    Slow service, not very attentive, hard to get attention in the restaurant. Two waiters for a long time chatting together in front of a computer in the bar area with out paying attention to the total of 4 clients in the whole restaurant On the other hand, the men in the reception are most attentive and helpful and professional

    This is a hidden treasure. Delicious food, amazing view, incredible service, reasonable prices. We loved it! We had the codfish which my friend says was the best she ever tasted. I had the Turbot and it was so delicious I had to eat every bite and every drop of sauce. We had the chocolate cake with caramel popcorn for dessert. It was such a fun combination of texture and flavor! The waitstaff was so kind and attentive bringing us blankets and extra bread just to make us more comfortable.

    Amazing food, friendly staff and beautiful ambience. We sat outside at sunset and enjoyed the gorgeous rooftop views. They even provided blankets when the sun went down and we got chilly. We stayed for three hours and will definitely come back.

    My experience was amazing! Apolo, our waiter, was incredibly attentive and went above and beyond to ensure we had a fantastic dining experience. His recommendations were spot on, and he made us feel welcomed. The view is wonderful.

    6.5/10

    The food was disappointing. Our shrimp dish had sand in it, and both of us had to spit it out because of the crunchiness. When the waiter asked how everything was, we mentioned it, but nothing was done to rectify or accommodate - they just said “okay.” The steak I ordered medium came out well done, while the slow-cooked beef rib was the only highlight. Overall, the food felt subpar for the price, even with the “fork” discount. We’ve been there before, and so I can easily compare as our first visit had been much better. The service was also lacking. After asking for the bill and waiting 10–15 minutes, I eventually had to go up to the bar to pay, despite five staff members being around with only a few guests in the restaurant. Given the high cost and the reputation of being one of Lisbon’s top restaurants, the experience was disappointing. Unfortunately not coming back after this experience.

    Very nice cafe overlooking the city. The food was exceptional. It was a late lunch so not many people and the service was a bit slow although all the servers were very pleasant. They seemed to be training a new person. Nevertheless the food was excellent and I look forward to going back and introducing this place to my friends.

    We dined on a Monday night and started with drinks on the patio with a panoramic view of the City. For dinner we moved inside and although we ate early for Lisbon (8pm) dinner was neither crowded nor hurried. They offered a discount for booking an early time. This restaurant is in a modern boutique Hotel. Excellent attentive service with reasonable price in classy surroundings. We recommend it, and will book the Hotel too next time we are in town. I recommend it-The Rey Feo.

    Our experience was memorable. From the hostess up to the waiter (Mr. Duarte) was everything wonderful. Beautiful place, gorgeous views, great dj/music, fabulous food and drinks with descent prices. It was a marvelous experience, which we pretend to repeat asap and naturally indicate to our international friends.

    With a stunning view over Lisbon and a prime location, this restaurant offers a memorable experience from start to finish. The food was delicious and well presented, full of flavour and clearly made with quality ingredients. The cocktails were equally impressive—creative, refreshing, and perfectly balanced. The ambiance strikes the right note between relaxed and elegant, making it ideal for both casual evenings and special occasions. Add to that the attentive service and the unbeatable scenery, and you have one of the city’s true gems. A must-visit in Lisbon.

    Great food and service. We loved the spicy drink (sorry don't remember the name). The view is awesome too, just not a sunset view. It faces east.

    The location is amazing, very fancy with a stunning view over Lisbon! The food is also nice although I had to ask to change my cocktail as it was too sour. What it didn’t work was the service, our table was often forgotten.. we needed to call and chase the waiters for everything and we took 1.5 hours to get our food (reservation was at 20:30 we got our main dishes at 22:45..)
