This was one of the best meals I had in Portugal. The tuna tartare was a true stand out. The cod was perfectly cooked. The bread and butter, while seemingly simple had this unforgettable truffle taste. And the corn bread, yum! I can't deny eating the entire basket of bread... Ended with the hazelnut dessert because it's clearly a must. The exploding olives weren't for me but that's my only "complaint." Portions were huge. So I would suggest sharing multiple dishes with someone else. A delicious meal that I am still thinking of days later.

This place came highly recommended by not only hotel staff but also the Bolt drivers. Having had the chance to dine in I see why. This is a place that not only cares about curating a nice atmosphere, but goes above and beyond in service and food quality. It'll be one of the places I return to if I'm ever back in Lisboa.

The sea bass tartare was amazing - the sauces were great complements and the portion was generous. The crackers were delicious and accompanied the tartare well! I just wish there were more crackers. However, one of the best tartare I've had! SERVICE // The service is really friendly! I ordered the tartare and it's about a 15-minute wait since they are preparing fresh, which gives me enough time to browse other vendors nearby. ATMOSPHERE // It's in the Time Out market, which is foodcourt-style. It's very crowded at peak times and gets very hectic, but there are lots of food options! Seating might seem intimidating since it's so busy, but people clear out quite quickly.

The restaurant looks modern and classy - I just love the use of mirrors. The waiting staff were very helpful and recommended the rabbit baklava with pistachio for my starter. I was visiting on my own, and this help was most appreciated. It was dinner time and I was ready for my fill. I love seafood, so the sea bass with mashed potato and vegetables was a great way to continue my meal. I waited with anticipation of this treat. It was cooked to perfection and made me very happy indeed. The food was all amazing to eat and this was the best part of the meal for me. Just great! I still had room for dessert as I have a sweet tooth. The Chocolate Duplex with chocolate ice cream was always going to be my choice from the moment I saw it on the menu. I went for it and didn't regret a single bite. If you are in Lisbon, then this is a cool restaurant that you should try for a meal at any time of the day.

I first came here in August 2015 and was pleasantly surprise with the menu and flavours and have been recommending it to everyone who is looking for a cool place to eat where the food is top! Price is quite fair and considering what we have across Europe, even cheap for such high level food and location. Downstairs the cocktails are great and have possibly he best Cosmo I've had in Lisbon. A must, when in Lisbon!

It is a small restaurant so it pays to get reservations far in advance. The interior is kind of like a house, intimate and very comfortable in a minimalist style. Our table had a view that was breathtaking. The design details are great--even the flower vase at the table was beautiful. There are two choices for the set meals--both with the option of wine courses. My wife and I both ordered the option with fewer courses, then I did the wine pairing. Before the meal, they brought us out a sparkling wine and a white port. Both were excellent--my wife had three glasses of the sparkling wine during the meal. All the wines were from Portugal and all were excellent. We had two courses of amuse bouche. The first had a parsnip cream with pine nuts along with this triangle beetroot bites. Both were phenomenal--I would have been happy with a meal of either of them. The next course was tuna, that came with cucumber gazpacho. They matched so well and this was SO good. This was matched with a vina verde grape that had kind of a green tint but matched perfectly Next was bread. This might be considered odd as a course, but exceptional. Not only was the bread perfect, but it came with great gravy, butter, and olive oil (from Portugal). My wife does not even like gravy, but now wants to try to replicate the poultry gravy here. Then the butter was spectacular also. Next was the sea bass. I think this was my favorite course and one of the most incredible bites I have had. The sea bass was moist and flavored so well. Then the sauce was such a great complement, just extraordinary. This was paired with a Portuguese Riesling that was also great. Next was lamb that was paired with a red blend of 65 grapes. It was really good pairing. The lamb was moist and just melted in the mouth. This came with scallions and fennel--included some sweetbreads wrapped in a scallion. I am not a big sweetbread fan, but well done. After that was a dessert that had crème on a pistachio crumble. Really great. There was a Madeira that came with both desserts, again a perfect match. This was followed by a coffee gelato with these little gelatinous cubes of tonic. Just amazing. The final item was not an official course, but a Madeline with tea or coffee. Again, this was so good and I loved the Darjeeling tea. Just a fantastic, incredible meal.

Staff were friendly and welcoming and the restaurant was so beautifully decorated and designed. To be completely candid, I was unimpressed with the Portugal food scene before this meal so I came in with no expectations but they surprised me. Each dish was delicious in their own right, my favorite being the artichoke (OMG! divine) I like how they use the core ingredients in so many ways in each dish. Only areas where I felt EPUR fell (just a little) short was they had limited variety of non-alcoholic drinks--wish they had a non-alcoholic pairing or at least some mocktails and their dessert seemed like an afterthought. Overall, I really enjoyed my night.
