Duck Waffle is hands down the best dish on the menu to me - worth coming back for every single time. I used to get the Keto eggs until they changed the menu, but I haven't been steered wrong with any order.
Shakar isn’t just about great food though. Diego is an incredible server - always kind, fun, and genuinely welcoming, which makes the experience feel personal rather than transactional. It’s the kind of place where you’re remembered and you feel it in your heart.
The coffee is fantastic, the vibe is high without being chaotic, and the whole space (especially the outdoor seating) feels like a true gem in the city. Even my dog loves coming here because he gets so much love. I try to go here every time I'm in the city in the morning...not kidding. I'm actually going tomorrow to meet out of town friends because I always send them here first to get a taste of Portuguese hospitality.
Shakar is one of those spots that gets everything right: food, people, energy. A must-visit in Lisbon.
