Olá Lisboa

What a wonderful place. We came for lunch, wasnt crowded at all. Their wine is good. Portions are great, we enjoyed both meals. Mango lemonade was also pretty good! Definitely visit this place

Our tour guide recommended this place for lunch, despite being a large group, we managed to get a seat outside in the sun. I ordered a beer, and the garlic prawns and salad, in the sun this combination was heavenly! The beer was nice and cold, the salad tasted fresh and crisp, and the prawns soaked in garlic sauce and cooked nicely were to die for!

The food was below average and the price was really a tourist trap. Everything was salty. Loved the atmosphere though.

Ola Lisboa – Great Food, But Watch Out for the Water Trap! Let me start with the biggest downside of our visit to Ola Lisboa: the €7.50 bottle of sparkling water that felt like a tourist scam. When the bill came, I was shocked—how could water cost more than a plate of sardines (€8.50) or nearly as much as a beer or wine? I asked the waiter, but he just smiled, leaving me feeling like an easy target. If you dine here, avoid the bottled water and order a drink instead—it’s cheaper! Now, onto the good part—the food was excellent. We had the combination platter for two (€29)**, loaded with fried peppers, crispy calamari, goat cheese wrapped in ham, dates, and garlic shrimp. Everything was flavorful and filling. The fried sardines (€8.50) were a highlight—so fresh and delicious that we devoured them whole, heads and all! Dessert was a crème brûlée, which was decent, though the sugar crust was too thick and the cream could’ve been smoother. Ola Lisboa serves authentic, tasty Portuguese dishes at fair prices—but the **ridiculous water charge** left a bad impression. If they were transparent about pricing (or just charged reasonably), this would be a solid 5-star spot. As it stands, **enjoy the food, but keep an eye on the bill!**

This is a nice place for good seafood. The starters are the star of the show: loved the pimientos, and the potatoes (though the sauce was average), and finally the figs with sheep cheese. For the mains, the salmon was excellent. I wasn’t a huge fan of the redfish but the swordfish was good. The almond and orange sauces are both nice, but work with different things. For fish I’d recommend the orange one, but the almond one works much better for the veggies.
