10/10Loved it, and so glad they could accommodate such a large party short notice. The reputation did not disappoint. The extended menu was excellent and the goat and lobster dishes in particular stood out. I will be back next time I am in Lisbon!

3.5/10They changed the place, there was no sightseeing. The food was ok but too expensive compares to the experience

10/10Absolutely spectacular! Food was amazing. Full of surprises. Wine was spectacular. The service was amazing - it was as if it was choreographed! Literally one of my favorite experiences!
Suba • Owner
Dear Jimmy, thank you for such an incredible review! We are thrilled that you found the experience absolutely spectacular — from the surprising flavors of the dishes to the wine selection. Your description of the service as “choreographed” truly made us smile; that sense of harmony and precision is exactly what we work hard to create. Knowing this was one of your favorite dining experiences means more to us than words can express. We cannot wait to welcome you back for another memorable evening. Warm regards, the SUBA team!

10/10Our experience at Suba was absolutely fabulous in every way. The food was exquisite but it was challenged by the entire staff's warm hospitality which made for a highly memorable evening in every way. We enjoyed the full Quilometre 0 dining experience and eat course somehow seemed to be better than the one before and the wine pairings were incredible. The dining room itself was also spectacular with incredibly architecture. Special thanks to the incredibly thoughtful and charming Joana for helping to organize such a special evening. We hope to visit you all again soon Do not miss a chance to visit Suba!!! It is a gem of Lisbon!
Suba • Owner
Dear Joe & Rhonda Gelardi, what a joy it was to read your words — thank you for such an enthusiastic and generous review. We are truly delighted that your experience at Suba was fabulous in every way, and that you enjoyed the full Quilómetro 0 journey. Knowing that each course surpassed the last and that the wine pairings elevated the experience is the highest compliment we could receive. We’re equally pleased that the dining room and its architecture added to the magic of the evening. Your kind mention of Joana means a great deal — we will be sure to share your thoughtful words with her and the entire team. Creating memorable moments through warm, genuine hospitality is at the heart of what we do. We very much look forward to welcoming you back soon for another special evening. Warm regards, the SUBA team!

9/10wonderful food, but we are spoiled. we used to have a view of the bay. the new restaurant area is pretty, but not as pleasing to the eye as the previous area. food remains spot on.. the chef even came out to say hello. this restaurant is always especially evening or dining
Suba • Owner
Dear Michael, thank you for your continued support and for sharing your honest thoughts with us. We completely understand how special the previous bay view was, and we appreciate your perspective on the new dining area. While the setting has changed, we are glad you still find it beautiful and welcoming. It means a great deal to know that the food remains “spot on” and that the chef’s visit to your table added to your experience — those personal touches are very important to us. We are truly grateful for your loyalty and look forward to welcoming you back for many more special evenings. Best regards, the SUBA team!

10/10Lovely view, fantastic service and refined food. The one negative was the wine list was not up to date. A 2019 wine of our choice was listed but a 2021 wine was served, without any price adjustment or excuse. Not good for a restaurant that is aiming for" michelin" quality.
Suba • Owner
Dear Jennifer, thank you for your kind words about the view, service, and cuisine — we truly appreciate it. We sincerely apologize for the issue with the wine. Thank you for bringing this to our attention. We are reviewing our procedures to prevent this from happening again and hope to welcome you back for a flawless experience. Warm regards, the SUBA team!

9.5/10The view from the tables was stunning and the food was delicious. I really enjoyed having food that explored different regions of Portugal. All the dishes had beautiful plating and some where very creative and stunning, I especially liked the box full of smoke. The service was a bit slow at times but the staff was really friendly, they were very happy to answer any questions about the food or what inspired the dishes.

10/10A found memory from my last visit two years ago to a memorable experience this time around. The guiding principles remain the same, but delivery, from the complexity of the flavors to the wine pairing and the meticulous attention to details have undoubtedly improved to star level material.

6.5/10We got an amazing reception and very positive attention all through the evening at this beautiful place. Unfortunately the acoustics are terrible. The room gets noisy from people talking at other tables. We would definitely suggest something to slow down the voices' accelerating out of hand. This had a negative impact in more than one way. Our waiter and the sommelier were both highly accented in their English and at the same time very low spoken. It was hard to understand them. The food was not up to the expectations. The chef's idea of recreating his childhood experiences from Northern Portugal was charming but absolutely a problem. We came to experience top cuisine, and honestly: We didn't. A few examples • Two pieces of bread. One was outright bad. Only when we mentioned that the waiter explained why. • "Blue lobster" seemed uncooked. • The goatling dish was all soft and umami. No sweetness, not crunch, not chewy and no colors but brown. Unappealing.
Suba • Owner
Dear Customer, thank you for visiting and for your thoughtful feedback. We're pleased you felt welcomed and well cared for, and we sincerely apologize that your overall experience was impacted by key issues. We take your comments about acoustics and communication seriously and are actively working on improvements. We’re especially disappointed to hear that the food did not meet your expectations. Our chef’s vision is deeply personal, and while we aim to deliver refined interpretations of northern Portuguese traditions, they must still meet the high culinary standards. Per the food, we are adreesing all the concerns and working on them. We hope you might consider returning in the future so we can offer you a more satisfying experience. Warm regards, the SUBA team.
