3.5 stars This restaurant was right below our hotel so we…read morehad to give it a try when we didn't want to go far. It's a cool concept! So many meats to choose from...some you have never tried before. I can guarantee that! I suggest getting the pick three menu. The Kobe and Bison are great but you will want to try something adventurous, right? Zebra? Alligator? The menu is for 2, so it's cheaper than you might think! Of course you should grab a house wine while you are eating. The menu comes with a big plate of fries, a big plate of fruit and sauces. You cook your meats on a super heated stone. They cook fast so pay attention! Cool experience if you are nearby and looking for dinner.

We stumbled into this wine bar looking restaurant on a late Friday night as they were serving food…read moreclose to midnight. First - the wine list is very extensive and if you are a) not Portuguese and b) not familiar with the Portuguese wine, the menu could be very well written in Chinese. However, the staff is helpful and will get you there. Did I mention they have very reasonable prices too? Now, the food. You have a menu that includes every kind of meat and seafood you can think of on this planet earth (including zebra meat). Here is how you do it: either order one of the pairs on the menu (i.e., chicken+veal) or match 3+ meat types, all of which will go on your fondue (aka bbq). Your choice of any meat will come with 6 different types of mayo, french fries and a giant fruit platter. They bring a set of appetizers while you wait for your grill and do pick up the octopus salad. Meat is fresh, delicious and it is so much fun to grill your own meat while enjoying a nice bottle of wine. We will definitely be back here whenever we are in Lisbon.

This restaurant looked like a hole in the wall place in a triangular corner. When we entered we…read morewere pleasantly surprised by how nice it was inside. It was packed with people, which was a good sign. We enjoyed all our dishes, especially the tiger prawns, octopus, and seafood rice. The sangria was average. The service staff was very friendly and attentive.

The restaurant is away from tourist neighbor. But I suspect its target customers are tourists…read more They play American pop music all night long which is fine with me, but if you are looking for a local experience, this may not what you expected. Pastries de Bacalhau - the crust was not brown enough. May be longer time. The stuffing was flavorful but it's more the cod taste than the flavored mash potatoes which I prefer. I actually prefer the other local restaurant I tried the night before better. Caldo Verde - The potatoe part of the soup is great. Perfect viscosity but the flavor is not. It wasn't salty enough but more importantly is the flavor of the veggies and the spicy sausage they supposed to use that makes the soup taste different. Grilled giant pawns - The flavor of the prawns is not as intense as expected and hope to be. The squid ink pasta also lacked of flavor. That's disappointing. With the prawns, they should at least use the prawn shell to make sauce for the pastas. The pasta was tasteless, didn't even use enough garlic and olive oil to flavor it up. Seafood rice - Another disappointment. They used fish, small mussels and little bit of shrimp pieces along with some bigger whole shrimps and mussels. However, the rice was lack of the true seafood flavor that made from shell fish. They also added cilantro which overwhelmed the whatever left of seafood flavor. The lemonade was not a sweet lemonade but sour. Fyi. It's not fair we just went to another restaurant in the neighborhood and everything was so much better but people should know.

OMG! This was the best meal of our a European vacation. Hands down the best. I would go back again…read moreand again if I could. We order appetizers and then ordered them again. The food, atmosphere, and service were perfect. Ask the staff for the recommendations and then enjoy.

I'm so incredibly impressed. I loved that this place was in the ground floor of our hotel…read more Frederico is the expert on hospitality. He is so kind. He will talk to you for hours and teach you about food and wine and culture and talk about the history of food and how it came to be in Portugal. I loved it. I learned so much. I aspire, as an American, to learn from and look up to other cultures. I feel very honored to have dined in a restaurant managed by him on our trip to Portugal. I'm going to recommend to our travel coordinator to add this restaurant to the Google map recommendations list because more people need to go to this place - they need more tables, more space, because I'm convinced this is such a hidden gem that should be exposed to the masses to enjoy! We visited several wineries and this restaurant had the best wine - bar none! The fish, a fish I hadn't tried before, was deliciously seasoned, falls apart with the fork, the creamy rice was just divine. I normally will never eat little cherry/grape tomatoes - ever - but the perfect bite of fish, creamy rice, and a tomato was... perfection. The menu is deeply curated; flavors - textures - wines that make sense. You can tell Frederico what you normally like and he 100% knows what wines he has that you will love. The tomato, orange, ham, salad, was absolutely balanced and delicious. I'm so grateful that our first trip to Portugal we got to meet Frederico and dine with these wonderful people who love food and wine as much as us. I'll never forget it as long as I live. You will not be disappointed. Promise.
