We've been to this restaurant on our first day in Lisbon. The food and service was alright, however we've apparently received a more expensive glass of sangria than what we had ordered and got charged 3.50 euros for starters we hadn't ordered at all. I've been previously in Portugal and I know that they normally bring various starters without ordering them and they charge for the items you actually eat, but if you don't touch them, they won't charge. We've got some bread and olives, but we have only eaten bread, haven't touched the olives. This charge comparing to the meal consisting of a soup, main and drink I had costing 6 euros is a bit harsh, especially it wasn't indicated on the menu that either there was a cover charge, or the amount they charge for bread. I work in hospitality as well, and I do not tolerate this approach of running a business. Obviously we haven't received a proper receipt either. I did not feel there was worth to complain, I've just decided to be more careful next time. I do not normally leave a restaurant without leaving a decent tip (even in a country where's not customary to do so), but here that was the case. Fortunately our experiences in the next few days in Portugal turned out to be much better…
