    The food (steak, croquettes, pâté) was delicious and filling; the staff were friendly, helpful and attentive; the atmosphere was calm, soothing and pretty. Bravo!

    Fabulous service, very good food even if there isn't much variety. A little bit noisy but the room is small, so it probably can't be helped.

    I had no idea, before arriving, that this type of restaurant is very typically and traditionally Portuguese. The decor is so opulent and almost majestic. The waiters were extremely attentive and welcoming and obviously very proud of their restaurant. The food is the best we have had here. Delicious Bacala and prawn curry (with Portuguese origins, we were told, from Goa). Also full of local customers. Loved it!

    We had to ring the bell and wait till someone opens... got that secret masonry vibe... It does have the fine dining ambiance, also somewhat snobbish or... I don't know, they worry too much to take themselves seriously... I ordered the cod dish and asked the waiter (the doorman, the barman in the same persona) "Why are there worms in my fish?"... you should see the horror on his face!! My joke almost cost the poor man a heart attack.

    The food was incredible and the staff was terrific. I would definitely visit this place again when I come back to town and I rarely ever revisit places on vacation. We ordered the house steak and it was cooked to perfection. Our waiter paired it magnificently with a red from southern Portugal.

    For romantic, business or family (without unpolite kids, please) A top tier restaurant with the ambience of the sophisticated classic old days. The food is amazing, drinks also (including cocktails) The staff service is superb! I mean, those rare quality staff and service nowadays you only get from the most expensive restaurants (and even in comparison with those, they would excel) Couldn’t have been a more positive experience. Price-quality for what I have described above, is unbeatable Can’t recommend more. You will Love the experience!

    The service is top-notch, characterized by careful attention, politeness, and friendliness, with a keen focus on the customers. We had the “bife à cafe do Paço”, the meat was excellent and cooked to perfection, although it could have come with a bit more sauce. The potatoes are frozen, and I believe this aspect could be improved. The decor is somewhat neglected, and the space deserves more attention. There are decorative elements in the entrance, dining room, and bathroom that make no sense at all, lacking cohesion. I quite enjoyed the experience due to the service and the food, but given the abundance of restaurants in Lisbon, this place deserves an investment to prevent it from being overlooked.

    I Love this restaurant! Classic dècor, with wooden pannels and red damask fabric. Attentive competent, and polite staff. The steak "à Café do Paço", probably the best in Lisbon
