Manteigaria is a charming little shop that delivers one of the most satisfying and authentic pastel…read morede nata experiences you will find in Lisbon. What makes it special is watching the pastries being handmade right in front of you, which adds a level of freshness and craftsmanship that you can actually taste. The service was super fast and friendly. The pastel de nata came out perfectly, with that delicate flaky crust and warm custard that just hits differently when you know it was made moments ago. The espresso was equally impressive, rich and smooth, and the two together make for a simple but near perfect combination. If you are in the area, this is an easy and very satisfying stop.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

Oh no. Am I the only one who doesn't like the pastel de nata custard tarts this restaurant is so…read morefamous for? The crust was super flaky and the tart was nice and warm out of the oven, but I didn't like the flavor of the custard. I did forget to add cinnamon to the top, but I don't think it would have helped me personally. The woman who stood next to me at the counter had a nearly orgasmic experience next to me, so it's obvious that my taste buds are apparently off. I loved the patience of the server, who got confused when I told her I wanted to eat in but wanted to take water to go. Note to self...Portuguese folks want to have their "to go" as "takeaway." What I also didn't know was that there was no place to sit!! I scooted down the counter just like all the other folks to watch the bakers prep the next gozillion pastries for the day. That was interesting. Then, I didn't know how to bus my dishes. I just left them on the counter like all the other folks and went away. I wouldn't skip going because of my personal taste buds, though. Enjoy it for yourself and let me know if you have a different opinion than I did!

The wait is rather slow but understandable. They have a full menu from breakfasts to dinner as most restaurants and cafes here. I think the prices are very reasonable and the portions aren't ginormous compare to an American dining experience that I'm accustomed to. I tried the plain grilled cutttle fish with ink which, comes with their version of white rice. It tasted as i expected. It didn't have extra oomph in flavors. I think they stick with the basic salt and nothing else as seafood I think, can be left alone as plainly salted. No surprises or extra presentations but looks and tastes good with cold beers. Cleanliness is at par and inexpensive.
