Service was friendly but could felt similar to the service you get in many tourist restaurants and the idea of American tipping seems to be taking root.

The food across the board was excellent--every dish we tried was flavorful, well-prepared, and felt thoughtfully put together. You can tell there's real intention behind both the menu and execution. What really elevated the experience, though, was our waiter, Bernardo. He brought incredible energy to the table--full of personality, engaging, and genuinely fun to interact with. At the same time, his service was top-notch: attentive without being overbearing, helpful with recommendations, and clearly passionate about what he does. Great food is one thing, but when you pair it with service like that, it turns into a memorable experience. Highly recommend--and if you get Bernardo, you're in for a great time.

I had read in Yelp that lines could be long, but we arrived early. They have a little red rope at the door where they explain the rules. The interior is kind of eclectic. They have wines at three price points, we got a really nice bottle of red called Pops reserve. For the tapas, we ordered the assorted cheeses, octopus risotto, duck breast with chips (not normally on the menu), and ceviche. All were superb. We started with the duck and ceviche. The duck was braised perfectly and seasoned well, wonderful. Then the ceviche had swordfish and tuna. I am not normally a sword fan, but this was very tasty. Next up were the cheese and risotto. The risotto was incredible, buttery and delicious. The cheese plate had 5 cheeses of different intensity. All were great, particularly the goat ones. It came with a pumpkin jam which I had never had before, but was very good. I definitely recommend this place

Everything we tried was perfection. All dishes were beautifully presented and delicious. The service was friendly, and relaxed. The owner and server were pleased to teach us a bit about the local food scene, Portuguese wine, etc.which we appreciated since this was our first night in the area. We had a combo starter plate which was amazing. In particular, we loved the fried chicken (served with a cocktail!) and the oxtail balls. The fish we had was amazingly fresh and perfectly cooked.

We had 2 dishes and ordered sangria and beer. Their food were just amazing. I mean, grilled sardines served with olive oil and balsamic vinegar. It elevated the taste. I had their shrimp risotto. Also very good. Love the fact that it's just risotto, shrimp and a good amount of sauce. So good. Yesterday we ate elsewhere and they had beans in my risotto.

I ordered the tuna ceviche (tuna on crostini), fried dover risotto, and the passion fruit cheesecake. The tuna appetizer was light and refreshing. My risotto was a little undercooked but the lemony flavor was on point and the fried dover was tender and tasty. The dover was definitely on the salty side. The highlight was the cheesecake. It did not taste anything like American cheesecake and was the best dessert I've ever had!!! It was light and fluffy and the passionfruit sauce was a lovely contrast. I would come back again just for the dessert. The white wine was also excellent but I feel like all the wine in Portugal is amazing!
