Sr. Fado

Fantastic night in Lisbon.
The food was excellent, as was the service and the Fado group were superb. As well as singing Fado, the female singer gave a fascinating insight into the roots and traditions that formed Fado in English.
The food and drinks keep coming (we probably could have had more wine if we asked) and it's a fixed price menu. The hospitality was superb. I did pay EUR320 for 6 of us so £50 each (ish), but it's a full on meal; mystery starters, starters, huge main, amazing dessert, coffee, dessert wine then some kind of paint stripper alcohol.

If you want a Portugese experience, this is where you should go. Amazing host, great food, unbelievable Fabo experience. Loved it.

A great experience, highly recommended for visitors to Lisbon to book in advance to dine at this restaurant and experience the fado show and local culture.
The seafood in tomato sauce was to our liking, fresh and plentiful. The coffee mousse for dessert was not too sweet and we almost ate it all.
The host and hostess were kind and considerate, interacting with the guests throughout the show. They did a great job in cooking the food, welcoming us to the restaurant and putting on the show. It was raining heavily on Wednesday night but the restaurant was full with guests. We were lucky that our reservation was late but was accepted.
I don't understand the bad reviews some people have given. We had already paid over fifty euros for a glass of wine at a flamenco restaurant in Madrid, and for the same price we enjoyed a wonderful three-course dinner and fado show at this Lisbon restaurant.

What a great place for food and fado music! The staff and owners are incredibly friendly and seem to enjoy the evening as much as their clients do. We enjoyed the atmosphere the three fado musicians/singers created. Certainly a place a would recommend to friends and family.

If you looking for a real fado and family access to people, you should visit this place. Ana Marina and his husband Duarte Santos are very friendly hosts. First of all you have to contact them via email or phone and make a reservation - not at the earliest evening but one. Because the number of places is limited. We got exactly what we want. Memories for absolutely amazing meal, friendly access, and 1 hour of Fado when after or before each song was explained about the song is. We got very high expectations. Muito obrigado por tudo!!!

I am sending photos only with food and part of interior because I don’t have allow of other people who were there. 🙂

Wonderful experience, excellent food and music with amazing people. Thank you for everything.

WARNING! Please make sure you don’t have anything to eat the whole day before visiting this wonderful establishment. We had such a fantastic evening: a combination of beautiful hosts, delicious and plentiful food and heart stirring Fado. Informative information and cozy environment topped it off. The ambiance was convivial as the hosts did their best to engage the audience. Although you might not understand the words, Fado is something that is interpreted by the heart. Anybody’s heart.

What an amazing evening. Despite managing to arrive a day early for our booking (!), we were still shown to a table. The staff could not have been nicer if they had tried. The menu is set but we had the seafood which was delicious. And then there is the fado itself, which was fantastic. We had such a great evening, great value and worth fighting for a reservation.

Sr. Fado offered an excellent dinner and Fado show! Highly recommend.

A must for sure. A super fun experience that you will tell all of your friends. For starters, you need a reservation as this is full each night. It is a full evening experience that lasts over 4 hours. What I loved about this is the passion that Duarte and Mariana have for Portugal and the Portuguese culture. They prepare the food and serve the food. Full of flavor. There were 4 of us and we had the seafood and the pork. Incredible flavors. The wine is made from their farm. Also they were the ones that perform as well they both are super acclaimed in Fado and music and are talented.

We were lucky enough to book on the day and enjoyed our evening with them. You can book via email and then pay a deposit to save your booking. Then they will email you to pay in their bank account. After that you will receive the confirmation email.
The restaurant is located in the narrow street and you need to walk a little bit after getting off the taxi.

As soon as we got into the restaurant, we truly felt welcomed by them. The food were super good and we also made new friends. 💛 Their music was so beautiful and our experience was truly amazing.

I hope you all experience their music, food and good laughs!

We visited on Tuesday 27th February 2024. This was such a wonderfully gorgeous night. The restaurant has a cosy atmosphere, the food is lovely and was just the right amount as was the wine, and the singing and music is so heartfelt. I could quite happily go there again and hope to maybe next year.

Without question a beautiful Lisbon experience!

Fado music is typical to Lisbon and was born in Alfama where this restaurant is located. From the moment you enter you’re greeted with a smile and open arms. A full three-course meal to follow. Then you’re met with 3 performers who play live Fado in the restaurant. A brief history of Fado comes with it. An experience to never forget and to recommend everyone!

Great local place for quality food...fresh and tasty. Attentive service.

Fabulous night at Sr Fado Wonderful food, atmosphere ,super friendly service, and topped off with stunning fado musicians and fado songstress. On top of that was given a beautiful print to take for memories treat yourself !

Loved it. Absolutely loved it. The atmosphere was perfect. Small and intimate. Homely and welcoming. The food was outstanding.

I had been most looking forward to the food, and I was much more than satisfied. Fresh, seasoned beautifully, and clearly made with care. But the owners were a joy too. It didn’t cross my mind that I would have enjoyed the owners as much as I did. Lovely people to talk too. Informative. Interested in you as a guest. Willing to share all about their food, and also what they know of fado.

They’re both great singers. Marina’s voice put shivers down my spine. Quiet and delicate and one point, then suddenly nothing but power and emotion the next. Not a cheap night out, but it was worth every cent.

The best food and overall experience we’ve had in Lisbon! The food was delicious - I can’t recommend the octopus enough. My husband got the steak and it was equally good. The service was great and in sync with the Fado performance (respectful not to serve meals while the singers were singing).

Great place for authentic Fado and food. Great experience in Lisbon. You have to make reservations via email and they do require half of the meal upfront via PayPal. Seems sketchy but it’s 100% legit. It is a prefix and is 48 euros per person. It includes food and wine. Will come again next time we are in town.

Great Fado experience! Very nice staff and explanation of Fado in English very helpful! Fun and wonderful evening!

What a fantastic night. I would warmly recommend this to anyone visiting Lisbon. Only 25 seats so make sure you book. Start with some lovely cheese and cold meats with bread olives and wine. Then choose the fishy or meaty dinner. We had the fishy one with large prawns and muscles and fish in a gorgeous bisque full of flavour. Then cheesecake to finish. Then the music starts and they welcome guest players and singers as well as your hosts singing until the early hours. Thank you for. Most enjoyable night with very hospitable and friendly staff.
