The best meat restaurants Lisbon Area

Between Bairro Alto and the Principe Real gardens, this restaurant offers unrivalled views of the Lisbon hills. Spend a pleasant moment indoors behind the large bay window, or on the terrace in fine weather. The atmosphere is welcoming, and the walls feature photos of the Argentine Pampas that invite you to travel. In fact, this South American country is very much in evidence, since the original speciality of this establishment in 1998 was to serve grilled Argentine meat. Today, it offers a wider variety.

A good place to eat traditional dishes, in existence since 1970. Located not far from the station, you can spot the restaurant's entrance by its azulejo sign. Inside, the rustic decor evokes the Portuguese countryside, typical of any self-respecting traditional restaurant. A wide choice of dishes à la carte, including fish, meat and "combinados", something for everyone. Beware, if you don't specify, they tend to charge for what is known here as the "couvert" (bread, olives, etc.).

Meat lovers will be delighted with this address. Chef Luís Gaspar serves matured meat to delight your taste buds. The menu offers a variety of cuts (flank steak, rump steak, entrecôte, filet, chateaubriand, T-bone...). To accompany your meat, you can choose from a range of sauces and accompaniments. The decor has a bistro feel, with leather banquettes and wooden tables. You can also eat at the counter.
