Pastries de Bacalhau - the crust was not brown enough. May be longer time. The stuffing was flavorful but it's more the cod taste than the flavored mash potatoes which I prefer. I actually prefer the other local restaurant I tried the night before better. Caldo Verde - The potatoe part of the soup is great. Perfect viscosity but the flavor is not. It wasn't salty enough but more importantly is the flavor of the veggies and the spicy sausage they supposed to use that makes the soup taste different. Grilled giant pawns - The flavor of the prawns is not as intense as expected and hope to be. The squid ink pasta also lacked of flavor. That's disappointing. With the prawns, they should at least use the prawn shell to make sauce for the pastas. The pasta was tasteless, didn't even use enough garlic and olive oil to flavor it up. Seafood rice - Another disappointment. They used fish, small mussels and little bit of shrimp pieces along with some bigger whole shrimps and mussels. However, the rice was lack of the true seafood flavor that made from shell fish. They also added cilantro which overwhelmed the whatever left of seafood flavor. The lemonade was not a sweet lemonade but sour. Fyi. It's not fair we just went to another restaurant in the neighborhood and everything was so much better but people should know.

There is a small patio seating area and then about 10 tables or so inside the inviting space. It is full of fish decor and carved wooden chairs and tables. A really charming mom and pop spot. At 7-ish PM were immediately greeted and seated. Given how popular the place supposedly was with locals, we were surprised by so few tables occupied. However, by the time we left a little after 8, the place was full. To our table, they immediately brought bread and a plate of cheeses, sardine pate, and butter. Know that you must pay for all of these and can hand back any items you do not plan to consume and not get charged. We handed back the plate with all but the butter and kept the bread. This was a solid choice and tasty bread. We ordered a curried shrimp stew and a pepper steak with a side of vegetables. The vegetables were a flat Italian green bean and they were expertly sautéed in garlic and butter. The curry was delicious with a seemingly endless amount of shrimp (served over white rice). It cost around 12 euros. The pepper steak was covered in a scrumptious brown sauce and served with both white rice and steak fries and a random few slices of tomatoes. The steak itself was a much thinner cut than they give in the US but was cooked well and was very tender. I was able to eat my portion with a butter knife! My husband and I enjoyed dipping the fries into the steak sauce. If you eat here, plan to pay with euros or a Visa or Mastercard. We had not yet exchanged currency to Euros and my typical travel Amex was giving them issues. It was awkward (but they were very kind and patient as we sought out an ATM). Would recommend. Most locals seemed to be ordering the fried or grilled fish, FYI.

For many reasons other than just their fresh, delicious foods but the experience overall is stellar. It is a restaurant on a boat that's docked which means you can get there by car or by boat. In my case I went there by boat and I believe the only boating company allowed to dock there at the moment is Lisbon Private Tours and Transfers in Lisbon, Portugal (I will be adding and writing a review on them as well soon). From the moment of our arrival we were met by the owner and chef who is not only a gracious host but an incredible cook. The boat/restaurant has 3 levels. First level is the entrance level with lavatories and some seating and tables. The second level is their main dining room which is covered by surrounded by windows and is absolutely beautiful. The third level is the roof top dining area which provides spectacular views which are even more amazing at sunset. There we watched the sunset while having cocktails. We then moved to the second floor level for a spectacular meal chosen and prepared by the owner, starting from appetizers to fish entree followed by meat entree and finished off by a platter of various desserts. Everything tasted fresh and was cooked to perfection. My colleagues and I were in awe not only for the delicious taste of the food but the venue, presentation and the professional and welcoming staff. It was an experience I will always remember and will make sure to return and share the experience with as many people as I can. I urge anyone traveling in Lisbon to make this a stop in their list of places to visit. Bom apetite!
