My mind is boggled by all the good reviews and high stars for this place because my Hawaiian pizza and spaghetti bolognese were beyond disappointing.
We ordered takeaway and I must point out that they don't have plastic/ takeaway utensils for you to eat your food. Be aware.
The spaghetti bolognese had meat sauce and looked legit, but one bite and it was definitely missing something. It was seasonings they forgot. This would be a good dish for kids who don't like any spice.
The pizza box was so light, I already was suspicious walking to the car. When we got home and opened it, the pizza was paper thin with the most egregious crust I've ever seen. Parts of the crust was sooo thin that it broke apart like ash in my hand when I held it. And one pineapple per ham slice? A travesty.

This restaurant is all about pleasing regular customers - new diners are not welcome!! Food was good. Staff are indifferent and lack training or human empathy, unaware that tourists are the life blood of their Portuguese economy.

Summary: a meal to be avoided and a wasted investment because of an uncaring maitre di - he should be sacked by the...
Read moreWaiter was extremely rude from start to end. Very nonchalant and careless attitude. At the end he dumped the card machine on the table and left. When he came back he tried to charge us for a dessert we didn’t order. Then when he removed it, he asked for a tip for the same value as the dessert anyway. Seemed very cunning and we felt like we couldn’t say no. Food was subpar, not expensive by any means, but definitely microwave meals. He said the menu was specifically designed and no changes can be made. Understandable as everything came from a packet. Also we were made to sit next to a very loud speaker with music that didn’t resemble the ambience. Lyrics related to sx and eating p*sy, hardly...
