9.5/10That was the second Michelin Star restaurant we visited in Lisbon. The food was wonderful and unexpected. But the services were not as attentive as other Michelin restaurant. I expect they would spend some more time to explain each dish in more detail. Overall experience was pleasant, but we expect more from a two stars Michelin.

He also indulged my questions on the ingredients and methods used to make the dishes. Thank you Alma for a wonderful evening and experience.

10/10In short, 3 and a half hours well-spent. Service and execution was attentive without being overbearing. The wine and cider pairings focused only on indigenous beverages, and did not disappoint. The Cider with the Foie Gras...perfect.

10/10As we entered the charming restaurant nestled in the heart of the city, I knew that our lunch would be nothing short of extraordinary. From start to finish, every detail of this hidden gem's meal was executed to perfection. The first thing that caught my attention was the artful presentation of each dish, like a masterpiece on a canvas with vibrant colors and deliberate shapes. As an artist, I couldn't help but admire the aesthetic consideration put into every plate. And as we savored our first bite, it became clear that the beauty extended far beyond the surface. The flavors were a symphony in my mouth, with each dish seemingly inspired by the stunning landscape of Lisbon. Every morsel transported me to the winding streets, azure waters, and lively culture of my Portuguese heritage. During our meal, our server kindly inquired if we were celebrating a special occasion. We revealed that it was our fifth anniversary and were pleasantly surprised when she appeared at our table with a delicate dessert assortment intricately arranged on a hand-carved wooden tray. It was little touches like this that truly set this restaurant apart from all others. In a world where most dining experiences focus solely on the food, Alma went above and beyond to create a truly remarkable and unforgettable experience. From the impeccable service to the unparalleled flavors, every element was carefully selected to tantalize all the senses. It was a lunch that left a lasting impression, one that we will cherish for years to come!

9.5/10One of the best food in Portugal and in the World! service is excelent. Go for the degustation menus. Room is closy and nice but no view.

8/10The food was amazing, everything was delicious, especially the suckling pig. The service was okay but when we were seated, I asked for the wine list three times to pick a wine by the glass. I never got to see the list, instead the sommelier brought me a wine directly. I didn't want to be rude and I accepted his choice. When we got the bill I realized I was given by-glass options that are priced at €30-€35. I don't think this is the right way to treat customers, leaves a bad taste in your mouth despite all the good food.
