While the ambiance and service were nice, there are some notable issues with the menu. Firstly, the fried breaded enoki with homemade potato fries disappointed, as the fries appeared to be industrial and frozen, lacking the quality expected for the price of 18€ and closer to a street Kebab level. Additionally, the charcoal-grilled entrecôte with toasted garlic, priced at 28€, was served WITHOUT ANY accompanying sides, (what kind of restaurant serves a peace of meet with nothing to go with? Not even a sauce. The waitress suggested to take the previously mentioned entrances as a side, so 46€ which felt unreasonable.) The veal cheek was satisfactory, except for the meager and undercooked "couscous," which seemed more like a decoration than a substantial part of the dish. Naming it to semolina would be more appropriate and less insulting for the actual couscous dish originated from North Africa. Furthermore, the purée was way too dry. On a positive note, the gnocchi received high praise for their quality, very good dish.

The food was very good but they have a very limited menu. There were only 4 entrees to choose from.

The food was okay but nothing spectacular and not worth the price even with the discount. Service very slow. Overall average experience which is a shame as it’s a great setting.

First time I came to this restaurant, I was so impressed with the service. Second time around I wasn't so impressed. Firstly, the seating area we were put in seemed like the forgotten zone so service was extremely slow. No vibe/no people at the back where they put us. The waitresses did seem polite but I couldn't understand why the service was slow. Really sad with how different it was from my first experience.

This innovative newer restaurant has much going for it. It’s housed in a beautiful old building. The chef is clearly talented, producing a menu that is varied and mushroom forward. My objection is about the time it took to get the food to the table. The other issue is price…yes, too high to be a part of many locals rotation, which it will need to be if it survives.

We got seated in a dark corner, although the restaurant was not full at midday. We were three dining, but only got two food menus and one drink menu. Food was ok, nothing special, and they didn’t have the wine we ordered. The service was cold, indifferent, we only saw the server when we placed the order, when the food was brought, and when we paid. No eye contact, no checking on us if we needed anything else, no suggestions. Although we had a discount it was not applied to the bill, we had to tell the server. This is our second time at this restaurant and both times we were left absolutely unimpressed.

From start to finish we loved this restaurant. The restaurant is beautifully themed and the staff is very knowledgable and kind. The food was delicious! We shared a few appetizers that were amazing, the main courses as well and the desert was a sweet surprising ending. Also ordered the shitake mule cocktail that blew my mind! So good! Will definitely come back and recommend! Shout out to our server Ekta!

I booked a table three days before dinner and they put us to the room without windows. Asked to change table but waiters was trying to find any reason not to move us. First impression was spoiled. Generally, place looks good. Food was a bit bland for me and quite pricey. Music is too loud to my taste but generally it us not a problem. I dont think I ll come back.

This is a neeee high end restaurant in the neighbrood. It is out of range (priče wise) for the most local folks but occasionally you will hear Portuguese spoken here by guests and staff. Now, food: a lot of mushroom based dishes which is interesting concept and rare. Tasty meats and good dizes portions. Pricy for Lisbon but good quality.
