A traditional seafood bar that you order from the counter. It looks rough, but it's the best. Think of it as Brazilian and Portuguese tapas, and take advantage of the small plates to sample a lot.

They are known for their cod dumplings (Pataniscas) but they do a lot of different seafood. The menu changes every day and the beer is always ice cold. Gets busy on sunny weekends!
