Pro Tip
"They only accept cash (Nur Barzahlung). The Gambas (king prawns) and Bacalhau (cod) are local favorites, and don't skip the Pasteis de Nata for dessert!"
Visitors consistently praise the authenticity of the food and the friendly, 'Portuguese-style' hospitality. The seafood is highly rated, though some mention that service can be slow when it's very crowded.
