Message: [QUOTE="Rafael Tonon, Miguel Pires, post: 9210"] [IMG]https://platform.eater.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/chorus/uploads/chorus_asset/file/8752501/alma-lisbon-dining-room__1_.0.jpg?quality=90&strip=all&crop=0,0,100,100[/IMG] Inside Restaurante Alma. | Nuno Correia A food-loving visitor will quickly learn that sardines, [URL='https://www.eater.com/2017/6/28/15870974/portuguese-food-traditional-cuisine']cod[/URL], and the iconic [URL='https://www.eater.com/2017/6/28/15867646/best-egg-tarts-lisbon-where-to-eat']pastel de nata[/URL] are great, but the Lisbon restaurant scene can offer much more. Portuguese cuisine draws on global flavors from the country’s centuries of trade, and Lisbon’s restaurateurs have access to top-quality fish and seafood, unique cheeses, lovely wines, and vegetables from organic farms just outside the city. In a capital experiencing lightning-fast growth, Lisbon’s food scene mediates the collision of old and new, weaving together trendy wine bars, Michelin-starred restaurants, traditional and casual venues, and neo-tascas (modern neighborhood restaurants) that combine aspects of all of the above. We update this list quarterly to make sure it reflects the ever-changing Lisbon dining scene. Our write-ups include insider tips from our experienced writers and editors, as well as a rough range of pricing for each destination — ranging from [B]$[/B] for quick, inexpensive meals with dishes largely under $10 (or the equivalent in euros), to [B]$$$$[/B] for places where entrees exceed $30. [B]New to the map in October 2025:[/B] Among the best bets right now are Zunzum Gastrobar, where chef Marlene Vieira of Michelin-starred Marlene serves contemporary Portuguese dishes with global flair in a casual spot; DoBeco, a brunch-friendly hangout that’s as much about coffee and pastries as it is about pulled pork buns; and Jorge D’Amália, a tiny tasca in Ajuda where the bitoque and other tavern staples keep tradition alive; and Para Wine Bistro, a chic wine bar with a tight menu and a particularly excellent by-the-glass wine selection.
