50 Best Mediterranean Restaurants near Aradas

“We have been customers for many years, management has changed, yes, but the good employees prevail and so does the food! We all know that we are in peak season and that's good, because the economy needs it, but labor is in short supply and we all have to understand! The food remains the same and so does the service! More understanding, we are all human beings!“

“It's been more than 12 years since we stopped in Aveiro...we had once wanted to go in but it was impossible, they don't make reservations and the lines are tremendous... It must be for a reason!!
Today we had dinner, a menu of starters, fish and meat... they advise you and it is worth it, in everything because the treatment of both is 10!, homemade food and fresh raw materials!! No decorations, you don't need them!! Homemade desserts and a drink... We have been like at home! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!! OBRIGADO!!“

“There were 4 of us and we left delighted. The service was fast and the waiter who served us was close and super nice. The food was exquisite: we ordered a shrimp risotto and a soupy seafood rice, with the bao bread for starters. Both the quantity and the quality of the product are unbeatable. This, added to impeccable service, made our dinner a magnificent experience, which we would undoubtedly repeat.
Totally recommended.“

“Unique experience. Everything impeccable. Delicious starters, grilled lettuce and tartlet with earthy flavors. 5-star cod loin and turbot with divine cauliflower. Finished with bread pudding with fantastic mango and passion fruit ice cream.“

“Super nice family restaurant. The people there are so friendly and always pay attention to what you need.

We tried the fish soup, fried eel, seafood rice and cod fish. My children loves the seafood rice the best and so do we. A portion of two is enough for 4 of us. If we were to go again, seafood rice is a must order dish.

The lady there is so kind that she stopped us from ordering more dishes to avoid wastage. That’s so true. Their portion is big and all the dishes are value for money.

If you are nearby, must come here for a meal!“

“07/17/2024.
But this restaurant is just a gem.
Very effective in decoration while remaining simple.
On the other hand, the dishes are just magnificent,
The cod is in its place.
Or maybe it’s the place for cod.
good, tasty, quite plentiful.
The wines offered match the dishes.
The local beers offered are very good.
On the next visit, I order meat, which looks just as good.
I don't understand that some of the people next to me ordered chicken and fries, which is not on the menu, but which they were kind enough to serve to them ???.
Thank you for this dinner @bacalhau & orders.

Parking: Right in front of the restaurant

Wheelchair accessibility: No stairs“

“Attentive and efficient fast service. Today I ate a divine stew but I'll be back to try the meat, which also looks great. Very complete wine list organized by regions and whites. It was busy and it seemed to be convenient to make an appointment and this contributed to the restaurant's only less pleasant note: a somewhat intense and unpleasant background noise.“

“Very well received by the staff who are very friendly.
Restaurant with a menu dedicated almost exclusively to cod and its derivatives. We ate cod with cornbread of very good quality and well prepared.

Wheelchair accessibility: Wheelchair accessibility is not the best, although it is possible to overcome the entrance steps.“

“Delicious food in a new and great concept to the city. The staff and chef were very helpful and friendly. The place isn't too big wich is great, has a "home confort" kind of vibe. It's better to make a reservation. Will for sure come back.“

“We ordered 2 pregos, 1 with just rice and under the steak they put salad and red onion and the rice came full of peas, the complete prego came with the hard egg yolk.
The rest of the table ordered cod and had no complaints. I assumed that the restaurant's specialty is not meat.
Otherwise it is a traditional food restaurant“

“We chose randomly and decided to go for the good score, and we didn't regret it. We were very well looked after, everyone was very attentive, everything was wonderful, in addition to being excellent value, I recommend it and will be back.“

“Very good cuisine, especially on the savory part. We opted for the dish to share for two: prawns and rice, which was excellent. However, we were disappointed by the quantity-price ratio. We paid €80 for this dish composed of 3 prawns (for two, that's not much, and why an odd number?) and a portion of rice that was not very generous. Dessert a little too sweet and stuffy for my taste.
The service was very pleasant.“

“Nice terrace, with very friendly and efficient service. Tasty food arrived quickly. Faded crockery behind spoils the good image of the house.

Kid-friendliness: Has menus for children

Wheelchair accessibility: The street side and terrace“

“Quiet, well-maintained place.
High quality food with research and attention to flavor combinations.
Very welcoming, helpful and very polite staff.
To come back!!
Advised!
Congratulations to all the staff!! ❤️“

“Great seafood. Lots of delicious shrimp. Menu only in Portuguese, but we got there using Google translate. The portion for 2 would easily have been enough for three or four people. Delicious. The price for this amount of shrimp was unbeatable. We are very happy to have landed here.“

“All good, the best in the area, as they told us at the beach bar on Costa Nova, Cristal Prado (great, by the way, to watch the sunset...). A "seafood dough" that was finger-licking good... Some fresh and delicious clams as well as a delicious fried San Martiño. To add some "but", I needed a little more fish to be able to choose from on the menu...“

“So I got these little balls and the Mexican empanadas as starters, the chilli for main abd cheesecake for desert.The food is good. The chilli looks the same as in the menu, that's why I didn't take any pictures. In the menu it says to share but I was sharing it with my mom and the portion didn't make us satisfied, we even asked for more wrap pieces and even with that, it was not enough. I don't think it's a portion to share at all.Having said that, I would like to point out that if you are in a hurry, this restaurant is not for you. We stayed around two hours for this lunch ( the restaurant was never full, when we got there, one table besides ours, already eating, and then after we started eating, a few more tables).The restaurant offers mostly vegetarian options, with a selection of vegan options.I also felt like the person who was serving us maybe was new staff to the restaurant as they didn't have the answers when I asked some questions about the menu options being vegan or vegetarian as I was confused about some items on the menu. He then went into the kitchen area to ask a colleague and came back telling me that the heura has egg whites therefore it's not vegan, which left me even more confused as the brand heura is fully vegan. So either they are using some fake heura or they don't know what's vegan or not, which is not very comforting to hear, as I make a lot of efforts to keep my vegan diet.

“Ideal restaurant for eating local and fresh (arrival of the day's catch). The prices are very reasonable, we are not in a “tourist trap” restaurant. Traditions are well respected. The service was very pleasant.
I recommend.“

“Super nice and welcoming place. Italian atmosphere. Super professional employees.
Top food, some of the best I've tried in Italian. Kitchen to view and everything prepared in front of us.
Average price but corresponding to the quality.“

“The portion of fried calamari, delicious but ridiculous in quantity, was more of a tapa. The rich gold. The skewer of lulas (like squid) could be improved. Small quantity and it took a long time to bring it. Many pretensions, but little final result. Avoid, I believe there are better places“

“We came to Aveiro to explore, we went with the intention of having lunch in another restaurant which in turn was full and we came to "stop" at Cais da Tosca.
First impact: calm and cool
Service: very friendly and willing
Food: both starters and main course were very good and very well presented.
And it is for these and other reasons that we leave this recommendation ;)“

“An outstanding dinner spot! The service and attentiveness were unmatched. The meals were divine - the starters in particular were of note with an ingenious fusion of traditional Portugal and Mediterranean flavours that were unforgettable.
They also offer an exceptional wine menu that pair perfectly with the dishes on offer.
I also cannot rave more about the kindness and hospitality of the staff. Elsa in particular provided us with the most outstanding service I have experienced in Portugal.
It would be a loss if you didn’t visit this restaurant.“

“It is a place worth discovering, although it is a little away from the hustle and bustle, it is very worth visiting.
The Robalo a la teja, is simply spectacular and the cod a la teja, ordering half a portion, I can say that two people eat, accompanied by delicious roast potatoes, super tasty.
The price I can say that for the size of the dishes and the supreme quality, it is cheap.
It is run by a couple and their son, they are very friendly, the treatment is very close and familiar.
If you go to Aveiro, don't hesitate to eat there, you won't regret it“

“Good afternoon!

Very welcoming indeed, with professional service from someone who admired the good quality of Portuguese cuisine and put it into practice.

When reading some of the incoherent reviews that I don't agree with, what caught my attention the most was those who don't have the nobility and frankness of attitude to say it personally to the owner and restrict themselves to commenting through these means! It's regrettable!

It gives the impression that they only see defects in everything and they don't know how to admire and encourage qualities.“

“Very good, very attentive service, the caldeirada de peixe and the grilled sea bream very good, the vinho verde good, I will recommend it and I will return. Quality price very good. The fresh fish was brought to the table so we could see the pieces.“

“Spectacular service. We were very well received, the food was excellent ?? and very well served. These grilled cuttlefish were divine ? the only thing was that I asked for minced garlic for the potatoes and when they arrived at the table I had already finished eating ? otherwise everything went very well. I recommend it ??“

“Whenever I'm working in that area, I have lunch or dinner in this space. Good food and plenty of food, the service is also good and the price is €8.00 per person, everything included except dessert.I recommend

Parking: Next to the Continente hypermarket parking lot“

“It was always my favorite in Costa Nova. It recently changed management and was renovated. More modern.
It has lost that essence a bit and, logically, prices have risen quite a bit. We cannot expect that if prices rise throughout Europe they will not do so in Portugal, but that feeling that eating in Portugal was much cheaper and more abundant than in Spain is now over here. Medium-high level prices in Spain and Spanish quantities.
The atmosphere is very good and the staff is super friendly. Even so, I miss that old sailing club and its brass cod.“

“Restaurant with very good food, divine service! You gentlemen are extremely friendly, I highly recommend them! Whenever I asked for something, they brought it right away. They don't accept banging on the table (which is worthy of good respect from other customers). The wine doesn't fall short of expectations, but I prefer the sangria (personal taste). Mr. Manel is a sweet person, he has a huge heart!“

“Choice restaurant in Aveiro. Great food, good atmosphere, staff are always friendly and attentive, even those who are learning.
I recommend the cod with cream, but the rest of the dishes are good too.
Great desserts, when I went there was Abade de Priscos pudding (not so easy to find in Aveiro!), among others that were equally good.
The atmosphere is good for those going for a romantic dinner or with a group.
It has two entrances.
The prices are great for such a good restaurant. Not as expensive as a seaside restaurant, and slightly more expensive than McDonalds.
When people ask me about good restaurants in Aveiro, this is the first one I think of for several years.

Parking: Parking coming soon to the buildings is free.

Kid-friendliness: Many children eat here with their parents.

Wheelchair accessibility: It has an upper entrance (it has two entrances, one at the bottom of the street and the other on the other side) that has no stairs.“

“We say eat there because when we passed we heard from a guide that the food was good at a reasonable price. We ordered the economy menu, 11 euros, it included a plate of grilled sea bream, with roast potatoes and salad, plenty to eat. The fish was delicious. The service was very friendly and pleasant, and they also spoke Portuguese, Spanish and English.“

“We went after the Eel Stew. We are the third of the four generations that we know and that keeps the taste for this dish in our DNA. We were left with some very thick eels, but the taste of the stew (animated by the moira) was at the level of the best we've eaten (and we have Zé Zé as our standard). Congratulations!“

“The food is very good, maybe a little overpriced but it had plenty of options, and as far as I've tasted, they're all very good, so you can choose according to your pocket and always get a nice experience. The service is excellent, so is the ambient, with nice music of the fit-for-everyone kind. What more can I say? I'm desperately becoming a regular...“

“We have been several times and it is a good restaurant. This last time we ordered 'peixe galo' (Saint Peter's rooster) fried with turnip top rice and very good. That with wine, a starter and a vegetable puree, €69. Recommended.“

“I start with the reception of the employees, who are undoubtedly one of the warmest and most genuine, and absolutely nothing was missed.As for the snacks and tapas, simply fabulous! Made with wonderful taste and a very diverse wine cellar. A place to visit in Praia da Barra that I will certainly repeat and that needed to liven up and make holidaymakers and locals enjoy.Paula Abreu“

“Everything was delicious. We had grilled lizard (pork), sardines and cod. The garnishes are also very delicious, especially the roasted peppers. It took them a while to bring the food but it was a Sunday in August and with the place and terrace full, it was understandable.“

“Delicious restaurant that we have eaten at many times.
It's worth it every time.
The service is also quick and the interior design is modern.
Come back every time.

Parking: Parking in front of the door, and there is a large parking lot to the right of the restaurant.“

“(Translated by Google) Very well. An authentic eating house, without great pretensions but with good food and plenty of it. There are only two options for the dish of the day, but it is worth it if you are in the area and you like the places that the people who live there frequent. A very fast and friendly service.(Original)Muy bien. Una casa de comidas auténtica, sin grandes pretensiones pero con buena comida y abundante. Solo hay dos opciones de plato del día, pero merece la pena si estás por la zona y te gustan los lugares que frecuentan las personas que viven por allí. Un servicio muy rápido y cordial.“

“(Translated by Google) The site is spacious, comfortable and well placed. And real Portuguese food, with quality and abundance. A success if you choose it. For me, one of the best in a long time. And without the pageantry of the tourist restaurants in the city of Aveiro.(Original)El sitio es amplio.comodo y bien puesto. Y la comida portuguesa de verdad, con calidad y abundancia. Un acierto si lo eliges. Para mi, de los mejores en mucho tiempo. Y sin el boato de los turísticos restaurantes de la ciudad de Aveiro.

Parking: Parking grande en LiDL. Junto al restaurante“

“Everything is great, the food is great, the system they have for assigning a table is phenomenal, they give you a device and when it rings you have an assigned table which allows you not to be at the door waiting. The attention of the waiters was very good and friendly. I would repeat.“

“The food was good and very well served. The atmosphere is calm and pleasant and most of the staff are very friendly, with the exception of a Brazilian waitress who was quite rude, spoke aggressively and threw things abruptly on the table, which was the only negative point of the dinner. , which prevents me from giving this restaurant maximum points.“

“The reviews we have read to enter have verified the quality, taste and abundance of the food. We loved it. What we ordered was delicious. It's a shame I couldn't finish it, really. We were surprised by the hundreds of cockles that were below. The broth, spectacular. Good service too, attentive and fast.
Thank you very much team!!!! We will return without a doubt.
I'm not a fan of giving 5's to reviews, but you deserve it.“

“Good seafood restaurant.
The food and service are very good. The seafood platter was very large, although, from my point of view, there were too many prawns and few 'legs'. You can see them in the photos. As a recommendation, it would be good to put what it contains in the letter.
On the other hand, when you arrive they welcome you with a couple of tapas, which you gladly eat, and then they charge you. It's not much, but they do it.
Recommended, but you have to know this.“

“Very attentive, we arrived with 1 baby and they immediately tried to arrange a table that was practical for us, with a baby chair.
The lady who served the table was always very quick to serve.
Absolutely affordable prices, €8 per person on average.
Modernized and welcoming space.

Kid-friendliness: Has a baby high chair“

“Este lugar, aunque ubicado en una callejuela un poco escondida, realmente vale la pena visitar. La calidad de la comida y el servicio es magnífica. Llegamos casi a la hora de cierre, pero aun así nos permitieron comer sin prisa. Eli nos atendió de manera encantadora, haciendo de nuestra experiencia algo muy especial. Altamente recomendado!“

“The best grilled fish we've ever eaten! Fresh, at the right point, top natural flavor! We ate the sea grill for 2 people and it was so good that we ate two ? (there were 2 of us ?). Not because it is poorly served, because there is a good quantity and well balanced, but because it tastes so good.In terms of service, people don't talk much or interact much but they are not obnoxious and are competent. Repeating ?“

“Local not very big but comfortable. The staff is very friendly and they serve you very well. The food (it is a place to eat fish, of course) is very delicious.
The rice with seafood (brothy) is spectacular.
The only complicated thing is the reservation system they have: you can book to wait in order of arrival, that is, if they sign up for you at 2:00 p.m., when you arrive they will accommodate you as soon as they can (they say a maximum of 20 minutes).
For us, that discomfort was worth it because of how well we ate.“

“A beach bar with a "zen" terrace. Good atmosphere and good appearance.

You lose a little by trying to be elitist but forget that you are on a popular beach.

Poor customer service.

Interesting ambient music. Highlights include the themed parties that take place from time to time. Excellent location, right on top of one of Vagueira's walls.

Prices slightly higher, attractive and varied snack menu. I recommend.“

“A very nice place for dinner in a lively and friendly atmosphere of families and friends. Nice and helpful staff (Carlos, best regards). Along with the menu, we were brought a small starter in the form of delicious olives and bread. We were very surprised by the abundance of portions, because we only wanted to eat an evening salad (the time was after 10 p.m.), and we were served practically a dinner-sized dish, which we barely finished. Plus a glass of orange juice. Anyway... See for yourself.“

“(Translated by Google) Small but extremely pleasant space for lunch with an executive menu, which is ideal for work trips with little time.Excellent attentive service.What I ate was very tasty, everyday food with a different touch from the chef(Original)Espaço pequeno mas extremamente agradável para almoço com menu executivo, o que em deslocações de trabalho com pouco tempo é o ideal.Excelente atencioso atendimento.O que comi estava muito saboroso, uma comida do dia a dia com um toque diferente do chef“
