    Perfect date spot to try Avillez's creative, Michelin star winning food at incredible affordable prices -- 30 euro pp including wine. Prego steak sandwich with egg, Hazelnut^3, professor eggs.

    Maybe Chef's Avillez best restaurant! Traditional Portuguese food with a twist. You must try the tuna tartar and the scallops. If you like beef tartar this is one of the best in town!

    Puns tartare is awesome. The steak is really great. Trust the staff recommendations,we didn't go wrong. The triple hazelnut dessert was also amazing. Highly recommended!

    A relaxed and comfortable atmosphere, with a simple but sophisticated cuisine by Lisbon's most awarded chef. Informal but unmissable

    My favourite Professor's eggs go really well with bread. Tried also the cod and hazelnut^3. Food is good but would have expected more variation in flavour from a two star Michelin chef restaurant.

    The professor's eggs, the hazelnut cubed and the steak sandwich are divine. Great place for a romantic date night!

    Had the tartare, but god, what were those fries!? Avillez managed to make french fries taste unforgettable!! The codfish and the hazelnut desert are awesome to.

    Tunatartar was a bit spicy (too much horseraddish for me 🤧) but portobello risotto and beeftartar were fantastic. It was possible to share those two maincourses with my companion which was fine

    The restaurant is rustic, cozy and a bit small, so make sure you make a reservation. The food is excellent, and I can't wait to go back and try more dishes! Very good bar and gin menu.

    Fantastic food and setting - service was a little sloppy for the style of restaurant but the food was too good to worry overly.

    Hazelnut dessert confirmed as a must, but don’t eat layer by layer : duck very deep to get all flavours combined

    A creative good food, great wines, in a modern atmosphere. A little bit expensive for Lisbon, but everything is made to make you feel at home. To do.

    The best mushroom risotto ever, but cod (photo) and lamb tajine were okay. Cool design of the place. And few molecular touches in the dishes.

    Pork and risotto were great. Strong expresso martinis and delicious appetizers (finger pie) as well.

    Great service and a nice environment. The traditional Prego is really tasty! (Actually, I guess it is one of the best options in the menu, as food in general can be a bit expensive)

    Perfect for dates for its coziness. Good Portuguese cuisine, both fish and meat and good wine selection.

    Cozy and simple decor, inconsistent although occasionally brilliant food, and yet the same clueless ( inefficient, muddled, well-meaning but incompetent) service all too common in the city.

    Sauteed poultry liver and farinheira sausages as starters, and risotto as the main course were more than perfect. What a lovely place.

    The cured tuna starter followed by scallops and a steak made for a perfectly indulgent evening meal. Washed down with a cocktail. Hmmm!

    Cocktails were superb. Food was good but not amazing. I would recommend to share several small dishes and a few mains. Make sure to make a reservation.

    Great atmosphere, the rooms are a bit too dark but the food was really good. A bit expensive... Bad point was that I ask the waiter to shut down or at least block the air con but he refused.

    Nice ambiance, decoration is romantic but food is so so. Waiters are not so informative and knowledgeable about what they are serving. Worth to visit but Do not expect much.
