    This is truly one great dining establishment. Very small place. No details missed. Kind service. Amazing food and ambiance. Sad that I don’t live In Lisbon to dine again.

    The food was outstanding. I loved the fact that this restaurant is located off the beaten path. Very relaxed vibe. Reservations are needed to ensure you can dine there.

    Great spot with interesting wines, fantastic food and a cozy ambience! We ordered all of our dishes at the start and they arrived at the same time or very close together, so we felt a bit rushed. We will ask for a bit more spacing between each dish next time to better enjoy each one.

    Disappointing meal. Some of the dishes served were let down by them arriving lukewarm, rather than hot. Beef dish was too chewy to eat, making it an expensive bowl of mash.

    Gracious welcome and fabulous food drew us back a second evening! The limited menu offers ample variety of creatively conceived plates and tempts diners to try the unfamiliar. We enjoyed everything 😋😋

    The food was amazing in its rustic simplicity- flavorful reminding you of your moms authentic cooking. Paired with full body wine and a laid back atmosphere- thank you 😊

    Great experience. Reasonably priced for how great the food and service was. Tapas style and they brought out plates one at a time so it felt like a 4 course meal! Definitely recommend.

    We where staying locally and decided too try this restaurant as it was a 4 min walk. and what a gem ! Super tasty food, highlighting culinary delights of Portugal and presented as tapas sharing plates which worked well as a family with two children. Friendly staff, helpful lovely waiter and fast service. Go try, but book - its very popular.

    A modern twist on Portuguese food that doesn't compromise on the authenticity nor taste. Everything on the menu was delicious and prices were very reasonable. Service and food waiting times were impeccable as well.

    The restaurant is small and the vibe is really cozy. The service was great and the staff made you feel like home. They have a nice selection of wine, but keep in mind that the portions are quite small and the menu is not that diverse.

    We had a lovely time here and the food was outstanding. We shared plates, picking 4 items from the menu. Each was presented with care and every bit delicious. Since the menu changes, ask about the current menu and how it is made. I highly recommend going here.
