I'm…read moreglad we followed him the restaurant (would have had trouble finding it otherwise) and we really appreciated this break from the typical Portuguese food. The tandoori chicken was really good ( just beware that the four pieces you get are all very small) still as part of the lunch special it was a filling meal. We also had chicken tikka masala. The waiter checked if we wanted cream and also the spice level. We opted for yes on the cream and no on spiciness - I think I would have been better otherwise but I appreciate that they asked and gave us what we ordered.

Had an amazing meal here. They have a great lunch specials which include a samosa (if that's one of…read morethe specials you pick) naan, rice, your main dish and a drink for a really affordable price. The flavors are spot on. The food is freshly prepared. The ambiance is nice, but it's a bit tucked away and difficult to find, if you don't follow their signs. A really added bonus, is they don't close after lunch hours like the rest of the Portuguese restaurants around the area. So, if you're tired of walking all the palaces, this is a nice place to put your feet up.

Unfortunately , it was too cold to eat outside so we ate inside. Our waitress was super friendly and helpful given our lack of Portuguese skills. I ordered the grilled sardines, which were good but a real challenge to eat. I wanted to try them while in Portugal. My wife got the pasta carbonara, which was good though the one we make is better. Overall a decent experience nothing great.

So even we got a bit ripped up, we would feel it s fine and it was part of traveling experience and something to look back and laughable. Lol! The octopus was good, fresh n flavorful.

Once admitted we were seated immediately as the restaurant was only about half full. The menu was quite simple with just half a dozen appetizers and their main dish, seafood rice served for 1 or 2 people. The rice took about half an hour to prepare. It was delivered still bubbling a bit. The red tomato based soup was full of rice, mussels (some in the half shell), whole shrimp and not quite half a crab. The restaurant provided a shell cracker but the tiny forks for removing the crab meat from the leg would've been quite helpful. The rich tomato soup was the best seafood rice from our trip. We were also given a bottle of piri piri sauce and used about 4-5 drops at a time to add a little bit of heat and flavors to the seafood rice.

I was told by multiple friends, I must try their seafood rice and this place was well known for it…read more We did make a dinner reservation and would recommend it as this place gets packed. (FYI: lots of tourists) They only have 1 main which is their signature dish, the seafood rice. The rice is cooked in a seafood broth with a good mixture of shellfish like mussels, crab and shrimp. You can add lobster at an extra charge. This dish reminds me of paella, but with more soup? We didn't really get any appetizers but they do have a small selection if you want to add more to your meal. We had 3 people and ordered one main for the table. My husband is not the biggest seafood person so it was enough but if you have big eaters, then consider getting apps. The place is kinda small and cozy but not overly crammed together. The staff was efficient and warned me ahead of time how long it would take to make the dish.

Colina is open, so we decided to try it. It is walking distance from our hotel, it was very bright inside, and friendly staff. We were greeted immediately and offered two seat options. Food: ordered hake and sea bass. The hake was interesting served with fish biting its own tale and might freak some people out. The sea bass was served whole filleted. The fish were good but the sides were inedible. The rice was watery and tasted like can baked beans were added. The potatoes were cold and the broccoli was overcooked and cold. Service: young ladies were very nice.

Shrimp looked over cooked as well. To add insult to the experience they were showing videos on the tv showing fresh cooked vegetables that looked great. Definitely not what we got. Complained to the waiter and all we got was a lame apology saying the chef made it with fresh veggies. They can't tell the difference from what the video showed to what was delivered. My shrimp avocado and orange salad was much better. However they failed to bring the dressing for it until I told them the salad was dry. Definitely are not paying attention to the details and they were not busy at all.

I didn't realize the Portuguese eat a little bit later at night. It felt like I was in my own private restaurant so that was super funny to think about. Otherwise, though it was such a vibe, it has such a cute interior with paintings on the wall a Christmas tree on the side and a more modern wooden finish. Bathroom is also located on the first floor and it's very clean. Service was fantastic. My waiter, Nabil, was so friendly. He chatted with me and told me a little bit about Portugal. English was not a problem for him and I had no trouble as an English tourist. Service was fast, and he checked in with me every couple minutes. I had gone here as a recommendation from a coworker, and it was fantastic. The duck confit was cooked so tender and served with rice and spinach. The rice tasted cheesy and rich and it was also perfectly balanced with the meal. I highly recommend that as a dish! Otherwise, though, I ordered the green wine and it was pretty good. In Lisbon, I was told to try the green wine because it's from a specific region. It tastes kinda like a Chardonnay.
