This place is amazing. ive been going to this restaurant for many years. They have gone upmarket with the furniture. The food hasnt changed, its still amazing. This restaurant is off the beaten track, but its our go to, whenever we are in Portugal. We always visit here. The prices have increased, but so totally worth it.

6/10Two of us ordered Picanha, and two ordered pork and clams. the Picanha was so tough it was almost impossible to eat. The pork was very dry and also tough to chew. the food experience was very bad...we have been there several times before and haven't had any problems. we tried to talk with the chef to explain as I am sure they don't willingly want to serve such poor quality meat to other customers, but they wouldn't let us communicate. in fairness, they didn't charge us for the bad meals which is much appreciated. I am surprised that they don't have better quality control, as all the meat was like leather and it is something they could easily check in the kitchen.

9/10This is a very traditional Portuguese restaurant- no frills. Great food, reasonably priced. But waiters not very friendly!

9.5/10They seem to have a lot of new staff that were not as efficient as would be our usual expectation from previous visits. But they came through in the end and the food was excellent.

4/10We were at a Family dinner and frequently go to this restaurant even in winter (low season). Food was good but service it was really bad. Employee throw the wine into the glass, some wine went through the glass and the table without cleaning, not even apologize!! they provide meet knifes and assume they should be used for starters, main meal, either if it is meat or fish. Nothing like this is acceptable in a restaurant with those average prices 25€ main meal. 32€/ person in average Unfortunately will not comeback again or recommend this place to friends.

7.5/10We ve been going to this restaurant for years now. The food never disappoints but the service got so bad. There is no maitre d’. No one takes an interest in looking after the table. No trained wine waiter. New wine poured without being offered to be tasted. Also, the service is very slow
