The restaurant requested pre selection of menu with reconfirmation in advance. The warm wine was a nice touch to start. However, theappetizer, entree, and dessert were not good on both the sea menu and wild menu on Christmas Eve menu. Duriing dinner, staff cannot remember the selections after multiple clarifications throughout the meal - the staff mixed up sea and wild selection from their menu multiple times. Both food and service were big disappointments. The place is also very over priced for the quality.

We dined at Bono on our first night in Lisbon, and it was absolutely incredible! We really appreciate great food, and the craftsmanship of the chefs was outstanding. The waiting staff were equally impressive, attentive, friendly, and couldn’t do enough for us. Highly recommend and can’t wait to return!

We had to stand awkwardly at the door for 10 minutes before our table was ready (we have a reservation at 2100). The place was smothering hot. It looked like they have AC but I think one of them didn’t work and the other one was barely working. The ceviche was amazing and the only saving grace of this place. Our entrees were terrible. The beef couldn’t have lacked more flavor and the carbonara was a bit of a joke. The group of women behind us were clearly very drunk and loud and disruptive.

Our family celebrated my husband's 80th birthday at Bono on New Year's Eve. The food was outstanding, the service was professional and efficient, and the ambiance was fitting for a celebration--quiet, warm, and inviting. The waitstaff even brought a candle on the dessert and sang Happy Birthday! I very highly recommend Bono for a special occasion.

Not sure who in the kitchen is paying attention. The service is attentive and pleasant. The appetizer of cerviche was very good. However, the entree of Iberian pork was terrible. It was basically a piece of fat that was barely cooked. When mentioned to the waitress all she said was sorry. I should have made a bigger deal of it and refused to pay it was so bad. My guess is that meals here are hit or miss.

Wonderful time, wonderful service, great food, and the Brazilian coffee chocolate cake was one of the best desserts of my whole life… (and I’m aging). So grateful. Many thanks to the whole team.

De service was amazing! One of the main dishes was overcooked, they fixed it right away and we got an personal apolagy from the chef. The food overall was very good and we had a great night.

Loved our dinner in Bono. Music and noise level perfect, could hear each other without hearing all the other conversations. Food excellent- try the chocolate cube for dessert!! Would highly recommend a visit.

My friend recommended this restaurant to me and I’m so glad he did. The food was amazing, the service was attentive, and the ambiance was great. I had supper at 15 different restaurants in Portugal on my vacation and Bono Lisboa was easily in the top 5.

This was my 4th time visiting Bono restaurant. It is a great place to dine. Quiet, but without lacking in the atmosphere. Good for romantic date's, or dinner with family and friends. The food and cocktails were excellent 👌

We dined here twice about two weeks apart. Totally different experience the second time. Server did not know the menu, forgot items and had to be reminded often and was generally very slow. Better trained staff would help with consistency.

Excellent and friendly service with fantastic food in a refined and stylish restaurant. The size of the restaurant gave it a feeling of coziness. Me and my gf had the Valentine’s Day 7-step menu which consisted of many small delicacies. The amount of food was just right to make us full without being stuffed. Thanks for a great evening, Bono Team!

Some dishes excellent while others were average. White fish gravlax disappointed. Chocolate dessert was excellent. Other mains were highly rated. Nice ambiance. Service was not amazing but ok. Chef came the table to ask us what we thought - a very nice touch and shows real effort to please.

Very good quality food, very innovative presentations, loved the carrot salad and the rack of lamb was perfectly seasoned and cooked. The presentation for the lemon meringue pie was awesome and really tasty. If you are a foodie this is a really fine dining place for you.!

Almost everything was spot on and excellent for its price for the quality you’re getting. The serving staff was spot on but if you really want to get the best of it sit on the bar facing the kitchen that’s where the real show is.

Wonderful quality of food, super cocktails, chef comes to the table to ask for the appreciation. Top restaurant

The food was good but the waiter has no basic knowledge about being a waiter from the way he was serving us to the way he was insisting on suggesting some meals. Another annoying thing at the place is the sound. It s very noisy people need to talk loud to be able to have a conversation. Not the best mood for dinner

The service here was awful for only our table. It’s a tiny restaurant where they can see every table at once and yet everyone else around us was getting so much more attention. We waited 20 minutes just to get a menu. We ordered bread with a starter but were told there was no bread left, then 10 minutes later the table next to us got a basket of bread with their starter. We didn’t eat our mains until almost 2 hours after arriving. The food was tasty but portions were small and didn’t make up for the rude and unfair service. Im not sure whether it was because we were the youngest table there that they thought we weren’t important.

Great food, nice ambiente, reasonable prices

Food was delicious but service could be better. They took too long to bring the couvert and we understood why: warm bread and caponata a la minute. Waitress should have advised and we would have totally understood. Filet was perfectly cooked and gnocchi of sweet potato a nice surprise.

Nice place and nice staff and food is tasty. Really liked the atmosphere. Our waiter’s English was pretty limited so for recommendations and help with the menu and wines, it’s best to know Portuguese.
