Tolles einheimisches Ambiente mit Livemusik! Empfehlenswert sind die Gerichte mit Kabeljau.

The food was nothing to write about, but this was exactly what we were looking for in a Fado. Free to sit down with a minimum spend, rather than committing ourselves to a long, late, expensive established Fado experience. This allowed us to leave when we wished while enjoying Fado music. Cash only!
