Octopus was superb! Super tender, steak originally came out well done when asked for medium rare but the staff were so apologetic and replaced it with a masterpiece of steak! (Came out a tad rare but it went down a treat). Good variety in meat and seafood. Lovely restaurant and staff. It's pricey but the food is pretty good.

Very friendly bilingual staff - always nice to find people who excel at speaking different languages! The Camembert as a starter was delicious and so was my vegetarian stew. Some great wines on the menu. A great local find! If you are very hungry, a main dish might not be enough (you might end up spending a bit more).

Best food and service I had in a long while. The place is small and nice and very cosy with an outstanding service. Our server was very friendly and had a great atitude towards children. Anyway long story short the food is ripped out if heaven!!! Top quality with amazing presentation and taste. Cant wish for more!

Fabulous introduction into genuine Portuguese cuisine. The quality is very high. They're very passionate about delivering a high standard of service and they are very informative too when asked questions about the food and the Portuguese culture. Highly recommended, you cannot go wrong. Will be going again soon.

You can’t fault this place - great food (the slow cooked octopus with sweet potato was amazing), lovely staff and nice atmosphere. I also had the steak with creamy sauce and cinnamon potatoes for main - was lovely and could probably feed two! Would definitely come back ☺️ More

Until this evening, my benchmark for restaurant reviews was based on a French Restaurant in the South of Holland. Capricho were faced with an extreme coeliac and offered a hot stone and steak. I suggested a mixed sea food grill on the stone
