What Anonym dislikes about Moises:
It seems Portuguese cooking of meat means well done. Our kebab was so dry it was tough to eat. Our cooked cod was moist and very tasty. To enjoy meat, chicken, pork, lamb or beef it should be moist and melt in your mouth. Being from beef country, Alberta, Canada it's a shame to have meat cooked to a well done state. I have learnt from my 3 week stay in Portugal, I will just cook my own meat at home rather than have i... View all feedback.

Real bad service if you want to get ripped off as a tourist go there. Food is horrible too. The salad was bad and so was the main dish.

Food was awful . Very salty and overcooked ! Nothing but a cafeteria with horrible food and rushed service.

Delicious, and very reasonably priced! My partner had the bbq chicken which was very tender. I had the pork and clams and the clams especially were insane!! So tasty! And for €11! The restaurant was full of locals, and packed out on a Thursday after 9pm, which probably says a lot. If you’re in the Saldanha area of Lisbon and want a tasty cheap meal I’d definitely recommend!!!

About three years after our first go-around at Moisés, we were back in Lisbon and decided to go back. The first thing we noticed was a much more expensive menu than we had remembered. Nonetheless, we ate there. Three of the four dishes we ordered were subpar. I ordered rabbit just because I rarely have the chance to get it. It was mostly bones. We are aware of how bread and butter will cost you extra in Lisbon, but we found €1 steep for a pat of butter. It was Saturday lunch and we figured maybe the lunch menu from three years before was not available on the weekend. We returned during the week a few days later and saw the menu in the window--better prices. We had lunch again, stayed with fish for the most part, and enjoyed the meal more the second time. However, we did notice a discrepancy between the menu prices in the window. Just as I had suspected, the prices were for sitting at the counter (balcão) and not at a table. Oh well, live and learn. We would probably go back to Moisés, but we were a bit disappointed. In 2017, this seemed like the perfect place, but now it was just average.

Was pleasantly surprised by this owner run family restaurant serving very local, authentic and hearty Portuguese food! 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!

Not bad, but portions are a little small so I was still hungry afterwards, plus they charge for bread. Food: 4 Service: 4 Atmosphere: 4
