    Cod fish tasted good - not heavy - small portions
    Mary L.

    Food tastes good. Small portions for the price. The staff is very nice and attentive.

    Wine list, by region

    Cozy neighborhood restaurant with excellent food and polite and personable staff. Good selection of affordable and select regional wines. The homemade jam with the bread was a very nice touch. Squash and creme soup with kale was very good, but I entertained myself trying to get the long slices of kale to behave themselves and get onto the spoon. Perhaps the kale could be chopped into shorter strips. Duck and mushroom risotto was delicious. The chocolate trio for dessert (I wish I could remember the names that were more sophisticated than "cookie, brownie and mousse" with slices of kiwi) made for a nice finish. The restaurant is at the intersection of Rua do Olival and Largo Dr. Jose Figueiredo. It has about 25 tables front and back, so when you look in the front windows don't be fooled into thinking that there are only 3 or 4 tables. Service was very prompt, polite and professional.

    Raízes - roots, what we seek in many aspects of life, culture. The food - stewed pork and beans, crusty bread and beer here satisfy deeply, memorably. Easy exchange of greetings and conversation with regular locals so pleasant.

    Cod with spinach and chick peas. Delicious! May 2017
    Ninja C.

    I visited Lisbon recently (May 2017) and I believe I had the best meal out of the week of meals at Raizes. I ordered the pork with polenta and my guest ordered the cod with spinach and chickpeas. Fabulous! From the close attention we were given, to the impeccable wine knowledge, to the suggestions on the food, I was utterly satisfied and hopeful I would get another chance to visit this establishment. Thank you so much for the wonderful meal, but moreover, thank you for the delightful experience!

    This restaurant came recommended to us by another American that ate here two nights ago. His comments were so right. Excellent service incredible salad and main courses.

    This was the cutest sweetest place. My husband and I were just here for our anniversary last…read moreSaturday night and found the staff so sincere and kind. The restaurant was quaint and intimate , with a small buffet that easily fills you up. There were many options from a beef stew to a curry, a noodle dish with bacon, salad, and other options. They even explained the options to us. I truly wish we had more time in Lisbon because I would have definitely returned to try it again as the options differ nightly. I would definitely recommend this to all in Lisbon.

    If your in Lisbon, this is one of those must do places…read more A Portuguese buffet, where everything tastes like someone's grandma just made it. Impeccable service. Cozy, almost romantic atmosphere. And just €16 per person for all you can eat! The menu changes nightly so here were the stars for me: Creamed cod. Might not sound appetizing but this was insanely good. Not too fishy. Veggie lasagna - really great flavors and you sneak in some vegetables. All the sides: mashed potatoes were delicious, the rice is a staple, the couscous was perfect, the carrot soup made me say DAMN! The service was amazing. The two gentleman there ran an entire packed restaurant effortlessly. Helping customers with drinks, explaining the concept and each dish to every person that came in. We washed it down with a pitcher of white sangria (drinks and desserts are extra). We literally couldn't move. We walked back to the hotel instead of taking an Uber simply to walk some of it off. One of the most memorable meals I had in Lisbon.
