After an amazing day exploring Cascais I couldn't leave without eating here. We order the three sauces , house wine, mushroom pilau rice and lamb curry. The service was wonderful.

Here's the rundown of the food we ordered: - Butter chicken: every place you go to will prepare it differently, and this place was heavy on the cream, butter, cashews, and earthy spices as opposed to hot spices - Mixed tandoori: meat was cooked well and was tender - it was falling off the bone - Garlic / plain naan: both were great, this was honestly my favourite part as the naan was very fluffy and perfectly cooked - Rice: plain basmati rice, nothing out of the ordinary Overall would say this is a very solid spot, worth checking out. The food was good, however the spice level was extremely mild, even for the spicy versions - it would've been great if they added a bit more heat to their dishes.

The masala papad was very sour and the paneer tikka masala taste was off...it did not taste like paneer tikka masala. The naan was probably the best tasting thing we ordered here.

Nothing was even close to being mediocre, from the pappadam to the mixed pickles.

And the server explained and checked every dish that we could order. He even came up with an off-the-menu dish to meet the restrictions as most dishes were too spicy. We got: Papadh - freshly fried and served with tamarind sauce, mint chutney, and mango chutney. We ordered 2 to share amongst the 4 of us and it was perfect. Palak paneer - soft house made paneer cheese with a delicious spinach sauce. Perfectly spiced and generous portions. Lamb shishi - tender pieces of boneless lamb pieces in a sweet cashew/almond sauce. Mildly spiced, but still a ton of flavor. It's similiar to lamb korma but with a hint of sweetness. If you don't like spice but still want the complex Indian flavors, this is the dish for you. mango shrimp - big pieces of shrimp swimming in a warm and well spiced mango puree sauce. It's different than how I'd imagine mango shrimp, but it was still tasty and had a nice balance between sweet and salty. This was the dish the server modified to meet our gluten-free, spice-free, and dairy free needs. We chose to sit outside in the back alley and it was small side street with a partial view of the ocean. A few pedestrians walked by, but it was still a lovely spot. After our meal, it started pouring and the roads flooded quickly. The restaurant wasn't too busy, so they encouraged us wait inside till the rain stopped. Great hospitality

The tandoori chicken was really good ( just beware that the four pieces you get are all very small) still as part of the lunch special it was a filling meal. We also had chicken tikka masala. The waiter checked if we wanted cream and also the spice level. We opted for yes on the cream and no on spiciness - I think I would have been better otherwise but I appreciate that they asked and gave us what we ordered.

The flavors are spot on. The food is freshly prepared. The ambiance is nice, but it's a bit tucked away and difficult to find, if you don't follow their signs. A really added bonus, is they don't close after lunch hours like the rest of the Portuguese restaurants around the area. So, if you're tired of walking all the palaces, this is a nice place to put your feet up.

It was not…read moredifficult to find and, in fact, perhaps easier to reach by foot than by car, since it was located in a nicely kept urban cul-de-sac. Parking looked like it might be at a bit of a premium. The storefront was in a walk-up, turn-of-the-century style facade with a warm and inviting appearance. The entry area was narrow with tables lining the walls for 3 or 4 meters, which then opened into a larger seating area with a decent capacity and a full bar overlooking the floor. The decor was conducive to a nice, relaxed ambiance. There also might have been another level to this establishment, but I did not explore that possibility. I was seated quickly and without any fuss in the narrow area of the restaurant, which was a little quieter than the main portion of the dining room. It was moderately busy and I found the less populated portion of the room to my liking. My waiter tended to me fairly quickly and did a good job during my entire visit. The menu tended toward Goan regional specialties, which was a nice twist. That is not something I often find and it is also ties the menu to their Portuguese location. I decided to try the Chicken Chacuti, a Portuguese influenced dish with coconut, ginger, garlic and other spices. I had never had this before, but it sounded quite intriguing. I opted to accompany it with rice and Peshwari Naan. This combination was wonderful as the sweetness of the bread offset the slightly spicy tone of the main dish. I was generally quite satisfied with my fare. I finished this with a decent Masala Chai. The total bill was €25.30, which included my main and the accompaniments, a glass of house red, a water and the tea. I thought this was reasonable considering the quality of the fare. This was roughly $28 USD with the exchange rate at the time. If you are in the area and fancy Indian fare, I would not hesitate to recommend this spot.

This spot was a hit for every single person in our group. The bolognese was incredible, fresh Greek salad, my husband had a traditional Porto "sandwich" which is called a francescina (sp?) which is basically a sandwich lasagna or as we liked to call it a wet Portuguese sandwich (a La wet burrito) and everything was great. There was a KIDS MENU (YAY!!!) The kids had kids cheese pizza and butter spaghetti. When we were done my youngest practically threw her body over the leftover pizza so they wouldn't take it away, she was so excited to take home leftovers. They gave the kids lollipops after the meal complimentary. They were attentive and prompt, which we found refreshing. The red fruit champagne sangria (comes in a pitcher so be sure to share or be very thirsty) was delicious! Not too sweet. Overall, everything was excellent and we would go back 10x if we could.
