A great place just a few steps from the apartment. Great staff and great Portuguese traditional food. You may need to wait in a queue, but it's definitely worth the wait! The octopus is delicious, and you must try the alheira (The "alheira" is a type of Portuguese sausage, made with meats other than pork (usually veal, duck, chicken, quail or rabbit) and bread.)!
