Lisbon isn’t just a feast for the eyes — it’s a paradise for food lovers, too. In recent years, Portugal’s capital has blossomed into a world-class culinary destination, home to a remarkable array of Michelin-starred restaurants that blend innovation, heritage, and exquisite flavor.
From fine dining temples to modern Portuguese bistros, here are the most amazing Michelin-starred restaurants in Lisbon you should experience this year:
⭐️⭐️ Belcanto – Chef José Avillez (2 Michelin Stars)
Location: Chiado
Belcanto is the crown jewel of Lisbon’s fine dining scene. Led by the internationally acclaimed Chef José Avillez, Belcanto earned its second Michelin star thanks to its bold, creative cuisine that honors Portuguese tradition while pushing boundaries. Dishes like the “Garden of the Goose that Laid the Golden Eggs” and modern interpretations of bacalhau (salt cod) are unforgettable works of art. A true must-visit for food connoisseurs.
⭐️⭐️ Alma – Chef Henrique Sá Pessoa (2 Michelin Stars)
Location: Chiado
Modern, elegant, and utterly soulful, Alma (which means “soul” in Portuguese) is the signature restaurant of Chef Henrique Sá Pessoa. The menu is a journey through Portuguese flavors, global influences, and technical excellence. Choose between the tasting menus or à la carte, and don’t miss the stunning slow-cooked suckling pig or the intricate desserts that conclude every meal on a high note.
⭐️ Feitoria – Chef André Cruz (1 Michelin Star)
Location: Belém
Overlooking the Tagus River, Feitoria inside the Altis Belém Hotel offers a sophisticated culinary voyage inspired by Portugal’s Age of Discovery.

A favorite among those who love refined, minimalist design with serious gastronomic flair.
⭐️ EPUR – Chef Vincent Farges (1 Michelin Star)
Location: Chiado
For lovers of French-Portuguese fusion, EPUR by Chef Vincent Farges offers a serene, almost zen-like experience.

Every dish is intentional, delicate, and deeply flavorful — a quiet triumph in the heart of Lisbon.
⭐️ Fifty Seconds – Chef Martin Berasategui (1 Michelin Star)
Location: Parque das Nações
Perched atop the Vasco da Gama Tower, Fifty Seconds by Spanish legend Chef Martin Berasategui offers not only impeccable cuisine but one of the most breathtaking panoramic views in Lisbon. The name refers to the time it takes to travel up the elevator to the top floor — and what awaits is a polished, ultra-modern dining experience showcasing sophisticated European technique with Iberian soul.
