About Uma Marisqueira II (R. do Comércio )
Lunch or dinner on Rua do Comércio in Alfama runs on a simple logic: fresh seafood, generous portions, and staff who steer you right. The seafood rice is the dish most people come back for — a small portion feeds two — and the paella and grilled octopus follow close behind on almost every table. The octopus salad rounds out what the kitchen does best. The room is unfussy and close-quartered, the kind of place that feels like it has always been here. What makes the difference is the floor: servers like Seye, Jack, and Ndiaga take the time to read the table, suggest dishes, and see the meal through. The cherry liquor at the end of the night is worth leaving room for.
