    One of the staff was fantastic, but a waitress was a bit rude when we complained about the delay in serving our drinks. Otherwise, everything was very good.

    My wife and I were absolutely shocked with how good and authentic the food was. It was a delightfully simple menu in both portugese and english. We had the Crispy Chicken Rice and Oven Roasted Veal and both were so good. Our server recommended a Red from Douro which was so good we had a second glass (and at 6 Euro a glass why not!). We were not even going to have dessert but you know what happens when you just look at the dessert menu ! Locals and travel groups stop here which I think is a great sign and they also understand being Celiac and can help guide you through the menu. I am Celiac myself and did not react to anything I ate but I do not believe they have a seperate kitchen area for severe Celiac sufferers. Highly recommended !!

    The short pasta with fish in a sea sauce with shrimp was amazing, so tasty. Wish I had the recipe!

    Service was very fast but friendly. We ate traditional Portuguese dishes which were good. But the entree of roasted cod with potatoes, garlic, vegetables seemed to be on the salty side.

    The food was good but not extra ordinary (The octopus was tender but I prefer when the outside is more grilled. Nice Vino Verde. The service was OK, but despite the restaurant was almost empty, I have been placed at the tabke closest to the kitchen, so during all the meal I heard the noise from the plunge :-( This is the reason for the low "ambiance" score.

    This was my second visit. The first one I really enjoyed the service, but this time I didn’t like it one bit: too long to take the orders, then too much time waiting for the food. Our table was in a very awkward position that led to constant bumping from the workers serving the tables around ours.

    The service was really exceptional. I am sad I don't know the name of our waiter but he was extremely professional, careful, nice, fast. I rarely saw this level of service so thank you if you read this message! But also the food was very good, the environment very nice and for a price quite reasonable for the area.

    The starters were really lovely, as was the wine & service. The issue was with the mains, We ordered Turkey & Duck rice as a sharing meal, it was really dry. Our friends ordered the pork sharing dish which was really salty.

    Lovely restaurant that came highly recommended by our tour guide. We started with Camarão à Guilho (shrimp was very large), Lombinhos com Migas de Espargos (pork loin) and Massada de Peixe com Camarão (fish pasta stew). Everything was incredible and we could've easily shared one entree as the portions were very big. Delicious and would definitely visit again.

    Some food was excellent and some was bland. We had to ask for my grandmothers juice 3 times and got it when the meal was over. Good option if you are local to it.

    I went with my wife for a light dinner. We had one the most amazing vegetable soups. As a main we went for a fish, my wife took bacalao and I went for Robalo, they were prepared to perfection. The potatoes could have been roasted a bit more, but in general the experience was great. I didnt go for deserts unfortunately although they seemed very tasty.

    Great discovery near Parque das Nações's metro station. Calm restaurant, reactive waiter, and perfect cuisine. Not too expensive, either. 100% recommend

    We both had sea bass which was simply delicious served with a beautiful salad & lovely freshly prepared home cooked chips. The sea bass were big so we shared the biscuit cake, which was homemade and very enjoyable. The restaurant has a lovely ambience & the staff very friendly, attentive & professional. We had a lovely Red Wine Donna Maria which was reasonably priced. We would certainly recommend & hope to return again

    We went two nights in a row to this place to tuck in and enjoy some of the best fish dishes we've had in this area. The sea bass the first night was amazing, the cod the second night competed. We will be back when we are in Lisbon again. Easy, beautiful family dinner. :)
