The food here was pretty good! We ordered tuna steaks and got a couple of Imperial Beers for our…read morelast dinner in Portugal. The tuna steaks were very tender and easy to chew. If I were to go back again, I would get two orders of the tuna steak with onions on top and french fries instead of one of those along with a tuna steak with hummus and vegetables. I think the tuna steak is a must-get since it is their signature dish, from what I read. We had a reservation, but it wasn't necessary. It was a little confusing to find the restaurant - it is on the second floor above a store - you have to take the stairs on the right side of the store to get to the restaurant above.

This place was recommended by a family member that grew up in the area and is worth a visit! Their…read moremenu has a lot of options for people and they have A LOT of desserts and regional ones as well. The service is fast and you have to pay inside after you ask for your bill. They are quick to get your order if you eat outside or are getting pastries to go inside. The space is nice and the outdoor seating area is the better option. I would recommend one of the regional pastries such as fruta de Algarve, which are similar to soft marzipan with a thick egg yolk and sugar mixture in the middle. It's not like marzipan in the States and a lot softer and has a better texture and flavor. The other would be the Dom Rodrigo, which comes in a little colorful foil packet. It's an egg yolk and sugar mixture that is in thin strings layered on top of each other and swimming in a simple syrup. It might be too sweet for some.
