Portuguese Restaurants in Aveiro, PT

“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.“

“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.“

“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!!“

“Two of us had dinner, while we waited, we ordered some cod pasties, they were very delicious and freshly made. Afterwards we ordered a main dish each and decided on Four Cheese Risotto and Chorizo ​​Risotto, both portions were abundant, tasty and you could tell that they were homemade, not at all greasy.
From drinking a half-liter jug ​​of wine home, white, fruity and rich
For dessert Trapalhada and Nata du cieu, delicious.
The service was very attentive, from Naiara, with a good description of the dishes we could order, which helped us choose correctly.
Another good detail: the music was Portuguese, very pleasant, which accompanied the moment.
It seems obvious, but we were in many restaurants and none of them had Portuguese music.
100% recommended, and the next time we return to Aveiro, we will surely go.
I only put photos of the desserts, since we forgot about the dishes because we were so excited to start eating.“

“Being Sardinian, I was immediately intrigued when I saw a restaurant focused on suckling pig. I have to say, even though I'm used to eating it in a completely different way, the experience was excellent.

The rind was crispy, the price-quality ratio was great, and the meat, fries, salad, and sauce were all very good. The pairing they do here in Portugal is also interesting—they eat the meat while drinking sparkling wine.

The atmosphere was very nice and modern. The staff was very friendly and quick with everything.“

“Pleasant discovery! Located on the edge of the canal, very pretty setting, very good meal. Special mention for the waitress who took the time to understand us because we don't speak the language, this is not the case everywhere, the smile from start to finish, honestly well done, that's what we expect when we are on vacation and we found it here. Thank you again ? “Foi muito bom” from my son ? (the waitress will recognize herself ?)“

“The place does not attract attention, it looks like a kebab from the outside, but everything was very good.
And the staff of 10 are very friendly and professional.
The cod is delicious but we have never tried anything like the sea bream.
It would be a sin to leave without trying their homemade desserts... scandalous
?“

“Five years since my last visit. The bacalhau as natas is still exquisite and the waiters are endearing: serious, but friendly. As with most restaurants in Aveiro, they have gone all out with their prices and I estimate that they have raised them by at least 50%. I remember that the octopus was around 27 euros and now it is over 40 euros. Very tender, yes.
It continues to fill up day after day, so the rise is normal. It will cost me more, but I will keep going because I love it.“

“We loved the place, the service was very good, the owner was very attentive and friendly. Even though we arrived almost at the kitchen closing time, they didn't give us a single problem, on the contrary, they invited us to some sardines (very delicious) while they brought us the food. We ordered a very complete grilled fish and the fresh fish at a very good price. I definitely recommend it and I will return on my next trip.“

“The restaurant offers delicious food and a lively atmosphere filled with locals, which speaks to its authenticity and quality. However, we were surprised to find a 20% tip automatically added to our bill, written only in Portuguese, without any prior notice. This left us feeling a bit taken advantage of, as it seemed like this charge might not apply to locals. While the food was great, this lack of transparency dampened our overall experience.“

“A cozy restaurant that offers a very nice & varied selection of starters, second courses, drinks. One can go light for lunch, or more for a satisfying dinner. Presentation of dishes was inviting. Serving sizes fit for sharing. Palate pleasing flavors. We enjoyed the experience.“

“Having discovered it yesterday at noon, we went back this evening because frankly it's so good, great value for money.
We see that this is not a “tourist trap” place. I especially love their “sande de pernil com queijo da serra”. Their samoussa is great too.
For those who love beer, try craft beer ?“

“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“

“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.“

“2024-07 I came across this restaurant by chance, so as not to go to the more touristy ones, I was passing by the door and I liked the space and decided to go in.
? - Very affordable prices.
?️ - Fried mackerel with tomato rice✅, it was very tasty and well prepared.
?️ - Broken Eggs ❗- It was medium, the eggs were not fried, they were dry and the potatoes were pre-frozen.
?- House wine ✅.
? - I didn't eat it because I had soft eggs to ruin them ☺️.
?️- Service ✅, it was excellent, especially the guy at the bar, who even recommended the boat trip through the store next door, making the trip cheaper.
I also ended up buying the souvenirs in the same store with a 10% discount.
I will come back again if I pass through Aveiro.“

“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.“

“We went last week for dinner after our trip to Aveiro. We ordered a grilled meat and grilled salmon, and both dishes were very delicious. The meat was on point and the variety of meats, in addition to the fruit accompaniment, was appreciated. The treatment by the owner was incredible, as if we were family, very attentive at all times. We liked it so much that we returned the next day, and despite being full, they found a place for us to have dinner.
We will definitely return when we are on vacation in the area. Totally recommended restaurant.“

“We were greeted by a really nice waiter. So we decided to have lunch here. I was a little disappointed with offerings in the menu. I was looking for an octopus dish in particular. Nevertheless, I settled for the steak and it was ok. The others order fish and they also liked it. The only reason I'm give 4* star is that the service was really professional and friendly.“

“Awesome. The best cakes I have ever eaten.
Very friendly.
If you can, sit at the outside tables on the other side, next to the canal. The views are beautiful and it is very good. For that you have to go around the block. Totally recommended.“

“It has enchanted me. The place is nice and well located. I found the food delicious and abundant. In our case we ordered cod and beef and we were full. If you are a good eater, ask for a third dish but light. I liked the house wine (Casa do Canto). 3 euros drink. We didn't need a reservation and the service was fast and friendly. Total price for two people 43 euros. I recommend it to you.“

“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.“

“A pleasant surprise
We opted for Mar e Terra served in a traditional moliceiro, with food well prepared with good quality products created by the owner of the restaurant (congratulations, a true artist).
Very welcoming and friendly staff.
I highly recommend it, certainly an experience to repeat.“

“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“

“A Pleasant Surprise!We opted for the veal chunks and the Terra e Mar dish. Both were well prepared, the meat was on point, with quality products and in generous portions.The staff is very friendly and helpful, making the environment even more pleasant.I'm just sorry I didn't discover 2 Dukes sooner.“

“An essential place in Aveiro to avoid the tourist. Green soup, squid, hake a little overcooked for our taste, with salad and pinto beans with onion, delicious dessert and coffee. A bottle of rich green wine. €50 and the professional and very nice staff. Portuguese atmosphere.“

“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.“

“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.“

“I arrived at Aveiro Station in the morning and had a sandwich and Nata Coffee.
It seems like a hangout for the locals~ haha. It must be a local restaurant with a lot of local customers. The sandwiches and bread are really delicious. The ham and sausage are also great. I miss the sandwiches I ate here so much.“

“(Translated by Google) Another good restaurant in Sever do Vouga. Good veal, oven rice! Fair prices. Sr Junior is a friendly and experienced person!(Original)Mais um bom restanturante em Sever do Vouga. Boa vitela, arroz de forno! Preços justos. Sr Junior é uma pessoa simpática e experiente!“

“Very delicious food. On the outskirts of Aveiro from the tourist crowd.
The powder with picanton curry sauce was incredible!!
Cod as gratin, delicious. Of course a cool green wine.
The dessert, a creamy mango, perfect, without much sweetness.
The Portugal game was on, the restaurant was not crowded. Very quiet.“

“This is an upperscaleish churrasqueria in Esgueira. The food is high quality and tasty, but the portions are a little smaller than comparable places. The atmosphere makes up for it. The service is great and the staff is attentive and friendly.“

“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“

“Great place to try typical Portuguese food. The duck rice with gratin cheese is spectacular and so is the cod with cream. Plus the starters (Serra cheese) are incredible! The prices are very affordable and it is well located in the center.Eating at the tables inside the restaurant is a little more expensive than ordering at the counter and eating at the tables in the shopping center, but it is clearly more comfortable and the service is great and very fast. To repeat for sure!“

“We "stumbled" on this restaurant after visiting the "Feira dos 28", a free market held in Aveiro every 28th of the month at the exhibition center.The atmosphere is friendly and the staff friendly. For lunch there is the fixed menu (three different options) and for dinner the full menu.We had lunch and there was the inevitable soup and a choice of a second course representing regional dishes, followed by a dessert.Drink and coffee included.Good and plentiful food, Portuguese restaurant prices.

Parking: Street parking. A little further on from the restaurant side there is a large area with a slightly larger car park.“

“We had lunch as part of a tour group, and everything went like clockwork. My travel companion and I both had the pork cheeks with mashed potatoes. After some initial squeamishness, we were blown away. So tender, with a delicate pepper spice. The potatoes were the perfect consistency in the very light pepper gravy. If there was anything I missed, it would be a side of vegetables to round out the meat and potatoes. Dessert was a choice of salted caramel chocolate.cake or a fruit salad and both received kudos from our group.“

“I tasted French cheese, a typical dish, good and with a strong flavour. A single dish with its chips can be a complete meal. The waiter was kind in bringing us the dish already divided and into two different plates having told him that we would have done it in half. Good fries and beer. The location is a little dark inside, better to eat on the outdoor patio if possible.“

“(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.“

“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!“

“Quick service, everyone was friendly, delicious food, pleasant atmosphere.
I loved the French bread with ham, cheese and butter, I was missing a bread like that on the grill, the gallon was good too. I ate a Mil Folhas for the first time, I found it difficult to eat, the dough is very hard, but it's still delicious, but I couldn't eat it all because it's a little sickening, but it was still good. Thanks.“

“Very good service and excellent food. Room staff very friendly and attentive. A beautiful, welcoming dining room, ideal for a good meal with family or friends. Very well prepared cod, very well served meat. We liked it and will be doing it again on the next visit.“

“(Translated by Google) Congratulations on the excellent feijoada!!! We weren't in person at the restaurant, but we ate at home. We received referrals from friends and used the take away service. The feijoada was very well prepared, with excellent seasoning and flavor!!! Worth it!!! Thanks!!!(Original)Parabéns pela excelente feijoada!!! Não estivemos presencialmente no restaurante, mas comemos em casa. Recebemos a indicação de amigos e utilizamos o serviço de take away. A feijoada foi muito bem preparada, com excelente tempero e sabor!!! Valeu a pena!!! Obrigado!!!“

“Typical traditional place to eat a good Portuguese Francesinha with its homemade fries.
Attentive and friendly staff.
It is obvious that they are years old but they have known how to adapt with a brief but essential menu.
You can't miss it if you come to Aveiro.“

“(Translated by Google) We prefer to eat outside the restaurant, I think the inside is small, but it suits me. It's not the best restaurant but quiet environment, value is a little high, but it was worth it.(Original)Preferimos comer na parte de fora do restaurante, acho a parte interna pequena, mas me atende. Não é melhor restaurante porém ambiente tranquilo, valor é um pouco alto, mas valeu a pena.

Parking: Normalmente estaciono um pouco mais longe, devido ser no centro histórico de São Sebastião.“

“If you’re looking for the authentic hole-in-the-wall Portuguese churrasqueria experience, this is it. The food is great - try the chicken or ribs - and the portions are generous. The service is right on - arrive before noon or after 2:00 or you will be waiting for a table. And the atmosphere is hole in the wall. A little warm at times and almost always crowded but friendly and lively.“

“We really liked our Grelhada Mista dish, two people can eat it and it is super good. We ordered that plus a water plus 2 Finos all for €22. The attention is 3 stars. I feel like we didn't like it very much. The staff didn't explain much about the dishes. Atmosphere. 3 stars more o At least we felt that the tables are very close together and we couldn't sit well since the one in the back or the front had all the space but the 5-star food apart, you could share a single plate for two.“

“(Translated by Google) I ate the traditional ovos moles dessert. It was good. We got to the end of the program and the lady was nice and served us.(Original)Am mâncat desertul traditional ovos moles. A fost bun. Am ajuns la final de program și doamna a fost drăguță și ne-a deservit.“

“(Translated by Google) Excellent coffee. I've been going for years and the staff is always very friendly. Good food for a light meal and good prices.(Original)Excelente café. Vou há anos e o staff é sempre muito simpático. Boa comida para uma refeição ligeira e bons preços.“

“(Translated by Google) Beautiful place and great service. Food is good but not for the price. It leaves something to be desired in the environment, as it is a bit noisy as the rooms can accommodate a lot of people, including large group dinners.Still, overall it's a worthwhile experience and one that I recommend.(Original)Local lindo e atendimento ótimo. Comida é boa mas não ao nível do preço. Deixa a desejar no ambiente, por ser um pouco barulhento visto que as salas conseguem ter muita gente, incluindo jantares grandes de grupo.Ainda assim, no geral é uma experiência que vale a pena e que recomendo.

Parking: Muitos lugares“
