Great food, great service, interior design could be better

Nice space and friendly service. Food was not great. Ordered a cheese appetizer and received a little blob of melted cheese in a tiny fry pan - no bread, no crackers, just the little blob of cheese. Main dishes weren’t great either. Ordered the flaked cod but the dish that was delivered to our table was mostly cabbage, with a few tiny pieces of fish. The mushroom risotto was marginally better, but still not great. Did not stick around for dessert.

Great food, service slightly disappointing as there seemed to be one waitress for 8 or 9 tables which meant a long wait to place order. Otherwise excellent food and service when it arrived was good.

We had a great evening in the cantinho do avillez. The food was super delicious, the waiters very accommodating and friendly. There is nothing to complain about. We had a fantastic dinner. Highly recommended.

Overall, we liked the food, it was very well prepared and also nicely presented: one feels that there is a chef that controls his stuff very well. We had tuna and octopus tartar to start, then baked bacalhau and other fish for main courses, all tasty and perfectly cooked. The wine was very good. The downside was, that the small room was too crowed, including a group of 10 men on a long table. We basically were "in touch" with people from different sides. In addition, although the service people tried hard, but most likely did not pass a real education in this business: nobody showed the wine before opening (which failed the first time). In addition, we arrived, 15 minutes after we had the first course, and felt 10 minutes after the first, the main course. so after 1 hour we would have been ready to leave? This does not reflect the expected level of a restaurant from such a well-known name in Lisbon. And overall the food is not cheap, so one can expect also a better service.

Our meals were delicious! We had cod and croaker with wine from Douro. Our server was great! The whole team actually. They even made my husband a martini! (Often hard to get in Europe) We came here because a friend recommended it and it did not disappoint!
