J'ai eu l'occasion de manger au restaurant & c'était le meilleur tout excellent, aujourd'hui j'ai préféré manger à la maison & j'ai été surprise avec un poulet totalement brûlé 😩. Dommage que j'habite loin du restaurant pour aller le changer & me plaindre de la mauvaise expérience que j'ai eue aujourd'hui.

It was a magical experience! The atmosphere was very nice, the owners are lovely. The food was delicious, i had the half chicken which was full of charred flavors of the grill yet still juicy & tasty. It was a great place to have a nice lunch

Nous y allons souvent en famille & toujours aussi satisfait! C'est probablement le meilleur rapport qualité/prix en ville.

It was pretty good, but still not my favorite portuguese place around. They had very mild'spicy' sauce, the fries were a little bland, & some chicken pieces were a bit too burnt to be a 5 star place for me. The pastel de nata is solid flavor wise but really lacks in crispyness too. I have to say though, portion is huge for the price. Definitely a good bang for your buck!

Excellente expérience 🔥
La cuisson au charbon fait vraiment la différence - goût authentique, viande tendre & pleine de saveur.
Les accompagnements étaient frais, le pain excellent & tout était très bien préparé.
On sent le souci de la qualité dans chaque détail 👌
Très bon service & belle ambiance.
Je recommande sans hésitation !
