Went on a Friday for lunch - a great start to the weekend. Enjoyed an array of starters that didn’t disappoint. Bolo de caco and broa were fresh and delicious. Chorizo was served crispy and paired well with the breads. Their carpaccio was extremely tender. The only minor knack was that the tempura shrimp was slightly salty, but still very fresh and overall enjoyable. Mains consisted of a filet espetada, a Portuguese alheira and their popular franguinho. Chicken had a crispy skin with tender meat, filet was slightly under the requested medium but resulted in a juicy cut of meat. Alheira could have done with a touch more salt but the julienne salad was a great pairing. Ended with their chocolate condensed milk dessert that is recommended for those who really enjoy a sweet end to a meal. Also had their moist chocolate cake that was almost like a rich brownie - thoroughly enjoyed. Overall would definitely recommend to anyone near the city center, especially if you’re going for drinks and starters. Will...

Service is also good compared with the average in Mozambique. So, if you available to spend some...
