Situated on Rua da Boavista, RUMI Lisboa is a restaurant-bar that offers a rich taste of the Eastern Mediterranean, fusing Turkish, Aegean, and Levantine culinary traditions. The menu is built around mezze — both hot and cold — complemented by open-fire grilled dishes that highlight smokiness and depth of flavour. Signature cocktails and classic drinks are juxtaposed with natural wines and rakı, offering a drink for every mood. The design of the space balances cozy and vibrant: soft lights, artful décor, a mix of textures and colours that reflect the heritage of its founders. Elements like arches and pillars nod to traditional architecture, while details like handcrafted ceramic lamps and carefully curated art pieces bring personality. Both indoor and outdoor seating allow guests to choose their preferred atmosphere, whether for an evening out or a relaxed daytime visit. Portions are meant for sharing, encouraging conviviality among diners. Vegetarians and lovers of bold spices will find many options. Prices are moderate, accessible for lunch outings or casual dinners. RUMI Lisboa isn’t just about food — it’s about creating connections: dinner becomes an event, and meals become memories infused with warmth, flavour, and atmosphere.
