The façade of this historic fado house is distinguished by a stunning vintage azulejo (tile) design fashioned around the front door of the premises. The tiles depict guitars, dancing folk singers and jugs of wine and date from 1937, when the restaurant opened. A careful refurbishment in 2012 has transformed the interior into a striking and contemporary dining space the walls of which display various paintings, drawings and photographs belonging to the Machado family. The greatest exponent of fado, Amália Rodrigues, sang here. More recently, her modern counterpart Mariza has graced the floor. Resident singers today are: Marco Rodrigues, Isabel Noronha, Pedro Moutinho and Joana Veiga. The cuisine is traditional Portuguese but served with modern flourishes. The wine cellar is stocked with reds and whites from across Portugal.
