Best food I’ve had in a long time. Period. Every single bite was an absolute taste experience, from traditional to out of the box modern, paired with fantastic wine.
We had the sea vegetable tacos, the rib eye on toast, shrimp with garlic, veal and marrow tartar, grilled cabbage, tempura leek, and the quail with vinegar and rice. Dessert was absolute heaven! You need to try the flan or the cheese cake. Neither are like anything you’ve had before. Try both if you can - you won’t regret it!
The atmosphere relaxed, great staff - very friendly, dedicated, and fun. The food came out super quickly, not much waiting time at all. The prices are on the higher end for Lisbon but for this quality food, not inappropriate. You taste the time they spent preparing it.

The food is umami centric, unusual, delicious.

Highlights: Shrimp with garlic, which comes raw, rather sweet. Tartar, with bone marrow on top, over a sweet brioche. The cabbage is heavy on the almonds, but has a sweetness to it as well that rounds the creamy filling.

Make sure you get the side of bread, because sauces are king. In several dishes, the best part was dipping their homemade sourdough to focus on the flavors. This was especially so I. The saucy Iberian tusk.

The meal can get a bit heavy - we couldn’t manage dessert. I suggest taking it easy and leaving room for the cheesecake. I have tried it in other occasions and there is a moist sourness to it that is worth trying.

What a gem of a place!

Enjoyable service and food. Beautiful decor. Was able to accommodate half portions on even the smaller dishes so that I could sample more of their offerings. Services (English accent speaking guy) was fantastic and offered great recommendations.

The food was amazing and I found it to be a great value for my money. My server asked me a few questions to find out what I like. I took his suggestions on what to order and I was not disappointed. I was traveling alone and the restaurant was really accommodating offering some half portions so I could still try a lot of different dishes. Although the food is fine dining, the ambiance is casual and inviting in the best way. This restaurant is now a must visit for me every time I go to Lisbon!

The food here is fantastic—tasty and flavorful, almost bursting in your mouth! We were really impressed with the flavors. We came for a late lunch, so the restaurant wasn’t too busy, and our food came out very quickly. The waitstaff were attentive and friendly, although they did forget some of our order.

I wish I could give this place five stars, but the prices are a bit high for the portion sizes we received. I also noticed that the ribeye toast (which is a must-try, it tastes incredible!) is smaller compared to past photos in other reviews.

Overall, it’s a great spot with delicious food, but the portion size to price ratio could be improved.
