Sadly, a big disappointment. Service was poor – the table wasn’t cleared, the main course was forgotten for over two hours, and a new waiter behaved unprofessionally, making sarcastic remarks and even showing us the finger behind our backs. When the food finally arrived, the tiger prawns were just two small prawns presented as a main dish for two people (€60). The wine was good, but both food and service fell short. Especially disappointing since our visit a year ago, before the expansion, was so pleasant. No extra reduction beyond The Fork discount.

Dear Tone Lofgren, We are truly sorry to read about your disappointing experience and would like to offer our sincere apologies. What you describe does not reflect the standards of service and hospitality we aim to provide. We are especially concerned to hear about the unprofessional behavior of one of our new team members — this is completely unacceptable, and we are addressing the matter internally to ensure it does not happen again. Regarding the delay in your main course and the portion size, we appreciate your feedback and will review both our kitchen procedures and menu descriptions to avoid similar issues in the future. We’re very sorry that your return visit did not live up to your previous positive experience. If you are open to it, we would love the opportunity to speak with you directly and restore your trust in us. Please feel free to contact us at 00351-936033877. Kind regards, Jose Manuel

From the minute we arrived and we're greeted at the door until we left and bid farewell at the door the service and attention to detail makes you feel like you're the only customers in the restaurant. The food is top class and is one of the best Italian restaurants we've eaten in and not just in Lisbon but anywhere. Can not recommend this restaurant highly enough. 100%

We ate here twice. Very close to our lodging. If you make a reservation for dinner you are seated in the quieter dining room next door, same menu. Both meals were lovely. Not necessarily either Italian or Portuguese, just well prepared food. Very fresh lovely gilled sea bream for lunch on our second meal. Recommend!

Quality of the food was fantastic. We were there for my aunts birthday (a group of 9) and they really made an occasion of it! Free prosecco on arrival, a birthday dessert and limoncello shots after dinner. The staff were extremely friendly and we felt so welcome. Highly recommend visiting if you are in Lisbon.

Nonna is a very nice and affordable restaurant. We got a a welcome prosecco. Then the bruschetta and vitelli tonato were excellent. The seabass was very fresh and had excellent flavor. My pasta aglio e olio e peperoncino also good. Last but not least: very kind/thoughtful service!

We felt among friends the moment we walked into the restaurant. The staff were friendly, provided the perfect service and were amazing. The food was superb and the atmosphere vibrant for an 8pm booking. We would encourage everyone to visit this gem of a restaurant in Alfama.

This is our third visit to this lovely Alfama restaurant. The food is authentic Italian with a wide varie5of choice in Pasta. Their homemade focaccia is a must try. This time we also followed the advice of the chef and ordered grilled Dourada ( Sea Bream ) which was charcoal grilled with a touch of butter. Save a space for their deserts as well since Tiramisu is excellent and their Pana cota is very refreshing. Will keep on coming to this charming place for sure

We revisited this restaurant 6months later for another dinner. The owner of the restaurant is always very kind and helps you to choose from awide range of offerings of the menu. We are offered Prosecco as welcome drinks. Our started was their homemade focaccia with mozzarella prosciutto. A generous plate enough for 2 people. We continued with their seafood Tagliatelle, fantastic choice I must add. Their house wine is actually a bottle of Italian wine with choices of dry, rose and red as well as dry and fruitty. We concluded our dinner with a delicious tiramisu accompanied with complimentary port wine. 🩷 The presentation of each plate was also fantastic. service fast and tastes extraordinary. Strongly recommend this Alfama Italian restaurant to everyone

Lovely meal & excellent service. We were greeted with a Prosecco before ordering & given a very nice port wine with dessert. The meals were very tasty. I had fruiti di mare pasta. The seafood was perfectly cooked (not chewy) & delicious. My companions were also happy with their meals. We started with the nonna bruschetta which o definitely recommend. For dessert, we had a very nice tiramisu. I def in Italy recommend this place. The little extras along with a great meal made the night.
