Estrela da Bica

lovel service great food

The octopus was delicious, but everything else was a bit disappointing. The portions are quite small for these prices. And as if they are afraid of the stereotype that Portuguese food is too salty, they don't use enough salt and the food is bland.

Great place to be with friends

One of my favorite restaurants in Lisbon. Charmoso

Absolute delicious food. Great value. Fabulous and broad variety of hugely tasty options. We literally finished every mouthful. Our favourite restaurant in Lisbon by far.

Exquisito!

I come here every time I go to Lisbon. Can’t be beat on food taste, atmosphere and friendly staff. Love the Bica area too. Came with big group the first time then a few times with my husband. Everyone loved it. Desserts are a must too. Til next time .....

Wonderful place!

The food was amazing. We liked that the portions were not to big, so you could taste more dishes and share. And the service had a very personal touch.

It was our second visit and I found the staff very friendly and helpful. However, I found the portions and quality were not the same as our last visit 2 years ago.

I love the cozy feel of this place. I wish that they still had the daily specials. I wonder if they could bring back more variety and change the menu more frequently like they used to?

We made a reservation in the afternoon as we had heard that this restaurant was very popular. Glad we did as it was busy all evening. The food was modern but very authentic Portuguese. It was fantastic to eat something different! We loved the combinations of flavours. Loved the craft beer too! The staff were very friendly and efficient. We would definitely eat here again when we are in Lisbon.

Very Nice dishes. Waters super friendly! Food was served very quickly. I think it’s safer to make a reservation if you want to eat around 9 pm. Place was packed then. We had a great time.

I had the reservation time wrong, so got to the restaurant 1 hour late...staff was lovely and squeezed us in. We loved each offering, but the beet dish and bean and chorizo were my faves. Also great — octopus, and the cod crudo . Crazy good! Thinking of trying to get back in tonight.

No fuss, just well considered local food expertly prepared and flawlessly presented. Warm and welcoming hosts, attentive and there when you need them. 2-3 tapas plates sufficient and cash only. Will return for sure.

Really nice little tapas place squeezed in just next to the Ascencor da Biqa, so you´re in the middle of a very typical part of Town. Really nice and welcoming staff. I can definitely recommend this restaurant.

Delicious food and wine. Lovely atmosphere. The wait for our bill was a little long-25 mins but they were busy. Would highly recommend the food.

Amazing, beyond description. Very original dishes, well prepared and presented by genuine people who care about food and customers. The complete opposite of all the 'tapas' (?!) and nonsense that cities like LIsbon tend to succumb to. We've been three times and will make a point of doing so again, next time we are in town. DO go here for something true, fresh and honest – but remember to book ahead. Be aware that it's not the easiest of places to locate, so allow extra time to get there.

Authentic food and atmosphere. Loved the hostess, waiters and waitresses. Highly reccomended ! A real Portuguese experience. Try the pork tacos

Excellent Portuguese food rivisited, small different dishes to share. Recommended.
