I was doing quite a bit of research on Yelp and TripAdvisor for good places for some seafood and most reviews have come back with them being overpriced or disappointing....and I stumbled upon De Moisés which is just a block away from where I was staying and very busy with locals. Busy enough to know that locals would eat there, but not busy enough to generate a long queue of tourists! I must say this is generally my favourite balance of the type of restaurants I like. Good decently priced and yummy local food (to get a feel of the local culture), without the need to be pretentious with its interiors to attract the tourist buck! I'd thoroughly recommend this restaurant to anyone who'd like to have an insight into how locals live and eat in Lisbon at this place whilst enjoying some really yummy and hearty Portuguese cuisine! I literally went for two mains in one sitting as I was hungry and was so impressed after the first main that I had to try the second one after since I could still fit it in!
