It's a tourist attraction more than a food market experience. The waiter from the seafood place we ordered from was quite rude. The octopus hot dog was bland and got queasy pretty quick. The codfish cakes were great though. You'll also spend a lot of time swimming in people, finding what you want to eat, queueing and finding a place to sit rather than enjoying the sun and fresh air outside. I'd say you're better off finding a more authentic, local place and leave this one to the tourists who are willing to pay for overpriced bland food and spend an hour waiting.
