Went for dinner at Sushi Mood after receiving insta publicity and looking into their really well built insta. The place on the outside doesn’t look very good, inside the sushi bar looks good but table area is ok. We went for more elaborate plates. At a first glance the menu looks great with several great options. I must say the niguiri selection was top 3 best sushi dishes in Portugal.

Today we had sushi delivered and wow the quality has slipped even further. Again the Tuna was not edible. This we find an absolute shame, I know it’s August and you are busy, but the quality needs to...
