Horrible treatment. It seems that if you don't speak Portuguese they leave you for last. More than an hour and a half to eat and we had ordered soups of the day and things to do on the griddle. When we claimed the food, the owner treated me like I was a fool. Seems like a grilled horse mackerel needs 45 mins to get right. When he brought it back it was hard and dry. The pork fillet was worse and the grilled tuna was tougher. The soups arrived within 45 minutes of ordering and were cold. I WILL NEVER COME BACK.

I put one star because I can't put zero. At first they didn't even attend us to sit down (first bad sign that we didn't know how to take advantage of), it took them half an hour to take our order and then an hour and a half by the clock to serve us. When we asked the owner what was going on, he told us that it took time because the fish we ordered had to be done well band and band, 3 minutes per band (equivalent as we all know to an hour and a half). All the fish we were served was fit to make shoes. During our short stay in the restaurant we could see how people who speak Portuguese are treated with priority, arriving later than us, eating and leaving earlier. The price, for 4 people, was not at all close to the quality of the food. The only good thing was the beer, cold and it arrived more or less on time.

Too much waiting time, and arrogance on the part of the owner. Food: 2 Service: 1 Atmosphere: 3

Don 't go, it 's terrible. Any good review must be from the owner 's friends. It took us almost 2 hours to be served some very, very average food on a night that wasn 't busy. This place is the dictionary definition of a Tourist Trap . Not enough cooks, not enough waiters, impossibly long wait times, and worst of all the owner is arrogant, condescending, and devoid of empathy towards his clients, insofar that tourists seem like a joke to him. It 's easy to see this place is a cash cow and he doesn 't care for tourists, and I say this because every Portuguese speaking table was served before us, even those who arrived way after we did. Favouritism plain and simple. I would never go back under the current management. Our worst dining experience in Portugal.
