LISBOA // Visconti Chiado

Sophisticated + contemporary Italian cuisine.

Naples meets Rome meets Lisbon in this eclectic and warm eatery atop Chaido’s hill in Lisbon.

Luchino Visconti was a major figure in Italian cinema in the mid 20^th century, and is the namesake of this delicious Italian restaurant in the heart of Chiado – also part of the group that owns Retaurant Legaal in Bairro Alto and The Bohemian Beach Club in Costa da Caparica.

Set against a contemporary décor of royal blue velvet banquettes, an eclectic collection of antique frames, and comfortable Scandic chairs and tables, the sophisticated menu includes a Caccio e Pepa pasta, a linguine with pepperand parmesan, as well as Neapolitan pizzas.

Seating outside in the front lands you a beautiful view of the Tagus as the sun sets on your Campari.
