Friendly owners available to welcome a group of friends who decided to go on a night mountain bike ride and at the end eat a delicious francesinha …

Excellent seafood restaurant, although a little out of the city center, it offers a variety of snacks, seafood, francesinhas, etc. Mr. Eduardo and Mrs. Paula are super professional and strive for good service, the prices are affordable, there are no dissatisfied customers here. It is definitely worth visiting.
