The charcoal grilled meat is really good and quite affordable. I got a mix grill option to try everything and was not disappointed. The chicken is where they really excel, but I also enjoyed the alheira sausage. Note that the alheira has a high bread content so it won't taste like regular sausage. However, you should really be prepared to fight for it; in particular, be aggressive about placing your order as it is unlikely they will ask you without prompting. Prepare to wait awhile as well. It looks like the locals call in ahead of time, but this may be difficult without good Portuguese. read more

Looking for GREAT cheap eats while in Lisbon? Do not I said DO NOT overlook this little TAKEOUT jewel. Honestly this BBQ was so good we almost went back the same night for more and frankly we'd ordered plenty. Great prices, GREAT food and nice people. We called ahead, Uber'd over and it was still a great value when you added the cab fair in! ps....don't pass on the tomato salad and olives... lots simple but they are packed with flavor and pair very well with the meat. read more

Best churrasco in Lisbon. The place is small and has hardly any tables (best as a take out) but the chicken is delicious. Highly recommend it. read more

Had a half chicken, rice, and tomato salad. This was the cheapest meal of my trip to Lisbon, but was the most delicious. Got here early so didn't have to wait long. Highly recommended! read more

Since I'm on keto diet this place was perfect. The only compatible side was olives. (tasted great) I don't really eat chicken. I try to avoid it. But this chicken is amazing. Very flavourful, perfectly spicy. I had to come back again. Ribs are also very good. Maybe a little bit on the tougher side, but the flavor is spot on. Sausages are OK. I would skip them when I go back. The only concern I have is that she used the same kitchen tongs to touch raw chicken and almost done chicken without putting them on the heat to kill any potential bacteria.. (maybe I just lived in the US for too long...) Line was out the door both times and was moving slowly... Cash only. read more

Finger Licking Frango!!! Lick my balls and call me Frango this chicken takeaway joint is an absolute must. Great food and lovely staff with the locals queuing outside to get their Frango fix! read more

Ordered the Mista 1 which comes with 1/2 chicken, ribs, and sausage, also ordered small rice and small salad and shared between 2 people. All the reviews are accurate, definitely large serving size. Expect to be waiting, it seems like locals come in and get served immediately, adds to the wait time. Heads up, if you have any dietary restriction all the meat (chicken, pork, turkey) is cooked on the same grill and handles with the same utensils. Overall, would recommend! read more

Thank God for the Rain! On a city break it's "sacrilege" to stay in your hotel room when there's so much to fit in. After a couple of days trudging the streets, especially those hilly Lisbon streets we could've happily slept for a week, but we must explore! :-S But at that moment the heavens opened. A Devine intervention of monsoon proportions, which gave us reason to stay in and the chance to sprint to this ultra-hip takeaway that's all the talk. There's no seating in this tiny shop (not exactly true, there're 2 midget seats), so it was a quick in and out for menu 1 - consisting of 1/2 a chicken, 4 ribs and a chunky sausage all from the grill, with salted hot rice and a cooling tomato salad. They baste the grilled meat with a choice of lemon and herb or chilli oil, there's more than enough for 2 and it's the best meat feast I've devoured - All for €10! The guys are laid back, funny and can crack jokes in English all day long. But if you fancy a quickie (a pint, that is) while waiting there's a bar called Gayola next door that's pretty decent and will serve you pretty quickly. A short 5 minute run back to our hotel, soaked, but who cares? Let the feast begin!!! read more

This place was so delicious! It's a very small little place that can be a little tricky to find but it's well worth it. Not only was the food so good but the woman who helped me was very kind. There were a couple other tourists who came in while I was there and a lot of locals that came to get to-go orders. I highly recommend checking this place out! read more

This place is small but the food is big! I would say plan on taking away and go back and just feast. Service was great and food is fantastic. A little bit of a wait but nothing a few beers can't help. Plus reasonably priced and almost to much. If your missing a dry rub US barbecue this is better! read more

Food was good, but it took almost an hour from the time we arrived until our food was ready. It's not good enough for an hour waiting on your feet. They only have two small 2 person tables in the place and everyone must wait in line while they cook everything to order (chickens take a while to cook on a charcoal grill. read more

An amazing place. The owner is a sweet person who loves her business and it shows. On holiday but I might come back. Amazing food. Very full and very cheap. read more

So hungry and started enjoying the delicious chicken. Don't forgot ask for additional spicy sauce which can make the chicken more beautiful read more

Frangasqueira Nacional - Barbeque Near Me - Lisbon, 11

after we walked for 30 mins to the restaurant in the blazing heat they refused us service because they "didn't have any more food" even though we saw a chickens and sides, she also didn't take more than five people in the restaurant. read more

Couldn't get past the customer service. We attempted calling the place hours in advance but with no luck. After arriving at 9:40pm (says it closes at 10pm) with my wife and our baby, I asked the lady in the back if they were taking any more orders and she replies saying "WE'RE CLOSED...CAN'T YOU READ? IT SAYS AT THE DOOR CLOSED". Keep in mind that the door was completely open with a SMALL handwritten note taped on the door. Owner was present and after lots of back on forth she acknowledged that the lady was rude and offered me burnt chicken and even said "I don't sell these but I can give it to you...they're dry" lifts up and showed me that it was burnt. I must add no swears were used and even people that were present approached us saying sorry. As we were leaving I over heard the owner calling me stupid, I ignored it and walked out. While outside a gentleman approached us and referred us to a different restaurant up the street named Churrasqueira Rodas. Which the service was def a 5 star. read more

We heard good things about this place from friends and it did not disappoint. We got the last piece of chicken that night (but we didn't mind bc it was our second dinner) plus small chips (homemade potato chips). They brushed some type of sauce on it--all of it phenomenal. It's a take away (carry out) type place but there's a nearby park you can eat at. Definitely recommend this place! read more

This is the best chicken in town without a doubt. I've been there soon many times and quality is always great

Yes! On the hunt for some tasty chicken and research leads us here. At first we were a bit hesitant because it was only takeout, but we were wrong. Do not let that stop you. Grab one of the great value meal deals and head for a park, they even offer drinks to takeaway. The chicken itself was perfection. Crispy skin and just greasy enough. The meat was juicy and soft. We only wish it was a little bit spicier. The ribs and sausage that come with the meal were also delicious, the ribs in particular were seasoned wonderfully. The staff were also super friendly, it's was a quiet night so they were happy to chat with us while we waited. read more

Went here twice on our trip. Great deal and great flavors like everyone says. Take away only. If you have a phone, I do recommend placing an order ahead of time or be prepared to wait. Do not come here on the fly and expect to wait less than 20 min dueing peak lunch and dinner times. On 2nd visit, i saw some tourists ordering everything off the menu and not calling to order ahead which held up everyone else that ordered behind them (some said they had waited over 30 min). read more

Perfect is an understatement. Perfectly smoked ribs chicken. Even the rice was fresh. Highly recommended.

Excellent Chicken, Excellent ribs and that's coming from a black man. Poor customer service and elongated wait times for service and food

Well well well, what can I say about this establishment that hasn't already been said.... absolutely nothing, so why even write a review because I'm just like the other yelpers. I want to add my 3 cents....The food was good, but the wait was incredibly long.... would I wait in line for grill Chicken for over an hour again....HELL NO.... but I have a few disclaimers..... I was on vacation. The owner did offer my wife some of the best garlic olives she's ever tasted (she still talks about those olives this day) did I mention I was on vacation and didn't have anything, anyone or any place to be (I was completely in chill mode), and now as I plan my trip back to Lisbon in the coming weeks, my wife just mentioned this place and she can't wait to eat those olives again.... so here's my dilemma... do I stand by my earlier statement and forego this restaurant, or run the risk of unhappy wife because I came between her and those damn wonderful olives .... that's the $64000 dollar question...hopefully I can stick to my word, but we all know how wives can be to get what they want... oh yeah the garlic rice and tomato salad are great co stars to star of show the chicken.... I'll write another review if I cave to the pressure, and hopefully the wait isn't as long.... enjoy read more

This is a wonderful, authentic and heart warming spot in peaceful and trendy residential neighborhood in Lisbon. Frangasqueira, owned and operated by Francisco and Sonia, celebrates traditional Portuguese BBQ with modern flair. This take-away restaurant is perfectly designed like a tiny bistro and the scrumptious food is infused with love. I had the bbq'd chicken - you can order whole or part and it's grilled fresh while you wait - with amazing olives and home made potato chips. It's the perfect place to pick up a delicious meal for a picnic in the park or on your way back "home" for a peaceful evening dinner. It's located in Principe Real - a quieter trendy neighborhood compared to neighboring Bairro Alto and Chiado - and just a few short blocks to Jardim Principe Real where you can enjoy a glass of wine or beer at Quiosque Principe Real before or after you have your meal in the park. https://m.facebook.com/Frangasqueira?_rdr https://m.facebook.com/profile.php?id=156722024369594&_rdr read more

Lisbon is absolutely blanketed with restaurants and wonderful food, but on our last day of endless over eating of this city's amazing cuisine, this place took the our top honors. The owner, chef and all around delightful woman made every single part of this experience spectacular! Warm, inviting and every menu item more delicious than the previous. She is truly a culinarily genius. Seriously we have spent our entire day reminiscing the experience. read more

*cash only* This place is a little hidden gem. I ordered mista 1 and the portion is definitely big enough to eat for both lunch and dinner. I also order the tomatoes as a side dish and they tasted fresh. The only downside when I was there during the opening time was they weren't ready and had to wait for awhile for them. The woman who was cooking seems stress. Highly recommended this place. There isn't a lot of seating options. read more

Fast, cheap, and delicious! As written by most of the reviews, the place is takeout only and serves mostly traditional Portuguese meat. We had a combo platter of BBQ chicken, ribs, and sausage for only ~8 euros which was enough for 2! If you don't speak Portuguese, you can order in English or Spanish. read more

Good food cheap. 15 euros for the Mista 2 (sausages, ribs, chicken) + small tomato salad (with or without olive oil) + small rice (plenty for 2) + olives (way too many for even 2 people). read more

tiny bbq place that is run by the chef and she pretty much does everything herself. be prepared to wait a bit and take away as there is only seating for 7 with no table service. the food was excellent and flavourful. read more

Looked like Chicken Heaven, and well... IT IS! It's a small take away place, so there are no seats, cheap and totally great barbecued chiken, can't really get wrong with this place. Only drawback, if you are not taking it home to it, you have to do it by hand on the streets... read more

The food was really good! Got the mista 1 with rice! The chicken and ribs were seasoned well and were made fresh. I did not care for the sausage because I'm used to American sausage.. Also, be prepared to wait in line for your meal. We waited for about 45 minutes to receive our food because it was busy and made to order. Plus the establishment is very tiny so we had to take our food to go.. overall, it's worth a try! read more

Agree that this is heaven for meat lovers. 9.3 euro a combo that a strong Asian man cannot finish. Satisfied.

This little take out joint was incredible!!! We had a whole chicken, a sausage and a side of tomato salad. The guy doing the cooking was very nice and patient as we decided, and the food was flavourful, bright, moist and just smelled so good! We couldn't believe that for around 15 euro we could get enough food to feed two comfortably and a couple of beers to boot! The place doesn't take visa/Mastercard, but only bank cards, but it was well worth the walk and wander to find, and extra trip to get some cash! read more

Great bbq place. The combos are pretty cheap and you get alot of food. The bbq chicken is so flavorful and juicy. The only bad part is they don't have seating so you need to take the food to go. read more

We tried this place our first night in Lisbon. Was very good bbq. Highly recommended if you want a good take out. We had the ribs and chicken. read more

The chicken here is out of this world, let's just say it was so good I went there twice during my stay in Lisbon. The cool thing is you get to see the food prepared in front of you. Fresh ingredients, great price, and amazing taste. read more

The owner Sonia is very rude. We received a terrible service today.I won't go back to a restaurant where I was yelled at as a customer.

Best place to stuff your face with bbq meats we found. The tender sausage and the chicken - oh my god that chicken is so delicious. Came for lunch and I'll be back for dinner. read more

Delicious. My husband and I came twice during our visit. Great quality, and affordable.

some of the best chicken i have ever eaten. the lady who cooks is also very nice and funny. if you are in lisbon, you must go to this place. it takes about 20-30 minutes for the chicken to cook, but it is well worth the wait read more

What a great little place. Visiting from the US and loving good BBQ this was a welcoming and familiar taste, which was a great surprise in Lisbon. Thank you for a slice, and in this case a leg, of home from half way around the world. Additionally, There was a line out the door which says it all! Great food at a great price! read more
