About Il Monello

Il Monello is a hidden gem in Lisbon, offering fantastic Italian cuisine. The menu features dishes from northern Italy, with fresh pasta like truffle and osso bucco. The eggplant with mortadella is a great starter, followed by tiramisu and limoncello for dessert. The small restaurant provides excellent service and a unique dining experience away from the main streets. Guests often enjoy the fried burrata starter and the spaghetti carbonara, which is praised as one of the best in Lisbon. The restaurant is known for its good quality and fair prices, though some feel the atmosphere could be more modern. The carpaccio has received mixed reviews; suggestions include using a balsamic reduction directly on the dish, serving arugula on the side, and adding toppings like pine nuts, capers, micro-greens, or freshly shaved truffle for better flavor and presentation. Overall, Il Monello remains a must-visit spot for authentic Italian food in the city.
