    Just fabulous food and our waiter, John, was amiable, knowledgeable and wonderful guide to take us through the menu. And what a menu!! Everything we had was perfect and FINALLY a dish of octopus that didn't taste like you were chewing on rubber bands. Tender and delicious. The food was so good that we made reservations for the next evening as we didn't want to take the chance on anything lesser. Go there and eat; you won't be disappointed.

    One of the employees maybe should do something else different than atend to customers. We arrived earlier and he treated us like "not welcome! ... you´re table isn´t ready". We went to a walk to spend time and when we came back, the same guy was still ... not so friendly. The others were nice, but that one made our experience not so good. The food is very good.

    Fabulous creative food, extremely attentive wait staff handled a packed house like the pros they were. It’s small place; book in advance.

    The food is pretentious, overpriced, and not particularly good. There are plenty of great restaurants in Lisbon. The fact that there was not one Portuguese person in this restaurant tells you something..it is called a tourist trap.

    My wife and I ate at this restaurant on our second night in Lisbon. We started with bread, garlic butter and olives, which was very good. For entrees, my wife had the Prawn Risotto and I had the Pork Jarret. Both entrees were excellent. The Pork Jarret is more like a shank and the meat was cook perfectly and just fell off the bone. The Risotto was cook perfectly as well. Service was very good as well. Great wine list selection. One note, this restaurant was packed, so I would recommend making a reservation.

    Fantastic food from the starters to the dessert! Lovely and attentive wait staff too. Even directed us (literally walked us) up the road to show us where the football Eurostch was played. So kind! Would be back on a heartbeat.

    This gem of a restaurant is tucked behind a construction fence (a smidge difficult to find). It is small. We would not have expected this quality of a restaurant to be found in such an unsuspecting place. We were a large party of 5. Don’t try to eat here if you do not have a reservation. The restaurant was packed and they were constantly turning away people. The fish (tuna and sea bream), risotto and pork were exceptional. We would dine here again as well as recommend. Make a reservation!

    I had a lot of anticipation to taste the octupus dish, however I was disappointed: the octopus was without taste, a bit overcooked/rubbery and it did not taste like fresh octopus. It takes more like it was defrost and prepared. The vegetables were very oily and without taste at all.. Also the starter (shrimps) was soooo salty we had to return the dish… The staff and the service was great and friendly, but the kitchen needs a chef with note passion..

    With the current construction, the restaurant is hidden a little bit. The octopus dish was amazing. For dessert we really enjoyed the pastry dish with berries.

    Our waitress, Clau, was wonderful; each dish of food we ate was expertly prepared; we had some of the best fish dishes we've eaten in Portugal (shrimps, octopus salad, cod, tuna and sea bass); amazing chocolate lava cake with ice cream (it was shared among three of us and was gone in a second). We had an amazing evening. It's a very intimate restaurant with a nice wine selection. You have to be "buzzed" in, so making reservations is strongly suggested.

    Food was really nice. Service not so good, it started a bit oppressive with having to ring the bell and then a not very welcoming demeanour (especially as obviously I had a reservation) They took a long time to serve us, were quite short and not friendly and missed several items off the order (eg I never got my fries, had to ask several times for the wine) So it was not a very nice feeling overall

    A wonderful meal from start to finish. The service was attentive, but not overly so. The restaurant was small but the ambiance was wonderful. The food was spectacular. If I lived in Lisbon I would eat there once a week.

    The food was of a high standard, the place was very nice and cozy. Waiters Wiki and Ewerton very polite and professional. They can recommend dishes and good wine. It is necessary to book a table in advance, but this only reflects well on the restaurant. I highly recommend!!

    This restaurant is slightly off the beaten track but well worth the effort to get there. So popular we couldn’t get a table before 9pm on a Monday evening! Delicious fish mains and starters, outstanding house wine, friendly service, Probably the best dinner we had during two and a half weeks in Portugal.
