The atmosphere of the restaurant and service was kind but the experience was mixed because of the bill that was a bit unexpectedly high - the tables had some bread, mayonnaise based dipping sauce and olives which added 16,70€ on top of the bill. That’s a bit too much for a dip and it was already used by customers before and gave us the feeling of a tourist trap. Half of the 39€ Bacalhau fish was tasting okay but the other half was extremely chewy, dry and impossible to eat. For the price we would have expected more. Food: 3 Service: 4 Atmosphere: 4

I don't understand the high reviews, this place is a tourist trap. High prices for small portions (relative to other restaurants in the area) and mediocre quality. Bacalhau fritters barely had any bacalhau, mostly batter. And the shrimp were not fresh (mushy meat, shell sticking to the meat).

Beautiful Restaurant on the street corner. Fish will be served from fresh oven outside. It tastes amazing. We had sardines and fried codfish. Service was great and friendly and the serving processed really fast. Good place to eat some tasty fish

An Amazing restaurant. Premium service and exceptional food. Just off the main streets in Matosinohs. Prices are absolutely in line with what you get (no more no less). Personnel is friendly and speak English. Had one of the best fish soup (fish chowder) since several years. Sardines, although frozen (sigh), were fried to perfection in clean oil. If I've to be picky, the only thing that was not perfect was the octopus, nor cooked on a charcoal grill but on - probably - gas plate not cleaned enough that left a tiny bit of bitter taste. Clean, though small toilets inside, where a much bigger restaurant room is awaiting you. So don't judge the restaurant just from the exterior. Absolutely recommend for your fish extravaganza in Portugal.

Had a great time at this restaurant. Had a large prawn, clams and sea bream. Everything was grilled to perfection! Prices were reasonable and service was great. There are a good number of restaurants within this stretch of the city all next to the pier where the fishing boats dock. We are very happy we found this one. Would recommend to anyone in the area.

great fresh food (sea bass and sardines) cooked the right way. simply grilled olive oil salt and lemon. ceviche was also fresh but i would wait a while till the olive oil and vinegar "cooks" it just right. staff were very professional. would love to go back and try some more.

This is a little gem. Portions are huge, the service is outstanding and the fish super fresh. The lovely staff go above and beyond to make sure you experience is excellent. We had fried octopus and a grilled fish, everything is freshly cooked while you sit in there and their potatoes are to die for! Fantastic experience, every time we go to Porto this is our place for lunch :) well done guys, see you next time!
