The owner is the one-woman show for this place. She's eccentric, in a good way. She is balancing a whole act here. She let us snag a table right at 18:30 but told us we had to be done by 19:00 since that's when the next reservation was. No prob! We placed our order for a mixed plate 1 + small sides of garlic rice and mashed potatoes. We saw a fam roll in, a group of four, and they had reservations. However, they didn't vibe with the owner and mistook her eccentricity for unwelcoming vibes - she did recommend them a nice table service serving similar foods up the street. Anyway, she called us over to pick up our orders to bring them to our tables. It was so yummy! A bit salty for our liking, but we were happy to try out her food. Her sauces are delicious and good to pour over the garlic rice. If you don't have reservations, there is always take-away as an option. Bon appetit

I was also surprised how much I liked the hot pineapple they offered. Deserts were extra.

It's a decent view past that, since it overlooks the Parça do Comercio. The service was decent. They were pleasant and were helpful with people who only knew a few Portuguese words. The prices were high for Portugal. We paid 110 euros per person. Unfortunately I cannot recommend this restaurant. It felt like a tourist trap with high prices, and low quality meat. When we were all done every person had chewed and spit out portions of the beef that wasn't edible. Such better options off the main roads.

Food quality was top notch. We got a shared plate of Mixed Grill and all the meat was fantastic. Ribs, lamb, prawns, steak were all incredibly juicy and flavorful. The broccoli puree was amazing! I think even those that don't like broccoli loved it. Salad was tasty and very green and fresh. Ambiance: Top notch. Very elegant, reminded me of a nice restaurant in Vegas with the large bar and dark, romantic decor. The chairs were also lush and comfortable. Staff: Very accommodating to American's and very friendly. He made wine recommendations that didn't break the bank, which I appreciated. While the price seems high for individual dishes, we found the shared plate to be incredibly affordable and perhaps the reason for so many groups.
