    3.5/10

    Very friendly middle-aged couple. We had two full doses of limpets that just smelled bad and fishy. The othe four dishes were simply bad food. I spent a month in the Azores and had experience with their food. This place left a real bad taste. Would not recommend this place. And they said they had problem with their card machine and we had to withdraw money. GO THERE IF YOU LIKE BAD FOOD.

    To be honest, initially we did not know what we was walking into as we approached the restaurant, but once there from the manager to the waiting staff to the lovely kitchen staff it was absolutely fantastic. The food there, is your authentic Portuguese home cooked meal, and the manager was lovely enough to explain the history of the food and dishes. The passion definitely resonates and is reflected into the meals. The fish soup is a definite must try. Ingredients were fresh and taken care of to make meals with a warm family feel rather that just another typical restaurant. Highly recommend this gem of a place.

    We went on Thursday and that is when the restaurant serves the prix fixe menu with fixed dishes. Food was excellent but we had a problem of being full and we could not eat any more when the desert was served. If you are going there, please bring a big appetite and skip the bread since you will not be hungry afterwards.

    Thanks to the kind hosts at Espaço Açores for a wonderful dinner. Kindly they helped us through the menu in English and helped us with the right servings for our party. The food is wonderful, the hosts are incredibly passionate and knowledgeable about the food, their origins and the process. Basically anything you could hope to know they can tell you with grace and good humor. Highly recommended - give them a visit. You won't be disappointed.

    Alfredo was very friendly and explained about Azores food and their specialties to us. He also told us about Pico island where he is from and which islands to visit for first time visitors! It was a good cultural experience. My fish soup was very good !

    Good food based upon the gastronomy of Azores. Waiter is friendly and helpful. Nice view upon the Tagus but very difficult to find a parking slot nearby (parking closes at night). Quality vs price rather expensive without the Fork's discount.

    If you would like to have a fun meal with all kinds of food from Açores island, this is the place. The food is all exotic but expect to be very salty and rich. Just set the right expectation and u will be fine.

    A Nice restaurant, the owner of the restaurant is very friendly and gave us a very detailed introduction of the dishes. The Food itself is very authentic but the sodium level is quite high for us. If you want to try all their signature dishes, try to go on Thursday night as they provide you a taste menu of all their signature dishes.

    The food is the real Azorean deal, it is just the best place in Lisbon for Azoreans when they are homesick. The owner, from Pico island, establishes a fun and honest conversation with the guests for a great time while there.

    Thursdays is buffet day, so you pretty much don’t have a choice “à la Carte”. The food was excellent but toooooo much for us to try all the available dishes that they were offering, Two people, with water, beer and two coffees it was about 46€, which is quite acceptable for what is offered…. taste trip of the islands of Açores…
