    Pátio da Alfama is located in a Lisbon area perfect for those who love nightlife. Good food and good music complete this perfect atmosphere!

    The food wasn't very good but the atmosphere was great! We also chose this restaurant for the 50% discount but in the end, the discount was not applied.

    I give an extra star for the food, it was average. We waited for the appetizer for about 1.5 hours. During our stay, there was a show for which the restaurant wanted to add 20 euros per person without prior notice.

    We were a group of 16 and was worried that this would be a soso experience, but how wrong. We had a great time. Food was good and the Fado was awesome.

    Although the food was okay, the service and the staff left a lot to be desired. Would like to point that in Portugal, the staff didn’t even spoke Portuguese and barely any English. Also, no one explained to us how the price was, we were almost charged 20€ per person for a show we didn’t even know was happening. This app didn’t let us know that we couldn’t just go there to eat, we HAD TO pay for a show. Fortunately, the owner understood and let us eat and go without paying the 20€ fee however, this could have been avoided if it had been explained beforehand. Overall price was expensive for what was offering.

    This restaurant was recommended to us by friends so I made a reservation weeks in advance for my family of five. It was a lovely walking distance from our hotel. We got a wonderful table and in minutes we got our drinks which were delicious . Our waiter was super and got our appetizers in a timely fashion then the main course arrived. Food quality was excellent and we definitively coming back next time we visit Lisbon.

    Plan on a long visit. No matter what time you show up, they delay so you stay until the end of the show.

    First of all, the welcoming was not so nice. I had a table booked but still it seemed like they have to make an effort getting a table for us although many tables were free. Then we got a table at the most cowded and noisy area although there were many other free tables. The menu card only arrived late and not in english. Additionally, nobody spoke english to me being very clear that I was not portuguese. We have been waiting for a really long time to get our dishes. Although the service was friendly but slow. The food was really good. For that price of the meals we received tiny portions. Also the room was quite cold to be in. Last but not least, we got the bill claiming we had to pay twice a special from which we didn't know what it was (in sum 30 Euro). In the end we were charged for the Fado show. This was not written anywhere - not during the booking, not in the restaurant nor were we informed about this when we were seated.
