The manager/owners and waiters are extremely helpful and kind to me. I feel taken care of eating here. The restaurant is clean, seating area and decoration are nice. The fish is a bit salty for my taste, but salad, wine and desert - Portuguese cookie (recommended to me) and service are all great. I was full and happy after my time eating here. Thank you!!!

We biked here from the center of town to check out Costa Nova and found this lunch spot. It did not disappoint. At first the prices seemed steep for Portugal, but I thought it was justified. We ordered a mixed seafood (it's their house specialty) for two people (€45) and a half bottle of Chardonnay (€6) to help cool off. The seafood was incredibly flavorful and we'll cooked. And the portion was huge. We each got 2.5 rounds to finish this huge bowl of seafood. It reminded me of Bouillabaisse (I've only tried them in California) and this is by far the best I've had. Friendly staff and a nice spot. Highly recommend!
ordered squid skewer and codfish
everything on the plate was so delicious, especially the garlic flakes on the fish and the stir-fried veggie thing under the skewer
Best Bacalhau (cod fish) I ever had. It was so tasty, cooked with loads of olive oil and postatos. I simply can’t say how tasty it was.
Also the desert Natas do ceu was super delicious! Service is very slow cause they cook everything from scratch to make it as fresh as possible. So be patient cause the waiting is worth. The lady from the cashier, I think she is the manager was very helpful, most of staff were also very friendly. Just taking off one start cause one gentleman that serves the table was in a bad mood, hopefully was a once-off thing.. also prices are a bit high.
But on the average the experience was very positive.

Bad experience.
Service was bad and the food even worst.
We had an Arroz de Marisco and the rise was overcooked and the fish was not good. Not tasty at all.
Not recommended
