Patuá is a true gem in Penha de França — a Macanese tavern with soul, where chef “Xico” pays tribute to his family roots through flavors that blend Macau, Goa, China, Thailand, and Japan. With simple and cozy decor, natural light, and a relaxed atmosphere, this place offers a rare gastronomic journey in Lisbon. The menu features creative and distinctive dishes, such as Cantonese-style fried fish and Macanese minchi, always served in portions designed for sharing. It’s a restaurant where the Luso-Asian heritage is given new life, and where every meal is a discovery of flavors, memories, and reinvented tradition.
Patuá was a unique restaurant in Lisbon, located at Rua Ilha de São Tomé, No. 10-A, in the Penha de França neighborhood. Specializing in Macanese cuisine, it offered authentic dishes reflecting the fusion of Portuguese and Asian influences, such as the traditional minchi, Macanese-style codfish, and okra curry. The décor was simple and cozy, featuring pieces that evoked family memories and Macanese culture. The restaurant was known for its intimate atmosphere and attentive service from owners Francisco Rodrigues and Daniela Silvestre. Unfortunately, Patuá permanently closed due to rising rent costs but left a significant mark on Lisbon’s culinary scene as the city’s only dedicated Macanese restaurant.
It would make sense for Lisbon to have a few good Macanese cuisine restaurants. Macanese cuisine, along with Goan cuisine, is one of the most original culinary fusions in which the Portuguese have participated. It so happens that there are a good half-dozen Goan restaurants in Lisbon, but not so many Macanese ones. (...) It is therefore timely that a Macanese tavern has opened on the border between Anjos and Penha de França.
