It's a big establishment that looks beautiful outside and inside. Our waiter was very observant, bringing another customer napkins when he saw the customer had spilled something on himself, and bringing us more bread when he saw we were almost done. However, he mixed up the combinations of our orders. The beef steak order was supposed to have Portuguese sauce with fried eggs but there were no eggs and it came with mustard sauce, which didn't taste as good as the Portuguese sauce. The chicken steak was supposed to come in mustard sauce and no fried egg but it was covered in Portuguese sauce topped with a fried egg. Pao Torrado Fatitas (bread) - .65 euros. 2 Manteiga, 2 Manteiga Alho (4 packs of butter)- 3.20 euros. The garlic butter was too addicting for my own good. The beef/chicken steaks drenched with either Portuguese or mustard sauce came with two free sides (rice, salad, etcand a fried egg for an extra charge. The chicken steak was only 9.95 euros while the beef steak was 15.60 euros. I absolutely loved the spinach purée side, it didn't sound appetizing but it was so bomb. Try dipping your fries in it! Overall, the chicken steak was a bit boring even with the sauce. They didn't have hamburgers left.

This was perhaps my favorite meal I had in Lisbon. The food here is delicious, unbelievable and…read moreincredible. Upon seating, you'll be served homemade bread with olives, cheese, hot and juicy sausage (I'm pretty sure it was the chourico assado). As our main meal, we ordered the sea bass, sardines, and French fries. Although it sounds like simple food, it was insanely fresh, hot, and delicious. We had a whole bottle of vinho verde, only amount to about 6 euros, and it was amazing. This place was filled with locals. If you're headed to Lisbon, go here. Go to the local places. You may just have one of the most memorable meal of your life

So I'm…read moregoing to assume my experience was totally different because of staff or just over time decline of service. But it completely soured my experience of Portugal. We wanted to try authentic homemade food and everything at first was great. They had olives and cheese placed on the table and then someone handed us some chorizo. They handed my husband the plate and said "chorizo really nice" and he placed it on the table. We looked confused said we didn't order it but he gestured to try it. We said thank you and went to order our food (basic and okay. Maybe 6/10. They didn't have half of the items we initially wanted to try) finished and got up to paid. The olives (which we didn't eat because I'm pregnant and they made me violently nauseous)cheese and chorizo (which I also can't have because it's cured meat) were surprisingly on our check. We mentioned we didn't order it, that it was on our table & they said "well you ate it". We assumed it was a nice gesture,and the attitude we got from that simple statement after asking about it changed their entire mood towards us. Then one of the staff said "they just don't want to pay". We didn't carry enough cash on us to pay the entire bill because of it and they immediately started accusing of being thieves. They told my husband to go get cash while I stayed behind as like collateral? We were traveling in another country and I'm pregnant, with no cell service. That's not happening so when we said no that's not an option they became more hostile and aggressive. You hear about scams on the streets but beware of this particular place that will trick you into paying more then get aggressive when you question the bill. MAJOR SKIP.

Our server was attentive the entire time which was very much appreciated. There's a cool ambiance about this restaurant -- everyone here (except me!) were dressed very trendy. We started off with a round of caipirinhas which were well made and strong. For pizzas, we went with the caprese and margherita pizzas which were a nice balance. The caprese was topped with fresh arugula and cherry tomatoes which were refreshing. The margherita was everything you'd expect it to be. If you're craving pizza in Lisbon, give this place a try!

We were disappointed at the time but we found many other restaurants that had good seafood as well. We were traveling with other family members this time and thought this restaurant would be the best places to try pretty much every seafood dishes available in Lisbon and some of the unique foods that we can't get at home. We had barnacles, glass shrimp (it is supposed to have eggs outside the shell but unfortunately we were told the season was over so there were no eggs), spider crab, oysters with caviar, scallops, razor clams, and cheese with bread. My daughter's boyfriend tasted the barnacles for the first time and he loved it. We ended up ordering it twice. Everything was delicious. Everyone enjoyed the food. Excellent service.

We also wanted an authentic Portuguese place and not anything touristy. Be careful what you wish for! We took a number but were almost bypassed as they were calling higher numbers. I got the "matre d's" attention and showed him my number. He spoke no English as could be expected - not an issue! So, he bumped us up to the front of the line. We climbed a long narrow and steep staircase to reach a long narrow hallway with about 20 staff running about and squeezing by each other. Somehow, we found the dining room and our waiter greeted us offering us a choice of tables. Clientele were very well dressed and spoke in Portuguese looking very comfortable. He immediately brought us a huge basket of garlic bread! It was quite a nice atmosphere and reminiscent of an older home with high ceilings. We had trouble ordering from the phone app (as it should be because it was in Portuguese only) so our waiter guided us. No IPA and no wine except moscatel. But this was a cerveseria with no IPA! So we tried two glasses of moscatel- not our favorite as it was much too sweet. We agreed to the garlic shrimp and lazy crab. I asked what it came with and he said nothing and pointed to the garlic bread. I asked about ordering veggies and he said there were none! The crab was fridge cold but would have been better warm. The shrimp could have been tasty if not so salty. It wouldn't have been such a culture shock but it was also very pricey for what is was. I don't regret this experience as I was immersed in Portuguese culture and food. But no veggies is unthinkable! lol
