Fantastic tasty food with a family environment, suitable for any occasion. Portuguese/African flavour! Reliable place that never lets you down. Missing Dna Maria’s touch but still great!

The food was very good, bit pricey, but very good. The staff was very nice and polite, inside it really feels like an authentic Portuguese restaurant, might not be everyone's cup of tea, but surely was mine. Definitely recommended.

I organised our team Christmas lunch for 11 people here. I provided a pre-order for our main courses. The food was ready shortly after we arrived and the service was friendly, attentive and phenomenally efficient. A great time was had by all. We also ordered several desserts. A fantastic experience that I cannot fault.

Great food, one of the best I've had in 10y in the UK. We've had one of the best fish dishes ever, Seafood Cataplana and Ameijoas a Bulhao Pato. The quality/price relationship is HIGH. The neighbourhood isn't exactly pristine, but fortunately as soon you enter it's a whole different world, so very well worth the 1h trip from Cambridge. We will be coming back, no question!
