Very nice restaurant with amazing service and tasty food. Seafood rice is delicious. The cod was a bit boring. Prawn starter was amazing. The waitress was super friendly and upbeat. Prices are normal for area.
Very cozy and delicious food. You will spend like 20€ p.p. This fried shrimp was very tasty and the rice and calamari was well served.
In my opinion it is not great. I’d rate it higher if prices were lower. The fish and cuttlefish was done ok. It was fresh and there was nothing really to complain about apart from the taste which was really boring. The dishes were paired with salad without any dressing so I assume the restaurant owner apparently wants his guests to take turn as cooks and prepare it themselves with only the oil they give out serving. Mind you you pay full price for this experience 😆. As of the staff they were nice but they shared no eagerness or interest in their guests. Mind you I visited minutes after opening and there were really not that many people and still after asking for the bill I had to wait for 10 minutes and after finally asking for the second time I’ve received it. All in all it’s just a tourist cashgrab don’t waste your time with mediocrity for the full price. Meal type Dinner Price per person €30–35 Food: 3 Service: 4 Atmosphere: 5
I have visited this place many times but I don't know if it's changed hands because it's more expensive than before. We had to wait about 45 minutes for the food and we were the only customers. I asked for gluten free and they brought the skewered monkfish and prawns on a bed of 'migas' which is all bread and flour. When I told the waitress she argued with me that I had asked for it. I am celiac and very very sensitive to even cross contamination so obviously wouldn't. They took it back but my impression was that they simply changed plate and gave me the same food, which now was dried up and overcooked and took about 5 minutes to bring back, so definitely not enough time to prepare again freshly. Would not go back again even though I have been going for during the last 7 years. Food: 1 Service: 3 Atmosphere: 1

Great food. Best fish soup I've ever had. Shared the cod rice, cleared the dish, super tasty and moorish. Nice bottle of wine, very affordable. Good service, nice people just lost a star for atmosphere as it was late Feb and empty. Shame. Would go back in a heart beat. Thank you guys!

Amazing food!! The Cod with Rice was the best I’ve ever had. Great service and affordable prices - wasn’tas busy as the two restaurants on either side … not sure why because this place is a HIDDEN GEM!!! Service Dine in Meal type Lunch Price per person €20–25 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 4
Great food and lovely decor. The recommended dessert : "Lambadinha" was amazing. (Show as the front one in the picture). Also many people in the reviews are saying you can't pay by card, but I paid by card today just fine.
Great fish and better Chocolate Mousse. Doesn't take Visa!
Very nice place for lunch - food is very good and the service too Meal type Lunch
Very good place where you can eat seafood for a really very good price. If you come to Aveiro or Costa Nova without tasting local food, you're wrong... you're not at the right place ! So, come and taste the local seafood rice or local desserts, very ....yummy. Enjoy !
