Another great project of famous J Avillez. Congrats! Very good food, pleasant and relaxed atmosphere , nice and light design, creative dishes with Portuguese flavours.. Recommend!

Luis Dias

Yes the bacalhau nuggets deliver and yes the bitoque delivers but then again, if you're a local as myself, I can't help thinking that chef Avillez targets none other than wealthy clueless tourists .

fish there is the best fish in my life ???? very comforting food , location and atmosphere

Yingxue Yang

Very nice location. The pork stew with broad beans is sensational... the Pastel de nata is also good (as it says on the menu-best in town )

Pello Rauno

Stacey Brook

One of the more affordable restaurants of the well-known Portuguese chef José Avillez . Prices for mains range from 11€ to 23€.

Carl Figueiredo

Excellent lunch with perfectly executed classics. Arroz de Polvo and the Polvo a Lagareiro were excellent. Don't miss the desserts either.

Ina Li

Good atmosphere and location. Must try the pig head and Cod "a bras!" A bit heavy but so worth it!

Vladan Dobrenov

Fantastic. From starters to sweets at the end everything was more than special. Try hazelnut3 you will not regret:)

Thomas Chandler

Excellent late-night venue. Didn't arrive until 23:30 but the place was still going. The cod nuggets were good.

Erin Glenn

We were in the mood for salads after a week of eating fish and this was perfect

Beautiful terrace outside. One of the place by chef José Alvirrez

When you thought they had done everything there was to do with cod .. Jose Avillez comes out with cod nuggets ... A must!

They did not let me to take my nearly full water bottle although I had paid for it. Water got waisted. I took back the generous tip I left.

Great lunch

Sofia Galego

Traditional food by Avillez. Quail pie was excellent executed and very yummy, the rise was to buttery and salty. Nice restaurant with OK food.

Katie Schultz

Bacalao with exploding olives

Gautam Prakash

Overpriced for what it is and a fixed cover charge per person of €2.75!! Better places around.

João Ferreira

Restaurante espectacular onde a classe e qualidade reinam. O atendimento é de uma simpatia e atenção única onde nos sentimos muito bem vindos. O polvo à lagareiro é extraordinário!

Bora Goksingol

Nuget ve ahtapot izgara çok güzeldi. Ama puding eşliğinde içilen şarap gerçekten inanılmazdı her yönüyle tavsiye edilecek Vi restaurant. Tek kelimeyle mükemmel.

Carlos Vieira

Excelente cozinha sobre a orientação do Chefe Avillez. Profissionalismo, simpatia e qualidade do serviço. Óptimo para uma refeição descontraída num local fantástico " Teatro S. Carlos"

Kleines apartes Restaurant von José Avillez. Die Gerichte sind einfach, aber schmackhaft. Die Weinauswahl gut.

O ambiente é agradável, o atendimento é correcto e simpático. Não consigo deixar rasgados elogios relativamente à refeição. De boa qualidade, mas nada de memorável.

Tatiana Miakqi

Отличные стейки и супер хорошее обслуживание

Coline Bourdois

La nourriture est très bonne (attention pour les tapas à partager, ce n’est pas si copieux que ça). En revanche, service très limite avec des serveurs peu expérimentés.

A mousse de chocolate é imperdível!
