very confy food and place

We sat outside at first but with a chill in the air we moved inside. Lovely patient and pleasant service from both Esperanca and Ayaz. One of us had steak and the other had bacalhau. Both were tasty and cooked well. We also had a lovely bottle of white Douro wine (Lello or Lella brand). All in all a very pleasant 2.5 hours. Thank you.

A venue with a lot of potential, but totally underrun. Almost 30min waiting for a cheese & presunto board. Olives from a supermarket jar. Patatas bravas that were not "bravas". Unpatient waitress.

+1I’ve been there before a couple of times. Unfortunately, service and food quality have been going downwards every time. Staff has been replaced with cheap and non-Portuguese speaking labour. Food was served literally burned. Moreover, I did notice they gave us a different menu/carta which prices didn’t match with prices listed here. Sad to see yet another restaurant in Lisbon loosing quality and yet increasing the prices.

Azyz was really helpful and understood our conditions, because one of us is vegetarian. We had a really great time with comfy food. I’ll definitely come back.

The waiters were very friendly and welcome. They let us choose a table and the views from the window were great. The portions could be a tiny bit bigger, especially the salad. We had a great experience and we were happy with the service.

The venue is 5 stars 🌟 food is amazing although portions are a little small so I would certainly recommend a starter. We had pica pau and covert to start the octopus and a teabags for the main dish. I have no complaints the experience was wonderful service amazing and food delicious and even if smaller portions fantastic value 😀

The architecture of the building that houses this restaurant is worth the visit in itself. The beams and wood ceilings, the bench type seating in private booths, not to mention the large stone sink and incredible views. The service was excellent and very accommodating. Unfortunately, we found the food to be relatively bland for our taste.

The food quality! The place itself, in a historical beautiful building with great views. The swift, friendly and impecable service. I would say a hidden gem in the old Lisbon.

All the staff members were kind and arrived early, but they made me wait comfortably inside. The food you recommended is really good, and I want to go there again

Our host Ayaz seemed to have kept an eye on the entire restaurant to ensure that all guests were enjoying their meals and feeling comfortable. One of the best restaurants in Lisbon😊😍

Stopped for a little snack of prawns and padron peppers. They were both absolutely delicious and the staff so kind and welcoming! We had a lovely time and will definitely go back! The location was also beautiful! Thank you!

Ambiance and staff is great. Prices are certainly adequate as well. Food was a mix bag. Pimentos de padrão and cheese tart (basque cheesecake) were great. Tortilla was very poor (cold and dry, overcooked probably). Main dishes were not bad but lacking seasoning. We will give another chance because we think they are close to being great, just improve the tortilla and add more seasoning to the dishes. I took entrecôte and my wife mushroom rice. I asked mine medium raw, and it was closer to raw (I did not mind as I can have it like what anyway). My wife’s was fresh and well cooked (not overcooked) but lacking flavor, she did not finish the dish. As you see we believe they can improve easily as they tick many very important points, however lacking in one of the most important for a restaurant. We will go back to check if the kitchen just had a bad day, as it can happen.

Very nice restaurant in a quiet place. The service was very professional and the value was good for the price. We think the starters are without interest, but the mains were good. The drinks, beers, were cheap and tasty. Overall good experience, we would come back happily !

Good service and delicious food. The amount of food could be more generous, the servings are smaller than the average in Portugal.

Probably the best food we had in Lisbon (though the bar wasn’t very high), great value too with the offer through TheFork. There was also flamenco performances in the courtyard which made for a nice show, nice setting
