Louro & Sal

Louro & Sal, a gay-owned restaurant in Príncipe Real, does Portuguese food that feels both classic and current. This place brings together old and new cooking, with a menu that's clearly been thought through, plus a wine list to match. It's the kind of spot where LGBTQ+ diners will feel comfortable, whether you're after a casual meal with friends or something a little more intimate. Lisbon’s become a bigger draw for gay travelers lately, and you see it in the restaurants. Plenty of places around the city now actively welcome LGBTQ+ guests, and Louro & Sal is one of them. The service here is genuinely friendly, making the whole thing feel relaxed, not rushed or stuck-up like some fancier spots. If you're in Lisbon and want to try local food in a genuinely welcoming space, put this on your list. For hours and reservations, check their website, www.louroesal.com. You'll find it at Rua da Atalaia 55.
