It is located inside the former Santa Clara Monastery, on the banks of the Ave River, now converted into the luxurious The Lince Santa Clara hotel, and boasts a truly majestic entrance. The restaurant itself conceals a surprising history, as it was hidden (hence its name) and had to be completely excavated to restore the original stone walls and reveal its beautiful vaulted brick ceilings. The modern and elegant culinary offering, jointly signed by renowned Chefs Vítor Matos and Hugo Rocha, comes exclusively in the form of two tasting menus closely connected to the marine world and seasonal products: Flora (6 courses, vegetarian option available with advance reservation) and Imersão (“Immersion”) (option of 6 or 8 courses). The first appetisers and the final petit fours, as well as coffee, are served in a comfortable seating area facing the kitchen, so… you can watch the chefs at work while they prepare dessert!
