India Gate

Alfama, Castelo & Graça


If you just can't deal with any more bacalhau, the Gujarati owners at this classy curry house oversee some of Lisbon's best Indian cuisine and are unafraid to give it a bit of bite if you ask. The solid menu of chicken, lamb, shrimp and veg classics (including some Goan specialities), served sizzling in traditional cookware, is a welcome respite.
