My husband and I wondered past Duque one afternoon and decided to book a reservation "just in case." They had some vegetarian options on the menu, which are hard to come by in Lisbon, so we figured why not, plus it looked like a nice quaint, hidden spot and it's in a great location. I'm so glad we did! We had an AMAZING experience from beginning to end. The owner and chef (Junior and Pedro) double as the servers in this small, homey restaurant and they are incredibly friendly and offer wonderful advice. The tables are close together, so you get to be cozy with your neighbors, but you also get to see what others are eating, which helped me to order (you eat first with your eyes). We split the goat cheese cigar and I had the octopus (divine) and my husband had the mushroom risotto. We finished the night with an unbelievable caramel cake. They somehow strike the perfect balance between homey and elevated here. Their playlists are SPOT ON, the prices are great in my opinion (much more reasonable that what we would have paid in the states for that kind of food and experience). And most importantly, the food was just so good. We live in the DC area, where intimate, "foody" restaurants pop up almost daily and I'm positive this place would hold it's own here. I would definitely recommend making a reservaition to eat here - otherwise you may have to wait a while (but it would still be worth it!) We loved the food, the people, and the ambiance so much that we booked another reservation and came back again! I was worried that nothing would be able to match that first night, but I was wrong. We shared a cous cous and vegetable salad and entrees were the seafood rice and the vegetable strudel. Again - so delicious (I ate the rest of my seafood rice the next morning straight from the fridge)! Dessert was chocolate cake this time. And Junior and Pedro made great wine recommendations to go with our meals both nights. read more
