I ordered the lamb chops and what I got was ground up lamb wrapped in something. It was supposed to come with potatoes and what I got wasn't recognized as a potato. My husband ordered the steak medium rare and it was not even rare. Seemed barely cooked. At that point we just wanted to move forward and finish the next 4 courses. There were only 3 tables being served on a Friday night.

I'm shocked myself to be giving such a low review for this restaurant that is a 9-years+ Michelin…read morestar restaurant but honestly the establishment needs some serious change if it's to keep that title or have me go again. The main disappointment was that the service was just HORRIBLE. There would be times we felt neglected and there would be long delays between courses that really interrupted the flow of the evening. It was so bad that we were able to notice that our dishes slowed down so much that other tables (at least 2) that had showed up 30-45 minutes after us had caught up to our course. It was hard to even flag people down. The food was delicious but didn't have that wow factor. My partner is vegetarian and her meal was simply the same dish just substituted with a vegetarian food type so like replacing meat with soy protein or vegetables. It felt like such a cut and paste type of action that her dishes were quite underwhelming and left a lot to be desired. The restaurant does have a beautiful spacious space that overlooks the park but that's not enough to cover the underwhelming food and terrible service. It felt like they were just doing the bare minimum and riding on the success of past years and I would be honestly surprised if they keep the star with this kind of experience. For reference, we had the typical 11 experience menu.

You feel like VIP in here, everyone attending to your needs and replacing your napkin every time you get up to leave the table. I've never ate flowers before, but this was an exception. It didn't even taste or feel like I was eating flowers! It blended so well with everything. Other Michelin restaurants don't get me full, but this course menu was filling! My favorite was the cod with black truffle and seafood stew. The dessert was an experience in itself with the smoking dry merengue. I even got to go back and meet Chef Andre Cruz! He was so nice and down to earth. I was nervous like meeting a celebrity I didn't even know haha. I can't wait to go back to make Portugal its own trip and try even more Michelin restaurants they have. Such an unforgettable experience and I'm glad we booked it as an our last dinner of our trip.

The food on the fixe prix menu is almost beyond belief and compare, though the chicken on the meat course was slightly overcooked. On the plus side, they shuffled to seat us even though Fork lost our reservation.

We stopped in for lunch and were instantly greeted and shown to a table for two. We started with tea and espresso, both rich and full bodied. Next, I opted for the lentil soup and was blown away at the depth of flavor for such a simple dish. I then had the basics, a falafel wrap that was simple, packed full of flavor and was incredibly fresh, the pickle was the perfect touch. My husband loved his grilled chicken kabobs with tangy garlic yogurt, again a simple dish with fresh ingredients that was perfect. To end, we went with the baklava assortment, each tangier and better than the first. A wonderful lunch.

THIS WAS MY FAVORITE PLACE FOR DINNER IN LISBON…read more============================================ I booked a reservation for our party of five for dinner at Sumaya on Monday, July 8, 2024 and I have to say I am a huge fan. If I ever visit Lisbon again I would definitely book a reservation there. Even my husband's cousin who has been a resident of Cascais for decades loved it and said she would go there again which is high praise. Not too shabby of a find from an L.A. East Yelper. We started off with a pitcher of their passion fruit sangria which was amazing. There was no wine in this sangria. It had vodka, rum, passion fruit and lots of other things. I am kicking myself for not ordering another pitcher of that. Definitely order that. We ordered the Sumay Grill to share which I also recommend. It has the best thinly sliced shawarma, lahme, kafta and shishtaouk. My daughter-in-law ordered some more chicken shishtaouk. Their garlic sauce was amazing. It reminded me of Zankou Chicken in L.A.. Their taboule was the best I have ever had in my life and I loved their baba ghanouj too. This was most likely my favorite meal of the nine days we were in Portugal.

Lots of space but many of the 2 seater table face in a direction of no view of the room. Can I mention the "walk" here was monumental ? Insanely steep and up up up. A Bolt back was reasonable enough not to miss this place if you are not close by. We walked from near the Baixa/Chiado station. The food, absolutely superb. Exactly what I would expect what a Michelin Star venues would serve. Service exceptional. I think that the highly regarded Roasted Eggplant with Miso Caramel & Pistachio was one of the best dishes of my life, and I am not always a fan of eggplant. This was a firm block of roasted eggplant with a volcano like coating of this insanely crazy umami-sweet-decadent sauce. Honestly, if we lived here I would frequent just for this as an entrée and not share it one bit. For mains, we shared the duck leg confit, barley & mushrooms and the black pork neck, shrimp, white beans and coconut milk. Dessert for Lee was the eucalyptus and also the basil mint ice creams and mine, which makes me giddy, was a chocolate soup (was like a think pudding) with peanuts and passion fruit daquiri mousse..topped with pop rocks. The food here is a work of art without being fussed over, imaginative and well executed. Unsure how anyone could fault one aspect at all other than the uncozy atmosphere in the rooms without a fabric chair or couch. Highly recommended !!

It is a small restaurant so it pays to get reservations far in advance. The interior is kind of like a house, intimate and very comfortable in a minimalist style. Our table had a view that was breathtaking. The design details are great--even the flower vase at the table was beautiful. There are two choices for the set meals--both with the option of wine courses. My wife and I both ordered the option with fewer courses, then I did the wine pairing. Before the meal, they brought us out a sparkling wine and a white port. Both were excellent--my wife had three glasses of the sparkling wine during the meal. All the wines were from Portugal and all were excellent. We had two courses of amuse bouche. The first had a parsnip cream with pine nuts along with this triangle beetroot bites. Both were phenomenal--I would have been happy with a meal of either of them. The next course was tuna, that came with cucumber gazpacho. They matched so well and this was SO good. This was matched with a vina verde grape that had kind of a green tint but matched perfectly Next was bread. This might be considered odd as a course, but exceptional. Not only was the bread perfect, but it came with great gravy, butter, and olive oil (from Portugal). My wife does not even like gravy, but now wants to try to replicate the poultry gravy here. Then the butter was spectacular also. Next was the sea bass. I think this was my favorite course and one of the most incredible bites I have had. The sea bass was moist and flavored so well. Then the sauce was such a great complement, just extraordinary. This was paired with a Portuguese Riesling that was also great. Next was lamb that was paired with a red blend of 65 grapes. It was really good pairing. The lamb was moist and just melted in the mouth. This came with scallions and fennel--included some sweetbreads wrapped in a scallion. I am not a big sweetbread fan, but well done. After that was a dessert that had crème on a pistachio crumble. Really great. There was a Madeira that came with both desserts, again a perfect match. This was followed by a coffee gelato with these little gelatinous cubes of tonic. Just amazing. The final item was not an official course, but a Madeline with tea or coffee. Again, this was so good and I loved the Darjeeling tea. Just a fantastic, incredible meal.

Staff were friendly and welcoming and the restaurant was so beautifully decorated and designed. To be completely candid, I was unimpressed with the Portugal food scene before this meal so I came in with no expectations but they surprised me. Each dish was delicious in their own right, my favorite being the artichoke (OMG! divine) I like how they use the core ingredients in so many ways in each dish. Only areas where I felt EPUR fell (just a little) short was they had limited variety of non-alcoholic drinks--wish they had a non-alcoholic pairing or at least some mocktails and their dessert seemed like an afterthought. Overall, I really enjoyed my night.
