Portuguese restaurants that deliver straight to your door
As Portugal's dining out culture shifts to eating at home, residents are still craving the comfort of their favourite local restaurants. Here, we present our pick of the Portuguese restaurants offering takeaway and delivery
Ajitama
While dining in under the restaurant's famed wooden trellis ceiling installation is no doubt a great experience, the good news is that Ajitama's ramen is just as tasty when eaten from the comfort of your own dining table. Named after the seasoned half-boiled eggs that traditionally top the soup noodle dish, the restaurant, which began as a supper club concept by two ramen aficionados, serves up a variety of different ramen options alongside tempting dishes like Japanese curry or gyozas.
Dish to order: Hakata Tonkotsu Ramen
Delivers in: Lisbon
Antonio Maçanita
Wine fans need not go thirsty, for Antonio Maçanita – the winemaker behind some of Portugal's most well-known brands – has now launched an online shop, which stocks all of his bestsellers to be delivered straight to your door. From the Azores Wine Company's Volcanic collection to the classic range from Fita Pereta, or even bottles from the Sexy Wines label, the company ships nationwide and half the sales will be donated to the Red Cross, for the campaign #ihelpwhohelps.
Wine to order: Laranja Mecânica
Delivers: Nationwide

Attla
Culinary tourists can still taste the world through chef André Fernandes, whose contemporary Portuguese menu at Attla is flecked with influences from his stints in kitchens around the globe, from Barcelona to Bora Bora, the Caribbean and even Papua New Guinea. Now available for takeaway or delivery, the menu changes often, but expect seasonal dishes using local ingredients like the Thai green pumpkin and grain curry or the Moroccan smoked pork chops.
Dish to order: Cauliflower glazed with elderflower vinegar, spinach satay and sorrel (if available)

Audaz
Only opening its doors last month in Lisbon's Campo de Ourique neighbourhood, Audaz hasn't yet had a chance to strut its stuff. The good news, is the gastropub has swiftly organised a delivery menu so that Lisboners can still get a taste of its delicious modern Portuguese dishes from chicken gizzards cooked with potato and garlic to beetroot tartar served with smoked yoghurt and pickles.
Dish to order: Cod with toasted onion puree and potato rosti

Cavalariça
A go-to for hungry families after a day at the beach, Cavalariça is the ultimate in laidback, feel-good vibes. And while seaside holidays are off limits for now, locals can still get a taste of the restaurant's delicious whole bread and butter alongside favourites such as the beef lasagne or the cod and leek potato pie, available for collection on the weekends.
Dish to order: Barbecue free-range chicken
Delivers in: Comporta
Olivia
Behind some of Lisbon's much-loved restaurants, including Meat Me and Soāo, the SeaMe Group has made the most of the situation and smartly launched a new burger delivery brand called Olivia. Available to order from Uber Eats, there are nine juicy burger options from the Classic with red inion, tomato, lettuce and barbecue sauce to more inventive choices like the Thai chicken burger.
Dish to order: Bacon burger with chips

Vítor Sobral's restaurants
Best-known as a champion of modern Portuguese cuisine, celebrity chef Vítor Sobral continues to feed Lisbon from three of his outposts: Tasca da Esquina, Peixaria da Esquina, and Padaria da Esquina. And while you might not get the conviviality that usually accompanies his food, you can still enjoy laid back, wholesome and relaxed dishes and baked goods from cod with potato and egg to delicious breads and pastries.
Dish to order: Octopus with sweet potato and mint

Wines by Heart
While Wines By Heart is not currently serving it's delicious ‘wine-friendly food' like the pork tacos or the fresh oysters, fans of this wine bar – where over 800 different labels line the walls – can still access their favourite wines with a quick dial of the phone or via social media. If you prefer to wait, the restaurant is also offering discounted vouchers online, which can be used when things are up and running again.
