"Firstly, choosing the restaurante wasn't easy, a lot of offers, but i glade we chose this one. The location inside of the old village in a small square and the very well maint building create a good impression. Inside it was ok maybe a bit small but they have outside also, and depends of the weather to decide to stay or not, but i recomend to book in any case. The staff very pleasant. Portuguese cuisine. The dishes that we chose were very tasty. The drink that i chose was two glasses of red wine from two diferent regions. For digestive i recommend the Taylor's porto wine tawny 10 or 20 years, In the end was a very well time spent. The price in accordance with the service, for example the cloth napkin has its price of course. I recommend."
