“ Our hotel recommended this spot, just a short walk away—and I’m glad they did. We were greeted by a friendly staff and promptly seated. It was midweek, mid-day, and the dining room was quiet, offering a relaxed and unhurried atmosphere. I was on a vegan streak that week, so I went with the Mushroom Risotto with Asparagus. The consistency was spot on—creamy, tender, with just the right bite—and the flavor didn’t disappoint. Rich and satisfying without feeling heavy. Now, I have a standing rule: if Crème Brûlée is on the menu, I order it. This one delivered. The caramelized sugar crust had that perfect, glassy snap, giving way to a silky, delicate custard beneath. A satisfying end to a thoughtful meal. The decor added to the charm—tasteful and inviting, with an understated elegance. We lingered, unbothered, enjoying the quiet before check-in at our hotel. Pro tip: Try the wine—or better yet, the sangria. Both are worth raising a glass to. ”
“ We popped in here a couple of nights ago and enjoyed two bowls of different risotto and a couple of local wines. Great service, great food and ambience. ”

“ Didn't quite like the salted cod as there were too many bones in it. The spinach and garlic potatoes were done very well, though. We loved the seafood stew, and the octopus arroz was big enough for 2 pax imo. Please try the seafood stew as it was hearty and yummy!! ”
“ I’ve just had lunch here with my partner, and the food was absolutely delicious. Initially, we were sceptical, as the location made it seem like it might be just another “tourist trap”, but once the food arrived, we realised this was an authentic Portuguese spot. The grilled octopus was both crispy and tender, and the suckling piglet was so beautifully roasted that the skin crackled with each bite, while the meat underneath remained juicy and full of flavour. Highly recommended! ”
