3 Days in Lisbon our incredible itinerary

As if Portuguese cuisine wasn't delicious enough, there are a plethora of the best restaurants in Lisbon that you definitely shouldn't miss on your trip.

If you ever find yourself in Lisbon, be sure to check out a few of them. Now, I've tried to present a selection of my favorites from all over the city. This means that no matter which neighborhood you visit, you'll probably find one relatively close by.

With that in mind, take a look at some of the best restaurants in Lisbon to try. Have the best trip.

1. Augusto Lisbon

If you are looking for a tasty brunch, be sure to head to Augusto Lisboa which will make a great way to spend a day exploring Lisbon. This little café in the Alfama district is a great place to start your day.

You can stock up on delicious homemade treats before exploring the São Jorge Castle and the winding streets of the neighborhood. This is truly one of the best restaurants in Lisbon for an early morning feast.

2. Crisfama

Now, if you are looking for typical Portuguese cuisine, be sure to stop by Crisfama. Not only that, but the restaurant is also charming and intimate and the portions are very generous.

Honestly, this is a great place to go for dinner; especially after a long day exploring the best spots in Lisbon. Their fresh grilled fish is so good.

3. At Venda Lusitana

For me, A Venda Lusitana is one of the best restaurants in Lisbon to visit for Portuguese tapas. I really loved their Portuguese sausages and cheese. It was so good.

Don't be fooled by the owner's somewhat cumbersome advice, he just wants to tell you the best things to try.

Additionally, they also offer a tasty wine list.

4. A Avo Tinha

Another Lisbon gem, A Avo Tinha is not far from Fonte Luminosa and easily ranks among the best restaurants in Lisbon.

Once there, be sure to try their black pork lagartinhos, sardinhas and their grilled alheira which is so good. Not only that, but A Avo Tinha also has a totally welcoming and warm atmosphere.

5. Pasteis de Belem

It is impossible to go to Lisbon without tasting the pasteis de nata. This Portuguese pastry is a treat for the taste buds! Taste this little flan and you will not be disappointed. To be enjoyed on the banks, in the sun, still warm.

6. Flower of the Escadinhas

A very small restaurant that doesn't look like much. Here you can taste the specialties of Portuguese cuisine. The dishes are around 12 euros.

Local cuisine, with excellent service. Don't miss the delicious sardines in green wine.

7. Final point

My favorite is the Ponto Final restaurant. It is located on the other side of the Tagus, you can easily get there by ferry in less than 10 minutes. The crossing costs 1.25 euros.

This restaurant offers a beautiful view of the city of Lisbon. Here you can taste all the typical dishes of Portugal. The cuisine is local and of good quality. The prices are a little higher, of course you pay for the view. But what a joy to eat on the terrace with the sound of the waves.

8. Brigadeirando

Treat yourself to homemade treats, hearty toasts and lovely breakfast platters to share, before setting off to explore the Belem district and the statue of Vasco de Gama.

Brigadeirando offers a truly unforgettable morning feast, and its location in the LX Factory adds a touch of industrial charm to this culinary experience.

9. Time Out Market

If you are tired of pasteis and cod, you can go to the old market halls of Lisbon! Renamed TIME OUT MARKET.

The large halls have been refurbished, in tones of wood and black metal. The tables are aligned in the middle and all around you can discover pretty restaurants! Each one has its own specialty, so you can easily navigate between the bars and taste lots of things...
