Ribadouro

Frommer's Review

This isn't the biggest of the capital's beer and shellfish emporiums, but it's one of its most stylish, and in some ways, the most upscale. It's been here for longer than anyone can remember, a bustling high-ceilinged emporium whose jazzy Eisenhower-era decor never seems to really go out of style. Bubbling aquariums flank either side of the entryway of a not-very-large dining room whose tables turn over quickly, especially during the lunch hour. Menu items are two-fisted and unpretentious, with different preparations of the ubiquitous cod, sea bass, sole, and grouper, as well as simple grilled steaks, chicken or pork cutlets, and shish kabobs. A chilled stuffed crab appears almost automatically on your table for you to accept or reject. Bear in mind that prices here can go higher than those indicated below if you opt for portions of the exotic shellfish crammed into the glass display case near the bar.
