What travelers say:
I came here to eat after reading the post, but I didn't make a reservation. When I arrived at the door, I saw the locked door and the doorbell. I was shocked. I rang the doorbell and the waiter said there was a seat. I felt so happy! The decoration of the restaurant is very classical and Portuguese. The walls are all Portuguese blue and white tiles, and the plates on the table are also Portuguese. It feels very good. The cover of the menu says Michelin recommended restaurant in Portuguese. When ordering, I asked the waiter to recommend it. The waiter started with lobster, how cost-effective and delicious it was, etc. Then I told him politely that I would study it myself. When it was almost time, I called the same waiter to take the order, and he started to promote lobster again. I didn't want to eat lobster. I ordered fish soup and Portuguese classic vegetable soup, cod, and grilled sea bass. I told the waiter that we should share, so he divided the two dishes into half on each of our plates. The dishes were good. The cod was not as salty as rumored. The sea bass was fried well. The fish soup my friend had was said to be very delicious, but she didn't say why it was delicious. Except that the waiter who took orders seemed to favor Asians (the Chinese couple sitting at the table at the door actually ordered a lobster), this restaurant was pretty good.

Very quiet environment overall is very good. The quality of the food is also very high
Thank you for a wonderful dinner with my uncle that I haven't seen in over 10 years. Everything was great, but the service could show some improvement if some of the staff could be more friendly with more smiles and courtesy. We had a great time overall.
Authentic food in a lovely restaurant. Service was great. Lots of table side service for the meals. Seafood Catapalana was amazing! Highly recommend this restaurant.
Excellent upscale place. Food is great. Had seafood stew and goat- both were excellent. Impeccable service. If you show up in print t-shirt and shorts- you’ll feel underdressed. No one will say anything to you- but you’ll feel it. Just a great place with a sense of occasion- in the best way.
