    The food is amazing and service is good, but the music was so loud that was almost impossible to listen the other people.

    Beautiful food in a classical, laid back ambiance and very friendly service. We tried the octopus and the squid, which were both incredibly soft and cooked with amazing flavors. The bread here is incredible (natural sourdough). And the desserts are original and amazing in their simplicity. All in all, a great experience. Will return and do recommend!

    This is just a comment for my tastes, but the rib eye was a delicious cut of meat but it was ruined by far too much salt. The side salad that was just lettuce and onion was drowned in dressing making both dishes difficult to eat.

    Speciality Restaurant with creative Portuguese cuisines. Fish was over salted but the meat was perfectly cooked and tasted as good as it can with local lamb chops.

    Food was outstanding, service could be better and more attentive. Unfortunately it’s not pet friendly but they made an exception since my dog is very small and it was in a bag

    The host setting expectations about the guests needing to leave for the 2nd seating needs better English or think about his approach. Everything else was wonderful.

    For starters, the bread is some of the best I’ve had in Portugal. The squid poached in sheep’s butter was also sublime and we enjoyed sharing the huge and delicious poached peaches with pistachio ice cream and a zabaglione type cream. Yum. The atmosphere is small bistro, and tables are cramped. The service was excellent.

    Service hurried and uninformed. Food very good but not outstanding. We were not advised of all the offerings that we saw other patrons receiving, eg clams and sardines. The only seafood appetizer we were offered was cod cakes. Wanting seafood, this was disappointing.

    Very little atmosphere. TV screen with football on?! Harsh lighting. Anchovy starter for sharing was one tiny fillet from a tin.... Fish option was smothered in sauce and very bony. Other vegetables were heavily salted and all was luke warm. However, waiter was delightful and attentive.

    We had the best lunch at Canalha. The place is comfortable and casual. The service friendly. The food simple, good quality ingredients, cooked to perfection, generous servings and good value. I wish there were more places like this.

    Food: excellent simplicity with extraordinary produce. Simple and delicious food is the most difficult to execute, but here they excel. The bar seats are not too comfortable, stools without back rest, but who cares, you go there for the food, and definitely you should.
