Everything was fantastic! From the delicious, well balanced, savory food... to the intimate, romantic, and traditional setting... this experience was our favorite experience from our time in Lisbon! The owner made the diner and Fado particularly wonderful due to his attention to our needs, personalization, and his participation in the evening's events. He made us feel so welcomed and cared for. It was as if we stepped into his own home! 10/10. Do not pass up the opportunity to dine at this establishment!!

Simply amazing! From the food to the service - everything was so delicious. Service was friendly, knowledgeable plus they knew English which was nice. When we go back to Lisbon, we will definitely make a point to go back.

+1Wonderful evening of fado! The food was delicious as well. My only complaint is that after we finished our meal, we were there for 2 more hours listening to the music and talking, and not once did someone offer us another glass of wine or even water. We did finally ask for water and got some but it just seemed like we were forgotten about.

The food was ok, I would say 7/10. The sea food was soaked in oil. But the atmosphere was 11-10, amaizing, romantic, the singers were great. I would still recommend it to my friends, and hope that the food would be better in the future.

The staff is very kind and friendly and the food is great! We ate cheese, garlic gambas, octopus and fish! The sweet rice was also great! The place is a bit narrow, but I think it’s typical of the neighborhood! I recommend it!

Wonderful evening of food and Fado music. Seemed to be very authentic, as most of the clientele were local and were familiar with the program. Place was packed, and the atmosphere, food and music were all top notch.

Our fado dinner was amazing!! Typical atmosfere, good food and a wonderful concert in three moments during the dinner. The service was great as well: despite sometimes it felt like they forgot our table, the waitress was kind and who I think were the owners incredibly attentive. I had a headache and they managed to provide me with a pill. Very correct price: 45€ for the menu and 15 for the fado show. Recommended!

It all made for a wonderful evening. I was visiting the city for the weekend with my mum and this was the first stop on our trip. The place, the welcome, the service, everyone is kind and attentive. We had a great dinner accompanied by several interpretations of fado by different artists. A great introduction to Portuguese culture. Thank you for all your attention.
