The dining room is floor to celling Windows which afford a great view of the harbor. The menu is comprised of mostly seafood dishes so we had the seafood risotto. It was fantastic. I think there was a whole bays worth of shellfish in the pot and the rice was cooked perfectly. We also had some excellent Vino Verde is wash it all down. It was great to see the Portuguese grandmas cooking back in the kitchen. My experience has taught me that any place with grandmas cooking in the kitchen is gonna be amazing.

The restaurant looked so fancy I felt a bit out of place in my casual wear even though some other customers were dressed casually too. We decided to dine indoors as opposed to the outdoor seating facing the square. Our waiter communicated fluently in English. Couvert - (Couverts are served at the beginning of the meal. It's usually fresh bread, olives, sardine paté, cheese, etc. The servers typically ask if you want it but you can always ask the waiter to take it back if you don't.) The couvert here was 4 euros per head. We had three people so we got charged 12 euros for a total of four pieces of warm bread that came with salmon, tuna, and olive oil dip. The dips were so good that I can't complain about the absurd pricing. Salads Peras (pear salad)- 8 euros. My mom really liked her salad, especially the salad dressing. Ravioli Ricotta - 12 euros. It was nothing special. Risotto Cogumelos (Risotto with mushroom and thyme)- 15 euros. The risotto was too herb-y for my taste. The flavor was really strong after a couple more bites so I didn't finish it. A large water was 2.50 euros. The dessert menu was really tempting but we all passed since we were so full.

The temperature was still bearable though. The food took a bit to come out but it was worth the wait. Cogumelos recheados (stuffed mushrooms with bacon) - 6.90 euros. My mouth is watering thinking about it right now. This is one of the best things I've eaten during my time in Portugal. It was so juicy and savory. I could've just stuffed myself with a bunch of these instead of getting an entree. There were five pieces. Tagli Primavera (pasta with vegetables) - 9.50 euros. The pasta was OK. It came with mushrooms. I wish there were more pasta than veggies though. Salads Mista (mixed salad) - 2.50 euros. It was a very plain salad. Bacalhau na brasa (charcoaled cod fish) - 11.80 euros. It was too salty. Bifinhos Peru (turkey) - 6.50 euros. This was the dark horse of the meal. It turned out to be very tasty. It was turkey with cream and mushrooms over rice. The pairing was absolutely perfect, even if the cream and mushrooms did remind me of canned soup. 1.5 Liter water - 2.30 euros. I would definitely recommend this restaurant. It's a very nice place that could seem upscale at first, but actually has a casual, relaxing atmosphere. The food portions were big and not costly at all.
