Simple traditional and typical seafood restaurant in central Lisbon. As most traditional "marisqueiras" (restaurants specialized on seafood), the ambiance is informal and quite hectic, but they have great variety of products and all is VERY fresh and good. Great value for money comparing other marisqueiras in central Lisbon.
