We tagged along with a friend & his wife, who are regulars at this highly acclaimed fine-dining Portuguese eatery. The decor features modern elements & classic Portuguese charm; I was particularly captivated by the stunning ceiling. My friend's wife gave "carte blanche" to the waiter to bring a selection of dishes for us to share, & he brought a few items from the Tapas Quentes: Pasteis de Bacalhau, Sardinhas Assadas, & Lulas Grelhadas. The sommelier paired a privately imported white wine with these tapas, a perfect match. Then, we were served Sela de Borrego along with the catch of the day, accompanied by another bottle of white wine harmoniously paired. Though I'm usually not a fan of white wine, I found myself thoroughly enjoying it, I drank my share & my wife's share. While some nice desserts were offered, I was too satiated to have any. Just before we left, a waitress came with a complimentary Porto. I surely found room for that. The service was top-notch, with multiple servers attending to our table, & the food was phenomenal. The bill was quite steep at the end of the night, but it was one of the most memorable meals we've had in a long time.

Très bon restaurant. Les plats portugais sont vrais. Les croquettes, les pasteis de nata....excellents ! 3 salles dans le restaurant, ce qui en fait un grand restaurant mais avec une parcellisation permettant des coins & recoins plus intimistes. Je recommande!
