Choco Fritois perfectly seasoned and cooked. The best so far. The tempura green beans are a great addition. Also, Paulinho prepares his sardines in a tomato sauce. A nice treat. Love the mushrooms here too. His wines are above average and not the usual wines. Go here for the better wines in Portugal. A glass of wine starts at 3 euros. I love this place because of its connectance and super relaxing! Highly recommend!

To be thruthfull it is a pleasant place to be and the drinks and food are good, hence the fact I am giving it 3 stars. So why not 5 stars? The service, it took ages to get anything to the table. I do understand they do everything on the spot which is amazing, but they don't have enough staff to handle busy times. My nachos were a really good portion and tasty, but by the time they arrived at the table they were a bit cold alrady. Give it a try but don't raise your expectations to high.

Interior is a clean, modern, hip environment functional, but pleasant, outside more traditional tables and chairs under umbrellas. Their speciality is a piadina (an Italian type of wrap but there are many other options on the menu. The starter I had, of oven baked goats cheese with honey and wallnuts was particularly good (and filling! and the piadina was delicious. The service stood out very personal and friendly, making me (dining by myself very welcome. Of the various restaurants I experienced in my week in Lisbon, this one stood out the whole experience was simply pleasant, with good food, decent prices, and great service.
