I ordered the traditional Portuguese bark stew and it was by far the worst I ever had in a restaurant. disgusting pieces of dry meat and fat on a thick layer of cauliflower and rice swim in water. my friend had a pork dish that was acceptable but not delicious. the interieur is nothing to write home, nor has the service in any way for the bad eating. a very unpleasant experience.

When do I ever listen to her?

So we just started going back to our hotel window and shopping the restaurant. we said there were some people sitting inside and. they sell seafood so why not. we were happy that we did. the most friendly staff who was eating was price. perfect eating was fresh and cooking to perfection. bad, that was our last night in lisbon otherwise we would regularly.

It was nearly full and looked like...a simple, unpretentious, locals kind of place so thought we'd venture in. We both ordered the steak with the egg (came with rice, chips and salad) and the guy there recommended a nice bottle of red. The food was really tasty and unbelievable considering the tiny kitchen and the one lady cooking for everyone!! If you want a simple honest meal in a simple honest place then this is it. Bread, (big) main meal for 2 and a bottle of red €29!
