    Fresh seafood and reasonable prices. Settled on a hilly street . Make sure to try the octopus…read moresalad for a real treat . Good service and fresh food make this place worth a try

    The restaurant is away from tourist neighbor. But I suspect its target customers are tourists…read more They play American pop music all night long which is fine with me, but if you are looking for a local experience, this may not what you expected. 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.

    Great, local, authentic. Humble churrasqueira gets it right--no wonder it is packed w Portuguese…read morelocals. Porco Preto "Secreto" is to die for, better than most fancy Lisbon restaurants. Nothing fancy, just hefty portions (a half serving is enough!) of classics.

    Keenly priced sensational event and very, very good food. Price to performance ratio significantly…read moreto the benefit of the performance :D The bar obviously serves surfers and similar laid-back guys ... I had chicken, and my friends slices of sirloin - and we were all delighted... Putting your meal in the middle of the table and sharing it may be fun - as long as you don´t find out that those people sitting at the table with you pretending to be your friends have eaten all your salad :D :D :D One star less just for not very comfortable toilets and especially for the sentence that should be followed by the death penalty: "You can only have a dish the cook is able to make right away, we are closing in 40 minutes"... Well, we had no Portuguese plate or grilled chicken legs. .. What a pity! If their approach had been slightly more obliging - we didn´t really want to spend the winter there, just have something to eat and leave - it would have been perfect :) Cenově úplná atrakce senzace a jídlo velmi, velmi dobré. Poměr cena výkon výrazně ku prospěchu výkonu :D Bar evidentně pro surfaře a podobné pohodáře... Dala jsem si půlku kuřete, kamarádi plátek svíčkové - a hromadné nadšení... Sdílení jídla uprostřed stolu může být sranda - pokud tedy nezjistíte, že ti lidé, co sedí u stolu a tváří se jako přátelé, vám snědli ale úplně všechen salát :D :D :D Hvězda dolů jen za ne úplně komfortní toalety a hlavně za větu, za kterou by měl následovat trest smrti: Můžete si dát jen jídlo, které kuchař stihne hned, za 40 minut zavíráme... No, portugalský talíř ani grilovaná kuřecí stehýnka to nebyla... Škoda! Mírně vstřícnější přístup - my jsme tam vážně nechtěli přezimovat, jen se najíst a jít - a nemělo by to chybu :)
