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.

After seeing the photos and menu my husband and I came here for lunch on our last day in Lisbon. This cute little tapas restaurant was located only 8 minute walk from our hotel. We ordered swordfish ceviche, tuna tartare, cheese board and seared foie gras on a toast. Our server explained the details of each dish that sounded so delicious. And every dish tasted great, especially we didn't expect to have such delicious foie gras in Lisbon. It's one of our favorite dishes but unfortunately we can't get it in California. We started eating swordfish ceviche and tuna tartare before taking photos. They also had Monkey 47 gin which is my husband's favorite gin. My sangria tasted perfect for me. Excellent service.

The entrance is roped out - when you try to get in, one of the staff members comes out to explain the 'rule'...basically two food items per person is required (requested), so you cannot come here just for beverages. There were lots of yummy tapas dishes described on the blackboard, but I definitely enjoyed my selection - well, thanks to the helpful staff to make my decision. Both seared tuna and boiled shrimp were excellent, and perfect afternoon snack for me!
