“Ate there twice, one lunch and one dinner. The service is nice and professional.The food is great, very tasty like a gourmet restaurant,the vegetarian risotto was excellent. Wine list is a big deal there,it is like a book and all the wine ceremonies are a bit too pompous to my taste and at the end when you order a glass they serve about a quarter of the glass. Over all it was nice and tasty but way too expensive for what you get .“

“High class restaurant from Rui Paula. Not sure what criteria this is missing to not have a star in the red book, but special things happen here.
Somellier is knowledgeable and engaging. Wines run the full spectrum from affordable to hilarious, and everything in between. Good selection by the glass as well including some special ones by the corovin, which is a nice way to splash out a bit without remortgaging or contacting a broker.
Beautiful view right on the river. This is the absolute definition from the guide of worth a special visit.“

“Delicious food. Had veal with risotto, which tasted heavenly. The host is friendly and accommodating. The prices are good and you leave full for reasonable money. Preferably a place I will come again. The place looked a bit closed when we arrived (7.30pm), but don't be fooled. ?“

“Very good traditional restaurant. The welcome, the service, the meal, the wines, everything was perfect. I sincerely recommend this restaurant. Originally from Switzerland, we were very well advised on what food and wine to order. In addition, the prices were very reasonable.
Thank you for this good time spent in your restaurant.“

“An absolute ‘must go’ if you’re around Vila Real. The octopus was incredibly tender, the kid goat with alheira was gorgeous and the grilled mushrooms could have only been a product of witchcraft. The veal carpaccio was a star and the service impeccable.“

“I do recommend it.We were a party of 7 and 2 babbies. We ordered the mixed platter (several different cuts) and we were delighted with it.Right next to the exterior area there's a kids playground..which is quite handy to keep them busy :)If there is something to be corrected...please prohibit people from smoking on the outside area. Nothing worst than having a great mral interrupted by cigarette smoke. (Thats the explanation for the 4stars on athmosphere)“

“After reading some comments, I was a little afraid of risking a family lunch at Xanoca! Contrary to what I read, we were well received, the food was very well prepared, with more than enough and generous portions, with very acceptable prices! I can't say it's a great place, but it was pretty good!“

“Very traditional food with a quaint ambiance. The service could have been friendlier, but given the age of the waiter, let's leave that as laziness. Well-stocked meal with side dishes and succulent meat and fish. We'll come back to that. ?“

“Excellent food. Very pleasant atmosphere. But at busy times the waiting time is long and the service is poor. I noticed people who had waited so long at the table and left. Therefore it is a point to improve. Of course I won't stop coming here. It's worth trying.“

“Recommended by a resident of Vila Real, we walked through the door of this restaurant and did not regret it.
Friendly welcome upon our arrival.
We were seated nicely and despite the language difference the explanations were very clear and given with patience. Between English, French and hand language ?, they explained to us that the €9 menu included starter, main course, coffee and drink. What more could you ask for: a small dessert for €3. About ten pastries and ice creams await us. So we ate for €24 for two in a very nice atmosphere.
The starter remains the same, soup then your choice of fish or meat served today with fresh vegetables (cabbage and carrots) and baked potatoes.
A map is also offered.
We did not regret our choice.
I think it is best to book because the room fills up quickly.
Bon appetit to those who pass through the door.“

“The restaurant offers typical Portuguese dishes at a very good price/performance ratio. We had the Armamar pizza and a Francesinha toast.
The portions are large and the food is impeccable. Paying by card is no problem. (Debit/credit, e.g. Visa)
I can only recommend! Yesterday, Mother's Day, it was a little more crowded, but it was still nice!
Vegetarian options: Some pizzas are vegetarian, a margarita should also be possible.
Parking: Right in front of the restaurant on the street.
Kid-friendliness: There are high chairs. Children's portion should also be possible.“

“Restaurant located in the Six Senses Douro Valley hotel.
Prestigious place, with a sublime atmosphere where details such as ambiance, comfort, lighting, are followed to the letter.
On the 31/05th, I went to this restaurant for dinner and with the hot day, we stayed on the terrace. Adequate ambient music, an atmosphere with great class and good taste. All framed with a wonderful view over the Douro River.
The cod fillet was divine, offering perfect flakes and the ideal touch of salt. I felt a soft crunch on the skin, counterbalancing the softness of the very well seasoned lupine puree.
Unfortunately I don't give 5 stars for the service. In fact, the service definitely deserved 3 stars, especially for the sommelier.
We ordered wine to accompany the meal and were not given any introduction, explanation of grape varieties, methods, etc. as indeed, it is the work of a professional sommelier. In general, the entire attitude of indifference towards us, the lack of empathy and sympathetic dialogue has created a glaring gap. Basically, there was a lot of superiority for little professionalism.
The same lack of friendliness was felt by the only employee working that day.
I close by saying that in a hotel and restaurant of this range, these foundations of good service should be natural and mandatory.
In a restaurant experience with dishes with so much technique and quality of presentation and ingredients, being tarnished due to a lack of tact on the part of the wait staff is serious.“

“If you find it, don't hesitate to push the door, it doesn't look like it's open, but the room is at the back. And, on the kitchen side, it's simple, homemade, with local products, and brilliantly good. The advice... a pitcher of white wine, slightly sparkling, it is excellent. And then the price! 25€ for: 2 beers, 1 pitcher of white wine, 2 extra dishes, salads/tomatoes for 2 (delicious), 2 desserts, we even wondered if there was a mistake!.Remember, try in any case we recommend.“

“Family restaurant, where dishes are made with the main ingredient, love!
The food was very well prepared and tasty.
The service initially raised an alert but then everything went exceptionally well.
The pleasant space and the bathrooms are clean and smell good, this for me is an indication that they take care of cleanliness.
I will definitely be back.“

“Good restaurant in Vila Real.I went to try the famous Bacalhau à Maranus and it was really good.Service and staff concerned with good service, despite the restaurant being full with all tables occupied.It's worth passing through Vila Real and stopping to eat at this restaurant, the meat is also promising, but wait for another opportunity.“
“A completely self-confident and excellent restaurant. He doesn't gamble, he has his permanent excellent menu and that's what he looks after.Even though I was a foreigner, I felt at home, like in my home restaurant.

“Fair prices and friendly service/atmosphere, the quantity of potatoes that accompany the francesinha is not humble, but the prices are. Including a digestive at the end on the house. For some, it is the best place to eat francesinha in Vila Real.“
“Wonderful family restaurant with a true Portuguese atmosphere, it is that typical place that we are all looking for on a trip...charming family that serves you with closeness and affection and, in addition, serves you delicious homemade food at a very good price.

“I will not hesitate to say that the roast lamb from the oven made the dinner one of the outstanding meals of our 21 day tour of Portugal.
Friendly, welcoming, good advice and great food, the team is outstanding and the menu with plenty of choices.
So we are here again for dinner and looking forward to the chef's version of Bacalhau.
Waiting in anticipation.“

“This small, simple “tasca” has outstanding food and service. The best roast kid (cabrito) I have ever eaten, after 35 years in Portugal - tender, succulent, in a perfect light sauce, with delicious roast potatoes and tasty pilau style rice. House wine is excellent for the price. Good desserts. Fast, friendly service. Amazing value for money.“

“The food is generally good!! We ordered tuna tataki and shank, it was good.The attention from the restaurant staff was very good!!As for negative points, in my opinion the wine was very expensive, 28 e for a normal white! The armchairs where they accommodated us to eat were very uncomfortable!The starters that they give you when you arrive (pâté, olives and oil) are very expensive and we also didn't order them, it is assumed that if this happens it should be complimentary!! The latter plus the wine inflated the price too much!! But the food itself was good!!“

“Great francesinha, best one I had in Portugal so far. Delicious sauce, and they come to your table for refills. The place is very busy, reserve in advance or be prepared to wait a bit before being seated. Friendly service, prices are a bit more expensive that outside vila real but still cheap.“
“We learnt from our waiter that Tasca means pretty much like “a hole in the wall “ in Portuguese and Jota means J. It was a delightful dinning experience for me and my wife. The food was fresh and tasty, and the presentation was fabulous. Worth two glasses of wine, we only paid about 50 euros. Highly recommend to anyone who visits Lagos!“
“Very good place to eat on lunch.
I see alot of people only speak about the wine tasting, yes, they also do that, but also they have restaurant and a place for events. Its a pitty, because the restaurant is really good.
They have the option for reservations by phone calls, with the option of choose dishes, or just pick at the table (fewer options).
Vegetarian options: People can ask special options.
Parking: Big park with alot of places.
Kid-friendliness: The restaurant has good space and is adequate for children.“
