This place has all the signatures of a tourist trap with bad food located adjacent to the entrance of a tourist attraction, empty dining room at 1 P.M. on a weekend, and displays of non food related merchandize in the dining room. The truth could be any further. We dropped in for lunch based on recommendation of the guide of a recent tour. Despite our doubt, we decided to trust our guide....and so glad we did. It was one of our best meals in Portugal! We ordered lamb stew, meat pie, stuffed squid, and monk fish. Every dish was delicious. My favorite is the stuffed squid. Nothing fancy...just really fresh squid stuffed with really fresh shrimp. As soon as I bite into the squid, there was an e...
After reading the reviews on Clara's, we decided to make the hike up the hill to have supper one Monday night. We didn't realize just how small the place is, and she was barely able to squeeze us in on our promise that we'd be out of there before the folks with the 9:00 reservation arrived. We're glad she did! She was a very nice lady, going through the menu and describing each of the dishes. (I think there's basically one guy working the kitchen, so it's not a big menu. We started with the chourico plate, which was wonderful. There were about six different cured meats on the platter, all of which were excellent. Some hearty bread was served to go with the meat. My main course was cod cooked...
Another amazing spot that's in the corner of a very touristy section of town, but you should really stop here even if it looks like a tourist spot. The owner and his wife are great. They are working hard every day and if you are lucky get there in the evening before the tourist attractions close. It's lovely on this corner. The metro bus passing you buy at 0.5m. This place is tiny with a few tables. Try to get the one outside and watch the world go by. The food is spectacular, we had the polvo was so tender (and easy to make according to him. The price galo (John dory) and the polvi (octopus was so tender and tasty). It's clear that the good ingredients make a difference. The Frango was with...
I give this a 4.5. Great food, with great service. The place is very small, and the menu is entirely in Portuguese (the server explains all of the menu items for you though . I got to try two pork dishes and the salmon, and the food was rich with great flavours. The sides that came with the mains were average (baked potatoes, garden salad, etc. . The wine we got was great as well, and relatively cheap. For desert, I tried the lemon/lime mousse which was very rich and good, and their homemade nata which was delicious (and also a bit unique I recommend . Overall I definitely recommend this restaurant. I'm not the most educated in Portuguese cuisine, but this felt like a very authentic experien... Book a table now
We chose this restaurant for our anniversary lunch after the visit to Castelo de Sao Jorge. It is kind of built into the old walls of the castle, which gives it a lot of character and charming ambience. We went in for lunch after our visit to the castle. There are exactly 4 tables inside and couple of tables outside. Even though it is listed as a €€€ priced restaurant, the menu was inexpensive and reasonably priced I don't understand why the other reviewers have given such bad reviews, but the owner was really friendly and went out of his way to take care of us. He even game a complimentary glass of milk for the kiddo. We tried the fish (Filete de Pescado) and a puff pastry entrees. They wer...
What a complete d*ck. I came because of reviews on a different site. The menu looked good, but I also needed to check in on some emails for work. The owner went out of his way to insult and be condescending about it being a place to eat and not for wifi, no thanks wifi Nazi (Seinfield reference), keep your food, I 'll go somewhere else where customer service will go a lot further. In all seriousness, this guy walked out to the door to keep insulting. Stay away if possible. I hope this guy learns that customers pay the bills, a simple sorry no would have sufficed. Walked into WineBar do Castelo and the bartender was really helpful, very insightful with his wine recommendations and was generou...
A little hidden gem in the neighborhood. We walked by it few times and there is always a wait. They also take reservation too. Finally got lucky yesterday for our late lunch at 2:30 pm. It was worth the wait. It's just a comfortable space with homemade food. Everything was fresh tasting and tasty; we had cod and stuffed calamari, yum yum ; the portion is also perfect to allow me to fit in dessert
Incredible lunch spot just outside the Castelo do S. Jorge exit. The dishes were surprisingly inventive and tasty, and very inexpensive for the quality. It's literally an 8-table hole in the wall joint, and there is literally someone's grandmother in the kitchen. You might walk right past it if you can even find it, have a very inexpensive vino while you wait for a table, it's worth it. Book a table now
Stopped by after visiting the castle, which is about a block away. It's a small restaurant with 4-6 tables. And, yes, there are craft items for sale in the space, too (that the wife makes). The husband was very kind about explaining the menu. The food was fine, but definitely one of the least memorable meals I had in Portugal.
so far i've had three meals here. 2 dinners and a.lunch, and i'm pretty sure i'm having dinner tonight. why do i like it? it's very small, the staff is so kind and friendly, and the food is really good. everything.
