Restaurante Bom Garfo Bairo Alto

Random discovery in Lisbon, after a bit of research. Simple traditional Portuguese dinner, but with a twist - a local music ensemble singing and playing "Fado" for guests. Apparently they do it for food and tips only .... 🙄

Touristy? Maybe. But I can't really imagine a nicer place for our first night and dinner in Lisbon. We had a lovely time, with warm people, a bottle of good wine, and some laughs. Life is good.

It is the best Arroz de mariso experience in Portuguese at that price. It is quite surprising that when I enter the restaurant round 6-7pm, only very few costumers in the restaurant.

Excellent Fado singers/musicians playing when I went. Not intrusive, but very good. The food was excellent. Everything was made well and seasoned wonderfully. Fun tiny bar next door with club music and great staff. The restaurant staff were also very good. 10s across the board!

I went to Bairro Alto for fado and I'm happy to have found this place which had good food and a live fado show. It was a beautiful and great experience!

The restaurant was empty when I entered, with a staff member in the streets stopping all passer-byes trying to entice customers. I was one of these and entered although I would normally not trust a space that had someone seemingly begging for attention outside. The staff inside was very kind and explained loca dishes, helped me choose food and drink, and even taught me how to de-bone a fish. It was a peaceful and welcoming environment. I recommend it if you would like a bit more quiet than the rest of the street offers.

This restaurant caters for a great quality food accompanied by beautiful national fado music and all that for an absolutely fair price! (eg average big portion of fish with side is 12-18€)
Rare bonus: a menu in 5 languages and an extra menu w Italian dishes.
Enjoy!

The place looks really cheap from outside like a snackbar once you are inside it is actually a nice restaurant and before we were joking about snackbar fado but as a musician myself i can assure you that the music and the singers were really good... deserves much more visitors... the owner should change his front...

Fabulous experience and the food is absolutely amazing highly recommend this restaurant
