Salta – A journey of flavors
between Asia and Central America

Salta is a refined yet relaxed restaurant that defies boundaries, combining Asian and Central American cuisine into a vibrant, multicultural experience. Founded by four friends with international backgrounds, it reflects the cultural diversity of its creators.

The name “Salta” is inspired by “Saltapatrás”, a historical term linked to the crossing between Asian settlers and natives of Central America. This fusion of cultures is present in every detail of the restaurant.

tomaz salema reis

Our chef and partner, trained at the prestigious Le Cordon Bleu, has extensive experience in the area. He worked at the renowned Asian restaurant Mr. Wong, led by Dan Hong, in Australia. After living in Sydney for nine years, he returned to Portugal in 2019 to join the team at Vila Joya, in the Algarve – the first restaurant in the country to win a Michelin star, and which currently holds two. This was followed by experience as executive sous-chef at Boa-Bao, in Lisbon.

Four years ago, Tomaz took over the leadership of Salta, where he has complete creative freedom to develop all of the restaurant’s dishes.

/ What they say about Salta

Super creative tasting menu with an explosion of flavors. Even better when the cocktail pairing recommended by the Bartender. More than recommended for all lovers of good cuisine.

We had dinner at Salta and chose the Pork Experience menu. It was a delicious experience! Flavors, colors, aromas and textures very well combined and in perfect harmony. The service is exceptional. For each dish, an explanation of the ingredients and preparation. As for drinks, the drinks chosen were very well prepared and super balanced. We highly recommend it! It was a super dinner!

Incredible experience! Delicious dishes, wonderful tasting and impeccable service. Super tip for anyone coming to Lisbon 😉

Worth the visit! Modern and inviting atmosphere, trained and attentive staff. We ordered a tasting menu for 2 people. With each dish, a surprise, one more appetizing than the other! They are beautiful, you can see the care taken in their preparation and presentation. The good part: explosion of flavors!! Mainly the dessert, a mango mousse, with some leaves, which I don’t remember the name of, incredibly tasty, the apex! The mix is really very good. Very well served tasting menu!
