After the starter, Clams Bulhao Pato (can only complaint about the size of the clams as they were too small) that were really tasty, I asked for grilled Octopus. Was nice, well season and very tender. As for the the wine list, has some of the major names in Portugal, although I asked for an Alvarinho Santiago and it was out of stock so I asked for a Sauvignon Blanc from Quinta dos Abibes. Not the perfect paring... For the Octopus I asked for the Quinta do Pinto Grande Escolha which was a better paring. A very good experience! A final thank you for the great staff that helped charge my phone (that's why no photos)!!
