10/10We strongly recommend to try this restaurant. Nice environment and patio, friendly and welcoming staff. Food was tasty as well. Very good price/quality ratio with the discount.

9.5/10Food was incredible, it was just a shame it was quiet the night we went so it lacked a little atmosphere.

8/10Great venue for a business lunch, and the food isn’t bad… But, the food presentation or should I say serving presentation has room for improvement. Sadly did discredit how taste the meal was!

7/10Found a deal on The Fork for Animal the other day. I didn’t realise it was a hotel restaurant, which is normally a bit of a red flag. The menu leans towards Asian, and reads nicely. The wine prices didn’t read quite as nicely and were typical of a hotel, as in way overpriced. The staff, although pleasant were rather chaotic. I had a rather strange, although not unpleasant broccoli starter, it was dipped in some kind of unidentifiable crunchy bits. Tasty (ish) but not totally sold. The pork lion main was very generous, however, it was rather rare in places and I’m still a bit wary of rare pork. The stir fried veggies were a hit though. The outdoor space is a beautiful oasis in the middle on the city, that’s probably the highlight. I don’t think I’d return for the food, but it’s a lovely spot for maybe a coffee.

9.5/10Very nice restaurant partly outside in area with lots of plants. I had dinner with my wife and adult son. The food is Asian themed so we had sushi to start and then shredded duck with noodles. Trendy place with pleasant live music. Service mostly good but we did need to make some effort to have our table cleared and order dessert. Cheapest bottle of red wine 30 euros. So well worth a visit.

9.5/10Great service. Interesting food. Men’s bathroom had a bad smell to it not coming from the toilets. The restaurant is worth going to. The service was very friendly and our server was very professional.

2/10Do NOT go here for Christmas Dinner, waste of time and money. The staff didn’t want to be there, there was no atmosphere. Had to ask for a wine list, even though we had booked the wine pairing menu, food was bland to say the least. We were basically processed.

10/10Absolutely lovely first meal, after arriving in Lisbon on a rainy, messy day. We were 15 min late for our reservation and were greeted so warmly by Leonardo, who carried in and stored our luggage and by our server whose name I do not know, unfortunately! Beautiful presentation of three items and a cocktail. Thank you for your warm welcome and magnificent food!

10/10Very nice place with beautiful terrace. The food is amazing, I took the fish with sweet potatoes and it was so delicious ???? For dessert I had the passion fruit cake which was just perfect. Staff is really sweet and welcoming It could be a pit pricy but I got -30% as I booked on The Fork. I highly recommend

10/10The place is relatively new, with a besutiful garden and pool. The food presentation and taste is outstanding. However, the wine selection by glass is very disappointing for such a high quality restaurant. The overall experience was great.

9.5/10Food was great and so were the cocktails. Wine was a little overpriced but good too. I’d definitely recommend them to make Friday/Saturday evenings a bit more of a dance vibe night

6.5/10Incredibly overpriced, even with the discount. Not one filling dish on the menu under 30 euros - and miss me with that 80 euro t bone steak. Ended up getting the broccoli couscous which had weird flavors and no actual couscous. Presentation & service was nice, so was the amuse bouche, but I left to eat somewhere else.

10/10We stay in Hotel Hotel and plan to eat first evening in Hotel Restaurant Animal. It was an exceptionally good dinner in an excellent atmosphere, very green, all sustainable. Super service and food cooked to a very high standard. Since we were so enthusiastic about the first evening, we also spent the next evening in the restaurant Animal and tried the sushi. Super fresh and just perfect! Unfortunately, on the third evening we went to a star restaurant of one of Lisbon's star chefs (Avillez), which we regretted very much afterwards, as it was just a big and expensive disappointment!

4.5/10The manager talked too much and was a bit overbearing. The place was empty; it lacked more of a night/dinner environment. Food was okay, but not great.
