I didn't realize the Portuguese eat a little bit later at night. It felt like I was in my own private restaurant so that was super funny to think about. Otherwise, though it was such a vibe, it has such a cute interior with paintings on the wall a Christmas tree on the side and a more modern wooden finish. Bathroom is also located on the first floor and it's very clean. Service was fantastic. My waiter, Nabil, was so friendly. He chatted with me and told me a little bit about Portugal. English was not a problem for him and I had no trouble as an English tourist. Service was fast, and he checked in with me every couple minutes. I had gone here as a recommendation from a coworker, and it was fantastic. The duck confit was cooked so tender and served with rice and spinach. The rice tasted cheesy and rich and it was also perfectly balanced with the meal. I highly recommend that as a dish! Otherwise, though, I ordered the green wine and it was pretty good. In Lisbon, I was told to try the green wine because it's from a specific region. It tastes kinda like a Chardonnay.

Highly recommend for a nice night out.

Came here to check out the food and vibes since it was close to where I was staying, and left feeling full and happy. The prices are reasonable too. Note that they tend to get crowded during the weekends and on some weekday evenings. They take reservations and everyone I spoke to seemed to be pretty fluent in English. The meal comes with free bread and olive oil, and true to Portuguese cuisine there were a lot of seafood options, as well as an assortment of pastas to choose from. My server was super friendly and they don't rush you here at all, despite the busyness - feel free to dine at your leisure, and if you're in a group, order a few dishes to share so you can sample more!

Here is what we got: 1Lamb with Chestnut 2Beef Shank Sando 3Codfish without Cream 4Squid with Orange 5 Cuttlefish Inked Stew 6Fries, "Francesina Sauce" The presentation on everything was nice. You can notice the attention to detail. The Lamb with Chestnut tasted Braised to the point where the meat was tender & juice. Beef Shank Sando was a hot mess of goodness. The beef was soaked in its own juices making every bite a flavorful bomb Codfish without Cream had a flaky Cod in a nice seasoned sauce. Squid with Orange was a nice surprise. The Squid was perfectly cooked with a smokey taste with a chewy texture. The Orange gave it a citrus taste that just complimented the squid Cuttlefish Inked Stew was decent it just had too many beans in it. Cuttlefish was fresh & tasty The Fries were crispy & yummy Overall, pretty reasonable price for the quality of food
