I had lunch with my family and a few friends. The grilled fish and fish stew was good, but the service was atrocious. Our waiter struggled to keep eye contact, and was mostly rude. When we pointed out to him that our drinks and sides should have come before or at the same time as our mains, rather than a long time after, the waiter proceeded to argue and shout across the restaurant floor. This was inconsiderate and plainly disrespectful. Me and my family will not be returning to this restaurant.
I have never written a poor review on a restaurant but wanted to share our experience. We were recommended by a local tour guide, so I felt like my guard was down.
First I made the mistake of asking our waiter for recommendations instead of studying the menu. The overzealous waiter recommended us to order the seafood combo platter (137 euro) and also the grilled lobster (172 euro for 1 lobster). The waiter HIGHLY recommended the lobster. I was excited, this lobster must be like a wagyu lobster or something to be THAT pricey. I asked the waiter if this was too much food for three people, he said no!
The food was okay. I should have read the menu closely that the mistos combo is mostly different variations of hot and cold shrimp with a few selections of clams and crab. I don’t mind paying extra for quality seafood, but almost everything came out doused in garlic butter. This is fine with a few dishes but the seafood drowning in butter hid any freshness that *may* have existed. And the expensive lobster? I felt like I was eating an oversized shrimp. I wish I had kept my original plan of octopus which would have added more variety to the spread, and would have been less expensive.
In the end, we were not able to finish all the food, and there was leftover (8 large shrimps and a few crab pieces, untouched). The waiter quickly and carefully ONLY took away the platter with the untouched food and disappeared into the kitchen. He left the dirty plates with shells and trash on the table the rest of the time we were there. Typical restaurant service is the opposite: the waiter normally clears the trash first and leaves the uneaten food. At first I thought he was boxing the leftovers for us to take home… nope. We never saw the food again. I have suspicions about what happened to the leftovers when we left.
At the end, the waiter mentioned to us that owner takes all the tip added to the bill and does not give any to the waitstaff, so he encouraged us to tip in cash, which we did. We paid over 350 euros total for dinner for three people. For this expensive amount, I had imagined we were getting a five star food experience. We started out really excited to come here but left disappointed. Don’t make my mistakes—I should have ordered like a local (a la carte), and I should have been more careful in clarifying the menu with the waiter instead of trusting his judgement. It was an expensive lesson for a tourist.

Pretty busy at dinner time yet fairly quick. Not the place if you’re expecting something elegant, quiet or relaxing. The seafood is good, authentic and the portions are generous.
If you're looking for fresh seafood in Lisbon, this is the place. Down-to-earth setting, it was a busy dinner time, but service is fast and friendly. Every dish was freshly cooked and delicious. This is a place to revisit if I come to Lisbon again.
Busy authentic seafood restaurant that deserves a visit. Amazing view over the water to the city of Lisbon and the best shrimp.
Awesome seafood with local prices.. From Lisbon, take the ferry and in about 8minutes you will arrive. It is worth the trip to eat at a local place and great seafood. Great prices.
