Went to this place originally because of the wagyu beef mention, but wanted to try other options first to see what the place was like and it did not disappoint. Paulo is friendly and calm, very kind and able to answer questions on the dish, make recommendations without pushing them on you, allowing you plenty of time to choose and offering substitutions if there are things you are not happy about. It feels like you are at home and just being cooked food by family, with choices you can make to make the experience nicer.
The trio starter is wonderful, I dislike mustard with a passion and even I loved the sweet mustard sauce that goes with the black pudding fritter (Morcela) which was so very soft on the inside and so very satisfying to bite through on the outside, the the trout was wonderful, like having a fish pie in bite form so tasty and almost creamy inside with a lovely outside to it, there was a smoked sausage as well which was wonderfully smoked and savoury
The chilli beef with fried rice is amazing as well, so very crispy outside, with the softest beef I have ever had on the inside, very generous portion of beef, so lovely and sticky and very deep almost caramel flavour sauce. The rice was also lovely deep soy sauce flavours, with lots of little vegetables in them.
The Nata was unlike anything I have ever had before, with the puff pastry, and Chantilly cream which was very nice. The Nata had almost fully liquid hot custard inside, with the flakiest crispest pastry I have ever had, so satisfying (next time I will have to try the other kind which has choux pastry instead), very rare to see dairy free ice cream which was very tasty.
my partner and I had a white port (which I didn't know was a thing) which was amazingly sweet almost like mead, and a custard tart shot of something which was like liquid alcohol custard with cinnamon on, like a fancy eggnog but really tasty.
Paulo and the new server who did really well on a first day checked in on us throughout and talked about Portugal, but did not at any point feel like he was standing over us or speeding us up. Everything was relaxed, and the music is inoffensive. The place looks great and the seats are very comfortable (we sat in the black plastic seats which from pictures looks like they might not be but they were very nice to sit in for more than 2 hours)
Also, there are like 3 or 4 pokestops for pokemon go at this location which is nice.
