BouBou's Lisboa Reviews
Eccentric wine couplings with the 7 'moment' dinner.
The white Azore's wine was almost devoid of flavor. The orange wine from Georgia was virtually unsinkable. The food however although eccentric in itself was notable for introducing us to flavors and combinations that startled and thrilled. $500
Perfect for me and my BouBou!
A lovely experience for me and my Boubou! BouBou’s was a last minute arrangement. I was eyeing up this restaurant and had been two minds due to negative comments. We had booked a restaurant but on the day received a text saying they could only ta
TRAVELERS AVOID -
TRAVELERS AVOID - We couldn't make our reservation due unforeseen travel delays. We gave them more than a days notice that we couldn't make it. NO EXCEPTION and arrogantly stated we didn't honor our reservation and charged FULL PRICE!
Top Chef in Lisboa !
Well known as the topchef context winner in 2022, Louise Bourat's restaurant, called Boubou, was in the plans of our visit to Lisbonne for my birthday. We have been really impressed by the creativity and the flavors of all the plates proposed (
Gastronomic treat!
This is a nice space/restaurant next to the Museu Nacional de História Natural e da Ciência. The ambiance is great and staff young, international (our server was French), energetic and friendly! Apparently this place has gotten on people's r
What a delightful restaurant.
It is much more than just a delicious meal, it is an amazing experience. The restaurant is on a quiet street in the Principe Real neighborhood. The physical space is very inviting. It is a cozy and intimate space with delightful decor that makes you

Left in fate's hands, I somehow stumbled on BouBou's not knowing what I was getting into. I asked the hotel I was at for a "nice meal" and they made me a reservation for me, alone at this great place. When I walked into the nond

This was the best food I've ever eaten.
The service was impeccable and the food was inventive and delicious. We tried both the vegetarian and the omnivorous tasting meals. WOW. This restaurant should have multiple Michelin stars. If you're in Lisbon this is a must try.
Good, but not exceptional as expected.
My wife was super excited to visit during our Lisbon visit, so this was our open night dinner from our tour group. Upon entering, the ambience and vibe are great. Our table wasn’t ready so they had us sit at the bar. Ended up getting the Gun Smoke

Gastronomic Adventure
Boubou’s is truly a gastronomic adventure. Each course, or moment, is a work of art. I highly recommend the wine pairing. We learned about local grapes and vintages. This is a dinning experience which should not be rushed. I do not agree with previ
The cherry on top of the cake
We noticed boubou’s a few years ago after a yoga class a few doors down. Walked by and got a reservation. I was a little nervous seeing some of the other reviews. But after an aperitif and the “snacks”. I knew we were in for a treat. The cr
A Memorable Meal
I can’t say enough about our wonderful experience at Boubou’s. The service was friendly and exceptional, notably from the wine sommelier. The food (from a pre-fixed menu) was just as excellent — we ate things we never thought we would like (ton
As soon as I walked in, I felt in a better mood.
The greenery outside and inside is so beautiful. I love how they decorated everything! I got a bench seat and it was comfy. All the servers were female, and they were all so nice and professional. They spoke English, which was so helpful. A couple
This spot was only few steps from our Air B&B.
We feel so lucky we found it. Michelin recommended. There are two types of tasting menus. $85 vegetarian & $95 for the meat. $65 for wine pairing. I feel sad I forgot sommeliers name, but she was AMAZING. The whole team seems knowledgeabl

I'm going to drop a big recommendation here but also going to give a critical review. If you're trying to be elite, then you get the elite review! Firstly at 95 euro for the omnivore, BouBou's is a must. You're going to get a true Michelin experienc
This may be one of the best meals I've ever had.
It's the most expensive meal we had in Europe, but it was so incredible! Each course was served expertly, and the staff was great at communicating what and how we were eating each course. I did the carte Blanche wine pairing, and it was worth every p
This place is pricey but so worth it! It is a chefs choice
This place is pricey but so worth it! It is a chefs choice -7 course meal and it was amazing! The inside of the restaurant is beautiful. The service was exceptional!
A wonderful experience
We had the vegetarian set menu, which was fantastic. Such interesting dishes that were very creative but also satisfying. We also had the non-alcoholic drink pairings to go with each course, which is a great idea that I haven't seen elsewhere. The st
What a find!
This was a great and unexpected experience as I've walked past this restaurant several times and wasn't expected such good quality. Starting with the cocktails in the bar area, staff to the vegetarian tasting menu, everything was perfect!
Had to cancel an hour before reservation.
Was on "wait list" because every night showed no available tables until 10:30. Appears the "wait list" is a ploy to make you think this is a popular place. Rude owner told me people like me were ruining her business when i called

Each posting on AppointmentTrader shows you which user submitted it and along with that provides a trackrecord of that user which indicates how much experience

If there is no user posting that fits your schedule, you can bid on your preferred time.
Let's say Peter has a great morning and decides to take his three friends to BouBou's Lisboa at 6 PM the same day.
He checks the restaurant's website and sees that no reservations are available. He then looks at the BouBou's Lisboa page on AppointmentTrader, but finds that there are no user postings either.
That's where the community-driven bid process comes in.
Peter can place a bid on AppointmentTrader, which serves as a reward for any community member who chooses to work on securing the reservation. AT then notifies experienced users who may be able to help.
Step-by-Step Process
1.) Setting a Reward (Bid)
* AppointmentTrader uses historical data to recommend a reasonable reward amount for securing a reservation - let's say $100.
* Peter really wants to go, so he increases the bid (or reward) to $200.
* At this stage, the reservation does not exist yet.
2.) A Community User Picks Up the Bid
* ElaborateHouse74, an experienced AT user, has a strong track record of successfully securing reservations and low refund requests, they receive a notification about Peter's $200 bid.
* ElaborateHouse74 picks up the bid, meaning they will now work on securing the reservation.
* Peter can now talk to ElaborateHouse74 for any questions Peter may have as ElaborateHouse74 user fills the bid.
3.) Finding the Reservation
* ElaborateHouse74 now uses their connections at BouBou's Lisboa to secure the table.
* If they successfully get the 6 PM table for four, Peter receives a confirmation that the reservation has been secured.
* If ElaborateHouse74 fails to secure the reservation, the bid is returned to the pool so another user can try.
4.) Payment & Protection
* Once the reservation is secured, ElaborateHouse74 receives the $200 reward which is credited to ElaborateHouse74's AT balance, where users manage their own funds and can withdraw via available payout options such as bank transfer, PayPal, or Zelle.
* Peter can now enjoy the dinner with his friends at BouBou's Lisboa!
* As with all transactions on AT, disputes and no-show fees are handled through the platform's community-driven resolution system. Users with a strong track record are incentivized to fulfill bids successfully, and community members can report issues to maintain trust in the marketplace.
