    Maybe the best grouper I've had in my life. Outstanding service, terrific food, a totally excellent experience from top to bottom. The staff were friendly and flexible, it was a delight to eat there. I heartily recommend them to both locals (we are recent transplants from Los Angeles) and visitors (our dining companions were from Florida). I sampled many of the other dishes at the table, and it was nearly impossible to pick a favourite. The vegetable accompaniments (haricots verts, carrots, potatoes) were perfectly simple, and simply perfect. And they nailed the crust on the queijada de Sintra, which is no mean feat. My photo doesn't -- can't -- do the food justice. By all means, go there and try it for yourself. You can thank me later.

    Great seafood restaurant!! This is more a bistronomie in Paris but it still a high end restaurant in Cascais. The food are really fresh, they gave us option to choose our own market fish. The Portuguese grill style for the fish is a must here. Highly recommended.

    We had a large group with pre-ordered meals. For such setting they were excellent and I recommend. Food was good, service quick and fun. I assume with a smaller group or family the experience would be even better. Had the best fish I experienced during my short stay in Portugal (visited few small and very nice restaurants as well).

    This place is legendary, however the group dinner was just ok, and the dessert was way too sweet.

    One of the best seafood places I’ve ever had. As always, no seafood is better than the Portuguese seafood. We had a feast of variety of seafood 🦞. The sole fish was the star of the show. Also, we had the sea bass and aldurado fish special to Portuguese cuisine. The sole fish was cooked in butter. One of the dishes was in a tomato sauce and onions and was amazing. The Portuguese wine was very delicious. The desert was alright. The clamps were sautéed in tomatoes. Overall, a delicious feast of sea food.

    We had fresh cheese from the farm served with the bread then phenomenal sea bass. The place is very upscale and highly regarded by many seafood lovers. The staff are prompt and the food is very good. It is in the nice square close to the shopping by the seaside area. Fresh fish is pricey but worth the extra for a large meal.

    Great pace to eat seafood. It’s not cheap but still reasonable given the high quality and generous portions. This arroz de mariscos could be easily shared by 4 people.

    This is more of a tourist restaurant - well overpriced food for little portions. The service was good but I won't return again. Obrigado

😐 So, firstly, the food here was very good! The starters were very tasty and huge portions (so beware unless you're really hungry), and the pizzas we had were delicious. And if you have a table by the window facing the sea, the view is lovely. However... overall experience was soured by poor service....

👍👍 Perfection. Spider crab was very well cooked, and was cut and set to eat with least effort. Steamed octopus was so tender and seafood rice had rich taste. And all the foods went so well with green wine. Wish I could visit again.
