    The meal itself was very nice. I had the Seabass & my husband had the Gold Breem. Both cooked really well with boiled potatoes & broccoli. My only issue was the speed of everything. The waiters were very helpful when we enquired about advise for a bottle of white wine. We no sooner had taken a drink of our wine when they were filling our glasses again. When we were just about finished eating a waiter came over & tipped the remaining wine into our glasses & took the bottle away along with everything else. We like to take our time at the end of a meal finishing our wine & it all felt far too rushed. Because we didn’t want any desserts our bill was brought even though we were still drinking our wine & hadn’t asked for it. The waiters are a bit manic rushing about almost trying to compete with each other to get to a table first. Although the food was nice enough we wouldn’t return because it was far too rushed & not a relaxing meal.

    This was the best Sea bass I’ve had in a very long time. The waiters were quite entertaining the way one was all friendly & funny and the other rushed around at full speed. Great find. When we walked past one night it was closed but I kept the name Thank goodness and read up on it. Thoroughly recommend to book it.

    We were rushed, the waiter was taking plates away before we had finished! After 2 courses & a bottle of wine, we were that rushed that we had left within 35 minutes. The chicken dish was full of small bones. The cod dish was nice though

    This place is a hidden gem. Not fancy or touristy at all. Good, well prepared seafood at reasonable prices and generous portions. Excellent service.

    The restaurant was exceptionally quiet it was a Monday night. The owner was very gracious and was very helpful. The lack of ambiance diminished the overall experience. But the food was good and extremely well priced

    Traditional Portuguese cuisine. Honest, unpretentious, fresh and delicious. The service is bionic. Our fresh fish - charcoal grilled to perfection - was FRESH! Lovely, simple meal. Don’t forget the deserts.

    I’ve been traveling Europe for a month now and this by far was the BEST meal I’ve had. The care taken with the preparation could be tasted; the balance of flavors in itself was a wonderful experience, not to mention the freshness of the ingredients. Our server recommended a wonderful wine pairing too. Definitely an unforgettable experience - one that would encourage me to return to Liston just for this experience again. Fantastic!!

    We had our last dinner in Lisbon at this wonderful restaurant. Wish we’d known about it sooner we would’ve had additional meals there. Very authentic quality food. Amusing and caring staff. Good wine selection, fresh food, definitely recommend the steaks and fish.

    Great food. Only a few tables and waiter hovered and rushed us. Steak on stone and sea bass were fantastic and reasonable to us Americans

    Delicious, well prepared traditional Portuguese food. Kind, accommodating service. English menu available but not at all touristy. Lots of local customers, clearly a neighborhood favorite, but short walk from Sheraton and other large hotels.
