Lookal Mar - Marisqueira — Restaurant in Salga

Let me start off by saying the food is awesome! You can taste how fresh the seafood is. I truly think it was the best octopus I’ve ever had! The staff is lovely- we don’t speak Portuguese but they still tried very hard to understand us and they were always there is you needed another drink or help in general.

My main issue was the bill. The price that one item was listed at when we ordered was mysteriously higher on the bill. They claimed that was always the price but luckily we had the menu page loaded on the phone to prove they changed it while we were dining. Also they give you a bread basket and a few slices of prosciutto when you sit down- we mistakingly thought it was included… it is not. The basket of bread is only 1,300 so no big deal but the prosciutto is 11,000 per plate (three pieces or so). That’s a bit high of a price to not explain it is not included.

So definitely come here! The food is awesome. But make sure you check your bill and don’t eat anything brought to the table unless you’re...

Location is good with a great view of the ocean. Love the openness of the restaurant towards the ocean. The food is fresh and tasty eventhough I wouldn’t say great. Service is great except for a couple of negatives. Most waiters were polite and attentive while one particular waiter was loud and chatty and insisted on a tip several times which is off putting. Finally when I was prepared to pay via my Visa card I was told I had to go to the restaurant next door as their machine doesn’t accept VISA. That was fine but the same person from the restaurant took me there and asked me that the charge will be in Euros. Again it was fine but the conversion rate was incorrect and they asked me to pay 3 dollars more which I refused and paid by cash. The guy told me the conversion into USD and Euro is the same, which it is not. I found this to be unprofessional...

It’s a nice place, great service, the waitresses are very friendly, always ready to serve you, the food it’s great as well, middle class people in terms of prices, I like the idea of virtual Manu, plus you can the pictures of what you getting just in case you I know how the dish looks like, it’s close to perfection, the also cool cook the food right away, you can pick your fish and the prepare and cook for you. I recommend but don’t go there if you have less then 50 thousand kwanzas, 60 it’s enough for two people, go...
