    Fabulous Portuguese Dinner

    Ze is a great host and wonderful cook. We had a great time from when we walked in until we left many hours later. He quickly put us at ease, making it clear we should feel at home. In his family, the table is the place to be - to enjoy great food and wine, and one another. We were able to experience this at his home. As the five of us don't speak Portuguese, Ze's fluency in English made it easy to talk about many topics. He loves to talk about the foods, cheeses and wines of Portugal. You get a clear appreciation of what he is serving and why it is a typical dish in Portugal. With five of us, we had several food restrictions which wasn't a problem for Ze. In one case, he prepared a delicious typical dish which one of us couldn't eat. He also prepared a variation of that same dish so that person could eat it and get a sense of the original dish. Ze is an urban planner, as are two of us. He provided many insights about development in Lisbon and Portugal. It was a delightful evening. Fabulous food, wonderful atmosphere and truly a great bargain.

    Response from the operator: Thank you so much for a great review. we’re delighted to hear that you loved your Eatwith experience with Ze! We hope to see you at an Eatwith table again soon, either in your hometown or during your travels!

    Memorable Experience

    It was our first time participating with Eatwith and this was also our first time traveling to Lisbon, Portugal. We decided last minute to participate as we couldn't get reservation to a specific restaurant we wanted for our last night's special dinner treat. I came upon this service and I was intrigued, but it also felt adventurous! Ze and Priscilla made our trip that much memorable. They opened their cute home to us and made us feel at home. We did not feel one bit awkward especially with other travelers and there was never a dull moment. We went through probably 5-6 bottles of wine! Most importantly, the dinner Ze and Priscilla prepared was not only good, but it really embodied the Portuguese culture and experience. They went above and beyond our expectations. I will highly recommend!

    Response from the operator: We’re so happy to hear you enjoyed your Eatwith experience in Lisbon. Our mission is to bring people together around food and Ze and Priscilla do just that! Thanks for your great review and see you soon at another Eatwith somewhere around the world!

    Seasonal Portuguese Lunch with a Local in His Charming Home: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Lisbon.

    How much does Seasonal Portuguese Lunch with a Local in His Charming Home cost?

    +

    Prices start at $190 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Lisbon usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Seasonal Portuguese Lunch with a Local in His Charming Home take?

    +

    Plan for about 2.5 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Lisbon is not rushed.

    Is Seasonal Portuguese Lunch with a Local in His Charming Home worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 51 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 2 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Lisbon, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Seasonal Portuguese Lunch with a Local in His Charming Home?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Seasonal Portuguese Lunch with a Local in His Charming Home suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2.5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Seasonal Portuguese Lunch with a Local in His Charming Home?

    +

    Around 1 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Lisbon can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Lisbon and add a light layer if any part of the 2.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Seasonal Portuguese Lunch with a Local in His Charming Home start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Lisbon within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Lisbon?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Lisbon experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Lisbon City Center Tour - The Unmissable Lisbon, Sintra Private Trip from Lisbon Customizable Dreamlike Experience, True 4Hour Private Tuk Tuk Tour: Discover Lisbon with a Local!. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Lisbon?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Lisbon?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.

    What is included in Seasonal Portuguese Lunch with a Local in His Charming Home?

    +

    Included: Meals can be adapted for dietary preferences; Experience first hand the local culture and cuisine; 3-course organic lunch in your local host's home; Insider tips and recommendations from a real local; and An unforgettable moment around the table with other foodies. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    Where is the meeting point for Seasonal Portuguese Lunch with a Local in His Charming Home?

    +

    ⚠️THIS IS NOT THE COMPLETE ADDRESS. THE FULL ADDRESS WILL BE ON YOUR CONFIRMATION VOUCHER UNDER THE "BEFORE YOU GO" SECTION. Hotel pickup is not included, so plan your own transport and arrive 15 minutes early.

    What languages is Seasonal Portuguese Lunch with a Local in His Charming Home offered in?

    +

    It is offered in Portuguese and English. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.

    Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Seasonal Portuguese Lunch with a Local in His Charming Home?

    +

    Confirmation is sent by the operator after booking, usually within 48 hours; if it is not confirmed you are not charged. Mobile tickets are accepted, so you can show the voucher on your phone.

    What happens to Seasonal Portuguese Lunch with a Local in His Charming Home if the weather is bad?
