A warm, rainy night a’top of one of Lisbon's seven hills. Our taxi struggles to gain traction on the wet, cobbled road. Traction gained we disembark and knock on the heavy mahogany door. Thus begins a night at this most glorious restaurant. A group of five of us visited Clube de Journalistas in May. It was everything we hoped it... More

We were not disappointed by Club de Journalistas, having been recommended it by both friends and our time out guide. We went on a Tuesday night without a reservation but they were able to accomodate us with no grumbles. The food was imaginative and very well cooked, their advice on wine was spot on and the venue itself is very... More

We visited this restaurant during the last night of our stay in Lisbon and wanted somewhere special, and it lived up to that expectation. The venue itself is very cool and different from your average restaurant. A variety of corridors and rooms make this place instantly interesting, and the glass of complimentary champagne on arrival was a nice touch. I... More

We got the best service imaginable at this secluded gem of a restaurant. The food was absolutely fabulous - especially the carpaccio, risotto and lush desert. Go there!

It was not the first time at Clube de Jornalistas, but normally I stay on their fantastic patio which is great to enjoy the Lisbon warm summer nights. This time, however, the chill and rain made us discover the building which is composed of different rooms, each with its decoration and character. We stayed in the first one, with wooden... More

It was my first time at this place and i was overwhelmed by the ambiance, place, decoration and also the backyard. The food is good and everything went well with our event. The catering was made by them and it was very much appreciated by the visitants. I recomend!

If you are visiting Lisbon, don't miss the opportunity to have a truly fulfilling experience. From the beginning of your meal, the service is always thoughtful, your glass is never empty, and each dish that arrives, gives you even more curiosity on how the chef will top up the previous amazing tastes he has provided. The wine selection is well... More

after several visits we were a little disapointed with our last visit. The service was more or less and the food quality was below the good average that we are used to. The place is very nice, if you are in the area is a good option

We visited this restaurant on our final evening in Lisbon - great service and delicious food - also great value for money, the five of us enjoyed two course meals plus some shared desserts and two bottles of wine for a total of 180 Euros - would definitely recommend.
