The food was very good. The restaurant was not crowded. The location near the town center was also very convenient. The waiters were polite and friendly.

Service was slow. Young waiter had zero personality and slapped the convert on table. This was not listed on menu so therefore diners have no idea of cost. Wine list presented then when we ordered we were told it was out of date. One main course was not as described on menu and both were mediocre at best. There was no ambience and altogether a disappointing experience.

The restaurant is located near the river and offers a good variety of food. However the setup/mise en place of the restaurant feels very tourist-oriented, and the printed menus really need to be replaced — they’re falling apart.

Good job for the discount unless it probably wouldn’t be worth it as other restaurants would be much better value for money.

A good selection of starter so, small plates and main courses . Tuna Tartar, Anchovy bruschetta delicious. Lobster Linguine and Balcalau recommended. A small hiccup with our main courses but sorted out by very friendly staff.

Paella and Arroz were very delicious. The noise of the carts that brought the dishes were very noisy. We were the only people in the restaurant, and the service was slow. We are very familiar with Portuguese restaurant speeds, so we're surprised.

Food was excellent ‘ only sad part was the desert ‘ I had a chocolate brownie with cream nothing wrong with the brownie at all it was the fact that’s all their was on offer this was Christmas night and there was only a few other people in the restaurant seems like first come first served . Shame the service was good and as I say would still recommend the place . I spent 50 euros on the 3 course meal including 1 bottle of sparkling water and 2 cappuccino’s no alcohol ‘ so marks out of 10 is 8 as I say would still recommend the restaurant but to get 10 out of 10 they need to sort the desserts out .

Three of us ordered the Risotto.... two of us were really disappointed, the third person was said it was "just okay". In each case, there were only about 3 small pieces of fish, the risotto was watery, unseasoned, quite tasteless and although there was beetroot foam on the menu, it was not on the plate. I suspect that ordinary rice was used. However, the other meals were outstanding.

We have dined at this restaurant several times and the food and service are always very good. Wadi, the manager ensures that all his guests are well looked after. This time we had the Fish & Chips and the Lobster Tagliatelle. The burger, the Lobster Paella and the salads are also very good.
