Las dos Manos de Kiko Martins

This Mexican–Japanese fusion spot in the heart of Lisbon feels like something the city actually needs! The room is colorful and energetic without being chaotic, there’s a relaxed, easy buzz that makes you want to linger. You feel looked after from the moment you walk in – staff are present, attentive, and genuinely hospitable, not just reciting lines. The food is where it really earns its Micheline-guide place. The menu offers diverse options, and what arrives at the table is clean and focused: bright flavors, very fresh ingredients, combinations that make sense once you taste them. Nothing feels heavy or tired. You can tell they’re paying attention to product quality and its natural flavors first, creativity second, which is exactly the right order. Dessert keeps the same standard – things like churros with a citrusy, boozy sorbet are fun without being childish, and actually taste as good as they sound. It’s a lively restaurant that’s super easy to recommend – and even easier to come back to. The restaurant isn’t trying to be “clever” every five seconds. Yes, it’s fusion, but all combinations feel natural once you taste them. Fusion here isn’t about trying to shock you. It’s more like two cuisines having a serious, grown-up conversation on your plate.

I absolutely loved the food. Mexican and Japanese are my two favourite cuisine and this place delivered it best. The tuna tostada (as recommended) was absolutely delicious and the churros with granita was one of the best deserts I have had. Will definitely come here the next time I am in Lisbon.

The food was simply outstanding – a real explosion of flavor. Not only was everything delicious, but also beautifully presented. You can tell that every detail is carefully thought out. The staff were quite young and perhaps a bit inexperienced, but very attentive, friendly, and full of charm. They even had a few jokes and witty remarks that made us smile. A special highlight was when the owner personally came to our table, asked for our feedback, and explained the concept behind the restaurant. All in all, a fantastic evening. Highly recommended!

The best restaurant in Lisbon? I think so. I loved the decor. The service and precision of the delivery also perfection. Sit at the bar and watch them prepare your food. A truly amazing experience. Won’t be long before it gets its Michelin star.

Give them the Michelin star. The food was incredible. What an experience. Must go if you’re in Lisbon. I would recommend getting a reservation because it can get busy.

Delicious experience. The Mexican and Japanese fusion works really well at Las Dos Manos. Every dish is unique and so carefully “crafted”.

We had an amazing dinner at this unique restaurant! Such a fun combination of Japanese and Mexican foods! Wait staff was professional and helpful as we sampled various dishes. Highly recommend!

I came here twice during my journey in Lisbon, because I really enjoyed the good food (Quesadillas with Shrimps), the music and service. Miguel was very nice. Thank you for this experience 🙏🏾
