Tentações de Goa

Hole in the wall that leads to an explosion of colour and flavour. Great friendly service, adorable decor (even the menus are festive), and the flavors are unreal. I ate a lot of Indian food over the years but this is truly maybe the best I've had.

This place was a little off the beaten path and hard to find. I had to ask directions a couple of times before I found it and let me tell you, it was well worth the effort. The interior is small, cozy and welcoming. Our server was great and very quick. The food was just perfect. With the right level of spicy and flavor. The prawn samosas were delicious, the chicken Xacuti so tasty and for dessert the Bibic and Mango ice cream helped offset the heat from dinner. If you want to taste great goan food, outside of Goa then this is the place to go.

As a Goan I went out looking for Goan cuisine nearby nearby our boarding and I happened to come across this restaurant named Tentagoes de Goa. I happened to take Pork Vindaloo and chicken xacutti. However I was taken by surprise as I opened the container at my apartment. The food was not even near to the authentic Goan style. Vindaloo was made of cumin and pepper masala and the xacutti simply made out of garam masala. The worst part was the quantity which was not not even the quarter of the container. Not enough for even one serving. It seemed like someone's leftover. The price didn't justify the quality and quantity. Worst experience of a life time. Hope there was negative rating that I could use to describe them. Anyways be careful if you come across this restaurant. Not recommended at all.

Bit hidden place in Lisbon’s tiny gullies. Recommended if you are looking for Goan (Indian) food. Recommended food crab curry and Chicken xacuti

We were without Indian food for 10+ days in Lisbon, so decided to give this restaurant a shot. They have all the typical north Indian style entrees and of course Goan inspired ones as well. The place is small so make reservations especially Friday + weekends or you will wait too long. Got samosas for appetizers and they were good. Entrees we got the chicken vindaloo and a shrimp dish - both were good and we went really fast.The fresh rotis were also well done. My wife like the food so much she ordered something for takeout. Good place for Indian food in Lisbon.

Pros: Excelente!!! Amazing authentic Goan food. Love the food, I will recommend for entré: samosa, for drink: Mango juice, for dessert: mango ice cream. Mango juice was so amazing, something I missed living in Alemania. Con: pay with cash!

Quite simply the best meal I had in Lisbon. The fish curry was absolutely delicious and satisfying. The wine paired well. Service was efficient for how busy it was. Highly recommend you check this place out if you're new to Goa cuisine or have a craving.

So a little tough to find an definitely cozy. But good food the shrimp balchao and fried mirchi hit my spice needs. No frills, good service. The Fried Michi was excellent. The flavors of the shrimp were great, but were slightly over cooked but really good value for money.
