Description: Diz -se que neste local eram as antigas cavalarias do Palacio do Duque de Lafoes. A area ocupada actualmente pelo Restaurante "A Casa do Bacalhau" e a parte mais a Oeste do edificio cor de rosa, onde ainda hoje habitam o Sr. Duque e a respectiva familia. Este Palacio foi construido apos o terramoto de 1755 devido a parcial destruicao do palacio que a familia do Duque de Lafoes tinha a data em Lisboa e fica situado mesmo ao lado do convento do Beato. Na epoca da sua construcao pouco existia a sua volta chegando o rio Tejo praticamente a zona da actual porta de entrada. Este e o pano de fundo para a sala de jantar com quase 90 lugares, de onde se destaca o tecto original do seculo XVIII construido em abobada com "tijolo burro". E aqui que o bacalhau e servido em harmonia com a melhor tradicao culinaria portuguesa porque uma parte das receitas sao fruto de uma pesquisa exaustiva onde foram rebuscados velhos segredos de xozinha escondidos pelo tempo, a que foram acrescentadas receitas contemporaneas que souberam resistir a historia. O resultado e uma deliciosa ementa exclusiva, consagrada definitivamente ao nosso fiel amigo mas onde se encontram tambem algumas surpreendentes alternativas. A Casa do Bacalhau e um restaurante tematico de comida portuguesa onde, tal como o nome indica o bacalhau e rei. Esta dedicacao e revelada atraves de um menu com 25 maneiras diferentes de desfrutar o bacalhau. Mais de cem marcas de vinhos, para alem das sobremesas tipicas, fecham o circulo de prazer de estar aqui para degustar algumas das surpresas que o menu proporciona.

The space is wonderful. Listen to the falling water while eating is very relaxing. The service could not be better and cod is king. We will repeat this experiment many times!

“Imaginative cuisine for the famous Portuguese codfish”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 18 November 2012

Casa do Bacalhau is a very beautiful restaurant, modern decoration with a classical touch, wonderful wine list and the strong point is of course the "bacalhau" (salted dried codfish). Besides the very classic recipes we have learned to know and appreciate of the Portuguese cuisine for "bacalhau" they have some very innovative recipes. It is definitely a very good restaurant...

“Great Food and Service”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 30 January 2012

What inspired us to choose the Casa do Bacalhau was the restaurant's homepage: about 25 different bacalhau dishes on the menu, excellent wine card, appealing venue, reasonable prices. Once you manage to find the Casa do Bacalhau (not that easy!), you will be more than rewarded: friendly, helpful and competent staff, excellent food including versatile starters, lovely wine ... 70...
