Delicious food, inexpensive plus it opens till late. Some dishes can be too spicy for the ordinary palate. It's 15-20 feet from our 4th floor apartment , so we plan to dine there often.

Okay so I didn't know that lamb in a dark coconut sauce was a thing and that was a big gap in my life this place has fixed. So delicious. They default to coconut rice , entirely worth a visit.

Natalia

Mozambique cuisine is so good! I ate starter dinner and cake and of course beer from this country . I have been there around 7.30 PM and I was almost alone. After half hour restaurant was full :)

Katarzyna Stawna

Delicious African food ???? Ask for spicy souce, it gives a good kick to the dish. Very friendly stuff , need to wait a bit for food but worth it????

Diana F

ASk for the weekdays menu during lunch . Two drinks, main dish and coffee ! Delicious ! Lamb and wuca are my favorite dishes ! If you are a coconut fan as myself don't over think it ! ????

Rafał Dubrawski

Unique mix of tastes from Mozambique and Portugal, with some flavours from India. Portions are huge and prices favorable. We had a little talk with the owner, who very good knows English.

@krishaamer

Love the familiar atmosphere and delicious food. Highly recommended. Sit down and you'll see a cast of characters from the neighborhood pass by and say hi to the owners and chat for a few minutes.

Adrian Albon

A real gem, the lamb ribs and makoufe are absolute must try dishes. Friendly service and super lively atmosphere

Lukasch

Just great: everything. Try the frango! But the vegan food is also delicious.

Julie Nguyen

Excellent olives , fries , samosas , and shrimp curry !! Crowded , energetic vibe which says a lot about the place!

Megan Tuell

The lamb dish is amazing! A bit spicy but probably the best dish I’ve had in a long while. 5 stars!

Matt Barber

Excellent. Try getting two dishes and sharing. Lovely outside area and good value wine .

Paul Lambie

We had crab , coconut sauce , swordfish , mussels . A busy, busy little place hidden away and worth seeking out.

MENU Portugal

Some nice traditional dishes , African with Portuguese ingredients. Try the shrimp rise ones!

Shabna Zaheer

Sebastian is the best server and such a lovely person! However the food just needed a bit more of a kick. The chamussas need a tomato sauce and the lamb curry was too salty

K B

Outdoor seating . Exciting Mozambican dishes (spicy Basra lamb ribs ). Also samosas

Daniel Grayson

The lamb falls apart as you touch it, that’s how tender it is. Falls apart , I say.

Heather Aggus

Had the Makoufe - a coconut , crab and shrimp stew with greens. Was fantastic!

Tereza Palaonta

Amazing African food ! You have to try it. Cheap .

Trina

Samosas were awesome

Dania Bdeir

Lamb chakuti is delicious !!! The makoufe is alright but too creamy. It pales in comparison to the chakuti

Manu Tercic

Unfortunately disappointed by a place that has no interest and is not cheap for what it is. Don't understand the enthusiasm. You can get much better in Lisboa!

MsFong

Really yummy beef samosas but watch out for the very spicy sauce !

Yanko Stoyanov

Pretty decent food, notably affrican influence, but easy on the pallet.

Tanya Gagarina

The meat with coconut rise was like my mom cooked!!

The lamb was excellent.

maria kokoli

Great atmosphere, good food and friendly staff

Khalid Khas

Best in town a must

@krishaamer

Lunchtime you can find the place just by the smell of chicken roasting on the grill.

Dennis A. Van Poucke

Food was good, but nothing extraordinary. Superfriendly and helpful staff .

Ronnie Ox

Brilliant atmosphere...

Louise de Paus

Sorry, verdwaald

Florian Buch

Food was a bit bland. Poor service, ordered a second drink that never came even after reminding them about it but it showed up three times on the bill.

Miguel

Waited one hour for the food :-/

Marina Hristovska

The worst food I ever ate...The crab smelled like rotten ????

Basak Candemir

If I was living in Lisbon, it could be a place I come once in a while but as a tourist I don’t think you need to go out of your way to visit this placr

Jörg Schneider

Einfach wunderbar etwas versteckt gelegen.Tolles afrikanisch-portugiesisch-indisches Essen variiert nach Jahreszeit.Probiert das Wuco mit Erdnußsauce und KokosreisAbends ist reservieren sehr sinnvoll!

Lara Mengatti

ótima surpresa em Lisboa! Fica aberto até tarde, a comida é incrível e muito bem temperada (várias entradas e apenas uma opção de prato vegetariano , que vale a pena) e o atendimento é surpreendente.

João Pedro Amaral

Comida muito boa e muito em conta. Indicado para jantares de grupo (fazem menu para grupos com bebida a descrição). O staff é muito simpático. Vale a pena.

Juan Ramón Chávez Saldaña

Esta increíble desde el ambiente , es una decoración de barrio ! La comida esta súper es recomendable ampliamente !

João Moreira

Aos fins de semana os preços aumentam para uma média de 10€. Têm esplanada e wi fi. Paparis muito oleosos, chamuça vegetariana era muito boa, no geral bom mas com o preço um pouco puxado.

pierre C

Franchement un service digne d'un bistrot parisien ... (Désagréable) pour le reste (l'essentiel) c'est plutôt bon sans être génial... Les bananes en entrée sont une tuerie et les desserts à éviter

Rui Marques

Bom espaço de esplanada para uma noite quente ao ritmo africano. O Caril de camarão estava bom. Bom preço/qualidade

João Ferreira

Belo prato vegetariano !

Ana Rocha

Onde se mata a saudade de mandioca , maracujá , caju ❤️

Gilberto Barbosa Pereira

Frango Zambeziana e uma delicia recomendo

Francisco Costa

Melhor comida moçambicana de Lisboa.

Cristiane Ganan

Frango a Zambeziana: prato simples mas muito saboroso!! Recomendo.
