FOGO is the live-fire cooking restaurant by acclaimed chef Alexandre Silva, where everything is prepared over open flames in true Portuguese tradition. Located in Lisbon's vibrant Avenidas Novas district, this establishment represents Silva's passionate exploration of fire as a culinary medium, showcasing Portuguese products through traditional techniques with a contemporary approach.

The restaurant's concept centers around the primal art of cooking with fire, where chef Silva and his team masterfully handle flames to create dishes that celebrate Portugal's rich culinary heritage. The menu draws inspiration from the country's roots, featuring carefully selected Portuguese ingredients transformed through time-honored grilling and roasting methods that have been refined with modern precision.

FOGO offers an unpretentious yet sophisticated dining experience, with both à la carte options and tasting menus that highlight the chef's expertise in fire-based cooking. The restaurant's informal atmosphere allows diners to witness the theatrical spectacle of live-fire preparation while enjoying exceptional food and carefully curated drinks.

As part of Alexandre Silva's culinary empire alongside his Michelin-starred restaurant LOCO, FOGO demonstrates the chef's versatility and deep understanding of Portuguese gastronomy, making it a must-visit destination for those seeking authentic flavors elevated through masterful technique.
