10/10We entered the cosy restaurant by pressing a doorbell. We were immediately welcomed by friendly staff. David was wonderful and provided a rich history of the dishes and the traditional Portuguese way of preparing steak. It was truly wonderful! The cocktails are also out of this world, and complements the extensive wine list.

10/10This is our favourite restaurant in Portugal. The steak is great, but the people that work there make all the difference!

10/10From the ambience to the food to the staff, everything was incredible. Walking up and having to ring a doorbell to get in felt like a mix between a NYC speakeasy and a steakhouse all in one. Highly recommend when visiting Lisbon!

Rua de São Bento 212, 1200-821, Lisbon, Portugal
At Rua de São Bento 209, 200 meters distance from the restaurant
Com os melhores bifes de Lisboa servidos até de madrugada, o Café São Bento foi reaberto em 2006, mantendo a decoração tradicional com predominância das madeiras e bibelots antigos.
O ambiente mantém-se intimista, fugindo ao conceito tradicional do restaurante pois identifica-se mais com um pub. Recriou o conhecido bife à Marrare e tornou-se um sucesso com vários anos de história. Apelidado por muitos como o melhor bife de Lisboa, o bife à Café de São Bento, mantêm-se desde o seu início fiel a dois princípios: carne de primeira qualidade e dose generosa.
A esta especialidade juntaram-se outras, como o bife à Portuguesa, frito em alho e louro, ou simplesmente grelhado. Para acompanhar, além das estaladiças batatas fritas, pode optar pelo esparregado, salada ou uma bela garrafa de vinho. Sempre que quiser jantar fora tarde, este restaurante é uma boa opção, onde a especialidade são os bifes. E até de madrugada...
