Charming
Good for special occasions
Great for fine wines

A hidden gem and intimate restaurant with a private art collection that inspires a gastronomic menu signed by the Parisian-based and Brazilian-born rising star chef Alessandra Montagne, who took the helm in November 2024 with an upscaling of the proposal. An extraordinary experience in an out-of-the-ordinary location. Alessandra used her creativity and research about the Brazilian modernist movement to create a menu full of colors and textures.

Cícero Bistrot in Lisbon, now led by the talented Brazilian chef Alessandra Montagne, brilliantly merges culinary artistry with the spirit of Brazilian and Portuguese flavors, complemented by French refinement. Inspired by Brazilian modernist painter Cícero Dias, Montagne's dishes are vibrant and inventive, from her “Tapioca Cubes” to the fusion "Coxinha with Caviar." Each course is a tribute to local, seasonal ingredients presented with elegance, making this bistrot a standout for food lovers and art enthusiasts alike . Love it!

Amazing gastronomic experience! The newly renovated Cìcero with chef Alessandra Montagne made our dining experience the most pleasurable we had in Lisbon. Quaint atmosphere, excellent and personable service! We have experienced many Michelin rated restaurants (including 1 to 3 stars) and this place should definitely be on their list.

It was very nice to revisit this gem in Lisbon. The menu has become more audacious. It is an ideal place for engaging in conversations—a pre-social media concept.

This amazing restaurant was a hidden gem in a nice residential area. The artistry and decoration was a perfect setting and matched the incredible dinner and wine served. The owner and his staff were so friendly and inviting. Highly recommend making a reservation and enjoying a wonderful evening. We will be back next trip to Portugal.
