    Food was excellent…the pastel de nata dessert was one of the best desserts I have ever had…superb. Service was also on point…attentive without being over bearing. Our waiter Leonardo is a credit to Federico.

    The last time we were in LIS, we walked through the bar and wanted to eat here. Unfortunately, the restaurant was disappointing. They don’t update their menus, could not make the cocktail we ordered and was serving a different wine by the glass than the menu. Additionally, while the restaurant was relatively empty, we had a long wait while others arriving after us received their entrees. If in the area, it’s a definite must see given the ambiance, but I’d go elsewhere for dinner.

    We chose Frederico’s for the last night of our stay in Lisbon based on the excellent reviews. Our experience did not reflect the reviews we had read. The food was delicious and we had absolutely no complaints there at all, but the service was non existent! We had to ask 3 times before one of the drinks appeared and at no point were we asked if we wanted anymore drinks. There were massive gaps in our courses which would not have been quite as noticeable if we hadn’t been sitting with both empty water and drinks glasses. We eventually asked where our main course was. We were offered the dessert menu which then took 20 minutes to appear. At the end of the meal we asked to speak to whoever was in charge and were told he had left. The member of staff we spoke to apologised for our disappointment, but added we were not the first people to complain. They then went on to tell us that waiters in Portugal don’t care about the customers. This has certainly not been our experience during our visit

    Federico

    Dear Fiona, Thank you for your comments, which help us to improve our work. We're very sorry that your experience didn't meet your expectations. We were there on a busy night, which directly affected service. We hope that we will have other opportunities to show you the real Federico experience, which is quite the opposite of what was reported here. “A customer is the most important visitor on our premises. He is not dependent on us. We are dependent on him. He is not an interruption in our work. He is the purpose of it. He is not an outsider in our business. He is part of it. We are not doing him a favor by serving him. He is doing us a favor by giving us an opportunity to do so.” – Mahatma Gandhi Kind Regards - Team Federico

  • John B.10 months ago

    The food is outstanding, truly exquisitely, prepared with subtle and interesting flavors and textures. The foie gras was particularly amazing, and I’m a real fan of various versions, so I can tell when it’s good. Service is plentiful & friendly, but a tad fragmented, (too many people running around without good coordination.) Nothing that can’t be easily coped with, but they should consider smoothing out the rough edges in what is overall a very high-end experience. The music and the noise level is slightly louder than ideal, but that may be what they’re going for on purpose. For a small restaurant, I would prefer something a bit quieter and soothing. But you should definitely give this place a try, it is a serious enterprise, and the quality of everything is fairly priced for the high value.

    Dear Mr. John, Thank you very much for your words, which fill Federico with meaning. Each client is part of our story, which only makes sense when it's written with guests like you.

    Staff were friendly and helpful however we ordered duck and tenderloin both medium well and both came out more medium rare. It was only 1/2 way through we discovered it and when we showed maitre di he agreed and said he would tell Chef as it was a mistake. That’s it. No can I get you a desert or coffee to make up for it. Nada. Also we had scallops as a starter and asked for them to be well done and they came out rare as well. Clearly Chef has ‘his way’ of doing things and he’s not for changing. Overall it was the most disappointing meal in Lisbon where we only found restaurants to be super except this. Would not be back.
