Service left a lot to be desired. 2 rude and unfriendly waiters served us. They only came to the table if we called them several times. We ordered a sea bass for 3 people. Charged per kilo. A kilo already costs an absurd 70 euros. And the bill came with a charge of 91 euros for 1 medium sea bass. Equivalent to 1.3kg. The fish was a maximum of 850g. A steal! The 3 orange juices came in a tiny, very narrow glass. Maximum 200g of juice. They charged 19 euros for the 3 juices. Furthermore, the sea bass and potatoes were completely tasteless. We had to add salt to be able to eat it. Bad experience.

Service at the highest level. The waiter was very attentive. Had lunch indoors, a large restaurant next to the embankment. The coffee is delicious. Fresh, high-quality seafood, well prepared. Satisfied is not the right word. Enjoyed the food, I recommend it 100%. Check for 113 euros. Crab 75 euros. Drinks, fish soup and red fish (25), the prices are worth it.
Kid-friendliness: Many families dined with children, both children and adults love seafood in Portugal.

Good restaurant with magnificent views of the Espinho sea. The quality of the kitchen remains very good. The service remains of good quality, but sometimes a little inattentive... it's a shame.

Definitely the worst restaurant I had the opportunity to visit in Portugal! Very bad service, tasteless and expensive food! I had to drizzle the fish with a lot of olive oil to be able to eat it! I don't recommend it to anyone.

Very well located, but the food and service are far from what was expected. Monkfish rice served with shrimp brings a long hair. When the waiter was called and the case was presented, he simply apologized and took his hair, but did not collect the plate with the food and when presenting the bill he did not bring any discount or cancellation of the value of this dish. Regrettable. Location not recommended.

Amazing foodies, we just ordered what was suggested by Alfredo, and plan on coming back before we go back home. The staff is also amazing. The best foodies we had in Portugal. PS: we have An 18month old by our side and he received so much love from thé staff. This mom's heart Truly melted. Grateful?

We called less than an hour in advance, and were immediately informed that there would be availability, however upon arrival there was some confusion with the distribution of tables, nothing that hadn't been resolved quickly.
When we sat down at the table, we were immediately attended to by a friendly but very lost young woman and a man in his 50s/60s who was extremely rude and disrespectful.
We ordered the clams as a starter (in addition to the courvert that was already on the table when we arrived), and we were extremely disappointed. A small dish came that cost around 35 euros, where most of the clams were half-closed and when we opened them the rotten smell was intense, we didn't eat many, but they didn't ask why either.
When serving the water, the waitress exclaims “I have my hands checked, I can't do it!”, handing us the bottle and turning away.
The main dishes, on the other hand, are the real reason for this criticism, more precisely the service and responses we received in relation to them.
We ordered salmon for 2px and mixed fish for 3px, and when placing the order we asked if it would be possible to change the accompaniments, as not everyone at the table liked the mashed potatoes and sautéed vegetables which were the accompaniments for both dishes, it was -he told us no because the chef had problems in the kitchen and only had those dishes and side dishes, stressing that there were no other options for different dishes and without questioning whether the request was due to food allergies. We accepted and understood, as there were no more options. When we went to the bathroom while preparing the dish, we noticed that on several tables it was possible to see white rice and French fries, side dishes that were denied to us when requested. When serving the dish, we commented that we didn't want the vegetables, and the waiter continued to serve saying “vegetables are good”.
When we were finishing lunch, a table sat next to us, and from the trust with the employees it was obvious that it was usual. The same employee who had previously told us that there were no special or different dishes for the day advised everyone to order a special dish that the chef had made to serve that day, which led us to believe that we were not good enough to eat the special dish. Finally, we didn't eat dessert, as we didn't feel comfortable in the restaurant, but we ordered coffee, which was accompanied by the waitress asking “can I bring the bill?”, after the other employee told her to do so.
Probably the restaurant with the worst service I've ever been to, we paid around 35 euros per person to be mistreated and discriminated against.
I don't recommend it.

The oysters were wonderful. Unfortunately the zappateira wasn't fresh, we like to eat it and know it well, the toasts were served much later upon request. The Zappateira 81€ very high for no fresh fish.
