“Very good service and excellent food, we were there late and got served our dinner without problems. We promised to come back before our departure home but finally could’nt make it wich was a bummer since we enjoyed a lot the first time. Maybe next time!“

“Visiting Lisbon with my family from Boston. Came across this hidden gem while searching for restaurants on google maps. From the time we walked in we were greeted by friendly staff. We chose to sit out back, mainly because we had our two young sons with us. We ordered a caprese salad, minestrone soup, garlic bread, french fries, tomato bruschetta, 2 margharita pizzas and penne carbonara. My goodness! Everything was delicious and the price point was PERFECT! It was wonderful chatting with our server! Clearly everyone at this establishment takes a great deal of pride in what they do. I honestly would drive an hour to eat here again. It’s really that good! Hoping to stop by before our trip back to Boston!“

“[email protected] My husband and I are still in awe with our experience at Rossio Gastrobar. The staff were incredibly warm and welcoming, and they took the time to thoroughly explain what to expect from our dining experience. Our server was a true professional, able to suggest a wine based on our preferences and his choice was delightful. We were overjoyed at each and every step, from the starters to the main courses and on to the desserts - everything was delicious, and the portions were perfect. To top it all off, the rooftop views overlooking the bustling city of Lisbon provided a perfect backdrop to our meal. We'll certainly be back for more!“

“I've been here a couple of times, and every time I go to Lisboa travelling via Oriente station, I try to make a beeline for it. Fabulous food, wonderful , person attention, a real family business. And if you have never tried chilled blackberry juice (sumo de amoras) with berries floating in it on a very hot summer's day...baby, you haven't lived!!“

“The food, the atmosphere and service were all outstanding. The waiters were all super nice, the mashed potatoes, cod and the national loin thing were all amazing, and you could see the chef making everything by hand, making a new batch of mashed potatoes every time someone ordered it. The prices were really good for how good the food was, and this is probably the best restaurant I have ever been to!“

“We were two people, we ordered Portuguese style bitoque and bait.
I haven't eaten such tasty bait in a long time.
The bitoque, the meat very tender, and the sauce well seasoned.
I recommend it, and I will return because of the friendliness, the good homemade food and the good atmosphere.“

“A restaurant on the new avenues of Lisbon, with a neighborhood atmosphere, without tourists, where Portuguese is spoken.
Great service, typical Portuguese food very well prepared. Partridge game dishes were a delicacy.
I recommend.“

“One of my favorite restaurants. I'm a regular customer, just like my family! The service is fast, the staff is incredibly friendly. The food is wonderful then. In addition to the flavor, the plating leaves our mouths watering even more. I highly recommend it!“

“A little pearl in the middle of the village where both the quality of the food and the service are exceptional!
Our favorite restaurant in the municipality of Vila Franca de Xira.
You will have to reserve seats well in advance as it is always busy, especially on weekends.“

“After being recommended by friends, I went to this restaurant and it was an excellent surprise. Great food, generous portions and fair price! The grilled veal chop, despite being well done as I requested, was super tender. The desserts are "homemade" and were very good too. Fast and efficient service. Super friendly staff! I recommend making a reservation!“

“Good service, the outdoor area has a nice view on the river, and the food was fresh and overall very good.
Not the same typical Portuguese food you would expect: The menu has enough variety of fish and meat dishes that you wouldn't normally find elsewhere. There are a few vegetarian options as well.“

“It deserves lots of praise and a new visit. In an easily accessible location, it offers a rich menu, a robust wine list and an impressive dessert list.
Among so many good things, I can highlight the soft dough pastries and the abbe de priscos. However, at a large group table no one complained. An excellent meal that will be remembered.“

“Affordable seafood restaurant. If you are looking for an english speaking resto this is not the place but the owner's patience and friendliness to describe his menu more than makes up for it. Fantastic octopus and seafood Arroz. However, our guests ordered 2 grilled salmon which came somewhat overcooked for our taste. Otherwise, fair price for good quality ingredients from the sea. Friendly staff. Small menu. Best seafood restaurant in lisbom so far. Nothing to do with downtown.“

“I loved it, I don't think it could have gone better.
Full house, great food full of delicious details like pine nuts in meatballs with cherry sauce; super friendly and efficient service, fair and serious prices, diverse menu with starters that serve perfectly as a meal for those who like to snack on different dishes, very good atmosphere with people of different ages, families, friends, locals and foreigners in full coexistence.
But all because the food is delicious; congratulations, I'll be back!“

“Escolhemos o La Caffé para fazer um lanche para celebrar em família a primeira Comunhão da nossa filha. Foi uma excelente escolha!! Desde da comido à simpatia da Tânia e do chefe de cozinha. Muito acolhedor, parecia que estávamos em casa. Muito obrigada por terem proporcionado este final de tarde tão maravilhoso, neste dia tão especial para nós!!“

“We were very well received and the food was delicious. The cod with mashed potatoes was excellent and the picanha was delicious. The portions were very generous and we all left satisfied. Also worth mentioning is the dessert, with the camel baba and the pudding, which were very good! ?️??“

“We haven't been in Alvor since 2019, and were looking forward to several visits to this fantastic restaurant during our recent holiday. We weren't disappointed. Marco and Ricardo warmly welcomed us and it was like we had never left. The whole grilled fish was better than we remembered and we are looking forward to next year already. This is a "must visit" restaurant when in Alvor. Be sure to book in advance though!“

“We had a lovely meal at Maresia, the ambience was very relaxing and the staff great. Due to the popularity of this restaurant 2 of the dishes we would have liked had sold out, we had a large wild sea bass to share and the waiter filleted it at the table for us, it was delicious and was served with potatoes and salad, for drinks we had a large beer and glass of red wine. There is sitting inside and outside and they have 2 bbq grills.“

“Casal Minhoto is an excellent option for a quality meal in the good Portuguese way. In addition to being one of the few restaurants in Póvoa de Santa Iria, it is a restaurant full of quality.
The last time we were there it was full and they gave us a 40 minute wait and accepted our name on the list. They handed us the menu and we were able to place our order before sitting down.
We ordered cockles, with toasted bread and garlic butter on the side, which was great, and fried turbot with greens rice.
The turbot came to the point of frying and seasoning. The rice is super naughty. The waiter served all three of us, which made a great difference to the service.
We had difficulty finishing the turbot that says in the menu it was for 2 people, but it served and there were leftovers for the three of us.
We didn't order desserts this time so I can't comment.
The friendliness of all the employees keeps us coming back.
Anyone who visits will certainly be well served.

Vegetarian options: I saw vegetarian options like fish from the garden.

Wheelchair accessibility: There is a ramp at the door that is somewhat inclined but not very long.“

“My Air b&b owner recommended this restaurant. We waited for 3 hour for them to open for dinner. It was worth it. We had the sea bass and two squids for 4 people. They were all very delicious. Not much seasonings on the fish and squids, so the taste was original. Highly recommend this restaurant.“

“Restaurant that brings the flavors of Alentejo here to the Loures area, we always have starters on the table with olive oil, bread, cheese, chorizo. Good dishes with good portions. The side dishes are varied, but of course the highlight goes to the migas, which are very tasty. Prices in line with the doses and are not exaggerated prices. Recommended. It has a parking lot. I liked one detail, the tables have a small extension so the dishes can stay there without taking up the table space.“

“We've been wanting to go to this restaurant for lunch for a long time, much talked about for its generous portions, especially the cod and ribs. We opted for the cod and it didn't disappoint, for those who eat well, the portion is enough for 3 people, for those who eat like this, it's enough for 4. Good on the palate and not at all salty, but, for the price of the portion you pay, it should come accompanied with some vegetables and for the dish to be really top-notch, they should serve mashed potatoes instead of boiled ones. If you want vegetables, everything is separate, which makes the meal even more expensive. The desserts we chose, although not transcendental, were good. As for the atmosphere, we went on a weekday and, interestingly enough, what we were expecting, it wasn't too noisy. On weekends, we don't know.

Overall, we will be back, this time to try the ribs.“

“Restaurant next to the second ring road, in a quiet residential neighborhood, also close to Colégio Alemão and Estádio de Alvalade, it is a renowned restaurant that has a good wine list and a good menu as well as good service, I recommend it to anyone who can enjoy have a good meal and have no problem paying an above average price.“

“Absolutely wonderful food, service, and atmosphere.Seafood dishes were fresh and delicious and really done simply and great. The staff were efficient, very personable and friendly and a real joy, and the location gives a quaint/cozy feeling.We will definitely visit again and highly recommend.“

“I hope next time there will be Fraquinho Assado, because the sauce is top, and when I say top, it's the best I've had.And yes, it's worth asking for extra sauce.Repeating.Imperial top too, in my case two tulips.Clean toilets.In fact, the last time I entered this house was around 2005/6.Coming back.“

“It's one of my few favorite restaurants.
The food is extremely fantastic, the service is wonderful. And the wine selection is perfect. Owner Luís has an elegant vision for his restaurant. I've been a customer for a few years and every time I go I'm always praised ?✨“

“A place to eat fish where people can select what they want before sitting down in the restaurant, as the fish is available right at the entrance.
The place is not big so it is advisable to book
The meal did not disappoint, in our case we went for squid and cuttlefish, which were excellent. Grilled roe starter, also good. Friendly and pleasant service.
They accept cards. car park nearby.“

“The waffles and the food in general are not very good, but when Miss Vicente makes it, I even lick my fingers after each bite. If you go there, it's not worth it if you're not taken care of by Miss Vicente. I give 5 stars just because of Miss Vicente.“

“Savel week in v.f
Xira. 2nd year that I visit this restaurant for Savel. 2 years with billing errors. Appropriate correction was requested. They partially corrected it only later at home I noticed that there was still an over billing issue. The price of the savel with the bread seemed to me to be somewhat exaggerated (28.50).“

“D. Mônica is unparalleledly friendly, she has covered the history of the restaurant and the area, always available to help with any queries, the decor is divine, no detail is forgotten. Super tasty homemade food, nothing to write home about, will definitely repeat.
A good thing“

“Had dinner last night with 4 people. We enjoyed several starters (oysters, green beans in tempura, cod fritters and potato chips with skin) and main courses (seared tuna with sweet potato purée, cod a bras, golden cod and octopus on a bed of sweet potatoes), all excellent . Really great beer and sangria. The desserts are also tasty (biscuit cake and brownies with caramel). Very friendly and helpful service with tourists. Very pleasant place both inside and outside.
Very recommended.“

“Our 6th time here, a favorite restaurant with excellent and consistent Portuguese/European inspired food, service and experience. Best couverts, entradas and several fish and meat entres, each fresh, beautiful prepared and delicious. Incredible homemade desserts. Manager Eddy, Chef Juan, Juan C, Bruno and Caria highly attentive in all ways making each visit remarkable......“

“Very good as always, my favorite restaurant, I'm sorry, I would like to visit it more often. Spectacle! Comply. to all staff. A big hug to Fred and Bruno. Long live the Glorious towards 37! (2017)

After a few years, we are back!!
Everything 5 ⭐ as always!
Thank you and see you next time
Hugs to Fred, Bruno and their families ?
Comply.

“Goodnight!
For the first time, I went to dinner at this space, Alqueire restaurant, on Friday, May 24, 2024.
Pleasant space, curious decoration, food, in general, good and service quite good, despite the restaurant being crowded. Positively highlight the employee, Francisco, who is very helpful, polite, attentive and very professional.
Compliments,
Paulo Nunes“

“A good place to eat, everything very fresh, the place clean, good wine list. It has a cozy terrace. I recommend it.

Kid-friendliness: They can adapt the food for our little ones.

Wheelchair accessibility: Wheelchair access“

“Good restaurant in the heart of the West region, due to its undulating landscape and characteristic vineyards and mills. The kitchen produces good grilled meats (their specialty), but also good fish. It's always a sober and safe meal, at good prices.“

“I don't understand any of the negative reviews. Service was some of the best I've had. The view is incredible. We were very happy with our meals- excellent food. Live music was very pleasant. We also had breakfast here which was amazing in terms of quality and selection.“

“Posso dizer bem do restaurante pois, quando fomos, era a meio da semana, o serviço e o atendimento foram excepcionais, 3 pessoas, de bicicleta, ficamos perto da entrada, o espaço está bem conseguido, tem muitas salas e muitos lugares. O preço é muito bom para a qualidade dos pratos, pedimos uma espetada de vitela, um bife na pedra e bacalhau grelhado, todos muito bem confeccionados. Muito obrigado

Parking: Estava de bicicleta, encostei na entrada

Wheelchair accessibility: Sim“

“Lively place with good service and good options for a snack or a meal. The croquette starter, which seems to have a certain reputation here, reminded me of those snacks from children's parties ?. The fish served are fresh and very well prepared. The fries could have been hotter and crispier. The house white wine was served chilled and did not disappoint.

The bill was a little steep, but the experience was pleasant. It's a shame they don't have homemade dessert options, like rice pudding (that was out of stock on the day). The draft beer served here is Sagres, which in my opinion loses to Super Bock.“

“Advice: my French and foreign friends go there.
I have never drunk such good sangria or tasted such good Portuguese dishes. The meals are plentiful and the family generous. My companion and I were very surprised by the not-so-high bill, with two digestives added to what we had ordered. It's a very good family restaurant, don't look around and you won't find anything better than here.“

“Although small, it is a surprising and very pleasant space! Given the concept, it's a good idea to book a table and choose dishes from the menu of the day in advance! But the experience is worth it...

Vegetarian options: Always delicious and ... unexpected combinations !!!“

“We went several times. We were already customers in a space also in "Carnide Velho" where the family to which it belongs was. When we arrived, they were just starting to close. We were invited in, greeted with all the friendliness and professionalism.“

“The shrimp tempura was super crunchy, and the house's new addition was goat cheese with honey and walnuts, an unusual and smooth mix. The orchard bandit sangria was also a pleasant surprise, super fresh and sweet, I loved it.
But what really melted me was the main dish: skirt steak with cheese sauce. The meat was very tender and tasty, the kind that makes you want to make it again.
And to finish, my favorite petit gateau, which was also wonderful.
Special attention to the staff who were beyond welcoming and kind, it really is a restaurant to return to frequently.“

“I highly recommend it. The food is good, the space is quiet and we were very well served by Luís.
I will definitely come back to eat the same, I didn't think I would like a meat dish made in a seafood restaurant so much ??“

“I had already seen some advertising for this restaurant and the fact that it had carbonara made with pecorino and guanciale increased my curiosity. So there I decided to try it. Experience from heaven, I ordered a few starters, one of which was eggplant in tomato sauce (Parmigiana di melanzane) and also a Bruschette Tricolore. Both good but the parmigiana di melanzane was magnificent. As for the dishes, there is no doubt, I have made carbonara at home several times, I confess that this one is much better, with fresh pasta, thicker but soft and al dente spaghetti, with the perfect guaciale and the sauce made with eggs and creamy pecorino that you just want to eat and not stop. Without a doubt, anyone who likes Italian food would strongly recommend trying the carbonara at this restaurant at least once. You won't regret it. Another dish that was also divine was the Girasoli di burrata e tartufo, where ham is the king of cheese. As for desserts, although we tried the homemade tiramisu and it was actually very good, the star is the Torta Caprese. Simply divine, it is a mixture of bombastic flavor for our mouth. I also recommend eating this dessert at least once in your life. Of course, if you like it, don't stop ?. I was really satisfied with the experience and of course, I highly recommend it to anyone who likes Italian food but also anyone who wants different experiences. It should be noted that the restaurant also sells fresh pasta outside, so anyone who wants can stop by and take it. They even sell a carbonara “kit” to make at home. Genius. And if I can say, I will come back.“

“We were in Guimaraes for the day and were lucky enough to experience Penguim. Family friendly service, the best Sea Bass my wife and I have ever had means a five star recommendation. Find this gem of a restaurant and you will experience true Portuguese hospitality and service. Thank you chef and family. Sincerely, Don & Kris Browder“

“Honestly traditional Portuguese food

In Lisbon it is no longer easy to find these strongholds

Never disappoints

The dish of the day, oven-roasted spare ribs with bean rice ?

And for dessert I ended up with Sericaia with Elvas plums because there is no other way to eat a sericaia“

“I've known this restaurant for a few years! I'm sorry it's not close enough to me to go more often.
Good food, good price, good service, they always bring a little extra to please the customer!
Top fried cuttlefish!
Top sardines
The secret ones were better, but for what you see in other houses they are good.
Excellent price-quality ratio.“

“Nice and friendly waiters. The food is excellent, with great traditional Portuguese cuisine. Entry although it brings Portuguese initials to the meal it also has available Chamussas with natural ingredients. Desert also brings a sweetness to the final of the meal.“
