We've had bifana a few times and are happy every time, we're not picky at all, but this was genuinely the hardest and driest, most inedible pork I've ever eaten in my life. We asked if there was any way we could get anything else. They took 20 minutes to get back to us, then brought the chef out. She said she refuses to make anything else or lower the price by any amount because "she made it as she made it", so we ended up paying 20€ for nothing. Such a weird experience honestly.

We came here after trying out a local vegetarian restaurant that, after our full day of hiking,…read morejust didn't have dishes with the heft that we needed We left super satisfied. The server was multilingual and worked with us in English as we don't speak very good Portuguese. He was super helpful in showing and explaining all the fresh fish they had available, and for me making sure my gluten issue was addressed. We also had a delicious dessert of homemade chocolate mousse, and once again the waiter was very kind to point out which desserts had gluten and which didn't. Finally, he gave us a great wine suggestion that we really enjoyed. This was a laid back, traditional Portuguese food experience that totally hit the spot after our long day of hiking and we couldn't be more pleased that we picked the place!

The service was excellent throughout, attentive without being intrusive, which matched the overall laid back atmosphere perfectly. The space itself has a lot of personality, with beautiful art on the walls and an array of products on display that would make for great souvenirs or gifts. We ordered an espresso, cappuccino, a pink panther strawberry smoothie and a freshly squeezed orange juice, all of which hit the spot. On the food side, the breakfast burrito and the earth delight, a lovely combination of yogurt, granola, fruit, honey, croissant and jams, were both fantastic. The staff even brought out an award winning hot sauce to go alongside the burrito, a small but memorable touch. The crowd added to the charm too. A guy quietly working on his laptop with his dog nearby pretty much sums up the energy of this place. Calm, unpretentious and enjoyable. A great spot to ease into the day.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

We went at a peak time around 12:30 and there were only two servers so it took a bit before she got to us. Cons: - There was a mix up with the orders since we switched to a larger table so the couple who had our old table got their/our food first - forgotten to give us cutlery for one of us that got the omelette earlier - forgot two out of three of our drinks and apologized for the late service of it They were super busy so we were more forgiving that the service wasn't perfect.

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.
