Fantastic seafood meal. Run by a husband and wife duo, serving up hearty and delicious seafood offerings. It is a small eatery with limited seating so it would be ideal to make a reservation before hand (although I managed to get a table for 2 on a Thursday evening) so YMMV.

Ordered an octopus rice and a grilled grouper, both were excellent and extremely delicious. Needless to say, the plates were polished at the end 😋. In addition to that, 2 glasses of wine and a sweet tart for dessert set myself back ~€47 for a party of 2.

5/5.

Probably the best meal we had in Portugal so far. The owner was super friendly and inviting, we finished our tour earlier than expected so we got there before it was even open. The owner saw us outside wondering around and he asked us if we wanted to go wait inside while they get ready.
The fish was super fresh and the octopus rice was done to perfection. Highly recommend it

Please take note the dinner starts at 730pm. Call in and reserve seats. The place was so popular. When we visited there on Monday, there was a queue. Order the "fish shrimp rice", one of the best dishes we had in Portugal.

The restaurant is a small family shop, owner is a nice old man and his wife is the chef. When we dined there, the atmosphere was so good. It felt like visiting grand parents' house. The owner was warm and humerous, and took care of every guest. Very enjoyable and memorable dining experience.

I was looking for a good restaurant to eat with my friends and this place came highly recommended by various websites. To my surprise it was only 3 minutes away walking from the place we were staying at. I called and booked a table and in half an hour later we were there. We were met by the friendliest, kindest and nicest man. The restaurant is owned by him and his wife (who is the cook) and the place itself has a really warm feeling to it. (Like you are at someone's home). The portions were huge and the food was absolutely delicious. We couldn't finish them, but we left some space for desserts. You MUST try the chocolate and orange cake (if available), because it is out of this world. We had so much fun communicating with the owner, he kept making jokes and kept us entertained the whole time. We wish him and his wife a lot of health, so they keep making people happy! Thank you!

Fantastic food! Fresh clam, squid and prawns! The steak wrapped with parma ham was tendered. This is a very local restaurant with only a few tables and so please book a table in advance if you can. The owner is friendly and humorous and very accommodating.

Lovely family restaurant. Amazing food and friendly owner. Ordered octopus rice (tomato based sauce) and grilled grouper. Super delicious. Lots of wine. Homemade dessert. 100% recommended

Super friendly restaurant with happy owner. Food is good, a little on the salty side, but our guess is that's Portuguese cooking in general. Tuna and sea bass were perfectly cooked. Came back and ordered garoupa. Perfectly grilled. Best fish I have had in Lisbon so far.

This was the best meal we have had in Portugal so far! A lovely restaurant, led by a family with extremely good quality food and fantastic price-quality ratio. We left empty plates very soon because the food was delicious. The owner served the food and spoke to us, he was a really lovely man. If you play chess, he may play with you! We could not recommend more!

An authentic restaurant with very warm, friendly staff. The fish is fresh and the prices are very reasonable. We ordered the sardines and grilled sea bass (on the coals). Meals with drinks were about 20 euro. A hidden gem in a local neighbourhood.

Run by a couple, wife is the Chef while husband serves. Food is very tasty, homely; makes you miss home. 😋 👍

Quaint, simple restaurant with simple but good food. I odered the tuna steak! Fish was very fresh. Owner was very friendly too. Highly recommend it. Tuna was on the salty side though. Other grilled fish was very well done, fresh and well cooked. Ordered the clams too, the soup at the bottom was to die for.

Like the atmosphere....the restaurant is small but provide a very intimate feeling. Food is good but a bit too salty for Asian. Service is good but slow ...need to reserve enough time to enjoy the food here. Price is normal...each dish about 10-20 euro

amazing food! Had the best sea bass and veal steak topped with parma ham. So simple but the taste is just amazing. The owner has a great sense of humour and made our little lunch stop such a memorable one. Thank you for cooking such amazing food!

I can tell that if you visit Lisbon this restaurant is a must place to go to! I ate the best salmon there in my whole life. Apart from the food the restaurant owner takes his time for each customer and gives you a comfortable feeling. If I ever go back to Lisbon this place is on the top of my list. Thank you! :)

The sea bass grilled is super nice!! Fresh fodd and seasonings fit the fish so well. Friendly service and the rice pudding for the dessert is a bonus. Will definitely come back :)

It took us a while to get here from the city center, but it was worth it. Very friendly owner, who speaks English and is a big fan of Chess game. The best Octopus soup of all that we tried in Lissabon. They also have a list of fish, which is available and can be grilled for you. Credit cards e.g. Visa are accepted here. The place is not huge, I'd suggest to reserve to be on a safe side. Overall, very good experience and would definitely come back.

I will never forget this place where the host is so friendly and the cuisine so tasty. It feels like you are on a visit to your lovely Portuguese uncle's place!

Nice meal in Lisbon!! It’s a cozy place and serving very nice food😍The octopus rice was really tasty and fish as well!! Everything is perfect 😋

Hesitant to write a review as this is truly a "best kept secret". Best food in Lisbon that we experienced. The waiter was so charming. And the small, compact atmosphere led to great conversations between tables. One in a million restaurant. Thank you so much!

I had a very delicious lunch and dinner in this restaurant :) the owner is so friendly and his wife definitely knows how to cook. You should try dorada and chocolate orange cake. The cheese and the bread was also really delicious. Next time when I'll be in Lisbon I definitely will visit this restaurant again.
