## Common questions
**Is Ourives Petisqueira good for groups?**

Yes. The petiscos format is designed for sharing, and staff are attentive to tables of all sizes. The intimate space suits groups of 2–6 particularly well, with portions generous enough to encourage sampling multiple dishes.

**What are the standout dishes?**

Oxtail, veal tongue, garlic prawns, padrón peppers, and croquettes of jamón ibérico are frequently praised. Homemade desserts—especially chocolate mousse with sea salt—are signature finishes. House-made aioli is also a highlight.

**Is it expensive?**

No. At €15–30 per head, it's considered excellent value for the quality and portion size. Reviewers repeatedly note prices are 'very reasonable' and 'still very cheap' for the calibre of cooking.

**What is the atmosphere like?**

Intimate and authentically Portuguese. The converted jewellery shop has classic décor, cosy lighting, and genuine neighbourhood character. The tram rumbles past outside, adding to the real Lisbon feel.

**Is booking essential?**

The space is small and popular, so booking ahead is recommended, especially for dinner service or groups. Walk-ins may face a wait during peak hours.
