If you're a tourist, this is more about supporting locals. Nothing historic, just lots of cool art. If you're local, I imagine this is the place to get cool unique things. The one thing that's really pretty to see here is the bookstore. Other than that if visiting from another country, I would find other things to see.

This was one of my favorite days in Portugal - spending it at the LX Factory, getting to see the…read morework of local artists, and eating some delicious simple Portuguese food. I came on a weekend so there were tents set up by artists and vendors in a large area which made the day even more interesting. It feels a little to me like a condensed version of the Arts District in LA. It is very busy on the weekend, but worth it to navigate just so you can see all the tents of vendors. There are vintage shops, ceramic shops, cool clothing shops - so many spots to find great gifts and be inspired. It feel industrial/warehouse-y which makes the vibe feel so much more interesting. We ate at Chickinho (pronounced chickeen-yo) because I really was craving some grilled chicken with piri piri oil. This spot specializes in chicken, especially grilled chicken with piri piri. We ordered the whole chicken, got a deliciious red cabbage coleslaw, and some wedge potato fries and a tomato/cucumber/onion salad. Everything was just so fresh and tasty. The piri piri oil was already at the bottom of the dish that the chicken came on so we just kept dipping the pieces of chicken in there and wow was it addicting. I couldn't stop thinking about this meal for a couple of days and really wanted to go back again, but we opted to try another spot that was well known for their piri piri chicken. I have to say overall, I still enjoyed Chickinho the most because of the sides and how well they seasoned and cooked the chicken. And I really liked their piri piri oil.

I surprised my wife on a date here for her birthday and omgggg we absolutely LOVED it!…read more Drink: We're strong and good. Food: The salad was fresh and aromatic. The main course took 30 minutes (luckily they advised us of this as we ordered) and came out amazing! The duck was so tender and flavorful with the rice. The flavor profile was mind blowing honestly. Atmosphere: Was lively. There was a live singer walking around singing 2000 r&b hits all night. The restaurant is lightly dim and perfect for a date. Honestly, hands down the best restaurant I tasted in Lisbon while on vacation.

Long wait to be greeted & no attempt to explain or speak to the menu, had to request for starter/app plates to be removed/cleaned). We dined at the early end of dinner service (6:30).

Beautiful view/location but I'd dine elsewhere.

They sent us pictures of our setup and were very responsive. When we got there we found our table was a little too much in the sun and they were super nice about letting us move slightly to be in the shade. They also were able to close the slats on the patio roof cover to let less sun in. There were a couple kids menu items, I just remember the spaghetti and the kids enjoyed that. Cheese and meat platter - 4 stars Tempura green beans - 3.5 stars Zucchini pesto fettuccine - 4 stars. A bit al dente but the sauce was great. Sweet sour cod - 4.5 stars. Perfectly cooked and meat easily coming apart. Sur and turf - 4.5 stars. Beef super tender and tasty. Asked for medium rare but had to send it back was a little too rare, then it was perfect. Strawberry margarita - 4 stars. Quite light. Pisco sour - 3.5 stars. Really sweet. Passion fruit Caipirinha - 4 stars.

The stairs. It's a…read morefive-story hotel with a rooftop bar. It's on a pedestrian only side street, so getting dropped off/picked up in front is not likely to happen. It's a 25-step climb from the front door to the lobby/office. It's another 25-step step climb from the lobby/office to the one person/luggage elevator that only goes from floor "one" to floor "four" with no stops in between, and which was out of service during our two-night stay. So, I counted about 150 steps up to the roof, a little less to our room on the fifth floor. The rooftop bar offers a 20% discount to hotel guests, but only on food, not on alcohol. The complimentary breakfast is served up there from 730am to 1000am. Fruits, meats, eggs, cheese, pastries, coffee and juice. Good stuff. Upon check in, the staff helped us get out luggage up to 5th floor room. Room was clean and spacious, as was the bathroom. A/C worked well. We had an early flight and asked for assistance getting our luggage down as a taxi was picking us up at 630am the following morning. We were told the staff doesn't show up until 700am. (I found it odd that there is no staff overnight after the rooftop bar closes. What happens if a pipe bursts or something of that nature? Very strange). Anyway, the manager said he would show up at 620am to assist with our luggage. And he did show up at 620am. Also gave us a to go breakfast of juice, fruit and a meat and cheese sandwich to nosh on at the airport. Nice hotel, but not very accessible if you are old, frail or differently abled. The stairs.

Theres a part where you can walk by some glass cases and it has a sensor where it triggers a light to come on. When I walked into the room it was off. I continued to walk around and it remained off I was in there for about 5-10min before I walked in front of it. I finally made my way to the case and the light clicked on. I thought cool and looked at all the things then it turned off when I walked away and stayed off. Then when I revisited some of the things I was looking at before and the thing came back on while my back was to it. In my mind I thought finally someone else is in here with me. I turn around and nothing, then it turned off. It did this a few more times while I was in there theeeeeeen I decided fuck that I'm going to leave the room I'm not guna die today. Yes I can melodramatic sometimes, I've accepted this about myself. Lol some other weird stuff happened and I thought cool I get the point I'm leaving altogether.

I was on the hunt for a restaurant still open on Christmas Eve / Day while visiting Lisbon for the holidays, and was delighted to see that a few of the shops next to my hotel, including The MOB, still opened their doors in late December. The shop is apparently themed after the Italian mob (although I couldn't really see the references), but I also loved that they had a live fish tank and great indoor and outdoor seating spaces. My mom and I took a seat outside and decided to split their sardine salad and shrimp / salmon paella. The sardine salad was solid, with a ton of fresh veggies and a generous helping of sardines. The sardines provided all the salt and fat the salad needed, but a hit of the white vinegar the restaurant offers on the side really brought the salad together. The paella was also good; the shrimp and salmon chunks were both tender, and I loved the pops of freshness from the green peas and tomatoes. The rice wasn't quite as flavorful as I was expecting, but it was still a good meal. The portions are also quite generous -- we split just one salad and a single / one-person serving of the paella, and it was plenty.

The house tour is a must (no pictures) and the guide is so knowledgeable about the history of the Palácio and Portugal. There are so many beautiful nooks to get lost in. So much beauty and history packed into this Palácio. A bit far from the city center which makes this even more worth your visit. It feels like you are one of a handful of people visiting and there were a few times I had the property almost to myself.

They catered the 4 course meal, took care of the flowers, officiant, cake, DJ,and everything that needed to be done other than the photographer. We were there for around 10 hours for the entire wedding and they made sure that everything went off without a hitch. We had the ceremony in the lower garden, and moved to the upper garden for cocktails and then the porch for the meal and dancing the night away. I highly recommend this place and really felt like we were at one of the best events ever which tells me they must do good for most others that take advantage of this beautiful venue.
