8.5/10Food was excellent. We had early reservations so noise was moderate. Two servers for room of 12 tables. Server was assertive on what dishes he wanted you to order. Attentive when food was coming out, but very hard to get his attention as tables filled. We waited 30 minutes to get bill after getting his attention.

8.5/10Good environment, very good service. What is not good is to be charged at the end for olives and water with not advise. Something that should be remediated in benefit of the restaurante qualification.

4/10Mediocre food, nothing special. From the moment we arrived one of the waiters was just rude. We were made to feel as though we were an inconvenience. Really off putting and disappointing. Not much of an atmosphere either.

10/10Sancho is right off the lovely Av. da Liberdade in the heart of Lisbon. It's a charming space with impeccable service and delicious food. We were delighted with our meal and would definitely recommend it!

8.5/10Happy about the food quality and more about the kindness and professionalism of the staff. Maybe a bit pricy.

5.5/10Maybe I still don't "get" traditional portugiese cuisine but everything I ate hier was quite dull and mediocre. The food is very plain and it is done without any imagination or inspiration.

9.5/10This centrally located restaurant is truly affordable. its a bit old school ( including a dessert cart and a very bright dining area) , but that is part of its particular appeal. the waiters know their food and wine inside out and the produce is fresh and on display. the food is traditional, no bells and whistles and simply delicious. I wouldnt recommend it for an intimate night, but for a good meal before going on for a drink somewhere else, absolutely.

9.5/10We ordered based on suggestions from our waiter and they were excellent! He also helped with a wine suggestion which was also wonderful. The wait staff was dry attentive without hovering. The food was deliciously prepared and elegantly presented. Could not have asked for a better meal on our first visit to Lisbon.

10/10This restaurant was really thoughtful from the start, always checking on our table and helping understand all the dishes The food was really good (on a higher price range but understandable) Really good wine and food with the addition of a good service made it a very good experience for me and my friends

10/10Wonderful place with great food and terrific staff. Both the seafood and the beef were excellent, and our waiter was very helpful in recommending a good wine pairing. Dessert was also quite good, I recommend the almond cake if they have it.

9.5/10Exceptional service and quality of the food! We weren’t very hungry and ordered two starters and decided to divide one main dish, which they gladly accepted (it was a very pleasant surprise, as I don’t think anyone would let us divide the main dish in another restaurant of this rang). What’s more, when it came the time for the desert, they offered us to take one half of one desert and another of half of a different one - again that’s something I haven’t seen any restaurant to propose ever, but it was incredibly kind of Sancho. We will return there 100%.

8/10This is a beautiful and spotlessly clean restaurant. The food was very good and the service excellent. It was very quiet and for some of the time we were the only guests in the restaurant.

10/10We went there straight after we landed as our hotel was very close. Our flight was slightly delayed so we got there a bit later than anticipated. But staff were extremely accommodating. Food was amazing too.

9.5/10Our waiter Mauro was excellent. He helped us with the food and wine selection and we felt very welcome. We shared the fresh caught Seabass and it was delicious as were the wines he chose for us based on our description of what we enjoyed in a wine. All around very relaxing, comfortable evening. Would definitely go back. The only thing they could do is soften the lighting in the dining room.
