a bar/restaurant with a great view run by a circus school...only in lisbon! what an experience. some days you arrive and people in costume (promoting a new play, perhaps) greet you. there is different music 'no tanque' (literally and old wash tank for the neighborhood from days gone by) everynight. you can dine (or just have drinks) with a marvelous...

We were lucky to get a table by the window without a reservation since we got there early (be sure to book if you arrive after 20:00). View was amazing, staff friendly and the Calamari were the best I've ever eaten! Highly recommended. More

The location is perfect, the view from the terrace on the river at sunset is stunning. very friendly and vivid place also to enjoy a concert in the night. is is good also to go alone for reading or writing, while sipping a coffee in the afternoon, but also nice to have a meal in two or a night out....

It was really funny when I thought I orderd chicken and waitres brought me soussage. But that soussage was great. Green wine is good, very good! The restaurant has the best view over Tejo river, Christo Rei and Ponte 24 abril (like Golden Gate in San Francisco) and roofs of beautiful Lisbon. More

Clown school with great shows and an amazing restaurant with a great view! Gourmet food with a unique view of the city! One of the best places I have been in Lisbon. Chapito is also a clown school so the atmosphere is unique. The cod dish is amazing! I recommend the place if you visit Lisbon. More

This restaurant was one of my highlights in Lisbon. Located in the old part of town, the Alfama, and overlooking the river. At night it was stunning. The food was cooked to perfection and very local. The vibe was laid back and the ambience was calming. I could only imagine what this place is like in warm weather. Great outdoor... More

So, you enter through the gift shop and a clown welcomes you into the restaurant. A bit weird, but we were warned. Looking for vegetarian options, staff suggested the restaurant rather than the bar. Slightly more expensive but the view, the nibbles, the portions, the service... It made up for the cheque. At 44€, we had wine, an inspired fig... More

Service is quite good. The prices are a bit expensive but still fair. I came already twice and loved the meat fondue they offer. The house fine is also good. The whole atmosphere just makes the difference to other places. Make sure you arrive early in order to get a seat with a good view. More

The bar is great, with a great view and a nice choice for drinks. The place belongs to a circus School, so there are several shows running, conferences, concerts, or simply clowns walking around. The restaurant is really something special. Fusion cucine, even if a bit expensive. Do not miss this place! More

Originally we were going to go to the (currently) # 1 rated restaurant in Lisbon ("wine bar")... But on the walk there, we found this place and it was packed, even on a sunday night we still got a take for two immediately in the upstairs part of the indoor area.the view at night was great!
