Restaurante Zafra

Submerso

12 PM - 7 PM

Daily

Set within Oceanário de Lisboa, overlooking the Tagus river, Submerso takes diners on a journey through Portuguese cuisine and its centuries-old connections with the world – the flavours the Portuguese carried across the seas, and those other cultures brought back to Portuguese tables in return. 

The result is a menu that revives authentic dishes, presenting many of them in a petisco-style format. Guests are invited to explore and share a variety of flavours within a single meal.

The philosophy is distinctly homemade. Much of the preparation takes place in the restaurant itself, using fresh, seasonal ingredients sourced from Portugal.

With around 70 indoor seats and a counter accommodating 12 guests, Submerso was designed to welcome Oceanário de Lisboa visitors, many of whom come from abroad. At the same time, it aims to attract families, couples and small groups living or working in the Parque das Nações area.
