⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent Beef Tenderloin, Warm Service & Stunning Views We had an amazing experience at Terraço de Belém! The beef tenderloin was absolutely excellent—perfectly cooked, tender, and full of flavor. The service was warm and attentive, and the owners even came by to check on us personally, which made us feel truly welcome. The view over the Tejo River with boats passing by added a beautiful and relaxing touch to the whole evening. A perfect combination of great food, genuine hospitality, and stunning scenery. Highly recommended—we’ll definitely be back!

The starters (soup and octopus salad were amazingly good). The croquette of Bacahlau was the best that we could have so far in Lisbon. Great service (waiter a bit unfriendly at the beginning but then they are really nice)

Terraços de Belém – A Hidden Gem by the Pier Terraços de Belém is a true hidden gem, nestled right by the pier where the great explorers once set sail to discover the New World. The location alone is magical, with a balcony that offers stunning views of the boats and the peaceful waters — the perfect setting for a memorable meal. From the moment we arrived, Laura and her team welcomed us with genuine smiles and kindness that instantly made us feel at home. The service was warm, attentive, and full of heart. We sat on the balcony overlooking the pier — the view of the boats gently swaying in the water was absolutely stunning and added something truly special to the evening. As for the food: perfection. The beef was tender and full of flavor, and the octopus was cooked just right — delicate, yet rich and satisfying. Every dish was clearly made with care and quality ingredients. This place is a rare find — beautiful setting, incredible food, and people who truly love what they do.

Amazing food and service. Waitress Laura is a very good professional, she makes you feel like you’re the only customer at the restaurant. Worth the money.

We were the only customers for lunch. A bit weird... Food was very good (salmon a bit dry) and service was excellent.

Excelent service from the staff and the owners. Really friendly and collaborative. Great food. The grilled polvo (octopuss) and the steamed rice with shrimps and lobster more than excelent.

The codfish was delicious and the sangria too. Great service and the view to the river is amazing.

Were it not for too much salt, food would be 5 stars. One needs to keep asking for the cook to avoid excessive use of salt otherwise everything (from main dish to a salad) will just be too salty. Staff friendly and accomodating. Service is relatively fast. The view on the marina is great.

My first 2 options were not available. Considering the difficult COVID times, that’s understandable. The fish I had, though, was delicious, so I wasn’t disappointed after all. The construction work nearby took away some of the charm of the docks, but as soon as that is finished, the atmosphere will improve.

Very friendly staff and food was tasty. Good choise of dishes and not a very expensive. Well worth.

It was an overall disappointment.. The service wasn't welcoming and the food was bad (lacked salt, too much oil, overcooked). The view was indeed pretty but I don't think it's worth to have a meal there to see it. We got out feeling stomach sickness.

Very Good quality of dishes, great view from the restaurant terrace and they're complying with safety procedures at this time of pandemic. A place to return certainly.

We’re regulars by now and we’ll keep going to this excellent restaurant as long as it keeps serving us this quality food and service, seasoned with a friendly welcome and such a nice view over Lisbon.

If you want to eat well, served with a generous dose of friendliness, this is the right place!

Extraordinary. Staff always ready to help, extreme cleanliness, posh atmosphere and delicious food with perfect delivery. The menu offers a wide variety of delicious and mouth-watering starters followed by the main course, and the desserts are specially designed for youngsters and adults, they also offers various types of drinks, they serve one of the best wines in the region. Because of the brilliant atmosphere and delicious food service, I highly recommend going to the Terraço de Belém restaurant. Best wishes for Laura.

The restaurant does nice food and it’s inviting, but the upper deck wasn’t available and the view from downstairs wasn’t very nice. But service was nice and the food was tasty!

An amazingly fresh sea bass with a very welcoming reception in a restaurant we keep returning to. As always, a very good experience with river Tagus and Belém as a sight. Truly recommend it.

There is virtually no view, but apart from that, the service and food were very good. A starter of ham and cheese was good with the ham being sliced a bit too thick, but all parts of the shared dish were tasty. My partners shrimp risotto pleased her greatly and my skate wing was delicious. If you want a view pick somewhere else, but the food and service here was very good.

A beautiful view served with an excellent meal and with a 5 star service. An experience to repeat, for sure.
