36 Best Seafood Restaurants in Cascais

“Above expectations: tasty food, cool atmosphere sitting at the tables in the street and very gentle snd caring staff.
Had dinner for 2. We were welcomed with some slices of bread accompanied by persil and garlic butter. We shared and enjoyed all we ordered: stuffed shrimps with tomato snd garlic base, grilled squid (served with white rice) and polpo a la gallega. All was amazing, but we “had to” take a second time the shrimps, so to enjoy more shrimp and use the tomato and garlic soup as a top for the rice we got with the squid. The rice topped with the tasty soup turned into an unexpected and delicious course.
We finally took a lemon mousse topped with crumbled biscuits: a fresh and delicious way to end the dinner. Highly recommended to go, and suggested to book a table says in advance.“

“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“

“The fish cataplana is impressive as is the rice with seafood. We had a white wine that the waiter recommended and it was spectacular. Super recommended. It's a pleasure to dine in a place like this because of its good product and good price.“

“Wow!! We stopped into this place after a long drive to Cascais. Not knowing what to expect we were pleasantly surprised when we walked in. The Beautiful ambiance and views makes for a beautiful dinning experience. A little on the pricier side but the food and service is on the higher end on the scale. I had the bacalao with potatoes and my husband had the fried filet of sole. Both portions were very good size and the filet of sole came with tomato rice and salad. We also had the vegetable soup which was delicious. Be ware they set your table with a bunch of apps that you didn’t order and even if you just taste it you’ll be charged. Once we got to our table the table was set with olives, bread cheese and some minced rabbit dish, We asked what it was and sent it back because no one in our party ate rabbit. The cheese alone was 23euros so make sure you want it before you start your meal. The view is beautiful and its a wonderful way to have lunch or dinner.“

“I am not vegan, but I am dairy free and gluten free. This was an excellent fusion tapas restaurant to come to—there are so many options, everything is labeled with allergen markers, and the staff understand food allergies/restrictions. Staff was also super friendly. A beautiful view, as well!“

“The portion of the octopus was surprising, they brought two small tentacles for 18 Е, in other restaurants for such a price they bring almost a whole one, well half for sure. There are no complaints about the taste, tasty tentacles. Dorado is deliciously prepared. The wine is delicious. Homely atmosphere and fast service.“

“I returned to Mira after some time away and I wasn't disappointed in the slightest, it's true that the prices are a little higher but it's well worth it. The food is wonderful, especially the prawn bread and I can't help but comment on the staff, who have new faces but kindness is always dedication. Congratulations, I highly recommend it.“

There are meals for all tastes, for me it's the seafood and fresh fish that attracts me most to this place.
The staff are very attentive and friendly
The organization is well known, it has a competent manager at the top (which is where I always stay)
I recommend Cascais Fish Bay ??“

“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

“We had the best time here! We were only in Cascais for one night and the owner, Sonya, came out and talked with us the whole dinner. She said that she would bring out the best they had and took our menus. Everything we had was delicious, including the bottle of wine. We had a great time with great food and an experience that I will never forget from all my time in Portugal!!“

“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.“

“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.“

“Our expectations were exceeded by this awesome restaurant. It was the best meal we had in two weeks of Spain and Portugal. We dared to go back two days later to see if we tried other items would it continue to impress and again it did. Beautiful presentation, creative flavors and service was excellent. Don't miss out on this wonderful experience. Steak was most tender and flavorful and fish was delicious.“

“I was at this Marisqueira in September last year 2023 and I loved the quality of the services and service, I live in the Netherlands and I'm going to Estoril again and I'm going to make a reservation to eat the seafood rice, it's delicious, the best I've ever had. I can't understand people criticizing this seafood restaurant, dear, the name alone says its specialty is fish and seafood, come and order meat! They may have meat, but it is not their specialty.“

“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.“

“A restaurant, in a fantastic location, the food is actually very good!
The service was friendly, especially because it was already after 3pm and we were very well attended to.
It's a place where I will definitely return!“

The service is very good and the dishes are well served and appetizing. In my opinion, the price was fair and we left satisfied. I recommend the experience!“

“Charming and welcoming restaurant to enjoy a delicious meal and relax with friends or family. The service is very friendly and efficient, as is the location overlooking the sea. It is the perfect combination for a meal with a relaxed atmosphere and friendly atmosphere and makes the Escotilha restaurant an excellent choice for eating in Cascais.“

“The service was very polite from the beginning, we came 30 min before the kitchen opened but we got the drinks and got to know the menu in peace. We started with prawns al aljillo and it had paprika, which I'm allergic to, but I didn't realize to ask beforehand, the waiter was still super nice and brought us another dish even though we didn't ask for it. For main course I ate Tiger prawns which was just as good as I thought. I liked it a lot.“

“While visiting Cascais, I came to have lunch at the Vela Azul Restaurant, a small, family-run space where traditional Portuguese food, especially fish, is the house specialty. The starter came with Bread, Toast, Butter and a Fresh Cheese. The main course consisted of tasty Grouper Fillets accompanied by naughty Tomato Rice and perfectly well prepared, full of aroma and flavor. I also ordered a Mixed Salad which was generous and well seasoned. I accompanied the meal with House White Wine and finished with a homemade Queijada. Meal around €26 per person. I recommend!“

“Had the grilled octopus, which is always delicious.
Been coming to this place almost everytime I come to Cascais to the beach and it never disappoints, the food is always fresh and delicious no matter what I try, bitoque, shrimps, octopus. It’s my favorite in the beach area.“

“Arriba is an absolutely breathtaking wedding venue! As a photographer, I’ve had the pleasure of capturing weddings here, and it’s always a fantastic experience. The stunning ocean views and elegant setting create the perfect backdrop for unforgettable photos. The team at Arriba by the Sea is incredibly professional and accommodating, making sure everything runs smoothly. The service is impeccable, and the food is delicious. If you’re looking for a gorgeous coastal venue with top-notch service, I highly recommend Arriba!“

“It was a positive surprise for the place you are in, together with others, friendly, affable, courteous, fast staff.
We were lucky with parking, I'll be back, the squid was great, very fresh, and the picanha was very good, sorry about the beans, but... forgive me.

Parking: It has 4 seats“

“We came for dinner twice in this restaurant as we were very well served and their grilled fishes were great.
The restaurant is a bit away from all those tourist trap restaurants which is great! It is located nearby Praia da Ribeira, after the Police station.
Very peaceful area, we highly recommand a visit!
Thank you to the staff and cooks!“

“An 80s style restaurant, bitoque was delicious, its own sauce. Rice like I've never seen before, fluffy, delicious. The fries were a little overcooked. But it was still delicious too.
The service was excellent with everyone.
I liked it, you can believe I will come back.“

“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.“

“Highly recommended. It's not right at the marina, you might walk past it, but if you go in it's a surprise. We ate wonderful scallops with almond and truffle, the picanha spectacular. To come back

Kid-friendliness: Children's menu“

“Awesome pizza in center of town. Great selection of international dishes including favourite Portuguese cuisine options. Recommended for a nice lunch on the patio in busy center square Largo Luis de Camoes.

Kid-friendliness: Kids were well served with various options from burgers to pizza.“

“Fantastic seafood restaurant located on the 2nd floor of the marina. Great concept of picking your seafood from the ice display and cooked to perfection. Certainly the views are just amazing and worth a visit just for that!
On the pricier side of restaurants in the area as well.“

“This place was a really great spot to end a beach day! The patio dining overlooked the town and the water, as well as the Eurocup viewing site. We got there at 7:00 and they told us we couldn’t eat until 7:30 but we could sit and have drinks. We sat and they let us look at the menu and we ordered right at 7:30. The food came quickly. We got bread to share which came with flavored butter, oil with balsamic, and olives. I ordered the shrimp risotto which was delicious and passed around the table. They had a nice restroom we were able to use as well. I highly recommend this restaurant!!“

“We stumbled upon this place after looking for a sea-view bar for a chilled wine and snacks. We were not disappointed!!! This place delivered everything we needed at very reasonable prices (especially compared to the UK), delicious drinks. Great snacks. Lovely friendly staff providing great service and a beautiful view!! 10/10, like Arnie said, I'll be back!“

“Goed eten, we kregen de John Bull steak en de garoupa aangeraden door de gastheer. Wij hebben hiervoor gekozen omdat dit “de beste steak/vis van de stad is”. En hij had groot gelijk. De vlees met sausje was fantastisch! En vis ook erg naar wens!

De gastheer van vriendelijk en leuk in gesprek met ons en de rest van de klanten. De obers waren ook fantastisch!

Wij komen hier zeker terug! Dit is geen toeristenval! In tegenstelling tot de buren hadden zij wel nog de Portugese taal op de kaart met Portugese gerechten!“

“Amazing location, service and food…everything was amazing. We loved our waiter although we didn’t get his name. He made the peri peri spicy sauce and he was so lovely. The food was to die for and it was the perfect location for people watching.

Kid-friendliness: They welcome families and children. I still can’t get over the food, service and location!“

“For my part, a good time, even if it remains above all a tourist place. With what that includes. Fast service and only for passing customers so you don't have to expect anything else. I had a fried vegetable sea bass and it was pretty successful.“

“Ended up here by chance. Wanted to eat something easy and watch the European Championship semi-final. It may look like a standard tourist tent, but we had a surprisingly good meal here! Octopus salad, hamburger, pasta with parmesan prepared at the table and more. The staff is also friendly, especially a younger lady who speaks fluent English. Highly recommended in our opinion!“
