    Can't recommend enough. Food is amazing and reasonably priced. Fresh produce. Kind service. Indoor and outdoor seating.

    This place was exceptionally good. We went for lunch on a Wednesday 2 weeks ago. Once we ordered, it took a little while for our food to be served but it was well worth the wait! Highly recommend!

    Shrimp curry... so much seafood beneath the surface...!

    Pedro, the owner, waited on us - and not only was he a distinguished gentleman, he was also very jovial and proud of his menu... and for VERY good reason! The shrimp and clams on the starter menu were exceptionally fresh and perfectly cooked! The octopus on the main course menu was as well - and the leeks were a nice creative touch! The shrimp curry was beautifully prepared and included an ample portion of fish and clams in the curry broth. This is an exceptional find in Sesimbra!!

    I now understand what they mean by "true Portuguese" restaurants. This was recommended by our local…read moreUber driver and it is tucked away off of the Sesimbra city center. There is a small patio seating area and then about 10 tables or so inside the inviting space. It is full of fish decor and carved wooden chairs and tables. A really charming mom and pop spot. At 7-ish PM were immediately greeted and seated. Given how popular the place supposedly was with locals, we were surprised by so few tables occupied. However, by the time we left a little after 8, the place was full. To our table, they immediately brought bread and a plate of cheeses, sardine pate, and butter. Know that you must pay for all of these and can hand back any items you do not plan to consume and not get charged. We handed back the plate with all but the butter and kept the bread. This was a solid choice and tasty bread. We ordered a curried shrimp stew and a pepper steak with a side of vegetables. The vegetables were a flat Italian green bean and they were expertly sautéed in garlic and butter. The curry was delicious with a seemingly endless amount of shrimp (served over white rice). It cost around 12 euros. The pepper steak was covered in a scrumptious brown sauce and served with both white rice and steak fries and a random few slices of tomatoes. The steak itself was a much thinner cut than they give in the US but was cooked well and was very tender. I was able to eat my portion with a butter knife! My husband and I enjoyed dipping the fries into the steak sauce. If you eat here, plan to pay with euros or a Visa or Mastercard. We had not yet exchanged currency to Euros and my typical travel Amex was giving them issues. It was awkward (but they were very kind and patient as we sought out an ATM). Would recommend. Most locals seemed to be ordering the fried or grilled fish, FYI.

    This place was amazing, very authentic Portuguese food. Six minute walk from our hotel. 12-15…read moreeuros each. Mom & Pop restaurant where locals eat. Opens at 7pm, we walked right in, but it got busy shortly there after. We had the grilled fish, potatoes and salad and shrimp curry. I had to try the almond pie for dessert, it was delish! You will love it!!!
