Other than the eggs, everything tasted like it was reheated leftovers. Sorry...i feel bad for this review because the staff and the Chef were attentive and personal.

I selected mid range based on price but for quality it would be fine dining.

There is not too much space between the tables. Starters: we had chorizo, farinheira, ovos com pimento, salada de polvo, bacalhau and migas. Every starter was very delicious. Main course: the bochechas tasted really good and the meat had a good quality. The pork meat was also prepared very well. The tomato mozzarella salad was decorated very nice. Drinks: the sangria didn't taste very good It was too sweet. Surprise: a very good fado group was playing a song for me because of my birthday. Price: the food is good, but for my feeling it is a little bit overpriced. Some friends rememberd on previous times when they came and there was also a possibility on the menu too eat a little bit cheaper. All in all: I can reccomend it and we will come back.

The attentive staff helped us choose from the menu and we were not disappointed with what they suggested! We shared a meat platter which came with six small side dishes, each as tasty as the meat. The beef and pork were cooked to perfection, the pork was some of the best I’ve ever eaten and I would return to Lisbon for it alone!
