Absolutely outstanding experience. This restaurant perfectly blends Portuguese roots with refined oriental influences, creating a fusion cuisine that is both creative and beautifully balanced. Every dish was thoughtfully presented, with bold yet harmonious flavors that feel sophisticated without being pretentious. The wine list is extensive and carefully curated, offering excellent Portuguese labels alongside international selections that pair wonderfully with the menu. The staff is knowledgeable and attentive, always ready to recommend the perfect match. The atmosphere strikes a rare balance: elegant yet relaxed, stylish but welcoming. You can enjoy a special evening without feeling overly formal. A place where tradition meets innovation with taste and confidence. Highly recommended for anyone looking for something truly distinctive.

A fairly newer restaurant in Lisbon with a great feel that we had to try. What was unexpected was how truly well made the offers were and how well they'll hold up amongst the great food of Lisbon. This one is worth the visit.

Everything perfect. The service was really nice, all the employees were top notch, welcoming and making relevant suggestions. We had 2 really good Cocktails. The food was very very well cooked. Only note for improvement would be the bread basket: even though it was good, for this price point / type of restaurant we expected maybe the bread to be smoother or hot/crispy like I’ve seen elsewhere. It was the less memorable thing from all the experience (Still super good)
Fernando • Owner

We are delighted to know that you had such a positive experience and that you appreciated the service, the attention from our team, the cocktails, and the quality of the food.

We also truly appreciate your constructive feedback regarding the bread basket. Your observation is very valuable, and we will share it with our team as we continuously look for ways to refine every detail and ensure that each element of the experience matches the level we aim to offer. It was a pleasure having you with us, and we hope to welcome you back again soon for another memorable evening.

The food is very good, it's Portuguese influenced with a fusion of other flavors. The carpacio was perfect, served with a generous portion of arugula and the sauteed mushooms were perfectly done. Ambience is comfortable and service very helpful.

Tasty food, maybe because of the day the service was a little disorganized. The prices were a little higher than they should have been.

A new restaurant with great potential to be even greater than it already is. Food good(vegan option could be more punchy), nice ambience, good overall service. We were the first to arrive in the restaurant and the reception was just excellent. The space is very cozy and has great light placements. Good for a date or a family dinner. We took the meat with mashed potatoes, which was really nice (meet à point , with no possibility to choose). Very good. For the mushroom risotto, the taste of mushrooms only comes when you actually eat the mushroom, which can be questionable. But in general , it was good but could have more punch to it. The space is relatively big, and for some moments we felt forgotten waiting and trying to reach someone from the staff to order something. Would recommend if searching for a cozy/romantic place.
Fernando • Owner
Thank you very much for taking the time to share such detailed feedback. We are pleased to know that you enjoyed the ambience, the coziness of the space, and the warm welcome upon your arrival. It is also gratifying to hear that the meat dish met your expectations and that you would recommend us as a cozy and romantic place. We truly appreciate your constructive remarks regarding the vegan option, the mushroom risotto, and the moments when the service felt less attentive. Your observations are extremely valuable and have been shared with both our kitchen and service teams, as they help us refine flavors, improve balance in our dishes, and ensure a more consistent level of attention throughout the dining experience. Thank you once again for your recommendation and for recognizing our potential. We look forward to welcoming you back and providing an even more polished and memorable experience on your next visit.

Great restaurant, well presented and modern decoration. The staff is absolutely wonderful and very attentive. The food was delicious, full of flavour, you can tell they care about all the details and the chefs put all the effort and creativity into it. The octopus with risotto was delightful. Definitely I will come back soon.
