It was a little difficult to get to. But in the end, a magnificent view welcomed us. We did not make a reservation and went at noon on a weekday. The staff was extremely polite and very helpful. The food was delicious. Especially the fish was amazing. The staff's wine recommendation was also very good.
Everything about our dinner here was amazing. We initially booked via email 2 months in advance, with a table outside (we thought it would be nice weather!) but it was quite cold/windy/rainy. When we arrived, the staff were really accommodating and went out of their way to ensure everyone was sat, and we were given blankets as we were at the table by the door. It was a lovely atmosphere indoors, felt like eating in somebody’s home! Service was quick and attentive. The food was incredible; the spicy prawns are a must, maybe the best I’ve had. The monkfish stew was so delicious, loved the fresh flavours. Desserts (creme brûlée and choc mousse) were also amazing. It was my birthday and when my friends told the staff, they then sang happy birthday in Portuguese which was really nice. Thank you very much for an amazing meal and experience!
This restaurant had been on my list for a while, and I was excited to finally visit. I didn’t realize that you can choose your table when booking, so if you want a spot right by the water, be sure to select it in advance. Be prepared for some waiting, both to place your order and for the food to arrive. The service is attentive, and the food is fresh, well-prepared, and flavorful. However, I was hoping for a “wow” factor that I didn’t quite experience. With that said, it’s still a lovely, cozy spot worth trying!
The ambience is beautiful, especially with the lovely seating next to the sea. The servers were nice and very friendly, but be prepared to wait I waited 20 minutes before we were served and another hour before our food arrived. The food is very good, though my veal steak was a bit too salty. Despite the wait, it's definitely worth a visit as a tourist. It made my trip to Lisbon more memorable.
Gorgeous location and that is it. Sketchy to get to at night. Service is in shambles, even though the staff speaks great English. Tables way too close to each other. Shrimps were really fresh and good the rest of the fish pretty mid. The rice was my favorite part and that was also not outstanding. I would recommend coming to the bar next door for a drink during sundet instead. Also if you are coming in the evening please be careful there are no street lamps and there are a lot of holes in the street. Also a lot of shit on the way, that I stepped into. Just a heads up!
Ponto Final (Final Point) was absolutely worth the wait. The setting is spectacular — right on the water in Cacilhas, with a beautiful breeze and one of the best views back toward Lisbon. The food was excellent and very comforting. The pataniscas (cod fritters) were crisp, flavorful, and perfect with the arroz de feijão (bean rice). The polvo (octopus) was fresh, simple, and very well prepared. Everything felt authentic, relaxed, and exactly right for a long lunch by the river. A memorable Lisbon-area meal — great food, incredible view, and a place I would happily recommend.
This place takes a great deal of effort to get to also a month in advance. We try to make reservations. It took several days for someone to text us back to let us know that there weren’t any reservations available and for us just to try to chance it for either lunch or wait in line for dinner. We chose to leave our hotel early in the morning around 9:30 and start the journey. We use the tram system and took two or three trams to cross the water and then a taxi for part of the way and then we walked through part of the village and down an extremely long set of stairs, but finally, we arrived and forgot about all of the effort that it took to get to the restaurant, the outside seating was full and by now it was around 12:15 and there was a line that had formed to sit outside. We sat at the very first table inside the doors and had a wonderful breeze and an excellent view. My sister and I are both very fair skinned, and the chance of getting set in the direct sun outside to see the same set of Water did not seem worth it. We ordered bread, olives, salad, the Seabass with potatoes and some sautéed green beans and carrots are waiters suggested the perfect wine to match with our food even though the restaurant is very busy they never seem to rush you and continue to wait on us until almost 4 PM. We also enjoyed for dessert fresh cut, pineapple, and mango and two upper teeth that had some kind of almond Lacore that was to die for! This restaurant was actually the highlight of our time in Lisbon and well worth it after our dinner. We explained how long it took to get there and our waiter called the water taxi lady she was there in 10 minutes. It was €10 per person and took about six minutes to cross over to the other side. I would highly recommend that experience also.!!
