If you're looking for a fine dining experience with an excellent young local chef, this is a fantastic find. The food was incredible. Expect more of a restaurant vibe from... read more the hosts, and lots of time to spend with new friends at the table. Thoughtful customizations for dietary needs, too, so fear not if you're vegan, GF, or veg.

I attended this unique dinner experience and it was the best way to end my trip to Lisbon! The menu and decorations were so detailed and thorough. We were treated... read more to a delicious starter, main, and dessert! (I really enjoyed the codfish main and those homemade biscuits too!) What stood out most was the wonderful host Mateus and his lovely brother, Marco - very welcoming and accommodating. I also appreciated how they took the time to talk through the unique menu. I was solo travelling and ended up meeting people at this experience who I’ve stayed in contact with since I’ve returned from Lisboa! Highly recommend booking this experience, whether you’re travelling with friends, family or solo! Obrigado ! X

We greatly enjoyed the delicious meal with the numerous tastings. The passionfruit drink was quite refreshing with the Beirao liqueur. The bacalhau dish was the best that I tasted... read more on our three-week trip to Portugal. It was fun meeting new people and the tablescape and presentation of the food showed much attention to detail. The dessert was very tasty. The wine was plentiful and added to the pleasure of the meal and conversation. We also enjoyed learning about the history of the food and Portugal through your thoughtful selection of the food used in the tasting.

Amazing food in terms of variety, quality and cultural context. The level of care and attention to the meals, including modifications for dietary restrictions and preferences were greatly appreciated... read more and the expertise really showed through in the cooking of each dish. Had the best gluten-free bread and delicious cauliflower rice! Mateus’s brother was also an amazing host so they truly make quite the duo.
If anything I wish they provided some ice breakers for us as guests and had hoped we had gotten to chat more during the course of dinner, but the lack of these things didn’t take away from the dinner and speaks to how dedicated they were to making sure our dishes turned out as good as possible and came out in a timely fashion. Thank you both for such a lovely time!
