Frommer's Review

An experience within this manicured, impeccably correct dining room is a very far cry from any of the city's larger and more mass-market dining options. Small-scale and personalized, and ringed with tilework in the Hispano-Moorish style, it's the equivalent of a meal within the homes of (wealthy) Portuguese hipsters. A uniformed staff will show you to one of only 32 seats, within a room that reeks of the baroque age with an updated sense of the 21st-century arts in the form of photographs by Rui Calçado Bastos. Cuisine, as conceived by chef Luís Rodriguez, includes fresh seasonal ingredients from local markets, with a goodly number of vegetarian specialties. Look for cream of mushroom soup with ham; a risotto made from Swiss chard, eggplant, and fresh tomatoes; a medley of grouper, potatoes, and anchovies with boletus mushrooms; a tartare of salmon with fresh herbs; and a confit of fresh hake with sweet potato cannelloni.
