Nove means nine. It is the number on the green door at Rua dos Remédios, a steep cobbled lane in Alfama where the tram bells carry up between tiled façades.

Inside there is one small room with thirty-eight seats and about ten wooden tables. That is all of it, which is why booking matters.

Every afternoon, before service, the pasta is rolled by hand on a wooden board with a long pin: flour, eggs, nothing else. It is cooked that night and not kept for tomorrow.

The kitchen is Italian in technique and Portuguese in produce. We serve dinner only, Tuesday to Saturday, with doors at 19:00. Closed Sunday and Monday.
