Local chefs are the way to go, and I would recommend this experience as a must-add for anyone visiting Lisbon.

  Experiencia sensacional. Surpreendeu positivamente, todos os pratos estavam deliciosos.

  Dinner by Mateus was one of the best experiences I had while in Lisbon (and for comparison, I ate a 10-course prefix menu at a Michelin star restaurant). Mateus has... read more a lovely space and is incredibly accommodating of dietary restrictions while maintaining a connection to traditional Portugeuse cuisine. The care and thoughtfulness with which he created an elevated menu and took us through a culinary journey with regional context was truly wonderful. I am gluten free and Mateus made some incredible gluten free bread and cake that allowed me to experience Portugeuse classics that are quite difficult to get elsewhere in Lisbon. My wife is pescatarian and was able to enjoy traditional dishes that were made deliciously vegetarian. The menu was 5 courses, plated beautifully, and accompanied by a starter drink and wine throughout. Overall, I would recommend this to anyone who is looking for an intimate and delicious experience!

The food was AMAZING!!!!Mateus and his brother were so sweet and... read more nice -from the minute we booked the experience, they made us feel welcome and their attention to detail was incredible.
