Stopped here on a whim. The grilled octopus was so tender, with a nice char on the outside. That alone made the detour worth it.

Been coming here for years. Their menu del d&iacute;a is solid, you get a proper meal without fuss. Portions are decent, price is fair. It&#39;s just a reliable place when you need one.

The strawberry shortcake was good, but honestly, the portion felt a bit small for the price. I was still a little hungry after finishing it. It&#39;s tasty, just wish there was a bit more of it.

The octopus toasts were a nice surprise. Really enjoyed the fresh, quality ingredients in that dish.

Stopped by for lunch, the owner was super friendly and helped us pick a dish. Got the pasta special, it was solid. Nice vibe, just a bit pricey for the portion.

Stopped by for lunch on a weekday. Place is small, easy to miss from the street. Had the seafood rice &mdash; they made a single portion even though it&rsquo;s usually for two. That was thoughtful. Fish was fresh, rice had good texture. Not cheap but fair for what you get. Service was quick, no complaints. Would go back if I&rsquo;m in the area again.

The portions were really generous for what you pay. I got the grilled fish and it came out hot and fresh, no complaints there. Service was quick too, didn&#39;t have to wait long for anything. Just a solid spot if you want an easy dinner without fuss. Maybe not the coziest seats but fine for a quick meal.

We got there pretty late, almost when the kitchen was closing, and they still took us in. I had the grilled octopus and a glass of vinho verde&mdash;the wine was a solid match, nothing fancy but did the job. Food was decent, nicely plated. Price felt about right for the area. Service was quick, probably because they wanted to go home. 😄

The room really is beautiful, tables nicely set, felt comfortable right away. We had a meat dish that was properly done, well seasoned, big portion too. Waiter checked on us just enough, not hovering. Price felt fair for what you get. Solid spot.

Stopped here for lunch after walking along the river. View of the bridge is solid, that&#39;s the main draw. Had a vegetarian dish that was better than expected, decent mix on the menu. Service was friendly enough, no complaints. Prices are fair for the location. Wouldn&#39;t go out of my way, but if you&#39;re in the area it does the job.

Reasonable prices for Lisbon. Got the bread with olives, sausage with egg and fries, plus a coffee &mdash; &euro;22.60 total. Solid spot if you&#39;re just hungry and don&#39;t wanna overthink it. Nothing fancy but it did the job.

Owner stopped us from over-ordering. Honest recommendations, not upselling. Felt like a friend.

The chocolate mousse here is legit&mdash;you can tell they use real chocolate. Prices are fair for what you get. Staff were on top of things too.

Lots of choices at the buffet, all tasted fresh and properly seasoned. The robot server was a fun touch, kept things moving. Service was quick and polite. A solid option if you&#39;re looking for variety.

Grilled octopus and scallops were spot on. The eggplant toast was a nice surprise to share with friends!

BEST MEAT IN TOWN! And they had GLUTEN FREE food as well. We wanted to go to another place which was recommended to us, but that place was closed. Everything happens for a reason, so we ended up in this gem, which we went back to twice! To start we had teque&ntilde;os (cheese filled dough) and tostones (Gluten Free). As a main we had Galician entrec&ocirc;te (we like it medium-rare) which was really really one of the best meats I have eaten in my life and a huge pork chop (from chestnut feeded pork) which was just as tasty, juicy and tender! And we had a very good bottle of red wine along with it. As a desert we got a GF Cheesecake in a jar... just D-E-Licious! We definitely recommend this place 100% !

Been coming here for years. Their seasonal mushroom dish is simple, just fresh-picked and cooked right. My husband, who eats everything, enjoyed his meal too. Good to see a place that gets the basics right.

Solid tapas for the price. Tuna belly with piquillo peppers was good, octopus with cheese also decent. Portions are reasonable. Service was efficient. Nothing fancy, but a reliable spot for a quick business lunch near the office.

Quick lunch spot. Scallops and cod carpaccio were fresh, solid for the price. Had it with a cold Albari&ntilde;o. Got my order in 10 minutes, which is key for me.

The local white wine was a great match for the seafood. Really enjoyed it.

The owner is super friendly and funny, which really made the vibe here. The food was good and looked nice on the plate. Just be prepared for things to move at a relaxed pace&mdash;service wasn&#39;t the quickest.

The octopus pizza was really good, crispy crust and tender octopus. Service was friendly, but we did wait a while for our check as the terrace filled up. Still, a nice, relaxed meal.

The grilled razor clams were the standout. Incredibly fresh, cooked just right with a smoky char. The texture was perfect, not rubbery at all. That&#39;s the kind of freshness you want from a place by the port. The seafood salad was good, but those clams are what I&#39;ll remember.
