friendly staff and very helpful explanations on their different selections of Portuguese wines! Highly recommend the roasted fig salad, the roasted peppers dish, and the game sausage!
Obrigato, José!“

“Located on the premises of the Restelo stadium! With a wide view over the Tagus River.
Beautiful decoration, as it is refined but pleasant.
Attentive and careful service. Traditional Portuguese food, with fish and meat. Presentation of dishes with aesthetics and balance.“

“Taken by friends, as I was unfamiliar with the place, it proved to be a gastronomic surprise, despite the noise not allowing for large conversations. Without ever reaching the stratospheric limit of "divine", the small restaurant served dishes of good, honest and unpretentious Portuguese food. The only negative note for the creamed milk, floured and with few eggs, which could have been something from a packet. A shame, because the burnt sugar topping was delicious.“

“The food, the atmosphere and service were all outstanding. The waiters were all super nice, the mashed potatoes, cod and the national loin thing were all amazing, and you could see the chef making everything by hand, making a new batch of mashed potatoes every time someone ordered it. The prices were really good for how good the food was, and this is probably the best restaurant I have ever been to!“

“This place is fantastic! Each dish we got was easily a 10/10. Very flavorful and delicious! The staff were so friendly and attentive, and the atmosphere was cozy and relaxed. We loved it so much we talked about coming back the next day for lunch! Definitely worth a visit.“

“What we ordered was very good, soup of the day with vegetables and legumes, rice with octopus, and homemade caramel cream for dessert. The service is fast and the waiters very attentive, they have invited us to ginja liqueur. Recommended site!“

“We had an extraordinary enjoyable experience dining in this lovely restaurant at our stay in Lisbon. The food and the wine were excellent and the friendly staff added to the lovely atmosphere. Together with the reasonable price we highly
recommend and will definitely come back.“
