"Hola somos mexicanos y tomamos este tour, nos gusto mucho la experiencia, muy ricos todos los vinos, la explicación, quesos.. vale la pena. Muchas gracias "

"This is a great experience. Yeah, you can go to Portuguese restaurants and eat Portuguese food … but you can do that ANY day. The idea of eating with a local is so very personal and not commercial. So, first, the concept is great. Secondly, our host, Isabel, was very welcoming and pleasant and we were able to hear about her life and that of a resident. She is a very, very lovely person, a good conversationalist and a great cook. We had three bottles of wine between three of us (and there was plenty more if needed) and many starters (different cheeses, tomatoes, bread, etc.) - I probably would have been fine to stop there. Then Isabel brought out our first course of … of … not sure how to describe it. It was kind of like mashed potatoes with Cod and a coating of baked cheese atop - it’s Shepard’s Pie but with cod (is the closest I can think) but, regardless, it was gooooood. Our final dish was black pig … soooo good. Of course, we had to switch from white to red wine for this dish. Then entire night went too fast. Would strongly recommend anyone do this. Well worth it."

"My Aunt and I spent a fabulous evening with Isabel and her dogs. We had an amazing traditional dinner and conversations about history, art and family! We couldn’t recommend an evening with Isabel more. "

"Isabel is a fantastic host who welcomed me into her home with such genuine warmth. It didn't feel like a 'tourist experience'. It felt like dinner with a friend. The meal she prepared was incredible, and the conversation flowed so easily. We talked about everything from local culture to life in the city. If you want a real, authentic taste of Portuguese hospitality, Isabel is the perfect person to visit. Highly recommended"

"Portugal is a dream destination for wine lovers but experiencing it through a private winery tour with Joao elevates everything. He shared his knowledge of wine, the country and the culture. The personalized tour felt less like sightseeing and more like being welcomed into the heart of Portuguese wine culture. We especially enjoyed visiting the small, family-run Casa Agricola Lobo winery for a light lunch and more wine."

"For multiple reasons, I am very late writing this review of our Nov. 20, 2025 booking but we could not have been more pleased with our evening in Isabel's comfortable home. The food was a walk through some of Portugal's best dishes, perfectly prepared and everything very fresh. The conversation was easy and fun and ran the gamut of topics -- and her English is very good and easy to understand. Her two dogs were just sweeties and we were happy to give them some love. We were immediately at ease with Isabel and felt we'd made a good friend by the end of the evening. Her apartment was only a 5 minute walk from our hotel. After dinner, we all took the dogs for their evening walk and she delivered us to our hotel door. We hated to say goodnight. She also served some delicious wines and gave us links to ordering them for delivery in the U.S. and offered to share recipes. It was a perfect way to end our trip, as we flew home the next day with smiles and wonderful memories. We highly recommend this very personal way to experience food and friendship in Lisbon!"

"You walk in, give a hug, sit down and spend an evening amongst friends laughing, discussing and learning. Time flies and before you know it, its time to go for you have to catch a flight the next morning. Thanks so much for the wonderful company! "

"When we booked our trip to Lisbon, one of the first things we did was also book a visit to Isabel. This was our second time and it was just as lovely as the first time. An evening filled with wonderful food, laughter, good stories and fun. This dinner is an absolute recommandation to book if you visit Lisbon. Isabel is the best. "

"Isabel is a fantastic host...a highlight of our wonderful week touring in Portugal. Great food, plenty of wine, amazing conversation - wow what an evening. Highly recommended!"

"10/10! Wir waren zusammen mit unseren amerikanischen Freunden bei Isabel zu Besuch und es war wunderbar. Nach der herzlichen Begrüßung setzten wir uns an den gedeckten Tisch und waren mit Isabel sofort in interessante Gespräche vertieft. Sie hat eine wunderbare Energie, ist eine perfekte Gastgeberin und neben herrlichem Essen haben wir von ihr viel über Portugal , portugiesische Weine und Essen gelernt. Beim Abschied haben wir uns von einer Freundin verabschiedet. Vielen Dank, Isabel! Wir kommen wieder!"
