Moules & Gin Lisboa — Restaurant in Lisbon

We found this restaurant from Instagram and it looked very nice and modern place. We were able to get seats easily without any reservation.

We ordered three different kind of mussels and those were great. We also ordered steak but that was a mistake. First of all we wanted to share every plate but they started to cook our steak after we had eaten eveything else. Steak was supposed to be medium rare but it was complitely raw instead. We had to complain about it because it was too hard to eat it. Instead of making a new steak for us the waiter took what was left in our serving plate (meaning about 50% of all slized pieces). After few minutes we got the same pieces again but those were still very raw and we just couldn't eat it all.

After cleaning the table our waiter came to show some premade desserts for us and first we thought that they were trying to apologize us but no. Waiter was trying to sell some more food! I don't prefer that kind of behaviour in restaurants.

In a nutshell the mussels were great but if you want to eat something else too or enjoy some good customer service this is not the place,...

We were met with a unfriendly waiter and were served mussels that were plasticky with an oily pesto sauce. The waiter forced us to take a drink because “you understand I can’t sell you mussels without anything else”. No, I can’t. A visit to the toilets revealed the truth: its indications on the door (male, female) were rushed with a pen and the bowls were disgusting with no possibility of cleaning them because there was no brush!

Judging by the flies we have seen through the kitchen glass —which might be explained by the mussels—, we prayed we could get home safe. We did, thank you for asking. When we were presented with the desert options, we rejected them outright and decided to pay. The card reader and the same waiter asked how must tips we wanted to leave. That’s outright brilliant;...

Husband had steak which he liked. I had mussels with parmesan which were good. Bread was undercooked and pale.

I have marked down two start for the bread and the service.we were the only ones in the restaurant and so the staff weren't busy. The waiters kept putting their heads and torsos through the glass window at the kitchen chatting to chefs i assume this glass is for hygiene. Also when we asked for ketchup the waitress laughed said they didn't have any and went directly to the female chef who looked over to us looking very annoyed clearly discussing us. I have no idea what about requesting ketchup for fries is so annoying but it made me very uncomfortable. Had to ask twice for bill even though it...
