I was asking for compensation in the prize for waiting and not getting the main course at all, result from the waiter and the owner of the restaurant: physical threatening, pushing and abusing. We had to call the police. I can not recommend this place to anyone at any situation.

Served with compound "jamon butter" and "chorizo butter"!!! and with exceptionally good olives. There was no need to go any further, but we did. The expertly sliced bellota with three cheeses, and a nice older red wine from Colinas were excellent together. We also had great batatas bravas and some nice mushroom and cheese phyllo cigars. The service was perfect. We ate outside and there happened to be a nice band playing down the road. Made for an exceptional evening! The chef came out for a nice conversation at the end. Highly recommended!!!

The octopus grilled definitely had complex textures tender charred grilled tentacles ends. It was great entree. The ribeye was another amazing entree the size portion was fantastic. Seasoned prepared as specified. Tender fatty but not as much as you'd usually expect also it was a boneless steak yet still it was so special. It gets packed Easily but they let you enjoy yourself not a rush to get you out. Wine great food great time with friends and family wonderful city. The fish soup was brothy with a combination of different fish pieces. The lamb chop was tender grilled medium. I do wish it was as seasoned as the ribeye but it was well worth it. The price point for 5 entrees will have you thinking it's not possible. They have fresh fish layed out as you enter.

The terrace is an absolutely perfect setting to enjoy wine and dinner while the sun is setting. The food was beyond excellent.

Finished with a traditional Algarvean rolled dessert with dried fruits and my wife had bread pudding. My two daughters also had wonderful kids' dinners and strawberry ice cream.
