This is a small, intimate Fish Restaurant in the heart of the Portuguese Quarter of the City. Booking is advisable if not essential, this is a very popular restaurant with limited space and only really one sitting per evening (irrespective of what time one arrives.) There is no menu: for a fixed price one is served 4 courses, 3 fish... More

When we went to this restaurant, it was ranked within the Top 5 on TA. I thought, I would give it a shot, especially due to the raving reviews. We made reservations on the same day and were seated with a couple at the same (!) table. You get served and entertained by Franco himself and everybody gets the same... More

I can't understand how this restaurant is rated so highly it was disgusting. The courses all taste the same. The main man was so in your face and false. I find trip advisor great but this restaurant for people who appreciate good food was horrible.

Nice restaurant with nice concept for the menu. Everyone gets the same but you can eat as many courses as you like for the same price (20eu) Normally after 4 dishes you are full. As they buy in the courses for the whole restaurant they can buy top quality for low prices. So for 20 eu per menu you get... More

The place is a bit small, but it makes it much fun. Franco, the owner, is helping by his own, with his tremendous personality, definitely he is part of the show. The food is very good, fresh fish and i think the best is that at least the time a was there, it did not have menu, you just paid... More

We booked a table and was served with much ado by Franco himself. Flaming schrimps, wonderfull fish and a desert. The local guitar player was also very good - also at singing.

My first visit was a truly unforgettable experience at Casa Franco. We were warmly greeted by Franco himself who remembered my dining partner after only two previous visits. We asked Franco, an exuberant and attentive host, to order for us with an emphasis on fish. What followed was sublime: magnificent garlic prawns with a flambé that scorched the ceiling; sturgeon,...

Followed other TripAdvisor reviews to Casa Franco and found a brilliantly authentic fish restaurant which we subsequently visited the following evening such was the warmth of the welcome and the beautiful food. The prawns alone were worth the 20 Euros although every course was perfect.
