Five stars...

Absolutely delicious meal. Started with mixed salad - dressed to perfection with olive and vinegar. For dinner, my husband got chopped in the oven, which was basically two pork chops that are sautéed, and then served over rice, could not have been more delicious. We also got codfish bras, which was bacalao cod, basically a salted cod over potatoes and onion s with a light cream sauce. Excellent. We also had a yummy crème brûlée for dessert with the custard was more reminiscent of the famous pastel nais. Very affordable with great flavor and good...

Visited based on a really good rating but this was an utter disappointment. The service was nice - waiter did his best and took care of us but other than that there’s not much positive to say. The food was microwaved and in some cases seemed to have been taken out of a freezer to put in a microwave, butter was served in plastic containers (think airplane) and water in a plastic 1,5l bottle. The price was not cheap either, compared to other places in the city. The location is great and has potential but you can find better...
