Sara from Lisbon

About me I am a writer swimming in the IT ocean and rolling through life on my roller skates. You can also find me with a photo camera in one hand and creating pictorial scenes with the other. Despite that, I'm really not good at multitasking, but I'm always thinking about what to do next, how to reinvent myself. That is what brought me to Lisbon in 2016 to start a brand new life. ...

La Villa Lisbon

Italian restaurant - wood oven

"I've been on a quest for the best truffle pizza in Lisbon and I feel like "La Villa" at Campo dos Mártires da Pátria is on its own quest to earn the first place..."

I've been on a quest for the best truffle pizza in Lisbon and I feel like La Villa at Campo dos Mártires da Pátria is on its own quest to earn the first place.

La Villa first opened during the pandemic, right in the middle of the garden at Campo dos Mártires da Pátria, with a wooden, romantic terrace for cozy summer nights or a glazed dining room if you feeling cold, and a wood oven, where they cook the amazing pizzas (which are not the only course on the menu, but I strongly recommend you pick the porcini pizza).

Going to La Villa means you will experience being treated like royalty without the snobbery, as you'll get the impression that the main goal of each waiter/waitress is to make sure you live the best moments ever, both gastronomy- and ambiance-wise.

If you are undecided, just pick a dessert blindfolded: all of the choices are exquisite, so there is no way you won't be delighted.

My advice to you is to not park nearby and to take advantage of the fact that La Villa is at a walking distance from almost anywhere in Lisbon. That's how you will not only extend a great moment, but also instigate the digestion of an amazing meal.

Oh, and the cherry on top? It is a pet-friendly restaurant.
