We are whitebread Americans visiting Portugal, so there were some things that were a little bit hard to communicate during our meal here (which isn't the fault of the woman who served us, as presumably she is more fluent in two other languages instead of English, and that makes perfect sense).
I'm not deducting any stars for the communication issues- but they are worth mentioning just in case anyone else would find the info useful when ordering.
When you order from the menu, you write down the number of the item you want, and then if you want multiples of that item, indicate how many you want. I made an assumption that not writing x2 or x4 next to my order meant that I only wanted one of that thing.
For example, the spring rolls. They are listed on the menu as $1.
I assumed it was $1 per spring roll, and I only wrote ONE down on our order pad. But we got 5. So I thought maybe one order comes with 5 for $1, and since they are quite small, didn't seem unreasonable. But when we got the check, I think we were charged $5. Not a huge issue, but something to clarify if needed before you place an order.
Additionally, our spring rolls were cold on the inside, which probably meant they were frozen. They heated them back up for us and they were fine, but not overly delicious.
Our other dishes were great- pan fried dumplings, and a pork and chicken dish plus fried rice. All the prices were affordable and food was tasty. read more
