Caminho da Ronda — Restaurant in Lisbon

We stopped here because we were hungry after hiking up and down castle ramparts and it smelled so good outside this restaurant. It wasn't though. I don't know who was cooking what with all those seasonings, but our dishes didn't see any. The biggest problem I think is that the food was overcooked and underseasoned. Roast chicken was dry and didn't taste like much, Portuguese style steak was OK, as was the pizza, but I don't think we'd order either again. The grilled meat platter wasn't cooked so much as desiccated. We ordered cappuccinos which came out pre sweetened and with whipped cream, which is a level of bizarre you don't even see in America. I guess the waiter knew better than to ask how the food was, although other than that he was very nice and attentive. However, when we asked for the check, he wanted us to pay cash and when I asked if card was possible, eventually I was pointed inside, to the least friendly person I've encountered in Portugal. The charge was also mysteriously about €10 cheaper than the receipt we were given. So, no, I wouldn't recommend this place. Go somewhere else, enjoy a...

ATTENTION!!! When paying, the waiter will ask you to pay in cash if it is possible. He will do it for 2 reasons, the first is to avoid paying taxes to the government of Portugal because then he will never issue you any tax receipt, the second is because if he sees you a little distracted once he returns to the cash desk he will change one banknote for another of smaller value then saying that you were wrong to give him the money so he steals some from you. So if you really have to eat in this place, pay by card or count the money on his face when you give it to him and ask for a tax receipt.

ATENÇÃO!!! Ao pagar, o garçom pedirá que você pague em dinheiro, se possível. Ele vai fazer isso por 2 motivos, o primeiro é para evitar pagar impostos ao governo de Portugal porque assim ele nunca vai te passar nenhuma nota fiscal, o segundo é porque se ele te ver um pouco distraído assim que voltar ao caixa ele vai trocar uma cédula por outra de menor valor então dizendo que você errou em dar o dinheiro pra ele então ele rouba um pouco de você. Portanto, se você realmente tem que comer neste lugar, pague com cartão ou conte o dinheiro na cara dele quando der a ele e peça um recibo de imposto.

¡¡¡ATENCIÓN!!! Al pagar, el mesero le pedirá que pague en efectivo si es posible. Lo hará por 2 motivos, el primero es para no pagar impuestos al gobierno de Portugal porque entonces nunca te emitirá ningún comprobante fiscal, el segundo es porque si te ve un poco distraído una vez que regrese a la caja te cambiará un billete por otro de menor valor y luego dirá que te equivocaste al darle el dinero para que te robe algo. Así que si realmente tienes que comer en este lugar, paga con tarjeta o cuenta el dinero en su cara cuando se lo des y pide un recibo fiscal.

ATTENZIONE!!! Al momento di pagare, il cameriere vi chiederà di pagare in contanti se è possibile. Lo farà per 2 motivi, il primo è per non pagare le tasse al governo del Portogallo perché poi non vi rilascerà mai nessuna ricevuta fiscale, il secondo è perché se vi vede un po' distratti una volta tornato alla cassa cambierà una banconota con un altra di valore più piccolo dicendo poi che avete sbagliato a dargli i soldi così ve ne ruba un po'. Perciò se proprio dovete mangiare in questo posto pagate con la carta oppure contategli i soldi in faccia quando glieli date e pretendete la ricevuta fiscale.

ATTENTION!!! Lors du paiement, le serveur vous demandera de payer en espèces si cela est possible. Il le fera pour 2 raisons, la première est d'éviter de payer des impôts au gouvernement du Portugal car alors il ne vous délivrera jamais de reçu fiscal, la seconde est que s'il vous voit un peu distrait une fois de retour à la caisse il changera un billet pour un autre de moindre valeur puis en disant que vous avez eu tort de lui donner l'argent pour qu'il vous en vole. Donc si vous devez vraiment manger à cet endroit, payez par carte ou comptez l'argent sur son visage quand vous le lui donnez et demandez un...

in menue was written that they serve white & red sangria in glass. I have asked for a white end the waiter replied that they do only red one. So I ordered one, the glass was small and half of it was fruits with a bad aftertaste. The sangria was even not cold. And this disappointment costs 5€. My friend ordered Large beer (..as is written in menue of the cafe - 0.5l). The waiter brought 1l and started arguing that the large is 1L. However it is clear mentioned, after he started screaming at us that we had to tell the glass capacity. In the end of his hysteria he changed the glass. After we asked to pay and for receipt. He did not wanted to bring us the bill untill we pay him, which was weird. He was crazy & unfriendlyl. At the next table fell down the big sun umbrella and almost hit the people. So there are also some issues...
