We travelled 40 minutes to Kilkenny just to visit this restaurant and we wasn't desapointed. The food is authentic Portuguese. We had prawn rissois, meat rissol and cod cake for starter, chicken piri piri and grilled cod for main course and milk pudding with coffee for dessert. Everything was delicious. Good service, nice atmosphere. We will come back again.

Atmosphere
One of the best food we have tried recently, the price and portion size were reasonable, but the variety and taste were amazing! The staff were very accommodating, and the service was excellent. We should have left a tip for the extra service we received, but unfortunately, we forgot. We’ll definitely visit again when we’re in Kilkenny! 😊🌟⭐
Great restaurant with great service and portuguese atmosphere!
