EN: The waitress treated me very badly, even though the food is not good. Or what happened that the waitress said that I had to speak in Portuguese. Really!? It's my mother's tongue! And they only accept cash, I was only with the card, so I had to leave something, she says that she would leave my glasses, but for her my glasses are not worth 13 euros, because they were not like her glasses, which are from Portugal and mine from Brazil.
PT: Food is not good, the waitress treated me really badly, she said I have to speak in Portuguese. Well, it's my mother tongue. Furthermore, in this establishment they only accept payment in cash, I only had a card, she told me to leave something and go get the money, because I was staying next door, I said I would leave my glasses, she said it wasn't worth 13 euros, only if it was hers, because mine is from Brazil.
ES: The waiter treated me very badly, but the food was not good. What happens when the chamberlain says that I have to speak in Portuguese. Seriously!? It's my mother tongue! They only agreed to pay in cash, I was alone with the card, so I had to leave something, I said I wanted my glasses, but for my glasses it wasn't worth 13 euros, because it wasn't like their glasses, which are from Portugal and las mía de Brasil.

89 euros for dishes of disgusting food! The salmon had no flavor, the Portuguese-style beef and pork with clams were spicy, something I've never eaten, it's far from knowing what Portuguese food is! The owner was rude to us because I criticized the food and she doesn't accept criticism. Typical holiday area restaurant where they know you'll only go there once. We still paid for starters that we didn't eat. Run away!

Simplicity turned into greatness. We had dinner on the terrace, it is a typical Portuguese place without Instagram bullshit or decoration, we are the usual ones. The service, the people and the food….a spectacle, and very good value for money. To repeat (grandma's homemade food)

We sat down to eat on the terrace as there was horrible smoke in the dining room. The waitress came out angry shouting at us in front of all the people there, for sitting at a table and moving it to the right side since there was a barrier, this person is rude, if you are bitter, look for another job that is not in front of the public , you lost two clients much nicer and more respectful than you. I don't eat in this restaurant even if they give it to me as a gift.

The most notable thing is the environment, which is what lowers the score, it has no ventilation and that made our eyes sting from the fumes coming out of the kitchen, the service was very collapsed because there was only one woman serving, even so He did everything he could and was very kind. We ordered the fish and potatoes stew and it was good but they could have put the fish without the bones since it is quite difficult to go one by one being careful not to swallow a bone, the skin of the fish was removed well, the potatoes were just right and the Quantity was good. The cheese we ordered was very delicious, the olives too but the bread didn't seem fresh.

PERFECT!!! We went looking for Portuguese food and found this small and very welcoming place! We ordered mixed tapas with meats and cheeses that were of good quality, we also ate fish stew and fish pasta from the menu that were equally good. I don't understand why there are so many bad comments because the food was actually very good, my wife and I paid €48 with tapas, well served drinks and at the end we ate dessert!! PERFECT

Really tasty !!! Friendly service ?. Price performance okay.
We came here to enjoy a restaurant that presented itself as typical Portuguese, but it is not. We started with a “Portuguese salad” starter. The sound of the microwave in the kitchen should have put us on the trail, but we ended up with ordinary frozen appetizers (meatball, minced meat samosa) that we could clearly have gotten in a supermarket. Keeping a slight hope we wait for what comes next, namely grilled salmon and fried fish of the day. Unfortunately, we ended up with fish barely worthy of a school canteen, with tasteless and soft breading. Having a big appetite, I'm used to finishing my dishes, but this is the first time I've returned a plate that's still half full, it wasn't so good. The only nice thing about our meal was the beer.
In addition to this modest dining experience, we noticed several small insects during our visit, which did not help enhance our experience at this venue.

Only one thing: to flee. This is the first negative review I have written despite a long career as a local guide. I thought I would find a typically Portuguese cooking experience but it was not: we tried a Portuguese starter which was not one but a reheated frozen dish. Despite the noise of the microwave we tried to remain positive but the rest of the dishes were no better: the "day" dishes are absolutely not prepared on site (neither is the breading, frozen school canteen dish at best) , raw vegetables are bland and rancid. I didn't believe the negative comments but I really regret not having listened to them. We clearly paid for whitening and nothing more. It is shameful.
PS: cockroach in the toilet, if the comment above hasn't already convinced you.

We went for lunch today and tried two dishes cataplana and sardines.
The first one was very good and abundant (for me, a single dish for two people). I wouldn't order the sardines again.
Regarding what is typical of Portugal, bread, butter, olives, pâté,... It is not worth it in any case.
Regarding the price, almost €90, but the truth is that we ordered 2 bottles of wine... :)
You can only pay in cash, an important detail that we did not know when we sat down at the table and which later made the process somewhat more complicated.

Without being mean... just NO No flavor. Don't take the mixed tapas plate, nothing is good. It’s a shame not to enjoy good local cuisine on vacation. Oh yes, I only forgot cash payment ?

I researched the hours and days open, taking an Uber with my friend’s who got excited only to see the restaurant was closed! They should update their profile.
Very local. Yummi food. Lovely staff.
