11 of its 37 recent reviewers are from Portugal - 26 are not.

Only 11 locals have reviewed here recently - too few for a confident local score, and the ones who did weren't impressed. So few local reviews is itself a hint locals don't often come here.

🌿 Quietly reviewed - about 1.5 new Google reviews a month
