Service was extreme friendly. We where a big loud group and it doesn't matter. Food (francessinha) was very good. It seams that the spot was mostly visited be locals and not tourists. We had a very good time.

Service was awesome: professional and kind. Food was good. They offered a day-menu with two options: turkey brochettes or fish. I made it to the typical francesinha, with fries and red wine. Paid 12€ (9€ the francesinha and 3€ a jar of red wine… not bad!) (+volunteer tip). I recommend it without any doubts.

Nice food & great service. Enjoyed the Francesinha! Love the home cooked style food. Saw ladies (like my mom or grandmother) making dough & food in the back. Interesting to listen to the many locals hanging out and chatting. Will definitely visit again as it right across Botica metro station.
