The Insólito

had a great dinner here! the food was really good. my favourite was the amberjack but every single dish was genuinely good. we got 6 plates, 1 dessert and many glasses of wine and port. the service was really attentive too, they let us sit outside and have a drink when we arrived early, and moved us to a more comfortable table at our request once we moved indoors for dinner. 5 star experience!

We had a drink at the rooftop bar - great view of Lisbon towards the castle. Restaurant is inside on same floor as bar. Service attentive and knowledgeable on local wines. Sharing plates generous. We had four between two of us and that was more than enough. Booking essential.

The food was really amazing and worth the money. The view as well! Its a place for good looking rich people of course, but still with normal clothes and appearance you still get treated like a queen! The service was superb. And I wish I could say thank you to the chefs! They turned normal vegetables into a master piece

One of the best meals of my life! The food, beyond compare. The service easy and excellent, sit at the bar and chat with the Argentine chef, he will make the meal! He explained everything and showed his passion for what he served. The sea rice was a major surprise to me. Herbaceous, lemony, with a strong sea taste. The sweet, peach? BBQ sauce in the shrimp! The chocolate dessert - heaven!

We waited for a little while to get into the bar on the roof terrace. Very cool and unique cocktail bar. The cocktails were very good and well made. The staff were very friendly and provided a fast service. The evelator to get up there is extremely small and has a pretty low weight limit. So be prepared to walk up stairs I think it was only 3 floors so not so bad.

We came to Insolito initially to have a nice sunset view but were blown away by the food. We had 4 dishes and 1 dessert and there was nothing negative to say about all of them. Even the cocktail creations were amazing, including the attentive service. We liked it so much, we are going back in a few days to try the other dishes.

Very nice cocktails with a nice sunset rooftop bar. Chill DJ & great sunsets - a recommended place for a nice cooldown after a long day in Lisbon. The food is also quite nice - black tiger prawns were great!

Just wow. Incredible food, amazing views from the roof terrace, fantastically atmospheric place - from the elevator ride up, to the eclectic decor, the mind blowing menu and delicious wines. One of the best meals we’ve ever eaten, delivered by amazing service, and we even got the pleasure of talking with the chef. An absolute must visit, however long you are staying in Lisbon. We will definitely be visiting again. Thank you Insolito!

Wonderful Place to view the evening of Lisbon, with extraordinary small plates that are unusual and tasty! Must ride the ancient lift to the 3rd floor!

We can have Excellent view from terrace and delicious original food! And service also was great. A classic elevator to this restaurant (3F) is the most oldest one in Lisbon.

Oh, Insólito, where have you been all my life. With you panoramic views and cool cocktails, you are the prefect venue for any Lisbon sunset. Obviously, Insólito's rooftop lounge is the best spot in Lisbon for all those who love cocktails and conversation. The knowledgable staff will guide you to the most intriguing ports and wines imaginable (Thanks, Andrea). However, no drink at Insólito would be complete without a yummy nibble which they serve up here all too well. I really enjoy the chicken liver pate; served in a shot glass with a tasty layer of jam, this taste treat was just perfect. Insólito has a speakeasy feel, which certainly adds to its charm. Traveling up on its historic elevator soon opens up a magical rooftop experience not to be missed.

We had a wonderful evening here. Beautiful rooftop spot with great music and a fantastic view. The dinner is a fixed menu. Some were a hit and a few misses but overall a very good experience. I would recommend and I would return if ever in Lisbon again.

It was not my second or even third time here. I've to confess it's a little annoying the way they use find you a table, specially when you realize the place is far away to be fully booked. The deco is "sui generis "; the first time you think is cool ; the times after you realize is really low cost. The food was good but not outstanding. But paying more then €40 for the all meal ( starters, main dish, desert, just water and no coffee) felt too much Too expensive

Where do I begin!! Hands down the most welcoming restaurant experience my friend and I had while visiting Lisbon! The waiter who served us was so nice and willingly engaged in conversation. The food was really delicious. The only thing I wasn't a fan of was the chocolate mousse like dessert. The texture wasn't my fave. However everything else we ate was delicious. I sometimes fantasize about going back there to have another serving of the 4 hour slow cooked lamb... ooh sooo tender, moist and perfect!!

Wow. Service: best we've had in Spain or Portugal. Atmosphere: sit by the wall, unbelievable view and excellent vibe. Food: out of this world--we had the lobster ravioli to share, the filet, and the scallop ramen... to die for. Best restaurant we've eaten at in a long time. More expensive than most in the area, but WORTH. Next time I'm in Lisbon :P.

I had the best meal in here! It's a hotel, a restaurant, a bar and a rooftop bar with beautiful views over the castle and the sea. We started with a glass of port outside in the rooftop bar before continuing on inside for our dinner. The service was exceptional, professional and friendly. For starters we had homemade duck pate with fresh bread and olive oil and smoked duck carpacchio which came with a side of their house cocktail. Wonderful presentation, wonderful flavours, just perfect in size. For our mains we chose tuna filet on sweet potato and spinach and pork belly with clams in bacon foam. The sommelier tried his best to match a red with our mains and he did really well finding a local wine that complemented both our dishes. Unfortunately I have no pictures of this divine experience, the food was so good I forgot all about the pictures!

Fabulous! If you're looking for top tier Portuguese cuisine with a twist, check this out. After many days of bacalhau/cod, sausage, cheeses, etc it was time for something outside'traditional' cuisine. Insolito was gourmet all the way at a very fair price. Solid wine menu, fairly prompt (for Portugal ) and attentive service, and a cool restaurant space. Use the old style, 3 person lift to the third floor and you're on your way to something unique. Duck wontons were stellar. The suckling pig with grapes was inspired. Yum!

Let's be honest. This is a cute location with clever bohemian decor, and *if* the weather is nice and you are *somehow* able to secure one of the two tables with views overlooking the city, it's a cool spot to dine. If the weather is not ideal or you do not get one of those two tables...The food itself is totally edible though not memorable. The exorbitant prices seem to be based on a dubious understanding of presentation and concept. I ordered a bunch of things and left unimpressed. It's all about getting those coveted spots on the terrace on a night with good weather

Hands down. Best meal of my life. Creative, multisensory (our lamb empanada came out on a bed of smoking oak leaves and our pineapple dessert came out singing), and absolutely delicious. Good service, beautiful view and just perfect atmosphere. Also, going up in the oldest elevator in Lisbon is quite the experience in of itself. Make a reservation in advance. They fill up. Also note they are closed on Sundays. We has a group of 3, so had a 4 top table and plenty of intimacy. I did note that the 2-tops were VERY close together. I would have been uncomfortable on a date...

Awesome food and atmosphere, i do recommend, after the meal we stay in the terrace nice view

Located right next to the Decadente restaurant (amazing restaurant by itself), this is another top notch restaurant in Lisbon. Seriously, what have I ever done to deserve all this goodness? Absolutely spotless service, uber friendly staff, went out of their way to prepare beautifully cooked, full of flavor vegan dishes especially for us. Lovely rustic decor and perfect ambiance. Together with the adjacent Decadente, these are truly Lisbon's finest restaurants. Not to be missed. Make reservations.

This restaurant is located on top of the Independent Hostel and Suites. My wife and myself ended up her based on great Yelp reviews. I was a little put-off by the entrance. You have to walk through old looking, tacky velvet curtains and go up an old rickety elevator. I got the initial impression that the place didn't look clean but it may be the urban look that they're trying to project. The service was slow. It took about 40 minutes before we eventually got our food. The food was great once we got it. My wife had their bass and I had their grilled lamb chops. The combination of herbs and flavors were new to us. We enjoyed the food. Reservations probably advisable although we were able to walk-in. They have an excellent bar. They have delicious desserts and good coffee. I understand they have an outside patio with an outstanding view which I did not get to check-out. I was bordering between a 3.5 to 4 but ended up deciding on giving them a 4.

A fun and friendly rooftop bar with great service, incredible beer and even better Negronis - I'm Italian and I'll swear by them.

Really amazing food and chic decor. We loved the lamb and the venison. Wine and cocktails were great too. The restaurant is in a scenic area you can hang out and listen to music outside after you eat. There is an awesome rooftop but we weren't able to sit on the roof without a reservation, so maybe call ahead.

What a great find. We were walking by and decided to try. Boy, were we pleased! Fabulous rooftop bar and restaurant. Fantastic cocktails and bartender. Great cuisine. The lamb was special. Ceviche delicious. And the view was just an added bonus

The restaurant is beautiful and the view is amazing. The food is excelent but the staff really need supervising. I heard swearing and I had to wait for service while three waiters argued. Moreover, the staff need to get acquainted with the menu. Try this place only if you're feeling patient. The food is totally worth it.

Great view of the city. Perfect place to sit on rooftop and have a drink or nice dinner. Great wine. Food was good but not the best I have ever had. That said, I would definitely go back.
