About Cicero

The moment a dish arrives at the table, it hints at the care behind the preparation. At Cicero, the delicate balance between innovation and tradition becomes apparent, especially when exploring the varied offerings that appear on its menu. Many diners browsing photos capture the vibrant presentations — a visual testament to the kitchen’s attention to detail. However, while some plates impress with complexity, others might lean too heavily on familiar flavors, which could leave those seeking bold culinary surprises wanting more. The ambiance softly whispers a contemporary charm, inviting a relaxed pace that complements the nuanced selection without overwhelming the senses.

Notable in various reviews of the Cicero restaurant is the attentiveness intertwined with moments where service lapses slightly during busier periods. These fluctuations, while small, can influence the overall rhythm of the dining experience, though they do not diminish the genuine warmth that the staff convey. Culinary choices here favor a thoughtful approach rather than eye-popping novelty, offering a blend of seasonally inspired ingredients that reflect Portugal’s rich gastronomic landscape. Prices feel aligned with the quality presented, suggesting a modest investment for a meal that respects traditional roots even as it flirts with subtle contemporary updates.

Stepping away from location specifics, the essence of Cicero lies in its embrace of timelessness over trends. The restaurant’s atmosphere allows diners to linger, encouraged by an unhurried service and plates meant to be savored slowly. For anyone comparing Cicero’s menu or searching for honest insights through past customer reviews, a pattern emerges; it is a place where comfort in cuisine speaks louder than culinary fireworks. Photograph-worthy moments exist, though they serve more as an honest reflection of craft than staged perfection. This authenticity might well be the defining trait that sets Cicero apart amidst Lisbon’s vibrant dining scene.

The place was cozy and elegant. The food was magnificent: very well cooked and prepared, the presentation was beautiful and every flavor was very well combined - the result was fantastic. The mixture of the French and Brazilian references translated a passion for food and absolute control. The service was nice, with know-how about every moment. The wine was also good. One of the best spots in Lisbon for dinner. To come back for sure.

Great food, fresh, innovative and brilliantly cooked and presented; impeccable service, professional, friendly; wonderful decor and art pieces. Tables slightly too close to each other and staff at times too present, but that’s a detail. Only negative point: low value for money ie too expensive for Lisbon standards, even for upscale restaurants. Enjoyed it, but won’t be coming back.

Worth to try! Place is Beautifully decorated inside, menu is short however everything we had was well done and well balanced in flavors. The Octupus carpacio was great. Few options were not available from the menu so just ask the server what is available. Service is outstanding by the entire team including timing of the food perfectly coursed. The place was so so quiet inside so a background music would improve ambiance. Soup was also great!

The service was impeccable, from the warm welcome to the last good bye, we were well attended to throughout our dining experience. It was difficult making a choice from the exquisite menu, in retrospect we should have consulted our servers for a more varied selection. The food did not disappoint, we stayed mostly with seafood and now I can't help by wonder about the other options. Excellent wine selection! Being surrounded by the beautiful artwork creates an overall superb dining atmosphere
