A Cevicheria - A Culinary Experience Like No Other

One of the top places to visit in Lisbon is A Cevicheria, a seafood restaurant located in the trendy Principe Real neighbourhood.

The wait time at A Cevicheria can be long, but it's worth it for the culinary experience that awaits you.

Travel tips:

Use Ubers, whilst all the taxis are super friendly they don’t always disclose a meter and charge unexpected prices when you reach your destination.
