Highly recommend the tapas- the lamb slider is possibly the best thing I’ve ever had to eat. The sea bass was delicious and the lobster risotto was the best I’ve had outside of Maine. Wine that was suggested was a perfect pairing with our meal. And dessert… the strawberry rhubarb pavlova was out of this world! The prices were very reasonable for this quality and it was a wonderful evening.

Very knowledgeable sommelier paired up some fabulous combinations for the culinary event held on 19th September. The food was fantastic and we enjoyed a very memorable experience on what was my wife’s birthday. A huge thank you to Susana D. and all the team at Divinus.

Price was too high compared to what you pay at other places in Portugal.

I only can say about the design that’s beautiful. We just have breakfast there. But next time we will try to have dinner. read more I only can say about the design that’s beautiful. We just have breakfast there. But next time we will try to have dinner.

I truly recomend to taste the pork, the duck, the dessert.... everything was fine and very light, beautiful cooked and beautiful mise en place. Just remember that starter, plate and dessert are enough for a hungry person. Very good wine and service.

The service is fantastic, so fantastic. The food is on the higher end price wise but also quality wise. Everything we had was delicious. The porco preto basically melted in my mouth. I don’t like meringue but their dessert was beautiful, interactive, and not too sweet. It was honestly a great meal even though we were exhausted that night. We had the red wine that’s made there, and it was very good. They also gave us glasses of champagne that’s made there (well sparkling wine) which is our favorite way to start a meal! Even better we were able to bring what we couldn’t finish to our room.

The Divinus restaurant service was very welcoming and very attentive. Unfortunately, the food was disappointing. Without living negative details, I'm just saying that I don't think the food will revive the place and service. I think the reviews are pretty inflated. For the price point of this fine restaurant, I think the cook has to do better. When I accepted a positive comment, I spoke privately with the head of the service, and he heard and recognized my opinions and offered compensation for my concerns without challenging my opinions. I hope the kitchen is able to significantly improve the food because this is a special place to visit. (Translated by Google) Este restaurante está en un espectacular edificio que es un convento histórico revertido en un hotel de cinco estrellas con dos restaurantes y otros servicios. El servicio del restaurante Divinus fue muy acogedor y bastante atento. Desafortunadamente, la comida fue decepcionante. Sin detenerme en detalles negativos, solo diré que no creo que la comida esté a la altura del lugar y el servicio. Creo que las calificaciones de revisión están bastante infladas. Por el precio de este establecimiento de alta cocina, creo que el chef deberá hacerlo mejor. Cerrando con una nota positiva, hablé en privado con el jefe de servicio y él escuchó y reconoció mis opiniones y ofreció alguna compensación por mis preocupaciones sin cuestionar mis opiniones. Espero que la cocina pueda mejorar significativamente la comida porque este este es un lugar especial para visitar.

The Divinus restaurant service was very inviting and quite attentive. Unfortunately the food was disappointing. Without dwelling on negative details I will only say that I do not think the food lives up the venue and service. I think the review ratings are quite inflated. For the price point of this fine dining establishment I think the chef will need to do better. Closing on a positive note, I did speak privately with the head of service and he listened and acknowledged my opinions and offered some compensation for my concerns without challenging my opinions.
