A bit more
about the Madame
Madame Petisca arrived in Lisbon in May of 2015 with a very clear and well defined goal: to provide moments of flavor and sharing through the best tapas, wines and genuine Portuguese products!
The Madame Petisca Restaurant, Bar and Rooftop was born through the Shiadu brand, the entity responsible for the implementation of this project in a unique and distinct space. Similar to other projects, the values of Shiadu are present through the assurance of a good service.
Be it to have a drink at the end of the day, dinner amongst friends or just an intimate evening, the Madame Petisca is committed to offering the best Portuguese cuisine in the form of delicious tapas… come savor a menu that calls for sharing!
THE Madame’s Residence
On her arrival in Lisbon, Madame looked for a place to gather what is the best and most characteristic in the city: an indescribable light all year long, the embrace of the Tagus River, an unforgettable view, the coziness of a typical neighborhood and of course, at the end of the day, an impeccable sunset!
It was precisely next to the Sightseeing Point of Santa Catarina, number 17 in Santa Catarina Street, that Madame Petisca found everything she was looking for. After all, what location would be more indicated for a Madame other than an antique French perfume factory?
This place with history in the heart of Lisbon is just a distance from a trip on the famous 28 tram or on the Bica funicular, pearls of our city! Be sure to visit this space, where the view is guaranteed as well as the comfort and the good taste, characteristic of any Madame’s residence!
