Tapas 28

Unfortunately this was our first experience in Lisbon. Arriving late evening and leaving our stuff, we found this place to start off our taste of Lisbon. It was a disaster.
This place is a tourist trap. The service is not mediocre but a joke. We were told we had to order minimum 3 tapas when there was no indication on menu or on door. They were not friendly with us either. Being guests in their country, you’d think its understandable that we are asking for recommendations.
After a few days in Lisbon you realize how expensive this place truly was. The quality of meals is pretty low too adding bitterness to the experience.
If you’re looking for a drink or just a snack… Just move on somewhere else.

Walking through Bairro Alto and sitting on the open air stairs to have some tapas seems like a perfect thing to enjoy the night. But unfortunately the cocktails were not very good and not worth the price and then tapas can not compete with other tapas places around the corner.
Along with that the waiters were snobbish and didn’t care to explain anything to us.
We won’t come back

Tourist trap. Food is ok but way too expensive and way too small portions. I got 3 meatballs for 11 € and my friend got some sort of fried fish with more dough than fish for 8 €. Drinks were fine but also expensive. Service was ok and doing their best considering how busy it was. They charge you for the bread and olives automatically but they don’t ask if you want it, just put it on the table. We didn’t touch it and they still put it on our bill but we refused to pay so they had to redo the bill.

Appetizers were served and finally charged to our account but nobody advised with relevant cost.
Dishes are very small but you pay as if they were normal sized. service is fast but as soon as you are done you will be asked to leave even if still wanting to drink something because tables are only for eating.
You can find better place around.

Tout d’abord je tiens a préciser que je n’ai pas mangé dans ce lieu et je vais vous expliquer pourquoi :
En se baladant a la recherché de grignotages et boissons dans le bairro alto, nous sommes tombés sur cette petite rue plein de charme puisque les gens s’attablent ou s’asseyent a même les marches (avec coussins et petites tables) pour déguster des «tapas».
Ça fait très touristique mais on a l’air d’y être bien ! On décide donc de s’y installer. Allant vers la serveuse pour demander une table, celle ci nous rétorque sans la moindre amabilité d’attendre a l’intérieur qu’une table se libère. Nous n’avions franchement pas envie d’attendre a l’intérieur car il y avait un temps merveilleux! Nous nous postons donc a l’extérieur a l’affût d’une table :)
une place se libère finalement très vite, nous nous attablons. Nous nous sommes alors pris une bonne remarque de cette même serveuse qui nous explique qu’en fait trois couples attendent déjà A L’INTÉRIEUR! Si elle l’avait dit de suite… Nous décidons donc face a ce manqué d’amabilité de partir.
Malheureusement j’avais vraiment envie de goûter ces fameuses tapas. Nous sommes donc revenus environ 20min plus tard et avons eu une place directement. Sauf que la, toujours bien sur avec l’amabilité de la serveuse, nous avons découvert les prix !!!
L’arnaque !!! Très cher et des petites assiettes… Et en plus attention, vous devez payer 2.50 € par personne rien que parce que vous êtes assis a cette terrasse !!!
Nous sommes ainsi finalement repartis ailleurs et avons trouvé beaucoup moins cher dans un endroit merveilleux ! (Allez vois mes avis ;))

Kind of a tourist trap, but I suppose could be worth it if you get to sit outside and eat on the steps (see pictures). We unfortunately had to eat inside since the outside was full. What we got were overpriced tapas of mediocre quality. Do not expect to get a good meal here, only go it you want to sit outside on the steps and enjoy the scenery.

Service is mediocre. Food is ok but not worth it for the price they charge. The outside area is very nice but you can get better service, food and price in the same neighborhood.

Mi experiencia en este sitio ha sido bastante mala, la comida no era gran cosa y el precio es alto para lo que comes. Ademas nos querian cobrar los aperitivos q no habiamos probado. Lo mejor la sangria de vino blanco.

Localizado em pleno Bairro Alto, o Tapas 28 é um óptimo sítio para quem gosta de comer fora d’horas. Além disso tem uma esplanada maravilhosa, o que é raro por estas bandas. Até nas escadinhas se colocaram bancos e almofadas para a malta se sentar a beber uma cervejinha e a comer umas deliciosas tapas com spanish twist. Fiquei fã do Ceviche de Peixe, mas as gambas, as batatas bravas e os pimentos pádron também estão aprovados. Tanto se pode vir aqui jantar, como simplesmente picar algo a acompanhar uma bebida.
O sítio está sempre pejado de turistas pelo que o ambiente é normalmente muito animado e descontraído. O atendimento é competente e afável. Só é pena ser um bocadinho puxado para a minha carteira, senão estava lá todas as semanas!

Estava a tentar resistir a este Restaurante, mas sempre que passava na rua, aquela esplanada amorosa que o restaurante tem, chamava por mim, é um esplanada muito bem organizada, num espaço pequeno ao pé de umas escadinhas que dão a uma rua principal do Bairro Alto, escadas essas que aproveitaram para por almofadas, a fazer de banquinhos, e onde as pessoas se sentam confortavelmente a beber um copo de vinho e a conversarem, nas noites de verão, não há melhor. Depois o atendimento é muito bom, lembro-​me bastante bem do empregado ser muito simpático e de ele ter aconselhado as melhoras tapas a provar e o melhor vinho a acompanhar, a música ambiente, é optima. O Tapas 28 é sem dúvida um «cantinho» muito agradável de se estar. Fiquei sentada bastante tempo na esplanada a desfrutar das maravilhosas tapas e do vinho que me aquecia o coração :)

O Tapas tem além de um excelente espaço interior, tem a melhor esplanada do bairro: no meio da rua sentados no chão, em mesinhas coloridas.
O atendimento não é simpático, mas o que se come aqui é simpático e a cerveja é excelente (bem fresquinha). Eu comi uns pinchos e umas petingas e gostei bastante.
É o ideal para estarmos entre amigos a conversar.
