    A lovely restaurant with great tasting food. We visited on a Wednesday night so it wasn't at it's best. I would rate it higher but the we found the portion size to be too small and I was served pork ribs when I ordered the entrecote. I'm not sure if that is what they think entrecote is - or if they believe I don't know what entrecote is. (although I can see a picture that looks very much like entrecote). It's a shame because the roux was very tasty.

    The staff was super polite as usual and the food remains delicious and well prepared. The restaurant I always recommend to friends who come the Coimbra for the first time as the atmosphere is very special.

    Excellent attention. Food was really good and not expensive taking in account the quality. Next time I'll taste the "Experiências": a complete meal selection matching regions/topics. I recommend this restaurant.

    5.5/10

    The 4 small cubes of cod lacked any salt. Very meagre dose. I thought it to be fresh cod instead of dried cod. The puré was watercressed and the dose was meagre as well. The bill was exaggerated considering the doses. The cabbage was quite good. Quite an unimpressive first experience, I do not plan on returning.

    Not a normal busy evening but we were made to feel very welcome. We were a family of five and we followed the Chefs advices for dinner. All very tasteful and with the most personal service you could wish.

    Great service, very good food and a fair price. The only slight "negative" comment, was that the octopus (Polvo a Lagareiro) was super good, but unfortunately a bit burned. But all in all, totally recommended for good food, service and a fair price.
