VDB Bistronomie

Untipycal Lisbon restaurant

Welcome!

Our ever-evolving à la carte menu is inspired by the seasons and the freshest local ingredients. We work closely with nearby producers to bring you the very best Portugal has to offer.

Our dishes are designed to be shared, but if you’re feeling solo, that’s cool too. Just don’t be afraid to get a little shellfish over your favorites.

Sustainability is at the heart of what we do. That’s why we prioritize working with Portuguese producers and serve only natural and biodynamic wines, carefully selected from Portugal and other renowned regions around the world. You’ll also find a curated selection of craft beers on our list.

We collaborate with reputable producers such as Terramay, Nutrifresco, A Cerquinha, and Do Becco, people who share our values and commitment to quality.

Chef Rafael Amsler brings creativity and care to every plate. Clément will be your host, always attentive and ready to help with anything you need.

If you have any questions about the menu or food intolerances, or allergies, don’t hesitate to ask Clément.

Opening hours:

Wednesday to Sunday, 7 pm to midnight
