Where to eat near Praça do Comércio
10 places within 12 minutes on foot of Praça do Comércio. Start with Belcanto, 8 min walk: the 11-course tasting menu.
The trap to skip
The restaurants under the arcades and along Rua Augusta. Walk two blocks up into Chiado. And the bread, olives and cheese put on the table aren't free: send them back if you don't want them.
