8/10Gave another chance to revisit Davvero as the last visit on 4/11/24 was terrible & Davvero did not respond with an apologies & at that time address the terrible food to the waiter & also did not receive an apologies nor suggested to order another dish. Visit on 10/07/24 was a suprised because I did not order Cotoletta Di Maiale Ibérico Alla Milanese afraid of having the same experience again instead ordered Tagliata “Ribey” and was surprised that it was prepared very tender and according to the request for “medium rare”. Hope it will keep up the standard as will visit again

8.5/10Even though, we seldom stay more than 2 hours for dinner, we do not feel comfortable in being told that we have but 1 hour and 45 minutes for the whole experience. Neither are we so happy with the somewhat loud disco Music, Making it hard to hear the voice from the other side of the table. We ventured the speciality of the day tuna and pasta. This dish lacked the little extra and did not taste or look according to price . All this said, vines very execellent as was the service, the tidyness and all the smiles.

10/10First of all, our reservation was at 21:00, but they took us to the table exactly 25 minutes later and they did not care at all beforehand, so we actually had an unhappy start, but later on, the employees and chefs were so helpful and friendly, and the food was so delicious!while it was truly an unpleasant start, we forgot it because dishes are amazing! And everything was so delicious.

8.5/10Food up to the same standard as Italy-carciofi particularly good. The house wine very acceptable. Opera singers were a very pleasant surprise.

2/10When we made the table reservation, it was mentioned that the table would only be available for 1 hour and 45 minutes. Later, a representative from the restaurant called and reiterated that the table could only be occupied for a limited time. Upon arriving at the restaurant, which was only half full, we were once again informed, for the third time, that we had a strict time constraint of 1 hour and 45 minutes for our dinner. It felt like this was the restaurant's top priority, as they emphasized it as much as possible. As for the cuisine itself, it is quite distinct from traditional Italian cuisine, despite their claim of being an Italian restaurant. The portion sizes, especially for meat dishes, are very small and the prices are clearly inflated. Initially, the service was prompt, but it became considerably slower as the dinner progressed, leading to longer waiting times for attention. Consequently, we ended up leaving the restaurant much earlier than our allocated time. If you are looking to dine at an Italian restaurant, I would suggest considering other options.

10/10Small lovely restaurant with a classy vibe. Incredible service. Can see the chefs working in the kitchen. The raviolis were shaped like hard canoes and incredible in a brown butter. My husbands sea bass was perfectly cooked. Would totally recommend.

8.5/10Went to celebrate my mother’s birthday. Our waiter was wonderful. I asked ahead of time and at the restaurant if they would sing Happy Birthday to my mom. He said yes. Then by the time it was time for cake the manager said no they can’t. It was very disappointing. That kind of ruined the moment because I could have found a place that did. Also I brought my moms cake with us and upon arriving I asked them to keep the cake until we were ready to eat it. I was asked if I was told about some kind of cake tax?? Never in my life had I heard of that nor had I been told that prior. So they will actually charge you a “cake tax” even though you brought your own cake and your already spending your special day and money with them? Cake tax for just holding my cake for like 30 mins? It seem like a big scam it’s wrong. The food was good but I feel like some of the people were nice but overall we didn’t feel totally welcome. So no I would not recommend this place plus the cake tax is a turn off.

7.5/10The staff was more than helpful and attentive. Our waitstaff had an incredible knowledge of the wine menu and made an excellent and well-paired selection for us. The wine was amazing, as was the featured cocktail; however, we felt rushed with our 3-course meal coming out too quickly - one course immediately after the other, without delay - enough to let the course settle before eating additional food. The appetizer (cheeses and ham) was delicious. My husband and I shared the bolognese - fresh pasta cooked perfectly. The main course. (veal medallions) with very, very thinly sliced, so they were overcooked and dry - that was disappointing, but the deserts were yummy. Overall, a nice experience.

7/10Overall food was average, I think this restaurant is trying to be Cipriani but is lacking the quality of food... All of the dishes we had were suggested by the waiters that served us (who were very kind), but I think other tables dishes looked much better. We started off with the beef croquette and the beef tartare - croquettes were very good and the tartare was average. We then continued with the cacio e pepe, and entrecote, and finished off with the vanilla meringue cake. The cacio e pepe was alright, entrecote was underwhelming but the fries that came with on the side was great! Finally, the vanilla meringue cake was very good! Tables are also a bit too close to each other, we can fully hear the conversations of the tables next to us without even trying, but service was impeccable and tentative.

10/10By far the best Italian restaurant in Lisbon I have experienced so up to now. The food is proper Italian, no fuss and homemade tasting but served in a gorgeous setting with immaculate service. The cod appetizer, the cacio e pepe, the melanzane parmigiana, the lemon tart and the fresh vanilla ice cream are all not to miss!

5.5/10The food was ok. Our head waiter was lovely and he diid his best, but the assistant wait staff was rude and one of them pushed my colleagues chair out of the way, with her in it, because he didn't want to walk around her. The manager gave a little apology but offered nothing in compensation, not even a coffee. The layout is very cramped and not enough room between the tables when it is fully booked. For a supposed five star restaurant, it was not five star service and that was disappointing.

7/10An outstanding pasta al dente. Cacio e pepe as you could eat in Rome. Perfect cooking, perfect coating. A hundred points for the use of spaghettoni, for the choice of Gargnano, and for serving it in a hot plate. This is really premium. Baccalà mantecato absolutely outstanding. Like in a bacato in Venice, all the flavor and the touch of warmth of a delicious bite. An amazing scaloppina with a touch of classical flavors, a perfect sauce, a delicious and tasty second course. Unfortunately the purée was really, really bad. More the canteen one than Roubouchon. The potatoes weren’t right (surely not Ratte) and they remained full of lumps :( The wine list is terrible: straight out of a distributor with less taste than knowledge, really clashes in a bad sense with the skills of the chef. The service is very confused, I think it’s a plague of these days in Lisbon to find a bad and confused service :(
