Delicious! Real Portuguese traditional food. Great food, nice people, nice service. Just missing a nice view.

Delicious food, very nice staff, overall a really pleasant experience. The location of the restaurant isn't the best, it's just surrounded by buildings in a suburban setting, so nothing to see, really, and prices could be a little better, still, overall, I recommend this place to whoever visits Braga and is looking for good food. Desserts are a big plus!

The staff is polite, and the restaurant is clean. However, the service was slow, and it took a long time to receive my dish. I ordered roasted kid goat, which came with potatoes and rice—enough for two people. Unfortunately, the rice was cold, and the meat was just average—nothing remarkable that would make me want to order it again. Overall, the experience was just okay.

Our host highly recommended this restaurant and we agree. This is a very popular place and a reservation is needed, best to do so a few days in advance. We were very lucky that our host called and was able to get us in (the last available table). Many Portuguese favorites and our waitress spoiled us.
