One of the best restaurants in town. The staff is also wonderful and very kind. We had an amazing dinner, delicious, and everything with a badass bossa-nova! I will go back, no doubts!
A compact yet cosy restaurant. The food was very tasty and very healthy. The piri piri chicken was delicious. If you like authentic Portuguese food this place is worth a visit
Fantastic night out. Great food and wine. Friendly staff. Will be going back. We live in Portugal and the food is just like home. A must visit when in Edinburgh.
Amazing experience, excellent food not to mention the professional and lovely staff ! Can't wait to be back at Edinburgh to visit the place again !
On a very cold evening, we received a very warm welcome at this authentically Portuguese restaurant. It is small and potentially cozy, though chilly on the night in question as we were the first customers and it hadn't warmed up yet. The food was exactly what we'd hoped for - a real taste of Portugal. We had bacalhao a bras (salt cod and potatoes in cream sauce) and carne de porco alentejana (pork and clams), both famous dishes in Portugal and both delicious. The choice of wines is very limited, though the bottle of Touriga National Trincadeira we had was good. They should expand their list of Portuguese wines. The portions were very generous and we ate too much but it was hard to resist. All in all, great value for money. We will be going back there soon.
Small, intimate restaurant, very good food. The waiter was friendly, helpful and added to the experience of eating here. It was delightful that the chef-owner came round and thanked us for our custom. We will certainly go to this restaurant again and tell all our friends that it is well worth a visit.
We felt like we'd spent an evening in Portugal. The warmth and music and the really really fabulous food. Add to that the live guitar playing, the champagne and chocolate cake for my partner's birthday! So attentive, spontaneous and friendly. We'll be back as soon as we can
Being Portuguese myself, there were a few things that were missed: the Portuguese bread was one of them and the covert ended up too expensive for the simple bread that was offered. Lots of things listed in the menu weren't available like bacalhau like bacalhau and deserts. On top of that the card machine was broken. Carne de porco à alentejana and bitoque were good but francezinha didn't convince.
Pauli, owner manager was great. Food was good and white wine was chilled to perfection. The Portuguese sausage was very meaty and very tasty. Pauli has only just got his licence so didn't have and white port when we visited. It is on its way. Definitely recommend this restaurant. I will be back next year.
Great wee restaurant. Been here several times. Unfortunately this time they had the football on as portugal were in the semi finals. When we turned up the only table was right by the door and it was really noisy. The staff were very understanding when we said we didn't now want the table. Food smelt amazing so will bbe back again soon!
