Both the food and extraordinary service at Alma make it the best restaurant in Lisbon. Each dish is presented beautifully and consists of amazing textures and complex and interesting tastes. The servers are knowledgable and warm and most of all professional. One of our favorite restaurants anywhere.

Situated in the lower level of a large Princely mansion, the coveted  16 tufted high chairs aroundThe U shaped bar are the setting for the GASTRONOMIC SYMPHONY. Each diner is a member of the audience. The chef conducts his staff, providing the most glorious presentations and delectable offerings. The maestro discusses the presentations . At the same time the sous chefs are putting the finishing touches on the dishes. The offerings are presented and plated in front of the guest, while watching the various presentations around the bar. The atmosphere is open yet intimate. Each reservation is separate while being part of the total experience. The food! It&#39;s a &quot; symphony&quot;Of textures and tastes. The melding of a spice to an herb to a protein. Truly an experience. An OUTSTANDING EXPERIENCE.Now, one drawback. The building is historic. As a result there is no elevator. If you are handicapped, not able to walk, then unfortunately you will not be able to experience TWO MONKEYS.

The steak buns are of great quality! The beef inside is very chewy and juicy. In addition, their queen rolls are also very delicious, the cake is soft and the cream inside is not greasy at all! ! Durian pan tart is also one of my favorites, with a super rich durian filling, a must-have for durian lovers~

This restaurant is amazing!! So why didn&#39;t it enter the food forest recommended by Ctrip? Such a high score, much better than many other reviews! The white wine is also unexpectedly good quality, 4 euros a person~ I ordered these three for your reference~

Besides getting to the restaurant late, the staff was amazing and very attentive. The food is amazing, the flavours are what you&#39;re expecting from Portuguese cuisine.
