From a reviewer’s perspective, the menu at Can The Can Lisboa presents a well-balanced mix of modern Portuguese flavors and seafood-driven creativity, with a clear focus on both tradition and contemporary twists. The selection of Chef’s Recommendations by Pedro Almeida, especially QUINOA BOOST and the TASTING PLATTER OF COLD FISHES FROM THE SEA, sets a fresh and health-conscious tone right from the start. The starters offer a strong coastal identity, featuring highlights such as SPICY GARLIC SHRIMPS, TUNA PASTRAMI SANDWICH, MUSHROOMS “BULHÃO DE PATO” style, PICA-PAU - FRIED VEAL PIECES WITH PICKLES, and FRIED CUTTLEFISH, each bringing a distinct Portuguese influence with a modern presentation.
The main dishes continue this seafood-forward approach, with standout options like OVEN BAKED COD FISH LOIN, OCTOPUS “LAGAREIRO”, CAN THE CAN STEAK, BRAISED TUNA STEAK, and CONFIT CHICKEN, offering both land and sea choices that feel thoughtfully curated. The salad section keeps things lighter yet flavorful, with QUINOA BOOST, CHICKEN CÉSAR, RED RICE AND FETA CHEESE, and SHRIMPS CÉSAR, catering to those seeking fresher or more balanced options. Pasta lovers are also well served with SPAGUETTI WITH SARDINES, BLACK LINGUINI WITH SHRIMPS, and CHICKEN RAVIOLI, each emphasizing bold Mediterranean ingredients.
To finish, the dessert offerings such as CHOCOLATE MOUSSE and FRUIT SALAD provide a simple but satisfying close to the meal. The burger section adds a casual edge with items like CAN THE CAN HAMBURGUER, AZORES CHEESEBURGER, and the seafood-inspired TUNA STEAK SANDWICH, reinforcing the restaurant’s versatility. Overall, the menu feels cohesive, seafood-led, and distinctly tied to Portuguese culinary identity while still appealing to a wide range of tastes.
