5 must try local restaurants in Lisbon

Traditional food never goes out of style, it’s a must to try traditional portuguese food in the right spots.

So here are 5 local restaurants that I love and recommend:

Solar dos Presuntos - you’re must try local restaurant in the city center, try a Bitoque or Octopus à Lagareiro 

Bifanas do Afonso - you need to try a Bifana and yes, although this is the hyped spot, this is where they’re really worth it 

Versailles - perfect for a quick traditional lunch amongst all the locals in the middle of their work day. The croquettes here are a must try and the bitoque. 

Gambrinus - one of the oldest and most charming restaurants in Lisbon

Das Flores - a simple tasca with amazing amazing food, don’t miss it
