Avenue is a, somewhat self consciously, designer restaurant. The wine selection is chiosen by iPad and the coffee cup and bill are Porsche Design items (see what I mean?). Likewise, the decor is technocrat black and grey. The staff are on the friendly side of formal, which feels just about right. The tasting menu is highly recommended with interesting mixes... More

Excellent wine list. Welcoming and attentive service. The food was excellent with a very diversified menu. A very quiet and relaxing atmosphere.

Group dinner was ok - plenty food - nothing special. Soup was lovely and dessert awful - fish and meat ok. We had a vegetarian and a person allergic to dairy - communicated in advance but they couldn't appropriately accommodate. They tried in the moment. Others in the area are better. They had a tv for the football in the... More

We ate here on Friday night (10th May 2013), and were really impressed. The lady who looked after us was extremely helpful and made us feel really welcome all night. We ordered quite a lot, and also received an amuse bouche from the chef. When my wife pulled a face as to say she didn't like Liver, they immediately took... More

We found many restaurants in Portugal to serve great seafood but this restaurant is a "cut" above the rest. The food is prepared with unique and delicious sauces and presentation is superb! It may be a... More

We went to Avenue on our first night in Lisbon, mainly because it was close to our hotel and we read good reviews on TripAdvisor. It was a much pleasant surprise. We had the 35 EUR tasting menus with wine pairing and nearly everything was excellent. Avenue revisits the Portuguese tradition with a modern twist, so expect pork and seafood.... More

We had a great night at the Avenue last week. The food was excellent and the service great. If we ever return to Lisbon we'll definitely return there.
