The tasting menu is beautiful because it covers all the different taste and flavor combinations from the sea and from land. And it was really nice to have fresh fruit at the end of my meal to get a boost of antioxidants as I've been walking 20,000 steps and pushing myself every day while I've been here to enjoy the the cobblestone pathways. Every moment was lovely and I can't wait to come back. They said they start a new menu tomorrow... I'm sure it will be epic!! I'll be coming again with friends this week to try it out.

So, it's got a great outside, covered terrace with a good view in both directions. Watch the fishermen in their motorboats. As for the food, try one of the two daily specials which is five euros.

Wish we could stay longer, but our lodging is still ahead!

We ordered a few tapas to share: croquets de alheira and croquets de codfish. Both were so good! We loved it. The star of the show though was the pork neck tacos! They were so delicious! So much flavor and perfect. I got the lemonade and it was just okay. Nothing special. Overall, would 100% recommend this place! Make a reservation if you can but if you can't, would still try to stop by!

Definitely recommend making a reservation, I found it impressive that the hostess's reservation system was essentially a notebook and pen in this digital age. We did not see much of our waiter, since the restaurant was extremely busy and filled up with diners. Standouts: 1. Razor clams - I'll always get these if I see it on the menu. Cooked in this incredible garlic sauce. 2. Fish and seafood cataplana - delicious, tomato-forward seafood stew; I liked the version that we had the night before more which came with rice and was more filling. But this was basically a never-ending bowl of fish, clams, mussels, and shrimp. Add to that the fact that the restaurant like most in Porto did not have A/C and I emerged feeling like I had been sitting in a sauna. Skipped dessert; I had my eye on the Weeel! froyo truck parked outside. One more nit - the metal chairs are not comfortable at all for sitting a long time in.

Honestly, I am going to keep the menu in my mind and re create the sandies & salads when possible. Cash, no longer is a lunch special offered in case you read some old reviews.
