On the Grid : O Golfinho

"This place is 63 years old and has a 150 year old olive oil container which is still in use. The cliental is loyal and they are most happy that they can have a cigarette in-between kebabs, beers and espresso’s. We highly recommend the pork sandwich which makes us miss Denmark where “flæskesteg” is a celebrated classic." - Relax, we are the good guys

Our final day in Lisbon, September 25th, led us to a fantastic find near the LX Factory: a small, very reasonably priced restaurant called O Golfinho. We weren't disappointed! The owner was incredibly attentive, making us feel right at home. We ordered a vegetarian meal (soup, burger, and drink) and a bifana dish (soup with sausage, sandwich, and drink). Both were generous and delicious, especially the vegetarian burger, which featured two superb homemade patties. A small detail we loved: they provide scissors to easily open the ketchup and mayo packets—brilliant! The whole experience on their small, charming terrace was just perfect, all against a backdrop of classic 1980s hits. Bravo, O Golfinho!

The bifhani was horrible. The meat was chewy and no flavor and minimal sauce. Wanted one for the last day in Portugal as this dish has been my favorite from the trip but was a waste of money here. Cash only Good deal- sangrea, soup, fries, bifhani all for 10.90 Euro but wished I’d gone somewhere else. Sangrea was good but fries were so so

The owner absolutely loves dolphins, that is adorable. The food is nice, service is wonderful. But the best thing is the music choice, very tasteful.

Amazing place. The owners are so friendly, the food is home-made. The green soup is their specialty, with some sort of chorizo in it, you can easily fall in love with it. Let’s not forget the sandwich, I tried the pork sandwich, simply great (and I wasn’t hungry at all). I recommend this place with all the love

Hard to understand the good reviews. Soup was tasty. But bifana sandwich was very chewy and meat definitely old. Chips were very salty. Place old and worn out, lacking any kind of atmosphere. Just some old, sticky bar with "beer food". The service however was very friendly, although server didn't really speak English. The prices were super low, maybe that's why lots of people highly prise this place. Whole meal cost us less then coffee with cake in a nearby fancy, popular cafe.

Busy place but quick food and responsive service. Drinks are also good. Remember, it’s cash only. Lots of locals.

Chanced upon this gem outside of LX Factory - what a steal! Food was so fresh, with the favourite being the cod fritter salad. The fries are handmade and pairs well with the pork steak sandwich👏Lemonade is a must as well!

Stopped in after visiting the lx factory. Had the meal deal of chicken sandwich, soup, and a beer for ten euros. Everything was delicious and the service excellent. The server recommended the camels drool- a yummy caramel dessert with a funny story. Try it out!
