    Very delicious food. A small menu written on a board with a few fish dishes on one side, and a few meat on the other. We got two types of fish and loved both. Lots of outdoor seating on a very pedestrian street, and a tiny stage for local musicians which set a lovely atmosphere. The staff seemed a bit overloaded by the number of guests, but they were always super friendly so not truly something to complain about.

    Good experience overall! We went for dinner and got live music. I has tuna tataki which was fresh! The only improvement would be to accept international cards.

    If what you're after is a simple meal sitting on the street on a warm evening listening to musicians who are enjoying themselves, this is the place for you. We had excellent grilled fish on top of interesting friend rice with veg. They even sell wine by the glass. Lovely service. Warning - cash only.

    On our first night in Praia we came across this restaurant and the food was out of this world. The chef cooked the fresh fish perfectly. The waiter, Ruan cardoso, gave us the nicest dry white wine, Cabriz. I highly recommend the Esmoregal Grelhado fish. After 10 days of travelling to different islands we returned for our last meal in Cape Verde to this restaurant. There was live music too!

    Poor service. The waiter told me « special price » when I asked how much was the esmoregal. We ended up with a bill of 4000 ECV for 2 cocktails and 2 dishes - the highest we got in 3 weeks. Very expensive for légumes fish and rice. Not enough lights outside.

    Had early an early big lunch there. Beautifully served tuna tartar with apple, delicious grilled grouper with very good fries, good choice of alcohol-free drinks; coffee, of course. I noticed they also offer local beer. I did not try desserts. It seems to be oriented for both tourists and locals.

    Excellent petit restaurant très bien placé, au rapport qualité prix très bon. Le poisson était frais et servi avec une grande variété de légumes, ainsi qu’une sauce aux fèves. Lives le soir très réussis pour une ambiance chaleureuse, nous avons adoré ! De plus José, le gérant, est très aimable et parle de nombreuses langues.

    (Translated by Google) The space is very pleasant and the food is very tasty and well prepared. I ordered esmorgal which was fresh and delicious. Employees are helpful and competent. Live music in this context provided a unique experience in Cape Verde that I will not forget. Thank you José da Rosa (Original) O espaço é bastante agradável e a comida muito saborosa e bem confeccionada. Pedi esmorgal que estava fresco e delicioso. Os empregados são solícitos e competentes. A música ao vivo neste contexto, proporcionou uma experiência única em Cabo Verde, que não esquecerei. Obrigado José da Rosa

    Pedimos pescado y todo muy bueno. Raciones generosas que vienen acompañadas de mas guarniciones como arroz y legumbres. Situado en la calle peatonal permite comer tranquilamente rodeado de los locales.

    The foreigner owner sees we are eating but it doesn't bother smoking inside. Why doing what you wouldn't do in your own country? What a disgusting behavior as well. The service from the workers was good.

  • 5/5 Marie G. 2 years ago on Google
    Good fish, veggies and rice. House red wine was very good as well
