Pizza Do Francês — Restaurant in Lagos

My wife and I retired to Lagos 10 days ago from Texas. We were told about Pizza Do Frances by two locals, whom both agreed that this was one of the best pizza restaurants in town. We were not disappointed. The pepperoni pizza and Greek salad were excellent. Pepperoni is our test pizza for all new restaurants. The owner made the pizza and his wife was our waitress. Both are very friendly, like all of the Portuguese people we have met.

The house wine white was good and one glass was more than enough. The next night we had to go back and we had a "bacon" (ham) garlic bread and the Shrimp/Prawn spaghetti, again with a glass of white wine and a beer. Both times the check was under 18 euros and the spicy olive oil (hot!), regular olive oil and Parmesan cheese as condiments on the table were an added bonus. Staff was great and spoke...
