Once again, we had an excellent meal and service at Visconde da Luz. We often bring visitors there, and to a person they are delighted by both the quality of the food, and the outstanding hospitality that the staff consistently brings to its guests. Their cataplana is magnificent, truly world class. I guarantee that you’ll want to return after having dined there once.

We had a fantastic lunch yesterday! First time after years of saying we were going to try it. Amêijoas and robalo were perfectly prepared as you would expect. Service by Marco was also perfect. Unexpected was the dessert wine list with many old bottles of vintage and colheita ports.

Excellent food, outstanding attention. Friendly and professional staff. We always come back to this traditional restaurant in Cascais centre

This restaurant was highly recommended by good friends whose taste we trust. We visited Cascais, and made straight for the restaurant specifically for the sea bass baked in sea salt. It was not only the best baked fish I have ever had (and that is saying a lot), the fish was fluffy and moist, but the service and ambiance were amazing. Classically Portuguese!

One of the best restaurants on the Cascais-Estoril coast. Portuguese cuisine d elitoral.. Good fish and shellfish, good meat, rice dishes... Excellent cuisine and attention to table service. Adequate price, variable as requested of course. Nice place with a nice terrace inside

Mostly portoguese restaurant, nothing special. They have a very liquid lentil dal with a lot of lemon and a vegetable paella, all of which was not easy to digest for me. At least the waiter was very nice.

I needed to find a place to eat a late lunch with my grandma when we stopped in Cascais as part of a tour. After wandering a little we stumbled on this place, it seems as though there aren't a lot of vegan options in the area. The vegan paella was alright, the flavour was good but it was pretty simple, nothing I couldn't make at home, but it was nice to be able to have something in a pinch, and sitting outside was nice.

This space envelopes you in a 'Tavern on the Green' manner, as you watch the people in the Parque from under timbered ceilings and dark paneling. The wide variety of shellfish and seafood are their specialty yet the partridge should tempt you, too, in its velvety brown gravy and roasted veggies. Sea bream in a dlat crust was served table side with perfect veggies. Everything about this meal, this place, the servers is 5 star.
One of our favourites and never disappoints. Don’t expect anything fancy, but high quality food (we always choose a fish dish), perfectly cooked always and exemplary service.

Very warm welcome on arrival and lovely waiters throughout our meal. We all enjoyed our meals and would especially recommend the spider crab starter, sea bass Portuguese style and fillet steak. We chose the house red & white wine and both were fine.

Cascais is something of a tourist town, especially in the summer. But if you want a sample of the brilliance of the local cuisine, you need go no farther than Visconde da Luz. I'm an immigrant, a local for a year and a half, and this is one of two places I bring visitors to impress them with the idyllic nature of my adoptive home. The service is outstanding, the food is delectable, the ambiance is agreeable, and the restaurant consistently delivers a superlative experience without being fussy. This is not a place that's going to attract trend-setters or Michelin-star groupies... and that's just fine. It's honest food, prepared with skill and care and love. If Anthony Bourdain were still alive, I would take him here, and I'm confident he would love it as much as I do.
