Today, I spent an incredible day in Lisboa with friends, exploring the city and taking in its rich history and stunning monuments. One of the highlights of the day was having lunch at Sea Me Restaurant, and I cannot recommend it enough! Established in 2010, this gem seamlessly combines the charm of a traditional Portuguese seafood market with the elegance of a Japanese sushi bar. The owner, Pedro Cardoso, clearly has a deep passion for delivering the freshest and finest seafood, and it shows in every dish.
From the moment I walked in, the warm, vibrant atmosphere made me feel right at home. We were greeted by a friendly, smiling host, and despite the restaurant being quite full, we were seated promptly. Our waiter, David, was amazing, he took the time to walk us through the menu, explaining the restaurant's specialties with care and enthusiasm. He even took us to the seafood market at the back of the restaurant, where we could handpick the exact fish we wanted for our meal, ensuring absolute freshness. The staff was not only friendly but impressively knowledgeable and attentive throughout the entire experience.
I started with a hearty fish soup that was rich and flavorful, the perfect introduction to the rest of the meal. For my main course, I chose a stunning el dorado/sea bream, which was expertly filleted and cooked to perfection. The fish was tender and flaky,accompanied by perfectly cooked potatoes and fresh vegetables. Every bite was a true delight.
Whether you're a sushi lover or prefer classic Portuguese seafood, Sea Me has something to satisfy every palate. I cannot recommend this place highly enough. If you're ever in Lisbon, Sea Me is an absolute must-visit! It's not just a meal here, it's an unforgettable dining experience. I'll definitely be back.
