Seafood eatery with lobster, prawns, crab, and steak sandwiches
"A renowned Lisbon seafood restaurant famous for its decadent after-dinner prego no pão — a garlicky, rare-seared steak sandwich often enjoyed as a post-seafood indulgence and recommended to book ahead for the experience." - Stacey Leasca
"Made famous to visitors by Anthony Bourdain’s 2013 No Reservations stop—though locals long knew the institution—this multi-floor cervejaria serves outstanding seafood by the kilogram, best tackled with a group. Plates of warm buttered bread hit the table and it’s impossible not to heap on garlicky shrimp or fresh crab, then finish like a regular with a prego for “dessert,” the best beef sandwich I’ve had in Lisbon. Expect a line; the payoff is a quintessentially delicious, no-fuss feast." - Abigail Malbon
"Calling it the kingpin of seafood is no exaggeration. This is the Cristiano Ronaldo of cervejarias — seafood restaurants that naturally serve lots of beer to go with it. It's both the place domestics get eager to return to for their lifetime and one of the first tourists line up to once they set feet here. Truth is, it's one of those rare cases where both demanding costumers and clueless visitors will be satisfied with because how good it really is. And since Bourdain said it, the lines have just gotten bigger (they move quickly though). Don't leave without having the very special signature dessert: a beef sandwich with ice cold beer!" - Nelson Vassalo
"Not going to Ramiro when you’re in Lisbon is like going to the beach and failing to put your toes in the water. It’s the most important seafood restaurant in the city, and the line usually stretches around the block (the wait is worth it). Once you sit down at a table inside this renovated art deco building, you’ll witness a constant waterfall of beer mugs slammed (cautiously) on tables. Start with the stuffed crab, gambas à guilho, and some bread—it’s great, so don’t be shy about eating the entire tray. Two other things that should be on your table: the medium rare steak sandwich that’s slathered in mustard and a vodka lemon sorbet that comes in a champagne flute." - rita geraldes
"A legendary Lisbon seafood house where diners often conclude a shellfish feast with a simple, garlic-marinated steak sandwich traditionally eaten at the end of the meal; the venue pairs exceptionally fresh shellfish with the convivial energy of a buzzy, popular seafood institution." - Kevin Raub
