Tasca do Isaías

Go early or go unrushed. The greatness of this place begins with the smallness of the space. It is a cult classic for grilled fish and other delicacies with only half a dozen tables and they don’t take cards. While you wait, watch the artful descaling and grilling process. Sardines, squid, swordfish (portions ranging from 7€ to 10€) and beach menu staples like clams and razor clams (10€/portion). For 20€ you can have a meal for two, and you might even befriend the Spanish couple you’ll be sharing your table with.
