O Ciclo Lisbon

Farm to table restaurant in Mouraria

Alzbeta from Lisbon

"O Ciclo is a cozy, family-run spot serving seasonal, locally inspired dishes with French and Japanese influences. Go for the 7-course tasting menu!"

O Ciclo is a family-run sustainable restaurant in the heart of the Mouraria. Young Portuguese couple Claudia and Jose came back to Lisbon after 6 years in France (Paris, Champagne) to create their project. They opened the restaurant focused on seasonal and local produce, recreating Portuguese and French recipes. Using influences from Japan and other Asian cuisines to preserve, ferment, and prevent waste.

The restaurant has 20 seats, and you can either choose from the ala carte menu or you can dive into the degustation menu, consisting of 7 courses. I definitely advise you to try it all and choose the degustation. Prepare yourself for a ride full of contrasting flavours, and textures dancing in perfect harmony with wine pairing.

Claudia is in charge of the service, she will gladly help you choose the perfect wine and guide you through the menu, while Jose will create the astonishing food creation in the kitchen. The space is beautiful, and almost everything is custom-made, you can adore jars with pickles and other condiments filling the walls.

Lisbon Spotter Alzbeta

Hedonist living the sun and ocean dream in Lisbon since 2023. Originally from Slovakia, but always tempted to move south to the coast with a warmer climate. I'm a chef and baker. When I don't cook or bake, I'm always on the hunt for a new restaurant, bar, a cool new space. I love specialty coffee and natural wine. I consider many winemakers to be my friends, I love to visit wine cellars or help with a harvest. I got you covered with anything food and drinks related in Lisbon. I can provide you with tips on where to get the most fresh organic veggies, fish, or the widest selection of cheese.�...
