9 Best Mediterranean Restaurants in Amarante

“I had the pleasure of dining at Quinta da Lama, a former olive oil mill that has been transformed into a delightful restaurant. The place exudes a cozy and rustic charm, with clay pots and vintage stone adorning the dining room.The menu offers a wide range of dishes, from traditional Portuguese cuisine to Mediterranean and European influences. I opted for the “posta à lagar”, a succulent tenderloin steak cooked in olive oil and garlic, and the cod with cornbread, a classic Portuguese dish that was moist and flavorful. Both dishes were exquisite and prepared with fresh and quality ingredients. The salads and bread were also very good.For dessert, I indulged in the “leite creme”, a creamy custard with a caramelized crust. It was heavenly, one of the best I ever had. I also enjoyed the house wine, a local red wine that complemented the food perfectly.The service was impeccable and attentive, and the prices were reasonable for the quality and quantity of the food. I had a splendid time at Quinta da Lama and I highly recommend it to anyone looking for an authentic and satisfying dining experience in Amarante.“

“Dîner vraiment très bien. La prestation est loins des standards portugais. Nous sommes là sur de la qualité autant sur le service que sur la nourriture et cerise sur le gâteau maintenant que la rue est devenue piétonne le cadre est encore mieux. Honnêtement si vous aimez la gastronomie et que vous passez sur Amarante il faut y faire un arrêt.“

“(Translated by Google) Good service and affordable and good food. The terrace is very pleasant and the tables are quite far apart. It just needs a touch of modernity.(Original)Bom atendimento e comida acessível e boa. A esplanada é muito agradável e as mesas estão bastante distantes umas das outras. Só precisa de um toque de modernidade.“
