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!

Skip the bread so at to have room for steak and fries. The wine selection is superb. The service amazing but not overly fussy. This is bistro food.

As well as complimentary bread and butter we received a little pot of sardine paste and a round of delicious cheese as well, this is one of the things I love about eating in Portugal! It's important not to fill up too much though as the portions have a tendency to be large, and this was no exception. I ordered to polvo de galinha (roasted octopus) served with potatoes, onions and olives. It was delicious and really tender. Other dishes included bacalhau (salted cod) and picanha (steak). Even my 15 month old was happy to try everything although he wasn't totally taken with the octopus! Mine was so huge I had to get the rest to take away and there was certainly no room for desserts even though the bulging cabinet looked tempting! The staff were really friendly and accommodating of the little one. And the crab and lobster tank was a great distraction for him.

Ahhhh Farta Brutos...my first cod meal in Portugal. Wifey and I did a wine tasting last night and…read moreafterwards we decided to stop at Farta Brutos for dinner (we'd already walked by it 3-4 times. When we stopped to look at the menu the woman acting as hostess and server didn't use any English but convinced us to stop. FARTA BRUTOS, is a tiny place with a LOT of character that's been around for 113 years (as I mentioned above, our waitress spoke zero English so this was a little challenging at first). After our wine tasting I decided to have another taste of red from the Douro region (no, it doesn't really pair well with what I had, but I don't care). It's a crappy photo, but we had an appetizer plate (they're sneaky-they bring it to you THEN tell you if you don't want it they can take it away...we kept it). Olives (for Wifey) and a tuna mixture that didn't seem to have much more than olive oil and finely chopped onions - and it came with some Portuguese bread - I loved it. For our main meals, Wifey had a "fish rice" meal and I had a baked cod dish with potatoes and spinach that had enough garlic on it to keep the vampires away for the rest of the trip. We finished with a chocolate mouse that was nothing like anything I ever had. It was more like a thick frosting...so rich and chocolaty...so good...
