The interior of the restaurant is really cool with all the books, very atmospheric. The food was surprisingly tasty. The service was attentively present in the background.

The ambiance was very nice. Sadly the service did not match the four stars of the restaurant. Neither did the food. Some of the personnel (we had several people serving us) were not very welcoming and attentive as one should expect in such a place; and we had to ask for the desert a couple of times before we got it. The fish was fine and juicy but the rice they served to it was boring and was tasting of nothing except from cilantro. No vegetables were served to it. The cheeses we got to begin with, were good but not local (for the most). The wine was very good. The price - service - food relationship did not entirely match. We got better service, better food to better prices elsewhere.

What a delight to dine in a room full of books! We both had vegetarian dishes, and they were excellent. The feijoada was quite tasty, and could easily have fed two people. The servers were wonderfully kind and made us feel welcome. Would definitely recommend.

This was somewhat disappointing. While the atmosphere was pleasant and the mushroom tart appetizers were delicious, the cod fish and filet mignon were rather average with the fish being too salty and the steak being a bit overcooked. Then during dinner one of the servers was spraying cleaner on tables nearby which filled the air with a very unpleasant odor. Also the limited Wines By The Glass is odd in portugal.

A great gem in an amazing setting, with 80.000 books, waiting for your food would never get boring but it came to fast anyway. The food was 5-star and I would go back anytime. I would also laud the restaurant for its great music mix which made the experience even more fun. The staff was very friendly too.
