You should also try their saffron gin - a definite winner.

Will certainly be back and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a Portuguese restaurant.

Large pieces of freshly cooked bacon, spinach, riccotta and sun-dried tomatoes on a perfectly cooked base. Coupled with a salad and a cheescake that was frankly a damn sight more superior than the usual pizza place desserts available, I would not hesitate to recommend this place to anyone. Excellent!

The dishes were excellent as the wine and the desserts. This is a fairly large restaurant, busy and lively. The waitress are polite and helpfull and the senior staff members wear suits!

Those who are there are badly trained - no idea what wines they've got on offer and seemingly unable to pour a pint. They also took over 20 minutes to serve me at the bar despite not being busy. They were also rude - not only to me but to my fellow customers at the bar. The food also took over an hour to arrive - and when it did it was cold. I will be avoiding from now on

Inside, it's all dark wood, dark tables, leather-backed sofa seats and lots of books on shelves.

The food is good and they serve a rather lovely selection of Pieminster pies - yummy!

Music was quite loud, but not overbearing and there are a good selection of drinks available, averagely priced.

Downside was no draught bitter - a personal bugbear of mine - and for a Thursday night on the recent visit, it was terribly quiet.

If it's busy, it has a good vibe and deserves to succeed.
