Go for the salted flambeed sea bass and baked bacalhau obviously, followed by a glass of tawny port .

Small, cozy place, be sure to make a reservation ! Amazing Sea Bass in salt, with shrimps in olive oil for an appetizer and Kopke white wine ! Also they serve one of the best olive oils l have tasted!

Fiorella Coto Zevallos

Amazing!!!! Tiny restaurant with superb taste. Has the octopus in rice as main, the shrimps as starter and the apple cake . Delicious!! Best octopus ever! Great selection of house wines and Porto 😋

Shalom Joseph

Robalo baked in salt is perfect. Had this dish 2 times in 1.5 yrs. And it's as good as ever. Starters: clams . Wine : both times asked for a recommendation for a wine with good minerality - was perfect

Clara Eloy

Insane. Beautiful. Tear worthy. I was skeptical when I saw how much people were queuing but holy shit. It was divine. Simple food, done perfectly. I recommend the shrimps , veal , apple in porto.

Fabian Martin

Yes you’re gonna have to wait 1h+ and yes it is worth it. Honestly all the food is incredible. My favorites were the veal , the meringue pie and the shrimps but everything is flawless. 10/10. Must try

Probably the best restaurant I've been in Portugal. The food and the service are amazing. Try the fish on fire. And the deserts . And leave a tip

This is an exceptional, exquisite restaurant . It’s only got 8 tables. The food is absolutely delicious with rich taste & textures, ingredients carefully selected, service is meticulously professional.

The best Portuguese restaurant in the city - the food is exceptionally good, cozy atmosphere and a great service. A very tiny place so advance booking is a must.

Lai van Beek

Really small and cozy place. We enjoyed our dinner here, starting with clams and gambas and we had the salted crusted fish . Take two small ones instead of a big one, just as much and less expensive
