9.5/10The menu is impressively extensive. Some dishes are much stronger than the others (the Peking duck is fantastic!), but overall, everything is well prepared.

9/10We had a really good evening's with our friends visiting from Canada (Cruise finished in Lisbo n) we had eaten before at The Old House so happily recommended it. When we arrived 19.30 for our reservation service was slow but once we were at our table, Arthur our "Host" waiter was great. Food amazing!

10/10This was our second visit. Great Chinese food with great ambience. Reservations a must as always full. Portions are very generous in size. Make sure to ask if they are for share (they generally are). the only thing to improve could be the dessert section which was very small compared to a huge menu. Great place. Make sure to have it on your list.

10/10Excellent experience. We were able to book a large group lunch on Sunday with no notice. Food was truly authentic, with top notch service. Slightly out of the way from central Lison but worth it.

9/10Authentic Chinese restaurant. Very good food. Went with a Chinese friend who is originally from Shanghai but lived in London, New York and Miami who was very impressed with the quality of the food. Wish the service was better. Our veggie dishes didn’t come out so we cancelled them. Other than that, dinner was amazing. Our Lisbon friends want to come back often.

8/10The restaurant was pretty and the service was good but it was overpriced. The chicken and peanuts dish was ok but not worth 23€, one chinese pancake (which looked like an Indian paratha) went for 7€. Basic drinks are also expensive . We ordered half a Beijing duck, but looked like 1/4. Ask the waiter for the portion sizes, because the specialties might be bigger || O restaurante é bonito e o serviço é bom, porém os pratos são caros para o que é servido. Perguntem pelo tamanho das porções, pois as especialidades são maiores.

8/10We had a late lunch reservation and when we were ordering, we were too late to order the duck while that was the reason to come there. Would have been nice if they told us because people ordered it next to us 5 min earlier en when we ordered, it was too late, while we were there the whole time. They should have let us know that we had to order now if we wanted the duck..

8/10Nice restaurant with good food. The dishes are quit large so it’s not possible to order several dishes and share with 2 persons. The shrimps and duck is already so much that you can’t order more, which is a shame because everything looks so good. The shrimps is so big and with so much shrimps that for 1 or 2 persons we could not eat it all.. could be smaller portions

9/10On my mind thé most authentic Chinese restaurant in Lisbon. All dishes beside one were again perfect. Friendly but because it is a big and popular place service is not that quick, not the kitchen but the waiters are taking care of maybe too many tables. Not always easy to get there attention. It is not cheap like your local Chinese but it is worth the money ! We are there for special occasions like my birthday. If you feel like more authentic Chinese dining experience I do not think they have competition.

7.5/10Awesome spicy shenzhen dishes. Huge menu. Service is slow and have to ask for each item twice. Took 2 hours when it could have taken one.

10/10The authenticity of the Szechuanese cuisine is why we keep coming back to The Old House. As an Asian living in Portugal, many Chinese restaurants have modified the authenticity of the cuisine to suit locals and tourists. We’ll be back for sure each time we come to Lisbon.

Thank you very much for your nice comment. Always feel welcome at The Old House

7/10Whenever I go to this restaurant, I am always reminded of how well decorated it is. The little corners are quite reserved and allow for a great experience. Food, as always, is exceptional. My only issue is the service. My experience with Chinese restaurants, anywhere in the globe, is efficiency and I do not see that efficiency in this place. Service is slow, one calls several times until a waiter finally comes, waiters speaking amongst themselves with a high tone perturbing the room ambiance. Yes, the staff is polite and careful, but I expect more of the service considering the bill at the end.
