With its charming front terrace shaded by a 100-year-old olive tree and a family-friendly back patio complete with a children’s playground, it’s a favourite for both locals and visitors looking for great food in a cosy, al fresco environment.

Chef Vítor Bernardo leads the kitchen, creating fresh, flavourful dishes inspired by Italian and Mediterranean traditions. The menu includes a tempting mix of antipasti, pasta, pizza, and seasonal mains. Highlights range from creamy burrata with ripe tomatoes to rich carbonara and seafood spaghetti. The handmade pizzas cover everything from the classics to more inventive combinations. Vegetarian and gluten-free options are available across the menu.

Prices are fair, portions are generous, and the vibe is both laid-back and stylish – ideal for long lunches, evening meals, or spontaneous get-togethers with friends and family.

Every Friday, the terrace comes alive with live music, adding a warm, lively energy as the sun goes down. It’s the perfect end to a relaxed day or the start of a memorable night out.

Families especially appreciate the outdoor space at the back, where children can play safely while adults unwind with a drink or enjoy a leisurely meal. Up front, the shaded terrace offers a picture-perfect backdrop for food, wine, and good conversation beneath the olive tree.
