The seating area is tight so you will be squeezing between other diners. If you can get past this small condition you will love it. Everyone was friendly and enjoying their food. The service was friendly and quick. We ordered grilled cod fish with potato and veggies and the goat stew daily special. The cod fish meat was so tender and delicate. Very delicious and melts in your mouth. Goat stew was like home cooked meal. You can taste the love and authentic flavours. We also ordered the dry cured ham which went perfectly with the fresh bread they served. The coffee was ok but nothing to write home about. The red wine was great and we finished the half bottle with ease. We will definitely come back and try some other dishes as we love to support the small local restaurant owners. Great food with unbeatable prices.

All spectacular! My husband had the chickpea lamb stew which he thought was spectacular then he had the lamb with vegetables baked in a lavash and said it might be one of the best lamb dishes he's ever had. The menu is great because almost all the dishes have a photo with explanation. We had a wonderful wine pairing, the bottle was recommended by the owner and chef who came out to say hello. After touring the Calouste Gulbenkian Foundation, it was a perfect dinner to end a wonderful day.

Given the location I was definitely worried about tourist trap vibes but this place didn't give me any of that sense at all. Nothing fancy and the menu was pretty straightforward. The ambiance inside was nice and very relaxing. The fact it was also slightly off the main drag and not in the middle of the throngs of tourists (but within a very short walking distance) was also nice. It's a good place to stop by if you're hankering for a nice lunch in between your shopping or touring escapades.

Cool neighborhood. For the future, I'd randomly walk around and follow the locals for a chance at good food.

The ambiance here is a solid 5 and reason alone to come here!!…read more The staff is great too. We had two waiter's and they could not have been nicer and attentive. The food: my dish of cod and chick peas was amazing. At first glance, I didn't think the fish was cooked all the way through, but it was perfect. Flaky, buttery and salty. My son really enjoyed his food and dessert. My husband on the other hand wasn't crazy about his lamb. He said it didn't taste like lamb, it had a peculiar taste to it and he didn't think it was a lamb, but maybe a kid which has a completely different taste. I am not a fan of lamb, and I did try it too, and have to admit it's funkier then I have tasted in the past. At the end, my husband said it was the best tasting €40 something tasting potatoes (which came with the dish). When the guy came over to clear the table (not our waiters) he asked how was everything and my husband told him the better lamb was not my favorite or maybe something like, I've had better. He then asked what he meant by it, and my husband told him, I don't think that was lamb-to which he shrugged and walked away with the dishes. Ok?? So, when our waiter came and asked for anything else like dessert or coffee there was no mention of-hey they told me you didn't like the lamb, nor did my husband mention it again, because once said should have been enough. Well, we got dessert paid and left. Aside from that, all was pretty good.
