My husband found this local gem online and it did not disappoint. Yelp says they open at 6, this is…read moreincorrect. They open at 5:30pm. We got there right at 6 and they gave us one of only 2 remaining tables, telling us we had to be done by 7:30pm. We started with prosciutto & melon which was AMAZING!!!!! And reminded us of Italy. My children got the house style spaghetti which was a cream sauce with tomatoes and ham. Neither kid could get enough! The pasta was soooo tasty. My husband and I shared the Mixed Catalana for 2 - prawns and clams. It was the best meal we had during our almost 2 week trip to Portugal. The broth was so delicious I could've drank it with my spoon. It was loaded with veggies too. Came with white rice on the side and some fried potatoes. Also my husband got a glass of house red wine which was a very generous pour! They only take cash, which we did not know ahead of time. But luckily there's an ATM across the street. They turned tons of people away while we were eating. I guess their system is reservation only from 5:30-7:30pm and then after 7:30pm they allow walks in on a first come, first serve basis.

A lovely family restaurant with the kindest family. Coming here in late October, it's a little less…read morebusy so we were able to slip in for dinner around 8pm without issue. We started with the family lemonade which was so refreshing and had lots of fresh citrus in it. We felt like we were at a family dinner here with how welcoming it was. We got the Sevilla style squid which was ok, the piri piri helped add flavor. The prawns were plump and flavorful in a nice sauce that we used our garlic bread to sop up the flavors. The sea bream was such a nice and light flavor. Crisp on the outside but soft and meaty inside with fries nicely seasoned and cooked. It's off the beaten path a bit on a side street but still central to town.

We started with their bread and I really enjoyed there two different options of butter and this ricotta cheese with bacon. For the kids, we ordered the sirloin and split it in half w/ a side order of fries. Kids loved it and I would not be surprised if they cut their own fries since they were so delicious. Wifey got oysters and grilled octopus. Per her, the oysters were delicious and fresh with good sauce. The octopus had great flavor combinations and was expertly cooked. No complaints from her end. I ordered the sea bass with additional vegetables on the side. Wow. It came with this clam rice risotto that was so good with the sea bass. My only complaint was catching a couple of bones in the fish. I definitely recommend stopping here for dinner. We were here right around 1845 which is early for dinner out here. We were the only family seated inside so it was nice and calm. The decor is really nice inside so it's a thumbs up to bring a romantic date.

The place is cafeteriaish and holds about 200 people. Even though it's in a tourist location, the majority of the customers are Portuguese.

It's fine, accept it. Food is basically cafeteria food with a waiter taking your order. The table beside me ordered fish that was definitely fermented, but he ate it, because I don't think he knows what ferment tastes like. If I could have moved I would have, instead just tried to turn away. Overall, take your chances somewhere else, even if that doesn't work out well, you are not missing anything here.

Everything we ordered was a hit, even among those that are more new to seafood and more hesitant to try! Octopus with clams: 12/10, so perfectly cooked and delicious Beef steak with pepper sauce: 13/10, we weren't sure if we were actually given the beef steak with mushroom sauce but whichever it was, we thoroughly enjoyed! It was cooked exactly as we ordered it and the sauce was delicious. Grilled Gold Bream: 13/10, also so perfectly cooked, and our server expertly deboned it for us which was kind and helpful. Tiramisu: 10/10, a classic and delicious! Our server in general was funny and kind and we really appreciated him for making the night that much more wonderful.

After being seated, we ordered a basket of bread, chorizo, mussels, and fish. The chorizo came out in flames, and we weren't sure when to blow it out lol.

We decided to get a slice chocolate cake at the end of our meal, which came with a small scoop of gelato. The dessert was delicious and not too sweet!

Ordered several dishes such as the sea scallop au gratin, cod carpaccio with red berries vinaigrette and pomegranate, clams and shrimps in the "Cataplana" along with lamb carre in port wine reduction with sautéed vegetables. Delicious. Everything was so delicious! I do have say my favorite was the sea scallop au gratin and lamb carre! Of course with the addition of splitting a small bottle of green wine! Cost: Definitely a little on the pricier side in comparison to the places around the area and even in the region but still worth it for the quality of the food that you're getting! Environment: Very big restaurant, at least from the outside! Didn't make any reservation and it seemed that a lot of the tables had the reservation sign on it and upon arriving, our waiter did have the face of 'hm....where can I seat them' look haha Service: Arrived when it didn't seem too busy (even though the tables all had reservation signs) and so service was fairly normal. Uniqueness: Great establishment with tons of dishes to try, especially if you want to splurge a little!
