Where to Eat Near Santa Catarina Viewpoint (Adamastor) in Bica
Looking for where to eat near Santa Catarina viewpoint once the sun goes down? Every clear evening the Miradouro de Santa Catarina, known to locals as Adamastor, fills with people watching the sunset over the Tagus. When the light fades and the crowd gets hungry, Wishbone is a three minute walk downhill, frying fresh Japanese karaage in the heart of Bica.
The viewpoint has the view. We have the food that comes after it. Here is how to pair the two on a Lisbon evening.
Where to eat near Santa Catarina viewpoint
The Miradouro de Santa Catarina sits at the top of Bica, a short walk from Rua da Boavista. It is one of the most loved sunset spots in Lisbon, busy with locals, buskers, and travelers most evenings.
What it does not have is a proper kitchen. Once the sun is down and you want real food, you head back down into Bica. That is exactly where we are, at Rua da Boavista 14, two minutes from Cais do Sodré.
Karaage, three minutes from Adamastor
Karaage is Japanese fried chicken, marinated overnight and fried light and crisp to order. It handles the short walk from our kitchen well, whether you eat in with us or carry it back up to the viewpoint for a second round.
Go for the signature karaage sandwich, a box of fried chicken pieces to share, or the karaage chicken bowl over sushi rice. You can browse everything on our karaage menu before you arrive, so you know what to order.
Make it a full Bica evening
Santa Catarina is the start of a good night in this part of Lisbon, not the end of it. After the viewpoint and a plate of karaage, Pink Street and the bars of Cais do Sodre are only minutes away.
We stay open late, so we fit either side of your night. If you are out past midnight, read more about late-night food in Cais do Sodré and Bica before you head out.

We are open Tuesday to Saturday until midnight, and Monday evenings from 5 PM. Walk in, no booking needed.
