9.5/10It was good food and overall a good experience. Not extraordinary though, but then I got spoilt by Belcanto in Lisbon last month. Hence my expectations were higher. The wine list needs a few Coravin enabled selections of higher end Portuguese wines.

7/10If you know the traditional Portuguese cuisine very well, don’t expect you will find it here. Arca makes its own twist on every traditional Portuguese dish and asks a relatively high price. The twist itself doesn’t make it better than the original, I would say it makes it worse. The space is very very noisy and on top the music (rock music) coming out of the very poor quality ceiling speakers is loud and not suitable for a place trying to offer the upper level of the average restaurants. Apart from that the utensils look old and very worn out. As it is part of the hotel you see people in bathing suits going to the SPA passing the restaurant space. Overall I think it’s not matching expectations and more a disillusion in reality after looking at the pictures on the website and social media. The service of the waiters is splendid, that was the only outstanding aspect.

6.5/10The food was good but the service took a long time to take away plates after we had finished eating and to also bring us the cheque and get us our coat.
