This was good pizza - but with the amount of awards this place has honestly I was expecting to be…read moreblown away, which I wasn't. Everything else about the visit was extremely pleasant though. There was a bit of a wait for our table even though we had a reservation, but the folks ahead of us who were at our table were having such a good time that I didn't even mind waiting for them to finish up their drinks. Our server was attentive the entire time which was very much appreciated. There's a cool ambiance about this restaurant -- everyone here (except me!) were dressed very trendy. We started off with a round of caipirinhas which were well made and strong. For pizzas, we went with the caprese and margherita pizzas which were a nice balance. The caprese was topped with fresh arugula and cherry tomatoes which were refreshing. The margherita was everything you'd expect it to be. If you're craving pizza in Lisbon, give this place a try!

The gnocchi has bacon and mushrooms and cognac. Chefs kiss!! If you know about Lisbon then you know the bathrooms are not great . This was the first bathroom all day that was clean, no body fluids and soap. I'm a happy woman. And let me tell you about Harish...he's incredible. My drink was a little sweet so he took it back without me even asking and made sure I was satisfied. I offered to pay for a side of rum but he wanted to remake it. He has worked there for 9 years and I am carb overloaded and completely happy. Run don't walk!!

All of the food was very flavorful and made with the fresh ingredients. Not only was the food great but service was good as well. I would highly recommend! I'd also recommend trying whatever specials they have with Sommelier wine pairings. I'll definitely be back!

But once inside, we were welcomed by a pleasant, English speaking waiter who was attentive and courteous. The menu selection had a lot of pasta options, pizza, and a few meat and seafood dishes. My wife opted for a pizza which was a good crispy thin crust with a selection of toppings that was both interesting and tasty. I went for a pasta that was similar to a longer rigatoni that was listed as a meat and red wine sauce. Hey, I like pasta, meat, and red wine! How could I go wrong?? Turns out I didn't! My entree came out with a yummy dark brown/red sauce (no marinara or tomato in sight) and a ton of tender beef slices that were outstanding! The flavor was really good and unusual. I loved it! I'd go back!! And it's really pretty inexpensive!

They seated me early Ave then announced the kitchen won't open until 7. Having said that, they were very nice and accommodating. They have English menus and English speaking servers. I ordered the berry sangria (rec'd by server), bruschetta, and the saltimbocca with a salad. The food was good to get good - not quite grate. Bruschetta, for instance, the bruschetta hardly had basil and was not seasoned, but the olive oil and tomatoes were lovely. The pork in saltimbocca was a little dry but the sauce was velvety and delicious. I ended with coffee and creme caramel for dessert. The coffee was amazing, which seems to be SOP in Portugal. The caramel (aka flan) was ok and likely not made in house. I saw they have the pasta made in the cheese wheel, but my experiences with that have been underwhelming - it's more show than quality. If that's your jam, may be worth a try. The pizza looked really good. The place itself is cute, tucked into a mall. The tablecloths were a little worn. The staff was attentive and kind. Overall, a pretty good choice.

Plus, my 6-year old just got off our tour bus and needed a bathroom break All of our orders came out in good time and our server was very helpful and friendly. We chatted a bit about his family in California. We ordered two steaks with wine reduction sauce. Very good. One steak was over cooked but it was fine. Clams as appetizer was awesome with the house bread. One order of lasagna and I would give it a 8/10 compared to other restaurants at home. One order of pasta carbonara. It was good but not outstanding. One order of spaghetti bolognese. That one was average. We just arrived from Barcelona a few days before Lisbon and we were missing sangria so we ordered one pitcher. It's not as good as the ones in Barcelona but then again this is not Barcelona. For dessert we ordered 3 ice cream and a tiramisu. The ice cream was over-priced at 8 Euro each. Skip dessert and go get some great pastries or gelato outside around the plaza.i

I had the lasagna and it looked fantastic, it didn't taste quite as good. It kind of acidic, slightly but lacked a lot of flavour sadly. I put lots of cheese on it but is only partially fixed it. We also had a salami pizza and spaghetti boulegnese. Both were ok. Spaghetti was tasty but maybe a little fatty tasting and the pizza was thin crust but not crispy or firm at all. Just alright. We also had the fruit crepes for dessert, they were just ok, not worth having. The ones I had at Josephine up town were miles better. These were the doughy kind of texture which I don't like. Sorry it didn't blow me away as I was hoping so. But I also didn't realise it is smack in the middle of the tourist area, we had spent most of our trip uptown near Alfama and it is way more authentic and real... And way cheaper. I think fish was €50 here, and for a tiny fish. If you go uptown you cms get that for €15 max, and way bigger...
