    Location food and ambience was awesome but when you sit down at the table, there is an spread of olives and bread and then they bring you cheese and butter for the bread then they proceeded to charge you €10 for the “starter dish”. Still an overall inexpensive meal and it was all delicious.

    I recommend going one day and ordering only “Petiscos” to share. We did that and it was amazing. Always have a bread basket to go with. Everything that has seafood is great (we don’t know the others because we only did order seafood 😅)!

    It was the best hospitality and services I have experienced in Lisbon. In additon, all the deals were delicious and they were very attentive to the children's food. I will revisit in the next visit in Lisbon.

    Average food in a cool part of town. Strange imposed cheese starter already at the table for 10 euros which we couldn’t eat because my wife is pregnant. Absolutely fine but nothing special and wouldn’t visit again if we return to Lisbon.

    Food and service were excellent. Delicious, good quality food at affordable prices. The only glitch was their card machine was not working, so you had to pay by cash which is inconvenient (cash-based dining is not common anymore). Other than that, it was perfect!

    Friendly but formal service, great food (the best choco frito I’ve ever had including Setubal/Arrabida side), beautiful tram&old city&river view from the terrace. Perfect gem in the heart of the city!

    So happy to have found this great little spot. The outdoor terrace with a lemon tree growing in it is so lovely, the food was really great and the service super friendly and helpful. It was so much fun to eat here, highly recommend. And you even get to see the trolley roll by!

    Loved the staff who was friendly, helpful and chatted with us a lot. The food was good. I would recommend you to take the tuna for the starter and octopus for the main dish. Enjoy!

    I have been coming to Lisbon for about 10 years, when you first came here you could not go wrong with any little hole in the wall. Recently with the influx of visitors this is sadly no longer the case. This is not a bad restaurant but it definitely caters to people that don’t know the true quality of Portuguese traditional cuisine.

    This was a fantastic restaurant, a must-do in Lisbon. The little terrasse is very cozy with the lights and deco. The food was tasty and delicious, the fish was fresh and grilled on orders. I would recommand this restaurant to all the people I know coming to Lisbon!
