But finding the right restaurants becomes just a little more of a challenge because of the added dimension that a youngster brings to the table. So to speak. BL Lounge attracted us because other Yelpers noted it was family friendly. Good enough for us! What was there not to like? Nothing. To like! First of all the slightly eclectic purple decor, matched by the super friendly, perfectly attentive waitresses shirts. Nice touch. ......Damn it has been so long since I started this that I have risky then what we actually are. What I do remember is that it was excellent. Foodie food; so if you just happen to be passing through one of my favorite cities, go. You won't regret it.

The octopus was perfectly cooked and the sauce flavors were perfect. My wife had the pork loin with cauliflower/egg scramble. But that name hardly adequate to describe how yummy that was. The pork came on a pile of very soft and fluffy eggs (almost like a souffle) with a hint of cauliflower and red pepper with a hint of spicy. I'd definitely come back

We plan to go back again tomorrow to try new dishes.

All service is done in English by people who cant relate to the plates, to the culture or experience that the region and restaurant used to provide. Trully disapointing. I hope one day this restaurant gets back to his roots and embrances that changes were for worst...this may please some visitors and generations...but than you would need to sacrifice the prices as well...we cant keep paying premium price for low quality... Good luck O Paulo Management...hope it changes but in my view...a place to avoid right now...

The place was empty which worried me a little but was also great for our toddler bc we didn't have to worry about other people and interrupting their meal. All of which wouldn't have mattered bc the waitress and the people were phenomenal. Okay food now.... the octopus and shrimp which my husband and I almost always order were literally the best we've ever had. So good after we had our mains we ordered one of each again. THE BEST, I had the catch of the day and wasn't a fan. My husband had the pork shank and was like butter. It was out of this world good. Order that. . Go here and you won't regret it.

It was hoppin' when we arrived but we snagged an open patio table pretty quickly and were given drinks promply. We made a great choice with the half pitcher of sangria. So good! We opted for red but most tables got white. Glass, half pitcher or large pitcher. On the table upon arrival: sausage, olives, fried fish cakes, bread (so good-well seasoned). Know that these table items are not free like in the US. You are able to tell them "no thanks" to whatever items you don't want and they will take them away with no charge. We kept all items this time since it was our first meal in Lisbon area and we wanted to try new things. We also ordered: Shellfish Mix Platter (Cold shrimp, crab mix dip, au gratin shrimp dip/spread, crab, garlic shrimp). We should have known better with the cheese/seafood combos that this was a gimmicky meal. Most of the items ended up tasting a bit heavy instead of light, flaky, and flavorful like fish can/should be. We did enjoy the garlic shrimp and the crab, but the dips were too heavy for us. Fries-best we've had in Portugal Spoke English. They gave us an English menu upon recognizing our "unique" Portuguese attempts. Note that they take Euros only. No cards. We would go back nut not order the platter.

We were here for the carnival. We have look up yelp and the this restaurant did not disappoint us. We start with local beer and Sangria. Local beer is super bock. It is a light beer. We started with the octopus. It tentacle is section cut in dish with olive oil. It is fun appetizers. We also have the bamboo clam which is call Atlantic jackknife. This clam I have it at Malaysia. Now I see them in Portugal. It is delicious cook with stir fry. It is also delicious. We also have the little neck clams. It is good too. Our entree is the garlic shrimp. The garlic was pan seared to crispy and cook with the shrimp. The aroma is perfect. Last and the best is the season king crab look like massive dungeon crab. The center of the top shell is stuff with crab meat stuffing. The crawl taste like Florida stone crab and sweet. I like my experience here. Highly recommended.

After far too long (we were almost done our wine bottle) I flagged someone who said we needed to order at the front. After that, it was a great experience! You choose what you want from a table of seafood on ice (we did grilled squid for two. The woman showed us the squid, weighed it, went to the back and got another fresh squid when it wasn't enough. Very cool. Others in front of us chose fish and clams from the case that looked incredible). The view of the marina is lovely. Please note - food comes with boiled potatoes (perfectly cooked) and a mixed salad of lettuce, onions, and tomatoes (no dressing, vinegar and olive oil on the side). The squid was cooked perfectly with a lot (a pool) of olive oil (we dipped the potatoes in it), cilantro, and a ton of garlic. Exactly how I like it, but if you don't love garlic, be aware. Ambiance and experience (if you know to order upfront) was awesome. Lots of parking. Enjoy!
