    Love O Fática but unfortunately they didn't do a great job on valentine's day. They could have less starters, and cassava soup and dadinhos de tapioca were to filling. The risotto was overcooked and tenderloin cold. Maybe reducing the amount of wine served to improve their quality would also be good. They put way too many tables and something that should a romantic moment was a bit chaotic. It was not a good experience and I hope they work in improvements because I've eaten there before and I know they can do a great job.

    The place is fairly small, offering little space between tables and not optimal chairs. As the light was pretty minimal we had to read the menu with our phone lights on. The environment is quiet and te service very attentive. We picked four different Brazilian dishes and we really enjoyed our food, coming in generous portions.

    We had a great time at this restaurant. The welcoming from Marília since the welcoming to the “ see you later” she has been amazing available to us. The food was great, the starters and the main dishes no only have an amazing look and also was also tasteful. I can recommend this restaurant. 10 out of 10

    This was our second time visiting this restaurant. Last time was more flavourful unfortunately. On weekends they have live music. Cocktails are good and inexpensive. The service is friendly and attentive.

    Really loved this place, we picked here as my brazilian partner was missing some of the food from back home and it didn't disappoint. Really lovely place.

    We loved the Brazilian food - and drinks! - at this little restaurant. It was one of the highlights of our trip to Portugal. The service was super friendly and the guitar player/singer was very chill. We were very pleased to have found this spot and would love to visit again.

    Great place. Servers suggested great dishes. Guitarist softly playing and singing old Brazilian bossa nova classics. We were a loud noisy group but no one seemed to mind. Families and couples there too. Definitely worth a visit.

    We had originally booked for O Fatico Brazillian restaurant at the top of the street. Went to the newly opened sister restaurant down the street in error. Its a steakhouse. The meal was superb. Best steak I've ever eaten. Great wine pairing. Highly Recommended.

    Hello Anne! Thank you very much for your review. We are very glad that you enjoy our food, also we are wondering what went wrong during the service to help us and improve it and give the better service. Thank you and see you next time.

    A small, friendly, lovely Brazilian restaurant. The menu ranges invitingly from Bahia through Minas Gerais to Rio. My wife had bobó de camarão, I had feijão tropeiro. Both dishes were excellent. I highly recommend O Fática.

    Cozy atmosphere, good music, and nice experience overall. Good selection of drinks and the food was flavourful. Both an omnivore and vegetarian/vegan can be satisfied. Thank you!

    Really laid back restaurant. Only a dozen tables, but place was full when we left. My only criticism was the lack of light, the menus were on brown paper and some people were reading them with their phone torch. Food was excellent. Three course meal and jug of sangria came in at under 45 euros pp.

    We absolutely LOOOVE this place. Have been here 4 times now and have taken three different group of people here. Everyone we bring loves it just as much we do. The food is absolutely phenomenal, we haven’t had a single dish here that’s not a 10. Absolutely fantastic cocktails. And lastly, they nail the atmosphere. It’s something I don’t usually care for much from a restaurant (I’m usually just about the good) but this place does it so well that you can’t not mention it. The live music, the setting, everything is really nice but in an unpretentious way. It’s a small place so large groups may not be well suited but it is the perfect restaurant for dates and imitante dinners parties. They’ll definitely be seeing us again!

    Great find! Amazing Brazilian snacks and cocktails. Make sure to ask for a Amazon Sour, one of their speciality cocktail. Try also the dadinho de tapioca.

    We’ve always loved Brazilian cuisine and this restaurant didn’t disappoint. All the dishes were delicious and the service was efficient and friendly. They also made one of the best gin and tonics I’ve ever had. We will definitely be going back.
