Super Mário - Benfica

Amazing experience, such nice wholesome, tasty food, really lovely service. Such good value. One of the best places we’ve been in Portugal, thank you

Amazing place in Lisbon! Family owned and operated. The owners are extremely friendly and kind. On top of that, the food was delicious and he brought out homemade spicy salsas for us to try. Loved it!

It’s not a tourist but a local restaurant! Traditional Portuguese food, good wine and nice atmosphere with local people!

A must visit. It is next to another restaurant that seems to cater to tourists on a narrow street. Wife and I were waiting for a table there. We decided to give Super Mario a try after seeing a bunch of locals going in and reading the Google Map reviews. It is a local restaurant frequented mostly by Portugese locals. Exactly the type of experience we were after. Owner doesn't speak English but seems to understand a bit of Spanish. Owner was very welcoming and always laughing. Was able to communicate somewhat through Spanish. It is located near many touristy restaurants. We had a lot of food and it was cheap. Grilled sardines, octopus rice, sausages, soup, salad, beer, soda, espresso and cake for dessert. All that for ~25€ don't remember exactly but am sure it was under 30€. Owner went out of his way to give us condiments and instructed us to use them on the dishes. One was a peri peri type hot sauce delicious. Everything was really good and tasty. Can't wait to try other items the next time we are in Lisbon! We really enjoyed our meal here. It was the owner's affable personality that drove the experience over the top!

Cheap, local, hearty, tasty. Owner doesn’t speak a lick of English, but he doesn’t need to. Free cheese (pictured), free salad (bit on the sour side) and then two carb-heavy plates of food PLUS a full litre of wine and a dessert came barely up to about €25. A Bargain like nowhere else in central Lisbon. So close to the central touristy areas, yet no tourists whatsoever (apart from us). 100% recommend for some Portuguese home-cooked-style food!
