Inside was classically decorated with many square tables that could be rearranged for groups of 1-2 or larger. We did not need a reservation but it was a Tuesday night at 8pm. Service was friendly but could felt similar to the service you get in many tourist restaurants and the idea of American tipping seems to be taking root.

The Cod Duque was under seasoned with the Octopus done well and the sweet potato puree was just....there.

Service was spot on despite having only one server for a very busy warm early April afternoon. That man was flying! Our server constructed additional tables with tablecloths (paper) for the growing crowd, bussed the tables, brought the apps, got the utensils, served the food, handled the check. He did it all at lightning speed. The food was delicious. We had the Grilled Cod for Two. My spouse who is not a fish fan could not say enough about this meal. Superb!

I found myself here almost everyday to either wine down or ensure I tried everything on the menu. Other than the fresh cuisine and inventive cocktails & mocktails, what gravitated me towards Erva the most was the MUSIC. The playlist was everything! I found my octopus rice and ginger infused mocktail to go down much smoother with a throwback 90s/00s playlist. The only reason I removed one star was the inconsistency of service. I went during mostly slow hours and the attentiveness seemed to depend on who was working that day.

I really liked our orders. I got the bacalhau da cas and it was codfish with rice basically. It was a bit salty but i still enjoyed the food.

I would also prepare to wait on line since this place does not take reservations and it's first come first serve. The restaurant is small and gets packed.
