The basement setting with all those wine bottles and tableware is really charming. Food was solid too.

Grilled sardines were spot on, fresh and cooked just right. Place gets busy though, so be ready to wait a bit. Simple spot, no fuss, good food.

Been coming here for a while now, and the quality just stays consistent. Had the grilled fish again last night, still cooked perfectly. Price is fair for what you get, not cheap but you&#39;re not getting ripped off either. Place gets busy around 8, so come a bit earlier if you want a quiet table.

Stopped by for a coffee and ended up staying longer than planned. The place was quiet, which I appreciated. Service was quick and the guy working was nice. My cappuccino was decent, nothing crazy, but the price felt right for what you get. I&#39;d come back if I&#39;m in the area and need a break.

The seafood rice had a real kick to it &mdash; way spicier than I expected. The seafood portion was generous though. Just wish the chairs were a bit more comfortable.

The sushi looked gorgeous, and the fish was definitely fresh. Some of the fusion rolls were a miss though. Service felt a bit all over the place, we were kinda rushed at the end. Decent, but pricey for what it is.

Nice restaurant and very attentive staff, who wanted to be sure we enjoyed our food at Courage. We ordered the mushroom risotto and traditional cod and potatoes dish. Overall a very lovely dining experience!

The seafood rice here was seriously good &mdash; rich broth, loads of fresh stuff in it. I went for the grilled sardines first and honestly could&#39;ve stopped there. Portion size caught me off guard, in a good way. Left full and happy. Just wish I had more room to try the rest of the menu.

The location right on the water enhances the dining experience, although the wait times could be improved.

The cod &agrave; Lagareiro here was spot on. Properly cooked, lots of garlic and olive oil, just like it should be. Place is a bit out of the way from the tourist spots, but that&#39;s fine by me. Been meaning to try it for a while, finally did. I&#39;d go back.

The charcoal grill smell hits you right when you walk in, in a good way. Took my order to go and it was packed up neatly, no mess.

Stopped by for lunch and got the veal&mdash;proper tender, decent sides. Portion was fair for what we paid. Nothing fancy, but it hit the spot.

Grilled fish was solid, parrilhada de peixe came out fresh and well seasoned. Service actually paid attention, which is rare around here.

Solid lunch spot, and the daily special at &euro;12.50 was fair. Their house wine paired nicely with it.

The service was good. They came to our table as soon as we were seated. The waiter explained the dishes. The food was excellent. We shared a squid, calamari which was delicious. Several of us had prawns and two of us had grilled fish. All the meals were great. We would definitely come back if we were staying longer in this area.

Right at the start of the umbrella street, so you can&#39;t miss it. Pastries were decent, nothing crazy, but the price was fair for what you get. Stopped in for a quick snack and it did the job. Service was friendly enough. Fine for a rest, just don&#39;t expect a mind-blowing dessert.

Small family spot, nothing fancy. Had the grilled fish and it was cooked properly, simple but tasty. Wine list has some nice smaller producers. Prices felt fair for what you get.

The mushroom risotto was creamy and really well done. Meat was tender too. Nice spot for a relaxed dinner if you&#39;re into simple, fresh flavors.
