10/10The food was wonderful, the individual attention, small size and overall dining experience is unique and not to be missed. Invicta was a favorite among the many great meals we had in Lisbon.

10/10This place was a 20 out of 10. Very small - only 6 tables - but absolutely no pressure to hurry and finish. We were greeted by the owner who offered an apperitif (port) to start. We had vinho Verde (Portuguese "green" wine, which is really flavorful white wine), olives, farinheir (sausage hash similar to chorizo but better,), seafood stew, and whole sea bream in a light salt crust. Best fish I've ever eaten. We were unfortunately too full for dessert, but the owner then offered a shot of ?? sort of cinnamon grappa. A complete bargain @ EU85. I hope to go back some day!

4.5/10A good welcome with a small aperitif drink. The restaurant is small and cosy but rather spoilt by the open door and traffic racing by. I assume the owner served us, he kept going out into the street, a bit odd. The starter was OK, some sort of sausage and egg. For the main my husband had the seafood rice which took a lot of work, lots of shellfish to take apart before he could even eat anything and still bits of broken shell and included rice in a thin bisque. My sea bass was swimming in olive oil and very salty, the roast potatoes again were oily and not really roasted. We weren’t asked if we had enjoyed it, we hadn’t. We didn’t stay for dessert. When it came to paying we leant it’s cash only, so my husband has to go out to get some. So I was left sat on my own for 10 minutes. I do think it would be good to know earlier in the meal so you could pop out then. Overall disappointing, it looked good from previous reviews. It also felt expensive compared to previous meals we had enjoyed in Lisbon. We did enjoy some lovely green wine though, so not all bad.

10/10This was honestly a massive highlight of our trip. Antonio looked after us from the moment we arrived and the food was nothing but superb! Everything tasted so fresh and I cannot recommend this restaurant enough. Make sure you get your booking in early to secure a table :)

10/10This restaurant is a little hidden gem in Lisbon and highly recommended. We arrived a but early and enjoyed an alfresco wine tasting at a very small bar nearby. Antonio welcomed us to his restaurant with a complimentary sherry and explained the very fresh fish and seafood available that day which was on display in a refrigerated unit in the restaurant. He chose a very fresh dry white wine for us and served each tasty dish with panache. We enjoyed mussels and shrimp to start then some excellently cooked sea bass. Desserts were lovely too. We finished with a complimentary Portuguese liqueur. All in all a fantastically unique experience. The restaurant itself is very small so you must book in advance in order not to be disappointed and bring cash to pay.

10/10My husband and I had a lovely dinner at Invicta. Antonio was nice and gave us Port wine as welcome drinks. It was our first time trying Port and we definitely loved it! It was so kind of Antonio to also provide us with bread as complimentary starters. We ordered for black seafood pasta and fish of the day and both were absolutely delicious! I especially loved the black seafood pasta which I have never tried before. The seafood were very fresh too. It was a great dining experience - delicious and fresh food, big servings, cosy ambiance, and fantastic service with a personal touch. Highly recommended! We would definitely go back if we ever visit Lisbon again. :)

7/10Location, Food, price and service good but in 2024 it's not possibile to pay only in cash. Technical Problems with POS may occur but, in this case, you must advice customer (especially if it's a foreigner tourist) before the dinner. In my opinion a family with 2 children cannot walk around looking for an ATM machine around midnight (luckily this was not our case only becasue we had enough cash in the pocket).
