a week agoAmidst the chaos of this city it was really refreshing to be somewhere that felt so calm and homely. The owner/chef was lovely and despite not speaking English gave us recommendations and was super helpful. The portions were really generous and the whole experience was one of the best I've ever had. Only here for two days but we might just be heading back for dinner again tomorrow!

a week agoUnfortunately, the food was very disappointing. We had the suckling pig, and the "crust" was rubbery, the fries were lukewarm, and the meat was more of a mixture of bone, cartilage, and fat.

a month agoOn the recommendation of a competitor, where we had eaten (very well) the day before, we sat down and felt right at home. But with the typical flavors of Portugal on our plates! Quick and delicious, we highly recommend it!
