Damas

10/10 experience at Damas. The staff are so lovely — they sat us at a lovely table beside a big window where we could watch the trams go by. Food was super tasty, I would recommend the white fish. We also got the pork with pineapple which was delicious but slightly smaller. Drinks were fantastic also. For dessert we would recommend the salami biscuit (literally so delicious). The stay gold was nice also but spicy and a little more on the savoury side. Best of all was the MUSIC!! Great playlist and not too loud to chat.

Went looking for vegan options and left a bit disappointed. Start with the good, staff were pleasant and happy to answer questions and explain the menu. The decor is quite shabby which gives the place a trendy derelicte vibe. Despite this, the prices are not cheap. The 'braised lettuce' with peaches looked excellent. But it had no substance. The seitan was just a few tiny crumbs, no proper pieces. The tuna steak was good, but sadly some of the mussels were completely closed. What is the point - you can't safely eat them. Portions are SMALL, but nicely presented. This place has potential - they just need to tweak a few things and it would be a great spot.

We loved the food and the atmosphere and, in contrast with other reviews here, the service was also very good. Keep in mind it was a Saturday night and they were really busy, but the still took the time to translate the whole menu

Barely visible from the street, it is a very special place, with warm welcome, polite service and authentic flavours. The coriander rice and the fried green beans were also delicious. Unfortunately, the beef was so salty in the sauce that it was almost inedible. The beer is very good with it. All in all, I would definitely recommend this place if you want a local culinary experience.

I don’t have any clearer photos of the food because they put us in the back room which was hot, stuffy and dark. The waiters were friendly but completely out of focus. The food was delicious though and it is a queer space. I would love to give it a second chance

Very authentic restaurant with delicious food! We tried something we never had before: potatoes with french garlic. The shrimps were also very very good. The atmosphere is very cool with loud music and young people. It’s a 10 out of 10 recommendation!

Amazing place! Such a lovely atmosphere and great service. Staff was very friendly and happy to explain everything. We had a table in the window which they let us know might be in the hot sun later so if we wanted to move that we should just let them know. We had great Sangria, and even better food! Absolutely recommend this place!

What a great restaurant! The menu changes, presumably daily so the menu literally goes on the wall. We didn’t know what to get so the server picked us an assortment and off we went. When the food started to arrive it was flavour bomb after flavour bomb, each dish fresh and lovely. We had both vegan and meat dishes and left completely stuffed and pretty certain we wouldn’t find a better dining experience in Lisbon!

Very large, yet homie place! The staff was very patience and kind to helping us navigate the menu which is written on the wall! Skip the chickpea and eggplant dish and try their Pulled Pork dish it was ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS! I wasn't impressed by my mojito, but my friend's Aperol Fizz was phenomenal!

Damas is a must visit when in Lisboa. Luckily, our Airbnb was a few doors down so Damas was the restaurant we frequented the most -- it also helped that they were open until 2 am. We tried many plates from the menu & they were all amazing, the food is fresh & seasoned perfectly! My favorites were the ceviche & the tuna tartare, they were plate lickin' good! The staff is super friendly & accommodating, we were a group of 7 & they always found a way to seat us together. The interior is clean & inviting & the service is fast. The drinks are amazing! The quality, presentation & taste are all there. They have a large variety of cocktails, wine & a small selection of beer so there's something for everyone. Thank you, Damas for being awesome!

Nestled within the bustling city, this charming eatery is a true treasure trove, offering an array of mouthwatering dishes and delightful snacks and beverages. Its convenient location led us to frequent visits, each time discovering new flavors and experiences. The culinary offerings were not only exquisite but also remarkably fresh, with a diverse menu displayed on the wall, adding to the overall ambiance. The attentive staff were always eager to provide outstanding recommendations, while the beverages, meticulously prepared with fresh ingredients and an impressive selection of cocktails, were a true sensory delight. Despite our sizable group of seven, the accommodating and amiable staff always managed to secure a cozy spot for us, ensuring a memorable dining experience each time. This establishment is a must-visit for both dining and unwinding with delectable snacks and drinks.

If you're one of the zillions of NYC-area people who've been making the easy trip to Portugal recently, Damas is probably on your list. Do you love Hudson's Lil Deb's Oasis? Are you a Dimes Square denizen? Did you love Mission Chinese before it sold out? Then you'll probably have a great time at Damas! If my previous few sentences were unintelligible, I am sincerely sorry, but the translation is: Damas earns stars for both its excellent food and its fun vibes. The crowd is young, hip, and not entirely tourists, and the servers have cool aesthetics and the vague hauteur of the extremely hip. The menu, refreshed daily, is chalked onto a big blackboard outside the open kitchen, and features, no surprise, a lot of fresh and seasonal seafood, along with plenty of vegan/vegetarian options. You'd satisfy a lot of different types of eaters here, from least to most adventurous, and there are lots of interesting cultural influences among the dishes. I'd highly recommend trying out some of their speciality cocktails, and getting a bunch of plates to share. We really loved the big juicy shrimp we got, and the desserts are not to be missed! Also, it's a good call to make a reservation as this can be something of a hot ticket on nice nights. Damas offers a great combo of delicious food and a fun atmosphere, and is super reasonably priced for the amazing quality of the cuisine. Highly recommend you add it to your Lisboa itinerary!

We absolutely loved Damas. We ended up going a few times during our week stay in town. Menu is on the wall, you can take a photo, order from your table. We tried many different things, our favorite was the tuna crudo and ceviche. We also got a pitcher of sangria each time too, just enjoying our time talking and eating. If we are ever back in town we will of course go here. It's been 5 months since we visited and we still talk about our food.

The place is interesting indeed!! Would say reminds me of being back in Brooklyn! Very friendly and diverse staff! The space is open for lunch and dinner and has a changing menu. Drinks are nice as well.. the cocktails are a bit on the pricey side relatively speaking... and tasty! As for the food, good quality... go for the expat crowd... seems to be the main clientele!

We just had the most delicious and amazingly prepared meal here. The swordfish was incredible. The squid and cilantro rice equally delicious. The staff is so very patient and helpful. The fish balls, yucca, falafel, fish soup, and dessert were top notch. If you are in Lisbon do not miss this restaurant. Service, prices, and exquisitely prepared food are second to none. A gem in Lisbon.

I love this place. It's a bit dark, a bit smokey. The food is really good and the staff will help you figure out what to order from the menu, specials change daily, I believe. Good variety of adult beverages. Relaxed, tasty.

Just want to reiterate a previous comment about the tremendous quantity of ass present at this establishment. Great food, naked butts, fun times all around.

Damas, more like Dat Ass! Lot of cool lookin booties up in here, just shaking and swanging, doing there thang. Good place to desculpa

Great food! We tried the vegetarian menu of the day - it was great. Different menu and tapas each day. Trendy and cosy.

Very relaxed restaurant! We came here through a recommendation from a friend as they do vegetarian food. They usually only have 3 main courses: veggie, meat and fish. We had the veggie and meat meals. Both cooked very well, guacamole as a starter was really good too :) definitely a place to come back as not many veggie options in the area. Totally worth the money! We paid about 11 euros each (including drinks And starters).
