"Had lunch at the big restaurant upstairs. It was a busy Saturday lunch so no time to peruse the menu; happy that they accommodated us vegetarians with a cheese omelette with fries and a salad. No glasses of wines; we got half litres! The white was young, fresh, nice. The red was also young, fruity, dry - not a typical Portuguese red but enjoyable. Friendly, efficient servers. Amazing to see how well they handle such a busy full room."
