    I wanted to like this place more. The cute tile walls and ikea furnishings gave a cozy vibe. On a different night I might have liked this restaurant better. I wanted something hearty and it was more on the lighter fare. The vegetarians seemed happy and the salads were vibrant. I was looking forward to my initiation to piri piri Chicken. Sadly any supermarket rotisserie chicken tastes better. a scrawny half chicken on the dry side and Lacked any flavor except for some spiciness. To give the restaurant some credit, the mussels were fresh and the couscous was a nice side dish.

    As soon as we knew we were heading back to Lagos, we agreed to return to Meu Limao. In an area that is heavily populated with 'tourist' cuisine, it's great to find somewhere that does something a touch more authentic - that and I have a soft spot for tapas. We found it easily enough and it has expanded since our last visit. Not inside, but there is at least twice the amount of seating outside, which is reassuring to see; it's always good to know other people agree with you! We decided to sit inside as there were more tables available and were presented our menus. The ordering style has changed - perhaps to avoid any language barriers - as you now mark up what you want to order on a small sheet and hand it back to your waiter/waitress. Easy! On this visit, we had hummus & pitta; piri piri chicken; chicken wings; lentil curry; garlic mushrooms; chickpeas and spinach. Everything came when ready but there were no lengthy gaps between plates. The lentil curry was a personal favourite; after some drinks the night before, I needed the spice it provided. The garlic mushrooms went down very well with the other half, and the piri piri chicken (my only one of the holiday - bad times!) was picked clean. I washed mine down with a homemade lemonade, lovely to see on the menu as sometimes you need a break from regular soft drinks, and we shared a bottle of water. Service was friendly throughout and, despite the new ordering system, we were still checked up on frequently to see how our meal was going. Another memorable meal.

    Very tasty tapas including vegetarian and meat options. More fresh and creative than the usual tourist traps in the area.

    Great food, great service, good price and classy atmosphere. We had the garlic shrimps, bacalhau,…read moreand octopus carpaccio. The best meal we have had since arriving in Portugal a week ago. We took our waiter's recommendation to add the bread to soak up the sauce from garlic shrimp... outstanding. We like the sauce in the octopus carpaccio but I think it can be improved by using larger octopus cubes instead of thin slices (of course it would no longer be "carpaccio"). Per my personal opinion, the octopus didn't add texture nor flavor to the dish. Our waiter Rubio is super friendly. He gave us recommendation for the location to see "the best sunset in the world". Even though it was a cloudy evening, it was still quite spectacular sunset view.

    We couldn't not have asked for better service or food than this! The staff, Fabio and Andre were…read moreexcellent. The chef of this establishment has an excellent vision and it is obvious he knows flavor profiles well, because the combinations made were excellent. They had a menu for Easter that included a soup that was with leeks and green apples that was something I would never think of linking together yet worked so well!! It was really surprising and impressive. They also ran out of one of their staples on the menu, which was a mushroom dish and the chef improvised and made instead a grilled celery root "steak" of a piece of celery o didn't even know was edible!! The texture and flavor was soooo good! So I learned something new too! As far as our starter, we had their house suggestion which consisted of a butter infused with orange and honey that was to die for. It also included a chicken salad that was something light but super tasty and a tuna (they call it pate-we call it salad) that my son couldn't stop eating and was begging for more! Our Main dishes were the pork belly, (which I have never had a better one anywhere in my life), my son had the black linguini with seafood (that was packed with amazing seafood) and my husband had the cod fish with mashed potatoes. My mother in law had the grilled celery root steak. Unfortunately I couldn't try, my sons because I'm allergic to shellfish, but everyone else at the table tried it and said it was amazing. I tried just my husband mashed potatoes and they were better than my own mashed potatoes and everyone that's tried my taters say they're the best-so props to the chef again!! We paired our meal with an excellent wine and the staff suggested another wine to us too for our next visit or to purchase elsewhere. We orders Fabios suggestion of the pork belly, cod and black linguini and couldn't have been happier with what was offered. The restaurant was very cosy in design and we don't feel rushed. Unfortunately, we made a reservation last minute and there was only one table available left for that night which was by the front door, which wasn't the best seating because our party of 4-two sat looking out to the restaurant and street and two at their fridge with aged meat and bar, so 2 people didn't have the best view. So I felt bad for my husband and MIL, but my husband was made aware of this when we made the reservation. What was weird was that our reservation was at 7:30-we arrived at 7:15 and left at 9:30 and the two tables that sat 4 people had a reservation sign on them by the big windows looking outside, but no one sat there the entire time we were there. I wish we could have sat there instead. Maybe next time.
