Very close to Hotel Anjo Azul, a small but excellent restaurant. The food is excellent maybe a little expensive but worth it. Give it a try. The olive oil pudding was unique for us and we loved it

After a long day at a conference, we searched for an excellent place to have dinner. We found a very beautiful Portuguese restaurant. The menu has a small number of dishes but is very diverse! The food was so delicious. We highly recommend it, and it made our first impression of Portuguese food great!

The place had a cosy, elegant vibe, and the staff was professional and friendly.

Made us a great memory. Thank you.

Such a cozy restaurant and friendly waiters  and perfect service.
We reserved in advance but since it was a Monday was not that busy. We sat outside and the heating works very well.
We had a delicious octopus and the perfect paired rose wine. Creme brûlée at desert.
Definitely recommend.
