Every meal well presented and cooked with pride and consistency, for a very reasonable price. The Menu is in four languages but if you need help with this the waiter is very happy to explain in fluent English and with patience. All I have left to say is if you are looking for a quality, reasonably priced lunch or Coffee with a cake in, Beiro Rio would be my first recommendation...
