Pedro Lemos Restaurante

This Michelin-starred Portuguese restaurant is worthy of praise in terms of decoration and service. The waiter served us in suits and felt like a VIP. We ordered Portuguese roast chicken, cod fish and authentic food, which tasted good.

Let me tell you a secret. I don’t tell most people about it, but I find that lamb chops are sometimes more delicious than steak, and they are both delicious when cooked in western restaurants.

The food was amazing, the combination of flavours were surprising and enticing. The service could use more Michelin-level training. The snacks were beautifully presented until the server tipped it over when showing us the wine list - he proceeded to clean up but with no apologies which made us feel it was out fault as the table was tiny, and the bowl the snacks came in had a tiny foot - not great as accidents will and did happen.We ordered a bottle wine, but they thought we had wine pairing and started to serve until a colleague stopped him but without telling us, until he came back with the bottle of wine. When our server took our order, we had added an extra cheese plate, and he said he will check with us at dessert if we still want it. He did, and we said to cancel it - however, another server came and said it was already prepared - it's cheese, they could have cancel it, but we took it anyways. So, overall, the service needs to be improved for the level of restaurant that it is.

We started our food experience at the Altis Porto hotel which was very good the next night we went to 5 oceans which was even better then the next night we went to cozinha do Manel which was even better than that then the last night we came to pedro lemons and what an experience, it was of the highest standard.There was no better way to finish off our trip of visiting your beautiful city.

So perfect in any aspect. No clue why Michelin awarded not 2 Stars. I was eating at 2 Star restaurants which were not at this level.
