Restaurants in Lisbon
We have never been to Portugal and staying in Lisbon for 2 days. We are staying at My Story Hotel which is centrally located and would like restaurants in the area. We love seafood, Italian, most anything that the area is known fr. Medium price with nice atmosphere....suggestions??

For certain, go to Ramiro. You CAN make advance reservations there. But you probably have to take a taxi;I don't know your hotel, but taxis are not pricey. When I think of great seafood restaurants in my life, I think of, among others, Ramiro. It is not at all fancy. Ask to sit downstairs if you want to watch the action.
Thank you, HappyT!

Don't know what those last posts are about but agree that saying you want Portuguese food and then asking for Italian is at best weird. Can't help with posh restaurants, but there is a bare bones in the center with the best chicken. Not the best I have had in Portugal, that was many years ago in a little fishing village, but the best I get these days. Look for Bom Jardim.

re: Bom Jardim - When we told people we were going to Lisbon, several friends recommended this place. When we got there, we scratched our heads, and thought "Really?" - it really is cheap and cheerful.
That said, the chicken was really, really good - I'd eat there again without hesitation.
