Casa Do Alentejo

Casa Do Alentejo in Lisbon is a beautiful 17th-century Moorish palace that showcases the influence of Arab culture in Portugal.

Flashes of Morocco appear in the entrance hall, with its mosaic floors and horseshoe arches adorned with intricate details that define the building's architecture.

On the upper floor there is a restaurant with a full menu based on typical Portuguese dishes, especially food from the Alentejo, a region in southern Portugal.

There is also a small, casual bar where you can grab a drink and a bite to eat.

The entrance can easily go unnoticed as you walk along Rua das Portas de Santo Antão. But now that we've given you the heads-up, take a few minutes to peek into its lovely inner courtyard. The area is the Baixa of Lisbon.

For those on a tight budget, the recommendation is to skip the restaurant and just stop by for a drink and to soak in the atmosphere — it's a really beautiful spot.

Around €20–30 per person at the restaurant. Tapas at the bar from €1.50
