A Severa was inaugurated in 1955, by the couple Júlio and Maria José de Barros Evangelista and is the oldest Fado House in Lisbon. Run by the same family for four generations, it is an active part of Fado history and important for the promotion of traditional Portuguese culture.
Located in one of the most typical neighbourhoods of the city – Bairro Alto – A Severa is famous for the authenticity and quality of its food and for its good Fado.
In a cozy candle light atmosphere, you can enjoy a memorable evening to the sound of Fado and the taste of
