"At this unobtrusive taberna in the enchanting Chiado neighborhood, chef-owner André Magalhães presents flavorful and inventive dishes to share. As the waiter walks you through the blackboard menu, you might hear about how the kitchen team was inspired by an old recipe the chef dug up, a fresh ingredient Magalhães brought from the market, or a dish from the growing local Asian immigrant communities. Magalhães is particularly interested in the connections between the cuisines of Portugal and its former colonies, where the chef has traveled extensively to learn about local foodways." - Rafael Tonon, Miguel Pires
"Small taverns with daily menus chalked on the door used to line the streets of Lisbon, but unfortunately, most of them are long gone. So we embrace spots like Taberna da Rua das Flores. Opened in Chiado a little over ten years ago, it's become a main attraction because of its old-school style. You won’t find many locals here—the ten tables inside the narrow space are typically scooped up by travelers who put their name down on the list before the restaurant opens at 6pm. But still, the food is excellent, and no dish is over €20. Plan to line up as early as 5pm, and go with someone who wants to share things like codfish with chickpeas, seared beef cubes called pica pau, smoked artichokes, and stingray." - rita geraldes
