Clube do Bacalhau

OMFG!!!!! This place is the best. We walked by the day before and the food on the tables looked so good. We stopped by today for lunch, and it was better than it looked! Rimel, our waiter, was amazing. A very kind man who talked to us about his life's journey. Things like this go.abobe and beyond. (Hey, give this guy a freakin' raise!) Our food was great. I'll go back for sure. The white sangria was really good, the red fruit sangria put it to shame! Order both and decide for yourself.

We’ve eaten twice at Clube do Bacalhau now as it is only a short stroll from our accommodation. We’ve enjoyed the delicious seafood prepared for traditional Portuguese dishes such as grilled sardines, grilled octopus, cod fish cakes and paella. Tapas plate with cheese, jamon and olives was great too. Prices are reasonable compared to some of the other offerings in the heart of Baixa. Pleasant on-street dining in a quiet alley. Shout out to our friendly waiter, Renel, who provided great service on both occasions.

This restaurant is a real gem! The food is delicious and freshly prepared, with flavors that satisfy every craving. The staff are friendly, attentive, and make you feel welcome from the moment you arrive. The music sets a perfect, relaxing vibe without being too loud. The ambiance is cozy and inviting, making it a great place to unwind. On top of all that, the prices are very reasonable for the quality you get. Everything together makes this spot truly worth visiting—highly recommended!

Food was absolutely delicious. RimEl, our waiter was really nice and helpful. Highly recommended if u want to taste real food an very good service.

Dining outdoors at the Clube do Bacalhau was a great experience. While still in the States, I used GoogleMaps and booked a reservation for 12 people. I then emailed this establishment that there could be 17 people. 19 showed up, and as our group expanded, the courtesy extended to us was 5 Star. Food was prepared well and served hot. Highly recommend!

Most beautiful shaded space, good music yet still peaceful. The service is wonderful, smiley helpful friendly faces. & the food has made me a very happy girly. Wonderful recommended spot & if Sidney is your server, you’re in for a good time! Gave me tips on the city & helped me through the menu. Thank you thank you Sidney & whoever made that food, gold star :)

I had a wonderful experience at this Portuguese restaurant! The food was absolutely delicious — full of authentic flavors and perfectly cooked. Specially The waiter, Rimel, provided excellent service — very polite, attentive, and friendly. Overall, a fantastic dining experience! Highly recommended.

Absolutely amazing restaurant in a great little tucked away location. Food was delicious, and the service even better!! Zahir was so attentive, couldn't do enough for us all, and had some great chats and laughs. Obrigada xx

We've been in Portugal for 2 weeks and this was our first bad restaurant experience. We arrived at happy hour. The waiter brought port tonics, which were fairly weak, but still cool and refreshing on a hot day. We told him several times we didn't want food, but he brought a standard "couvert" (bread, oil, olives) anyway, plus some small cod fritters. We nibbled at it out of politeness. When it came time for the bill, he first brought the wrong one (a much higher tab) and then when he brought ours, said they only took cash -- something he hadn't mentioned before (and I can't imagine that policy is true for the €25 entrees.) Fine. We paid in cash for our drinks and the snacks, which were unusually pricey -- €1 each, totaling nearly €5 for a few bites. He brought our change and then tried to make a joke out of asking if we wanted it, as if we might leave it all for him! Unbelievably rude, and again, not at all what we've experienced here. If you're passing by, try the place next door -- that was our first choice, but the tables were all full. We should have waited.

Avoid this place, please avoid it! On the terrace, you get a hint of urine every time the wind blows - this is just to set the scene. We ordered wine and water and then they came with a starter (that we did not order and no surprise... it wasn't on the house - so we politely refused it). Then, came the main course: 'Lambo de Bacalhau com Broa' - the fish was undercooked... the only thing 'tasty' from that dish were the potatoes (and even those needed a pinch of salt). They only accept card payments btw - and if you ask for card they point you to the ATM. Food was ridiculously overpriced! And the staff had a 'no f#$s give attitude'

Our first Restaurant in Portugal. Anna made recommendations and every one was great, Muito bem! The best was the Bacalhau Especial. That was beyond good. Great wine and she even made a martini for my brother just the way he liked. We also had the sausage and cheese sampler and some other dishes.
