Portofino Pizzeria Bar Cafe em Lisboa

OK, it's not some 3-star Michelin restaurant. So it probably doesn't deserve the full 5-star "best restaurant I've ever been to" rating. But we absolutely love it, so it gets the 5 stars. We have a condo around the corner and we come here often. This is the real deal. The owner is Italian and it shows. Just great food. Never had a bad meal here. Tonight we brought 4 cousins here with us, and they said it was the best meal they had in Lisbon. Go figure. The atmosphere is early "hole-in-the-wall". It's cozy -- that means really small. You'll never get the bad table because all the tables are pretty bad(!) But the food.....mouth-watering. Great pizza. Great pasta. Great salads. The carbonara is as good as any we had in Rome. The service is just right. Not overbearing, but there when you need it. (Of course, there's very little place for the servers to go, so I guess they're always right there when you need them!) Lastly, the pricing is shockingly low for the uninitiated.

Cantina muito boa em Lisboa. Pedimos pizza e não nos decepcionamos. Massa fina, grande e muito recheada. Nos sentimos na Itália!!! E na hora da conta fomos agraciados com um copinho de vinho do Porto.
