    It was a top shelf dining experience, many of the dishes were complex, thoughtful and unique to what you would expect from a Michelin star restaurant. The service was excellent, informative and synchronized, which made for a pleasurable experience. The atmosphere was elegant, but spartan. The only area of dissatisfaction, was the smoked pigeon. I like the creative approach to something I've never eaten, but I feel other meat options would be much more suitable to align with the overall experience.

    We are much surprised from the beginning till the end. Excellent harmony of foodstuffs, sause, and spice lead us to the unknown world.

    The food was good, but the atmosphere was somewhat strained. The atmosphere was not made better by the fact that you could hear loud noises from plates and cutlery from the washing-up room. At one point, very loud scolding could be heard coming from the kitchen.

    The food was amazing, and all the staff was very professional. The only thing was that we didn't get to choose a table by the window even though no one was sitting there. Recommended.

    Artistic kombination of portuguese tiles, scandi furniture, and light, made the interior design perfect for a lovely evening . Great service. Interesting and creative dishes. We will come back. 😃

    Food was not what you expect from the ranking. Service great, atmosphere reasonable. It was not full and we were one of the last tables and got presented the bill before even asking for it. Really felt like we needed to go. Shame that food was also not at par and nice to go but certainly not a must do when in Lisbon.

    This was a superb meal, easily worth one Michelin star and more deserving of two. The food was delicious, inventive and perfectly portioned. The wine pairings were thoughtful and creative. The service was warm, professional and welcoming. I have eaten at many Michelin starred restaurants and this should be considered for an additional star. Highly recommended

    This was a little slice of heaven. The perfect blend of staff and culinary perfection. Couldn’t have asked for a better combination. So grateful to have had a chance to experience our new friends and EPUR.

    This restaurant experience at Epur didn't quite meet our expectations, especially when compared to the high standards we've encountered at other Michelin-starred establishments during our week in Portugal. Firstly, our interaction with the sommelier left much to be desired. We have specific dietary preferences, with one of us requiring low-preservative wines due to a sulphite reaction, and the other favoring cocktails. Instead of accommodating our needs, the sommelier seemed disinterested and even condescending. It's disheartening when a sommelier fails to understand their role in enhancing the guest experience. We've encountered similar wine requirements at other Michelin-starred restaurants in the past week, and they all managed to provide suitable options without any judgment. Moreover, two of the degustation courses left us underwhelmed. The squid ink squid and the gamba/shrimp/prawns dishes were disappointingly bland. While we understand that squid ink itself has a subtle flavor, it's no excuse for serving a tasteless dish. In a Michelin-starred restaurant, we expect every course to be an exquisite culinary experience, and unfortunately, these two fell short. In summary, our visit to Epur was the most disappointing meal we've had during our week in Portugal. The combination of a haughty sommelier and dishes that didn't quite hit the mark left us with a less-than-pleasant impression. When dining at Michelin-starred establishments, we anticipate exceptional service and outstanding cuisine, and sadly, Epur did not deliver on these fronts.

    The food looked beautiful and fun, and tasted delicious. The space felt intimate and the windows peaks out to the view of the city. The team who took care of us were professional and attentive. All together it was sophisticated. We felt at ease and comfortable there.

    It was great Michelin experience in Epur, from their tailored services, warm ambience, fantastic view, last but not the least, the great food. Though there was a little fly that disturbed the meal, we are happy and satisfy on the night. Recommended!

    Lovely restaurant, beautifully positioned to take in views of the Tagus River. We greatly enjoyed a well-matched food and wine selection which emphasised the brilliance of Portugese ingredients. In all, a very lovely evening.

    Truly outstanding dining experience! Staff was very professional and friendly. And the chef’s creations and presentations were off the chart. The wine pairing was quite unique and complemented the dishes beautifully! While expensive, Epur was certainly worth the money and I thought quite the value compared to other Michelin star restaurants!

    Epur is worth its one Michelin star. Very good environment, food and service. The plates are works of art. Miguel is a very fine sommelier who deeply understands Portuguese wines. If we have any criticism it is that the range of Portuguese wines is quite narrow and the wine list would benefit from a geographic expansion. Even a broader range of Old World wines would be good. But that's as negative as we can get. We had a lovely evening and thoroughly enjoyed everything.

    Very happy with our meal in a spacious dining room with great views of the Tagus. Excellent service from the beginning and special mention of Miguel the Sommelier for his insight and enthusiasm for the wines of Lisbon and of course the port also. We were very happy with the blend of flavors and local ingredients and high standard of presentation from the hard working chefs. A special meal in a special location. Very enjoyable for us both.

    What a wonderful experience. The Chef here seems to do miracles with the food, simple seasonal ingredients are made to sing with flavour. Be it the Hamachi, the mushrooms and cauliflower or the black pork all of the ingredients became more intense and richer versions of themselves. In addition to the wonderful food the service was amazing, The team provided what felt almost like one to one service and nothing was to hard or challenging for them. An amazing evenings pleasure.

    Perfect in all ways- from the first sip of white port through the imaginative tasting menu served on lovely contemporary china with no details not receiving attention. Each course was better than the last and deserving the Michelin star. A long but happy experience. Would go back in a minute.

    Being completely honest, it was too expensive for the price. If you were saving 200e to have a "one incredible dinner experience" I would recommend you **not** to come here. On the other hand, if 200e does not represents you much money, let me first congratulate you on your finances, and then tell you that the food is good quality... but there might be a better place in which to use the money.

    Our experience at epur was good but somewhat disappointing. Some courses were excellent (the fish!) while others were less creative than I would have expected (dessert). Perhaps most disappointing of all was the service. We were there celebrating our first wedding anniversary and were delighted to spend this moment at epur, however some of the waitstaff was cold and snooty. They were unaccomodating and didn’t seem to care about our experience. Overall good but somewhat disappointing for a Michelin star restaurant in a city with so many other great options.
