Faz Figura

Quite the meal at Faz Figura! It was a bit off as we were the only ones dining there - but the good and service were excellent. We had the couvert, scallops starter, house salad, lamb, and pork. Everything was very well-prepared and delicious. The pork belly was absolutely incredible - one of the best dishes I had in Portugal.

Unsuspecting exterior hosts a very nice restaurant behind its doors. The sea bass was lovely but the orange sauce has more of a mango flavor - still cleared my plate. The toasted brioche is good but could use a scoop of vanilla ice cream on the side to really take it up a notch.

Beautiful view. Feels like they put a roof onto a square. Really liked the location. We didn’t eat a whole lot at Faz Figura. I don’t accept to load a menu on my phone from QR code or anyway. We already get way too much screen time. I asked that they bring a paper menu and they declined. Then I asked that the waitress read to me the menu, because I’m not going to a sit down restaurant, slow food, and read a menu from a screen. She was clearly surprised and had no idea what to do. I hope next time I visit they will have a better alternative. If not, I might not stay if they do get another visit from me. A small chalk board with pertinent items might solve this problem. Also just having a few paper menus from fussy customers like me might be a good start. Innovation where it’s due. Old school where we don’t need innovation. Also a clear display at the table that they do not accept non cash forms of payment would be a logical common courtesy. Thank you!

Great river view. Very good quality food, beautiful presentation and subtle flavors. Would give at least four stars, if not five, if it was only for the food. Minus: waiter could not recommend wines to combine with the food. The one we ordered was clearly off (strange color and flavor) but seemed normal to the waiter. Restaurant not well cleaned. We sat close to the windows and it was dirty in and out, and so was the toilet.

Hake with cured ham is so good. Must try. The dessert was delicious. 10/10 perfect

Most fabulous lunch we had in Portugal as Americans! Ruben was amazingly sweet and provided us with a bucket of ice and constantly refilled our water and wine! We recommend the house salad with Tuna TarTare and Chocolate Vaso for dessert! Coldest ice water in all of Europe!

For a special occasion. Nice view of the Tejo. We had a table on the terrace. As it was a lovely evening it was open. Romantic atmosphere. The food and wine is excellent. Service professional, kind and attentive. Altogether a great experience well worth the money.

The new Faz Figura in Taguspark is a great experience for executive lunch. Great dishes made of good quality ingredients, good wine included in the executive menu, nice waiters who know what they are talking about. Space outside will be great for summer night dinners. Parking availability and good accessibility for wheelchairs.
