The staff and food were excelent. I had for starters a foccacia florentino wich came with an amazing housemade tomato sauce, and for the main course i went with a calzzone bolognese and my wife had spaghetti with seafood, wich both were amazing.

All in all its an amazing restaurant where we will surely return if we ever find ourselves in Lisbon. PS: the prices are amazing...

My sister had the margarita pizza, and this was the same: a lot of cheese. Maybe we ordered the wrong items since all the reviews were very positive, but this was...
