Restaurant Pata Gorda

Dining experience at Pata Gorda capture the soul of relaxed, flavour-focused Portuguese cooking. Tucked away in a quiet residential street, this spot offers a deliberate escape from the city's crowded tourist centre, inviting guests into a space where simplicity, flavour, and genuine connection are the main ingredients.

The restaurant's philosophy is refreshingly straightforward: an unpretentious, creative, and seasonal approach with a sharp focus on Portugal's finest national produce. The menu features inspired updates on traditional dishes, where familiar flavours are presented with a modern, shareable twist.

Diners are encouraged to gather friends and family to explore a menu designed for discovery. The kitchen distinguishes itself with generous, high-quality plates where taste takes centre stage. Standouts include the rich Duck Rice (Arroz de Pato), the indulgent Brioche with flank steak and foie gras (Brioche com Vazia e Foie), and the cleverly composed Potato with prawn and egg (Batata com Gamba e Ovo).
