    Always a lovely experience here. Delightful cooking and wine list, and a charming staff. The room itself seduces you. One of my favorites.

    I honestly can't recommend O Palmeiral enough. The atmosphere is amazing, but the hospitality is what sets this place apart. The owner was super accessible and social, even offering us a glass of Espumante to start the evening right. The waiting staff was fantastic, attentive and warm. As for the food: 10/10. We started with the Tortellini in broth which was extremely tasty. For mains, the Pork Cheeks were incredibly tender and came with a purée that was to die for. We also had the Chicken Cacciatore, beautiful presentation and the seasoning with the lemon was absolutely on point. If you are looking for a place with genuine soul and great Italian food, this is it. Will definitely be back!

    What a great dinner! Both the aubergine parmigiana and the chicken cacciatore were beyond fantastic. The tiramisu was out of this world. On a scale of 1-10, this place gets a 15!

    Obrigado Ed! Bom natal e até breve 🌴♥️

    Aubergine parmigiano was amazing, tiramisu ok. The portions were nice and big and the atmosphere was enjoyable! We were a bit dissapointed as we were charged for bread sticks which we didn’t eat and the bread they automatically bring to the table isn’t free.. (but the flavour was good).

    O Palmeiral

    Thank you for the lovely words, and we are so sorry for the grissini sticks! We want to make money normally, not through dodgy charging, so I'm very sorry about this and the team have been told to be more careful. Hopefully it will not stop you from returning 🙏🌴❤️

    Lovely cooking in a super charming room. The veranda outside is terrific when the weather cooperates. There is also a thoughtful wine list!

    The wine list it’s overstimated.

    O Palmeiral

    Thank you for your feedback, Sergio. Our wines start at €14 for a bottle, maybe you chose something from the list that is above your budget. Hope to see you soon.

    Great vibes, amazing service, and just a good time. Food could have been a bit better, 2 of the favorites were sold out so might explain it. In the area you might eat better, but this quaint little restaurant is perfect for a quiet vineyard dinner with a glass of wine.

    O Palmeiral

    Grazie Lucas. Do come back! 🌴❤️

    The food is good but nothing special and when we made a reservation we should have been told it was an outdoor table

    O Palmeiral

    Hi Livia. Thank you for your feedback. We are a small restaurant with limited seats inside and outside. We don’t take bookings to our esplanade but only to our room inside, however, and depending on the time of your booking and how busy we are at the time of your arrival, you might not have seats available inside, but only outside. Or the other way around. Thank you for your understanding. 😉 Tiago Atalaia General Manager

    Great dinner in this cozy italian restaurant. I am Italian, and I really loved each dish, except for the tomato sauce of the eggplants parmigiana. The oil was very good, the veggies, the chicken, and also the tiramisu was ok. Some dishes are a bit pricey for what it offers in Lisbon, where we have many extraordinary italian restaurants.

    O Palmeiral

    Ah, que bom que gostou! E desculpa lá se o molho de tomate foi uma m***a—às vezes até a nonna tem dias maus! 😅 Volte sempre! 🌴❤️

    A cozy, yet classy corner restaurant which my husband and I thoroughly enjoyed. Not only was the chicken cacciatore delicious, but also beautifully presented. The deserts, chocolate mousse and drunken pear, were homemade and an absolute delight. Plus, it was all reasonably priced. We will definitely be back for more.

    O Palmeiral

    Thank you for the lovely review, Elissa! See you very soon. 🌴 Tiago Atalaia General Manager
