Madam Bo, Príncipe Real

Listen up dumpling lovers! We have a must-try restaurant for you — Madam Bo. We fell in love with their beautiful interior, great music, and kind & communicative staff!

  • Offer ALL YOU CAN DUMPLING menu where you can try all flavours of their hand-made dumplings for 14.90 euros, with side dishes (we recommend the delicious crispy coleslaw).

  • Includes options for everyone. For the veggie lovers, they have tofu & vegetables, for the meat lovers: pork + chinese cabbage or chicken + shiitake, as well as a beef + hoisin option & more.

    A dumpling delight you don’t want to miss out on!

Bomau Bistrô, Santos

Located in a fun neighborhood, Bomau Bistrô serves elevated asian street food and familiar classics. Enjoy their fantastic food and wine selection while listening to the sound of vinyl.

  • They only use fresh ingredients to create their delectable and innovative dishes. Top-notch Asian food, inspired by the Far East including Thailand, China, Singapore, and others;

  • You don’t want to decide on one dish? No problem! Enjoy their amazing tapas.

  • Hot tip: Try the Chinese Leek cake, it’s absolutely delicious!

  • Wine lovers will be happy here. They serve a unique wine selection and are always happy to recommend something if you’re not sure what to get;

Boa-Bao, Chiado

A walk-in Asian restaurant that will take your breath away with its interior design and tableware. Boa Bao’s concept is built on tradition, the sharing of authentic experiences, and a personal pinch of love. Imagined by an American/Dutch couple and seasoned by a Belgian chef.

  • Sift through their signature cocktails to discover unique flavours (their menu is a passport!). Or try some of their range of traditional Asian beers;

  • Then enjoy the food journey of the best street food from Thailand, Vietnam, Laos, Cambodia, Malaysia, and many more (Boa Boa’s kitchen assumes itself to be pan-Asiatic)

  • They serve original recipes respecting local traditions and use original ingredients cooked by experienced chefs;

  • Enjoy their delicious starts from their dim sum or Vietnamese rolls, and for our WOK lovers, don’t worry, they offer a large range that we can say will be an explosion of authentic flavours!

Panda Cantina, Príncipe Real

Panda Cantina offers delicious and affordable Asian cuisine in three locations in Lisbon - Amoreiras, Rossio, and Príncipe Real.

  • Specialising in authentic Asian noodle soup - ramen;

  • If you are looking for a good lunch menu they offer ramen + a drink of your choice + a delicious dessert from Szechaun for 9,80 euros;

  • Quite a simple menu with a few varieties of ramen, but the flavours and portions are great and good value for money;

  • Cute interior that nearly takes you on an imaginary trip to Asia.

Rebel Asian, Bica

On a vibrant street in central Lisbon, Rebel Asian is serving Asian street food accompanied by cocktails and natural wines. We love this spot for its great food, good music, and cool interior.

  • Vegan friendly;

  • Wide menu with a lot of things to choose from. We’re always craving their Asian smoked wings and edamame for starters, and the bao buns are just delicious. If it’s comfort you’re seeking, try the shrimp pad thai - it’s amazing and full of flavour.

JNcQUOI ASIA, Avenida

Located in a vibrant shopping street, JNcQUOI Asia has gotten its inspiration from the sea route the Portuguese navigators made to India, which resulted in a fusion of cultures.

  • The restaurant offers four types of Asian cuisine (Indian, Thai, Chinese, and Japanese);

  • Cosmopolitan atmosphere, well-presented dishes, we recommend trying their peking duck;

  • The food and the interior create a unique experience together;

  • There’s a terrace aiming to recreate the vibe of a stroll in the crowded streets of Tokyo, Bangkok, and Hong Kong.
