Just visited this lovely little restaurant, staff were amazing, friendly and helpful and the food was absolutely delicious.. If you like seafood then make sure you pay this place a visit... The Fish Soup was the best I've ever had!! We then had sardines & salmon as our main meals and both were served up perfectly.... good sized portions for a reasonable price. Would highly recommend if you're in the area

This is officially the best place we ever had stake!!!! Look at this size!!! Great shrimp salad too, such a pity I asked for no onion and no tomato but got… half a plate full of tomatoes and onion underneath. I’m sure the chef didn’t read the note but the way he did the steak?! Hats down!

Food taste was pretty good. Felt like home cooked. Price reasonable and portions are good. Not expensive. But we told the older waiter that we did not want the couvert. He took it away, but we were still charged for it. We couldn't read Portuguese so we didn't know we paid for it until we googled the item when we got back to hotel. The younger waiter was very good, but doesn't speak English.
