Radisson Blu Hotel, Lisbon

As part of our honeymoon trip, we stayed at Radisson Blu Lisbon and decided to have lunch at Restaurante Bordalo Pinheiro after arriving from Lisboa Oriente station. What we expected to be a simple meal turned into one of the most unexpectedly heartwarming dining experiences! 1. What We Ordered & Experience 🍽 ✔ Burger American Style with Fries – Juicy, flavorful, and a welcome break from Portugal’s seafood-heavy dishes. ✔ Smoked Salmon Sandwich with Fries – Fresh, perfectly seasoned, and paired beautifully with crispy fries. ✔ Super Bock Beer & Super Bock Stout – A great local beer selection, and the stout was a free treat from our amazing server! 2. Service & Hospitality – Above & Beyond! 🌟 ✔ A True Act of Kindness – They Served Us Past Closing Time! – We arrived around 3 PM (just as they were closing), but the chef and attendant went out of their way to serve us instead of turning us away. A rare, genuine gesture of hospitality! ✔ Attentive & Friendly Staff – The attendant noticed I was curious about the stout beer and offered me a free one to try—a thoughtful, personal touch! ✔ Fast, Smooth Service – Despite being past closing time, the team prepared our meal without any rush or hesitation. 3. Pricing & Value for Money 💰 ✔ Mid-Range, But Worth It! – Not the cheapest, but great portions, high-quality ingredients, and incredible service make it well worth the price! 4. Atmosphere & Ambience 🏡 ✔ Indoor Seating – Comfortable & Relaxing – A cozy space that feels both casual and upscale, making it perfect for business travelers, families, and couples. 5. Any Issues? ❌ 🚫 None! We were lucky to arrive at the right time—no waiting, no rush, just a wonderful experience! 6. What Makes Restaurante Bordalo Pinheiro Special? 💎 ✔ Unmatched Hospitality! – The kindness of the staff and chef made this an unforgettable experience. ✔ Perfect Comfort Food After Exploring Portugal – If you need a break from seafood, their burgers & sandwiches are a great option! ✔ The Stout Beer Gesture – A small but super thoughtful moment that left a lasting impression. 7. Insider Tip! 🔥 📌 If you arrive near closing time, don’t hesitate to ask—they just might surprise you with exceptional service! 8. Would I Recommend It ❓ ✅ 100% YES!
