Fodor's Expert Review Cantinho do Aziz

$ Intendente, Martim Moniz, and Mouraria African Fodor's Choice

A beloved local institution, Cantinho do Aziz is one of the best places in Lisbon to try African cuisine. The interior is cozy and welcoming, but in the summer you'll want to take a seat at one of the tables on the cobblestones outside. The menu at the low-key, relaxed spot features fragrant and spicy dishes like bakra (spicy lamb ribs) or prawns cooked with okra and coconut milk. There's always at least one vegan dish, and the homemade hot sauce will have you reaching for an ice cold beer or glass of wine.
