It's run by authentic Chinese (I'm assuming, immigrants). I definitely recommend the Xiao long bao (soup dumplings) and har Gao (shrimp dumplings). These were pleasantly delicious, and had a different taste as they likely reflect the local ingredients. The shu Mai were strange to me: they were basically sticky rice steam inside wonton wrapping paper. Nonetheless the service was great, bathroom clean, WiFi strong, and beers/wine cheap!

Over all, it was a great value for money as our bill was only 33€. The soup dumplings did not have any soup. I was suspicious when they were delivered without soup spoons. I've had soup dumplings in many different countries and these were just ok. The gyoza was a little flavorless and the wonton soup was very oily, so I ate the wontons and left the soup. The spicy chicken was good.

Food smelled delicious as the fresh fish is grilled and brought out fresh. Most fishes also come with a side of boiled potatoes lightly salted (see picture of sardines). It's a classic European restaurant on the inside with many small tables inside with a few on the patio. Staff were overall very pleasant with a constant stream of staff members bringing food and checking in. As we were travelers and do not know much Portuguese at all, they still made us feel welcome and had good English language skills.

Squid here was delicious, perfectly cooked, perfectly seasoned, and a bunch of it. Great potatoes to go with it, too. I'd eat here every day if I could. The "couvert" was fish pate from a tin, not made in-house, but it's Portugal, so the tinned fish was still great, obviously. The olives with it were just ok, but the bread was great. I was also happy that they did, indeed, understand that we were going to share it, but only wanted a couvert plate serving for one (I hadn't been sure.) I was a little sad my wife really wanted red meat that day, so we couldn't get the seafood sampler platter for 2, but her pork chop was also great, I know because it was also huge, so I ended up eating like a third of it. Also perfectly cooked and seasoned, and it did go great with fries. The fries were also great, too, super freshly made and perfectly crispy, though the one downside, everything else but the fries were ready super quickly, then the fries showed up after we were about halfway done eating the rest of it. Definitely freshly cooked, though! Also unlike the place the previous day that served us exceptionally mediocre squid the previous day, they also sell very affordable wines here. They have a good number of extremely reasonably priced half-bottles of all types, but we didn't need a whole half-bottle of wine, so I just got a glass of the house white, which was, at least as of a couple months ago, only 2.5 euros! Seriously, I'd come here all the time if I could.I wish I had gotten to try everything on the menu.

Lots of space but many of the 2 seater table face in a direction of no view of the room. Can I mention the "walk" here was monumental ? Insanely steep and up up up. A Bolt back was reasonable enough not to miss this place if you are not close by. We walked from near the Baixa/Chiado station. The food, absolutely superb. Exactly what I would expect what a Michelin Star venues would serve. Service exceptional. I think that the highly regarded Roasted Eggplant with Miso Caramel & Pistachio was one of the best dishes of my life, and I am not always a fan of eggplant. This was a firm block of roasted eggplant with a volcano like coating of this insanely crazy umami-sweet-decadent sauce. Honestly, if we lived here I would frequent just for this as an entrée and not share it one bit. For mains, we shared the duck leg confit, barley & mushrooms and the black pork neck, shrimp, white beans and coconut milk. Dessert for Lee was the eucalyptus and also the basil mint ice creams and mine, which makes me giddy, was a chocolate soup (was like a think pudding) with peanuts and passion fruit daquiri mousse..topped with pop rocks. The food here is a work of art without being fussed over, imaginative and well executed. Unsure how anyone could fault one aspect at all other than the uncozy atmosphere in the rooms without a fabric chair or couch. Highly recommended !!

Pastries de Bacalhau - the crust was not brown enough. May be longer time. The stuffing was flavorful but it's more the cod taste than the flavored mash potatoes which I prefer. I actually prefer the other local restaurant I tried the night before better. Caldo Verde - The potatoe part of the soup is great. Perfect viscosity but the flavor is not. It wasn't salty enough but more importantly is the flavor of the veggies and the spicy sausage they supposed to use that makes the soup taste different. Grilled giant pawns - The flavor of the prawns is not as intense as expected and hope to be. The squid ink pasta also lacked of flavor. That's disappointing. With the prawns, they should at least use the prawn shell to make sauce for the pastas. The pasta was tasteless, didn't even use enough garlic and olive oil to flavor it up. Seafood rice - Another disappointment. They used fish, small mussels and little bit of shrimp pieces along with some bigger whole shrimps and mussels. However, the rice was lack of the true seafood flavor that made from shell fish. They also added cilantro which overwhelmed the whatever left of seafood flavor. The lemonade was not a sweet lemonade but sour. Fyi. It's not fair we just went to another restaurant in the neighborhood and everything was so much better but people should know.
