He could have mentioned this. The second waitress asked if we wanted bread and we gave an unenthusiastic yes. We were not told we would be charged for this and each small packet of butter and fish paste. I asked if they had Bacalhau de Bras (traditional cod, egg, potato dish) and she said yes and brought me something else. We all had different orders but essentially all ended up with oily, tasteless grilled cod with onions/garlic and burned tasteless prawns. Terrible food. Terrible service.

So we went back the next day around 12:00 pm. We ordered the Caldeirada de Bacalhau and the Picanha Grelhada. Both were nice! The lady gave our son some fries before the food was ready. (Thanks! We also took a bottle house wine. And we could take away the Arroz marisco. <br/ <br/ Nice staff and great food! Melody is a recommended restaurant!
