What MCA Canada doesn't like about Arc'da Velha:
I came here with my family based on the reviews. This is a small family run restaurant. Nothing fancy but nice comfortable setting. The service was okay. The server couldn’t recommend anything in particular since “everything was good”. The menu was limited but not a lot of fresh seafood options, if that is what you are looking for. They have a few good dishes (goat cheese and the grilled sausage) but everything else... View all feedback.

Service was great but we ordered mozzarella fingers and they were frozen fingers. Wasn’t expected for that price or place.

Simple and authentic place in the overly touristic section of Lagos. Fish or meat of the day always top notch. Don't miss the chorizo assado. Very affordable fo...
