This was the first restaurant in Lisbon to receive a Michelin star and subsequently set the city's culinary bar to the highest level. Eleven has since enjoyed an almost flawless history as one of Lisbon's top gourmet hotspots, although competition at this standard is now fierce. The restaurant enjoys an elevated position at the top of the city's Parque Eduardo VII and affords diners sweeping views of the Portuguese capital. Directing the kitchen is acclaimed German chef Joachim Koerper, who has worked in some of Europe's most celebrated Michelin-starred restaurants. Koerper's great love is southern European gastronomy and his tasting menus here celebrate the fresh, subtle flavors of Portugal, Spain and Italy. A Grand Chef Relais & Chateaux, Koerper describes his cuisine as "luminous and elegant" and rooted in traditions of Mediterranean cooking. Complementing the food is an impressive wine list, with some of Portugal's finest labels sharing the cellar with a noted international selection.
