  I came in here for a late lunch one day after a bunch of exploring as it was near a metro stop I was going to meet my wife at later in the afternoon. Seems to cater to business types for lunch, not lots of tourist traffic, at least not when I was there (both times). I was in the mood for cloth napkins and didn't want to run into any more Brits on a Stag weekend. This restaurant delivered on both accounts. In fact it was a refreshing formal find without being stuffy. I did 2 beers, appetizer, main course, dessert, and coffee for just under €40 with a tip. I thought this to be completely reasonable. In fact Lisbon seemed to me to be the most affordable European capital I've visited. I returned another time during my week in Lisbon. Boths meals were superb. Really. The flavor and textures were all first rate. If you're in the area or looking to eat away from downtown, give this place a shot.

  Nice restaurant with a wood fired pizza oven. Booking in advance recommended. Prices are on the high side but the service is good and the food is of a high quality. If you are having pizza consider sharing as they are quite big.

  This was a walk-in (hadn't checked out the place before), but it looked nice and it was close to the hotel. Great experience. We went a bit early so it was mostly empty; by the time we left (after 9pm) it was packed without an empty table to be found. The service was great and the whole staff friendly and welcoming (maybe as we were among the few tables to begin with?) and the food was excellent. We had the octopus appetizer and the black risotto and fried cod. It's not cheap, but it's also not overpriced, which honestly makes it a great find. I would recommend this place.

  We came for late desert and wine on the evening of Thursday Sept 7th and returned tonight on Saturday September 9th mainly because of the great service that we received from Jeison. Jeison made spending our money a pleasure and his smile and charm is endless. A great asset to the team and when we return to this beautiful country from Canada again, we will be staying around the corner and coming more frequently. Great job team.

  Altough it was a safe first aproach with pizza as the lunch choice (repetition of a visit to another of their restaurants) one thing is true...consistency in the quality of the delivery exists!! Another amazing pizza on the table! In the meantime it was possible to scout the place...and congrats! The space is amazing! With a sober decoration, it is for sure a pleasent spot for a meal. The service reveals to be at the same level and it was possible to observe the other italian inspiration plates that seemed tasty... ...And they are! Second visit and good plate execution on the table! At the same level as the pizzas! The desert proves the quality consistency and closes the meal with a very positive note!

  This is the third time in less than a year that I have ordered food from this restaurant with special instructions because I am allergic to tomato sauce and received a pizza with tomato sauce. I absolutely do not recommend this restaurant, they can't even read the basic instructions correctly, they send food that is hazardous to your health and if you call them to complain they are incredibly disrespectful and rude.
