50 Best Mediterranean Restaurants near Azoia

“One of the best restaurants I've ever eaten at! A refined space, thought out in detail. Very elegant and rustic decor! Very friendly, super helpful, high care and professional service!

We ate fillet steaks with mushroom sauce, black linguini with shrimp and octopus in a lagareiro style. Everything is excellent and at very affordable prices given the good quality too!

We also ordered some desserts, but without a doubt the cheesecake is the best ✨

I will be back and I highly recommend it! See you soon!“

“Perfect food, super nice and humorous service. The wind blew my wine glass over and the waiter immediately came and refilled it for me free of charge. This is very, very remarkable and not self-evident. P.s. the olives in advance are great.“

“Great restaurant conveniently located in the centre of Sintra. Staff are very attentive and professional. Food is well presented and well cooked with full of flavour. I would recommend both for a relaxed dinner as well as a romantic occasion. To be safe book ahead but when we went in, there were plenty of free tables, albeit it was an early dinner“

“A relaxed and very nice place, with domestic tappas and some main dishes.
We ate some tapas and burgers. The burger was one of the top 3 that I ate. The waiter was great and translated the Portuguese menu into brilliant English. Definitely worth a return visit soon.

“Revelation.
Very nice, professional and helpful service. Nice welcome, excellent proactive contact with guests.
You can feel that the approach to food is very good. The menu is not overloaded, the dishes are partly made from home-made products.
We can definitely recommend what we ate: Camaro a Tasco, Choco Frito, Cacholeira. And delicious ice cream.
The background music is also spot on, and there's a local atmosphere so you don't feel like you're a tourist.
Thank you. We will try to come back someday.“

“The food is prepared with care and cooked to perfection. I recommend the beef cheek with gratin. The fried seafood mix is also a great pick. Service can be slow due to being overcrowded, yet it is worth the wait and the staff is kind and professional. This location has both interior and exterior seating, keep “

“We just spent a couple of days in Cascais and went twice. Once for lunch and once for dinner. Food is great, cool laidback atmosphere. Service is super friendly. Just a bit slow at the end when we wanted to pay and leave (both times we had to ask for the check multiple times). But a cool place to eat and have a drink nonetheless.“

“Best seaside dining option in Cascais! All seats have a view of the beautiful beach and harbor and the food was so good that we went back twice! Highly recommend the breaded squid. As a peanut butter lover I was pleasantly surprised to find a peanut butter, caramel, and chocolate dessert on the menu. ❤️“

“A really lovely late lunch/early dinner. Sat outside and had a great time. We got piri piri prawns, breaded cuttlefish, bruschetta, sautéed mushrooms, honey sausage - would recommend all of those! Sangria was great and we tried the port too. The service was excellent, very kind people and felt like a very authentic experience and opportunity to learn more about Sintra. It’s about 5 minutes from the station so ideal for the start or end of a day trip. Also, they have soft blankets if it feels a little chilly. A highlight of our holiday and a meal we won’t forget!“

“Sehr tolles Strandrestaurant. Freundliche Bedienung mit großer und leckerer Speisenauswahl. Die Weinkarte ist hervorzuheben. Für ein Strandlokal angenehme Musikbeschallung. Man kann auch vor dem eigentlichen Lokal in angenehmer Atmosphäre an Holzstühlen und -tischen Platz nehmen. Die sanitären Einrichtungen sind sehr gut. Insgesamt empfehlenswert.“

“Lovely restaurant tucked into a beautiful street in Colares, Portugal. Our dining companion had the tasty Shrimp soup and we had the fresh fish entrees. We had a wonderful leisurely lunch with wine and good companions. This spot has a serene vibe with beautiful food and scenery.“

“Food with a high quality product, generous dishes and a very good price, spectacular octopus and incredible prawns with coconut sauce, charming and very attentive staff, all accompanied by wonderful views. A must visit to eat well at a good price.“

“The place is nice and the staff is friendly and helpful.

The pasta is served… differently. You won’t get the plate with the pasta directly. The waiter will come with a different portable table on which they have the pans in which the pasta was cooked. Then they’ll put the pasta on the plate in front of you. It’s stupid, but for some reason, really enjoyable.

We really liked it and we recommend the restaurant.

If you go, make sure to order some wine, it will make everything even better.“

“Really nice place out in cascais. Service was great, prawns and fish too. The only thing (which was probably on us) was that the octopus just tasted of olive oil which took over a bit, but it also said on the menu “cooked in olive oil” so. Lovely view and great location“

“A delightful time was had here. This is a teeny restaurant, run by a husband and wife who clearly take a lot of pride over every detail - from the decor and ambience, to the quality of every ingredient on the recipe. The hospitality was generous and appreciated - and the food was delicious. I had a couple of the starters which were interesting and very tasty. A good time was had by all. 10/10 would recommend.“

“I can't give it 5 stars because the service left a little to be desired, we rushed as soon as we arrived to order because they closed at 3:00 p.m. (but they accept a reservation at 2:30 p.m.)… Otherwise everything was good, good cuisine (the fish and very delicious grilled octopus) and reasonable price.“

“EXCELLENT! A warm and family place. Typical and varied dishes but above all very good! The desserts are homemade by the owner and they are delicious! The staff is attentive and gives good advice.
We had a lovely time, we'll come back for sure. Advice, book.“

“Nice restaurant with very pleasant team.
The moules are really Good especially the Gratinados as a starter.
As for the main dishes, it would be great if we can have a refill of moules because even if they are big moules it is not enough for someone with a great appetite.
As non-alcoholic, we didn't try the gin

Kid-friendliness: Share one plate between two kids.“

“The food was good, the plates were quite filling, the prices were consistent with what was served and the location and the attentive and friendly staff but I want to make special mention that a client came with his dog and as soon as he sat down they immediately gave him water and even gave him water. They gave a prize. They were attentive and loving even with the dog and for me it is something super important. The place is spacious and has a terrace but it fills up quickly.

Parking: It's crazy to take the car to Sintra

Wheelchair accessibility: Sintra itself is a place that is not very accessible due to the number of slopes you encounter along the way.“

“I had a simply stunning lunch, starting with the service which was excellent, the chef's touch of refinement in the presentation of the starters and desserts was divine.
Everything was very good, from the preparation to the perfect combinations of ingredients.
A really top lunch in every aspect.“

“It is the best place to eat and dine in Sintra. Traditional and homemade food. Professional, attentive and close service. The price is affordable and they make you feel at home. Without a doubt if we return to Sintra we will repeat for sure.“

“If we return to Sintra, we will definitely repeat. Homemade food and very good service. The dishes are abundant and at a good price.

First we ordered the grelhado cheese which was very good. The house offers you starters at the table and if you don't want them you just have to tell them so they don't charge you for them. For the main course we ordered a bacalhau with cream and a maminha. The food was 10 and we were full. The attention is very close and very good even if we are tourists, they treat you as if you were one of the locals. They have made us feel very comfortable. My congratulations to the place for achieving such good results in Sintra, where most restaurants are expensive and offer poor quality.“

“During our two week vacation in Portugal, we enjoyed our by far best dinner at Marea.
The fish was excellent and the service was attentive and friendly.
We came back another two nights and would visit Hugo again anytime. :)
We highly recommend this restaurant!!!“

“Excellent atmosphere, good service and excellent food.
The only negative point is that the tables were too close together, leading to little privacy.
-
We went back there after 1 year and the quality of the dishes dropped a lot, making it an expensive restaurant that just served “ok” food.“

“Vegetarian restaurant with vegan options, there is no classical menu but you choose by sample dishes. Colorful interior, very nice staff and the food was tasty! Only thing is that I was wondering if they throw out all the display dishes each day. Updated from previous review on 2024-12-24“

“For dinner we ordered some ham croquettes, some garlic prawns and a picaña, and we couldn't say which was the best choice. The owners 100/10, impeccable. He tells you places to visit, events that are happening these days, everything. Highly recommended and a pleasure to meet you. We'll be back soon!“

“A quality restaurant. Excellent service. Product quality. A magnificent kitchen. A most pleasant atmosphere. Beautiful dining room and very nice terrace. 20 years of customers, every time we are in Cascais we eat there at least once. The price depends on what is requested. It can be very reasonable. And if the price is not the problem (it will never be exaggerated, Cascais is not Cannes) you will surely get it right.“

“Having tried many restaurants in Cascais Marina, Trium is hands down the best.

Owned by three Brazilian sisters, the place blends very good vibes with a warm, inviting atmosphere. The food menu has an amazing variety of Portuguese food.

Everything that we ordered was good, cod fish, tomahawk, tuna. The food is definitely made with love.

The staff are super friendly and knowledgeable, making great recommendations. With a great wine list and creative cocktails, Trium is a top spot for a fantastic meal. Can’t wait to go back!“

“Great food and great service. Food is ready in a short time and you get to enjoy it in a really comfy area. The server that helped us was specially nice and made the experience better during our visit. I ordered the octupus and was impressed by the flavor and texture.

Wheelchair accessibility: Impossible access on wheelchair. It has a small entry with stairs.“

“We recently spent a few nights in Estoril and found this gem of a restaurant there. It is on a side so, a little hard to find but well worth the effort. The food was so fresh and beautifully presented. Small, intimate dining room. Lovely service.“

“(Translated by Google) Typical Portuguese food. Very good and abundant. Quick and very friendly service.No air conditioning and it was too hot(Original)Típica comida portuguesa. Muy buena y abundante. Servicio rápido y muy amables.Sin aire acondicionado y hacía demasiado calor“

“In a small corner of Cascais, close but far from the hustle and bustle and mass tourism... respectful of the environment and friendly. Mediterranean food accompanied by local wines and you could even say artisan... I think it was clear, Thank you for sharing your stories, your ideas and your meals. Until returning.“

“Honestly, it's been a while since I've been to a restaurant where I left so satisfied. Everything was great. A good balance between price/quality. Good quality dishes and the food is made to order. We ordered several dishes and they were all good without anything outstanding. Sardines, bitoque, secretos, fried mackerel and Algarve squid. All these dishes were very well served. House wine could be better. The staff was very friendly and professional. I recommend!“

“I had the most incredible lunch at Caricato. Greatly situated with views of Serra de Sintra and close to the beach, what makes this restaurant special is the truly remarkable food and wine offerings. The grilled squid was an absolute delight, bursting with flavor. To make it even more special, the staff is warm and helpful which made us feel right at home. The cooks are undeniably talented; every dish is a feast! Caricato is definitely my favourite restaurant in the area.“

“Food was delicious and service was over the top well done. Delicious appetizers. Fresh fish shown to pick out, then prepared with our choice of sides. We were seated next to area where we could watch it being prepared. Warm plates upon serving. Mojitos were better than from Cuba or Miami. Desert of warm chocolate cake paired with a raspberry sorbet. Everything was delicious. I highly recommend!“

“Great little place. So glad we stopped by after long day of walking in Sintra. Everything on the main square was so busy and we just wanted to be able to get away a little from it. Walked up the stairs a found this gem
Food was delicious. Tuna steak and octopus dinner both grilled to perfection.
If you are in Sintra , stop by.“

“We stumbled on this restaurant in a car park on the coastal walk from Parede to Estoril. How fortunate we were. Brilliant cliff top location, excellent service, delicious food and drinks. We had a generous shared board, sangria and coffee, all excellent!“

“Excellent food, the cod was delicious but the octopus was DIVINE! ???
The service provided by the Brazilian girl and the Brazilian boy was wonderful, I felt at home.
I recommend it and every time I return to Lisbon I will go to Cascais to eat octopus again.☺️???

Parking: There are many options but as it was in August, it took me a while to find a place.

Wheelchair accessibility: Yes, it's right at street level“

“Several times I go to get chicken and other foods.
From breaded chicken etc.
And all the food is very good and of high quality.
The best steakhouse I've ever been to.
The owner is an impeccable person.
Thanks“

“We ate here yesterday & had a lovely experience from the moment we arrived until we left.
The ambience was friendly but not intrusive, food was delish, we had the mushroom starter, fish of the day & the bburger, all of which were superb, along with the wine & beer & reasonably priced.
A hidden gem indeed“

“Zo lekker gegeten hier. We hadden een stukje vlees met champignon roomsaus en ham, verrukkelijk. Alle andere dingen op de kaart klonken ook lekker. Voor de rest heeft het binnen wat meer sfeer dan buiten, maar heeft ons niet tegen gehouden om buiten te zitten.“

“A classic Portuguese bar with homemade food at a very good price, of which there are few left. Feixoada, lizard, golden grelhada... all very very delicious ?. The young waiter was very fast when it came to taking orders, picking up, etc...perhaps a little more calm would improve the experience. Otherwise super recommended.

Kid-friendliness: They accept children and have a children's menu for €8“

“This is the second time we have been to this restaurant because it is in a great location in the Colares area. The lamb is undoubtedly one of the stars of the restaurant and was very good but what really surprised me was the Duck with Orange which was simply divine, very well seasoned and accompanied by delicious rice. I highly recommend it, the starters were also very good and the portions are fair for the prices charged.“

“Very knowledgeable staff that gave you confidence in what you were eating. Well run and quick service despite being very busy. We sat outside which was a bit cramped, inside there is a bit more space. We shared Tarka Dahl, mushroom rice and roti and it was delicious and full of flavour.“

“A great restaurant in Cascais for inexpensive, delicious food. The fish is very delicious. The employees are friendly, the service is fast, the atmosphere is very sweet, the prices are much more affordable than other places. If you happen to be there, be sure to stop by.“

“Humble and honest….It immediately felt like home. If you expect something spectacular, go somewhere else. This restaurant offers quality food at reasonable prices, but what makes it special is the unobstrusive yet attentive and warm behavior of their staff.“

“Service was super friendly and quick. Tuna ceviche was life changing - completely converted. Cod Timbale was tasty but very rich. Octopus Rice was OUTSTANDING. Could not put our forks down. Was so flavourful, and the octopus was so tender and not fishy at all. House white wine was very nice.
Such a cozy, authentic restaurant - off the beaten path. Would 10/10 recommend.“

“Seems most of the guests here only swing by to grab a drink.

We did the opposite and ordered a lot of food instead!

Staff is friendly, but if was sometimes hard to communicate with the young waiter. We wanted the sauce on the side for our kids steak. Instead, it was drowned in sauce.

The shrimp skewer was not that special. And the veal slices were a bit chewy.

But other than that. Everything was really good!

My favorites: Carpaccio, steak, foie gras and 21 ceviche“

“Had an amazing family and friends dinner here recently. Easily the best pizzas we have enjoyed in many years. We got a selection of pepperoni, black truffle and other pizzas and they were all great. We asked for and ordered the servers recommendations and he steered us very well. Family run business, and clearly run with passion and customer service in mind. The are only about 24 covers inside and a few small tables outside to book your table to avoid disappointment. Would highly recommend, and would happily return if/when back in the area in the future.“

“I have had the pleasure of dining at Buzio on 3 occasions now. It is without doubt, one of my favorite restaurants in the world. The obvious is the incredibly fresh seafood from the best purveyors in PT. The less obvious is the service. It is as good as what you would find in Michelin-starred restaurants in Paris—professional, invisible and incredibly pleasant. The ambiance is always wonderful, with large families and friends enjoying celebratory meals. The wine list features some incredible local winemakers, whose wines pair very well with the dishes. Even the bread is top notch. Fair warning, it is not inexpensive. Love this place.

Parking: Parking is super easy as the restaurant has its own private lot with an easy rear entry.“
