10/10Warm welcome, was asked if we would like to sit inside or out. We shared the seafood rice which was delicious and full of shellfish.

9.5/10Lunch time it was very quiet but also a very hot day. as we had our dog we sat out on the terrace. food and service was excellent. this is a yum redemption restaurant note you don't get prices in special board. I sugest stick to main menu to avoid any confusion.

9.5/10The food was pretty good and so was the service. The price however, was a bit on the expensive side.

2/10booked table for 10pm. arrived at 9.55pm to be told by rude waitress that the kitchen is closed. i explained that I booked the table through The Fork but that didn't help. I really don't recommend this place.

9.5/10A small restaurant slightly off the beaten track which is a shame as we had a lovely meal there but hardly anyone else there, they need to have their own web site. Good service, nice outdoor seating.

8.5/10We went to this restaurant for a light lunch. We both ordered omelettes, which were served with chips. The food was very tasty and we enjoyed dining outdoors in the pedestrianised street.

10/10The discount of 50% was applied without any problems. The service was very good: they were kind and quick. They also offered us (we were 4 people) two types of traditional Portuguese cake, both very good.
