About this spot
Mar Ao Carmo in Mouraria serves fresh Atlantic seafood — grilled fish, octopus, clams in white wine. Portugal's coast means the catch was probably swimming this morning.
💡 Tips before you go
- Grilled fish (peixe grelhado) is always good — ask what's fresh today
- Arroz de marisco (seafood rice) is Portugal's paella — wet, rich, and for sharing
- Polvo à lagareiro (octopus with olive oil and potatoes) is essential
