    Good place to go if you.loke seafood prepared with Portuguese flair. Prices are what you'd expect for fine dining but portions are extremely generous. Our group had the sardines, tuna karate and sausage for apps and sea bass, octopus and tiger shrimp for the mains. All very good and filling! Extremely prompt and attentive service!

    The service at Chiado is incredible from the moment you walk through the door. The atmosphere is beautiful and refined. The food is absolutely amazing, and our server, Tony, was exceptional. He was attentive, friendly, and professional. We had a wonderful experience and highly recommend Chiado.

    Always welcoming, service fabulous and food delicious. Yes, it is expensive. But the value is in the outstanding service , proper size portions tasteful and tattily prepared. Fresh fish out of this world. So beautifully seasoned and served with really nice accompaniment on the plate. Plate and food piping hot. The staff are well trained and knowledgeable about food and wine and are the same reliable faces each time we visit. A gem of a restaurant.
