"Portugal has more sea than land, and the former is what’s emphasized at this fine dining restaurant inside the Four Seasons. Service is smart and formal—you’ll want to break out the hotel iron ahead of putting on the one fancy outfit you packed for this trip. You can pick from two different tasting menus, which include a 5- and 10-course option. Everything is brilliantly executed, especially the squid with hazelnut, roasted seaweed butter, bergamot, and caviar." - rita geraldes
"We find ourselves in the gourmet space of the Four Seasons Hotel Ritz Lisbon, a luxurious, iconic hotel which, however, does not deprive the restaurant of having its own character and separate entrance. This establishment, whose name comes from the term “curation” (curators who safeguard art), has an open kitchen facing the dining room, advocating a modern, bold and balanced cuisine, with thoughtful creations and a surprising level of technical control. The offering is presented exclusively as a surprise tasting menu: ORIGENS (“Origins”) (5 or 10 courses), with the possibility of vegetarian versions, where seasonality is always paramount. Memorable creations? We really liked the fish dish (Wreckfish | Goan curry | Green beans | Cockles) and the multi-textured dessert (Bread and Fruit | Pineapple | Malt | Yeast | Molasses bread), which is always finished with a flair, tableside." - Michelin Inspector
"At Cura, the Four Seasons’ fine dining restaurant, chef Rodolfo Lavrador combines exquisite plating, balanced flavors, and sensitivity to bring the best out of fresh ingredients, which come daily to his kitchen from the Portuguese coast and the countryside. When you order one of the three tasting menus, the wine pairing, which focuses on local winemakers, is mandatory." - Rafael Tonon
"Holding MICHELIN's flagship accolade thanks to the innovative work of young chef Pedro Pena Bastos, whose tasting menus show the potential of the younger generation of Portuguese chefs." - The MICHELIN Guide
