Food is really good, but the 55€ per person is not worth it just for a steak, a side of French fries, a Coca-Cola ans a coffee

I booked this restaurant for my husband's birthday and invited friends from Sweden to join us in Lisbon. While the food was good and the wine recommendation was spot on, the experience was ultimately disappointing. Despite mentioning the birthday in our reservation and reminding the waiter twice about the cake, it never arrived. This negligence marred what should have been a special evening, especially considering the €400 bill. Overall, it was an unfortunate and disappointing experience.

The food at Brilhante is definitely center stage. Literally! Ours was cooked to perfection in front of us and delivered hot off the grill to our plate. Dessert and cocktails were also great. Questions about wine pairing? The Sommelier is ready to assist. Loved our night here and we’ll definitely go back for a great experience. BTW, the live DJ on Saturday night brings a great beat and vibe for background tunes.

It's always a pleasant option for a festive family lunch within an atmosphere from a French Bistro in the center of Lisbon.

Very expensive for what it is. The steak is little and with not enough sauce, the fries were mid raw and oily. Dosages are very tiny (the cosmopolitan is so small…). The steak is not amazing, it’s just normal. The space itself is very pretty but very small. We sat near a window with very poor isolation and when a couple was with their moto on near the window our spot just started to smell so bad of gasoline. Overall paid 60€/pp and not impressed

I have nothing bad to say about the service, which was impeccable, the decor, which is very elegant and comfortable, or the quality of the food. But I feel that places like these in Lisbon now are over charging clients on things like “extras” or “sides”. 12€ for a little piece of foie gras, 10€ for a side of creamed spinach, 6€ for a side of lettuce… I don’t think it’s justified, especially since nothing on the menu is that creative. It was nice getting to know a new restaurant, but it didn’t make my “want to return” list.

The restaurant was quite good, but the service was not at the same level. We waited for the table around 30 min then another table was offered at the counter. If the restaurant wants to keep the timetable of the bookings organised, clients should also be informed about it and should leave on time, so the next guests didn’t need to wait.

The space is comfortable and pretty, service is excellent as well. The food is delicious and the cocktails as week (I would recommend to try the Pithivier). Overall it’s a very good restaurant that I would come back to, the only negative point for me are the price of some items on the list.
