👍👍 This place is amazing, you can tell there is a passion and love for what they are cooking and putting on your plate. The ambiance is moody, clean, and very comfortable.

    This place is amazing, you can tell there is a passion and love for what they are cooking and putting on your plate. The ambiance is moody, clean, and very comfortable. They go the extra step to cater to solo diners by adopting the menu and the food is really great. If I had to rate what I had 1. Pulled pork bun - 10/10 fantastic, amazing, and must have 2. Korean fried wings 7.5/10 - they were good but I felt like they were more crispy wings with a great sauce as opposed to Korean fried wings. Korean fried wings have a ultra crispy and puffy crust to them. 3. Salmon bao Bun 8.5/10 - great balance of flavor, the salmon taste is very strong - if you like seafood you will love this one. 4. Bonus - dessert. I had the raspberry, this is where you can really feel the passion exaggerated even beyond the food. So many different elements, so many different textures, the perfect balance of flavors. 10/10 can't ask for more. Cocktail wise I got the smoke it, which was amazing rich and exactly how it sounds, smokin. Overall, definitely reccomend

    It’s easy to give 5 stars to this great little restaurant that offers good ambiance, great service and excellent food. Reservation is definitely recommended, but they were able to accommodate us without one. Cocktails came out frothy and tasty, dishes were flavourful with excellent presentation and balance. Great recommendations made by the waiter. We will definitively be back.

    Really good Asian fusion, we had 4 dishes, 2 wines, 1 cocktail for €58. A very nice vibe and would happily come back.

    Really love the Asian fusion tapas concept. We shared the angry wings, quinoa popcorn, pork ribs, pork belly, tres leches cake, and duck bao. All were fresh and flavorful. Cocktails (gin-zoo and smoked scotch) and quinoa popcorn were surprisingly good. Was a bit disappointed in the chopped duck preparation and lack of crispiness in the angry wings. Dishes were served as multiple courses. Service was helpful and spoke English and Portuguese. I would rate higher, but at this price point (30 - 50€/person) I expect nicer flatware/ambience and better protein preparation.

    Excelent food for sharing. Choose from an eclectic list composed by duck baos, tender octopus, chicken green curry, pork belly and lots of other finger food perfectly cooked and presented in a very tasteful way. Alcoholic and non-alcoholic cocktails are a must, specially the litchi ones. Mostly recommend to leave some space for the degustation of one of the three wonderful deserts. The prices are affordable and the staff is very efficient and friendly.

    Love this place! Everything was delicious especially the tacos and angry fried chicken. Beautifully presented and well executed. One of the best modern tapas place that have successfully interpreted and reinvented traditional dishes without being pretentious. The coco-nuts and white chocolate desserts are highly recommended too! Service is very friendly and the chef came to our table twice to check if everything was going well. Only thing I would like improved is probably the lighting which I find too harsh and bright. Otherwise looking forward to revisit already !

    Spent two weeks in Portugal, by far one of my all time favorite restaurants! The whole family agrees! Definitely try the pulled pork & the duck..perfection.

    An excellent gastronomic experience next to the Príncipe Real garden in Lisbon. Of all the dishes chosen, I highlight the octopus ceviche tacos! It's worth the experience. The atmosphere is welcoming and the music is also quite good!

    Hands-down our favorite non-traditional meal while in Lisbon! Reservations recommended for this stylish fusion tapas restaurant, but we came on the early side of dinner and made it in without one. The two of us shared four dishes and one dessert. Every dish was creative, delicious, and beautiful. Flavor standouts were the ceviche, fried cuttlefish (to our surprise), the coconut ice cream dessert, and the cocktails (unfortunately don't remember the names). Hats off to the entire team- the server made great recommendations, the bartender made some of the best drinks we’ve had, and of course we wish we could have tried the entire menu (it’s small but full of flavor!). We found out afterwards that apparently the chef won the second edition of Masterchef in Portugal. Best part is the amazing value- we spent around 75€ for 5 dishes and 3 drinks. For top flavor and service, it’s a steal, and we regret not coming back for our last night. Honestly it was one of the best meals we’ve had, and this will be our first stop when we’re back in Lisbon.

    I was excited to try this place - it seemed exactly like the kind of food I'm usually into. Unfortunately, it fell short. I had a margarita, some kind of veggie rolls with salmon and the pork belly. The drink was quite nice, but the food was quite mediocre. The rolls weren't bad, but didn't offer much excitement in terms of texture and flavor. The pork belly was a disappointment - just dry. I'm not sure if it was bad quality meat or they just don't know how to cook it properly. I might go back sometime again to try the rest of the menu, but honestly I'm not excited by the idea.

    The food was terrific! Now I'm talking about our experience! We were served by a pretty Brazilian waitress, with glasses, I won't share names! But he turned his back on us in a complaint! The hot food was prepared 10 minutes in advance in front of us. We paid €66 for 2 people. we have and must have an opinion. I add that the people around us appreciated our sincerity and agreed with our opinion. Maybe teach manners to those who deal with customers in your business. Thanks.

    Great food, very tasty. The dishes are not big, but looked lovely and tasted delicious. The service was ok, on the slow side...good cocktails.

    Very nice experience, with good cocktails and food you don’t see every day. Highly recommended.

    Amazing restaurant we stumbled into. The food was beautiful and so flavourful. We got salmon ceviche, popcorn quinoa, angry chicken wings, duck bao and octopus/shrimp ceviche - would highly recommend all of them! Service was awesome and vibe was nice. We got there on a Friday at 9:30 and there were a few tables left.

    Excellent Asian fusion place in Lisbon. Came here for the second time and still as good as a few years ago. Cocktails are good too and very nicely presented!

  • 5/5 Jared R. 1 year ago on Google
    An excellent meal and experience. Our favorites were the angry fried chicken wings and the pork belly. The duck bao and the gyozas were good, not great. Still loved it. Very stylish place and great service. Would definitely go back!
