Vegetarian options: Vegetarian sausage

Kid-friendliness: They had a baby chair“

“What a wonderful meal! Unexpectedly we debuted Oma's new menu. Everything was excellent, but when we talked about the meal again the opinion was unanimous, and the highlights were: the brioche (from the house's homemade breads), the cauliflower purée from the starter, the crispy potato (from the Presa à Bulhão Pato) and the texture of the Veal. In dessert, the highlighted element was fig leaf oil. The chef's mastery was noted, accompanied by the extreme friendliness of the service. Ending as we began: a wonderful meal!“

“Pleasant surprise!
Very pleasant restaurant involved in “Tongobriga”, Chef Paulo Damatta is very attentive and the dishes are very well prepared with his personal touch, congratulations.
We had a veal skewer for lunch with cracked eggs, and a mushroom toasted starter! 5*
I'll definitely go back there... I recommend it.“

“Very high level.
Simply divine food, from starters to desserts, prices within normal limits, but considering the quality, I would say they are even affordable. And the service is very friendly.
I recommend it without any doubt!“

“Dîner vraiment très bien. La prestation est loins des standards portugais. Nous sommes là sur de la qualité autant sur le service que sur la nourriture et cerise sur le gâteau maintenant que la rue est devenue piétonne le cadre est encore mieux. Honnêtement si vous aimez la gastronomie et que vous passez sur Amarante il faut y faire un arrêt.“

“It was our second time at this restaurant. The location is excellent, next to (and overlooking) a small waterfall on the Teixeira River.
Now there is new management.
We ate breast accompanied by salad, rice, potatoes and black beans. Everything was good, but the rice was great.
We also ate Peasant Steak with mushroom sauce, accompanied by rice and potatoes. Using my husband's words: "It was divine."
The atmosphere remains very pleasant and the service is very good.“

“Restaurante super acolhedor, empregado de mesa muito simpático. E a menina também! COMIDA MARAVILHOSA! Comer e chorar por mais! Vim numa escapadinha com o minha namorada, mas já queremos trazer a família inteira para vir aqui experimentar! Comemos T-bone, acompanhado com arroz branco e batata frita ? Ah! De entrada alheira frita, também maravilhosa!“

“The best restaurant we went to this week we spent in Douro (we came more than once). Super welcoming place with homemade and honest food. Mr. Joaquim made us want to come back with his kindness and care in the treatment. We also had the opportunity to meet Dona Custódia, the chef in the kitchen who, in addition to being a great cook, always brings a smile on her face.
We will definitely come back and refer the site to all our friends.“

“I had the pleasure of dining at Quinta da Lama, a former olive oil mill that has been transformed into a delightful restaurant. The place exudes a cozy and rustic charm, with clay pots and vintage stone adorning the dining room.The menu offers a wide range of dishes, from traditional Portuguese cuisine to Mediterranean and European influences. I opted for the “posta à lagar”, a succulent tenderloin steak cooked in olive oil and garlic, and the cod with cornbread, a classic Portuguese dish that was moist and flavorful. Both dishes were exquisite and prepared with fresh and quality ingredients. The salads and bread were also very good.For dessert, I indulged in the “leite creme”, a creamy custard with a caramelized crust. It was heavenly, one of the best I ever had. I also enjoyed the house wine, a local red wine that complemented the food perfectly.The service was impeccable and attentive, and the prices were reasonable for the quality and quantity of the food. I had a splendid time at Quinta da Lama and I highly recommend it to anyone looking for an authentic and satisfying dining experience in Amarante.“

“One of the best restaurants I've been to in recent years! ?? This charming spot offers a delightful mix of Italian and Portuguese local cuisine. They have a wood oven for baking perfect pizzas and calzones. Though I haven't tried the pasta, it looks amazing! The Portuguese dishes I tried were fantastic, and the desserts are simply divine. The staff was incredibly friendly and attentive, making the dining experience even more enjoyable. Highly recommend! ???? #Foodie #ItalianFood #PortugueseCuisine #BestRestaurant #PizzaLover #FoodieFind

“2024... Better than it was in previous years! Different for the better! It wasn't bad, it was good, however with the new management everything got better!
Prices are also normal, even a little lower than what I have experienced in the rest of the country!
8 dishes from the menu, starters, drinks, desserts, ice creams and coffees for €146 is a very reasonable price and very good service. To be repeated as often as possible!“

“Restaurant for a quick and economical meal.
The space is very pleasant, the friendliness of the team too.
They didn't give a menu, they just said the dish of the day and it was good.
For €8.5, we got bread, which was great; drink, I opted for the red verde wine, very good; soup, it was good; dish, which was also good and well served; and dessert that didn't compromise.
In the end the quality, quantity / price ratio is very good.“

“I would say that it is almost the best sushi I have ever tried in my life. Since we were in Portugal we wanted to have something more traditional but we ended up here and we couldn't be happier. The sushi was delicious and they did very good service, the buffet price is GREAT!

Vegetarian options: If you tell them that you are vegetarian, they will make you a more personalized sushi for you, this is what they did for my friend who was delighted.“

“Small, family-run restaurant frequented mainly by locals, menu with various tapas and local dishes.
We tasted several things and accompanied everything with some house wine. It was all very good.
Fast but attentive service. Incredibly low prices even considering the quality of what we ate.
Absolutely recommended“

“Today I discovered this space by chance and it was a pleasant surprise.
Cozy space, excellent service, very well prepared food and Mr. Fernando's innate knowledge of welcoming.
All very good.
Place to revisit.

Parking: I recommend parking next to the picnic area, as the restaurants are not far away.“

“One of the best restaurants in the area. The service is absolutely excellent. All the staff are very attentive and friendly. The food is cooked to perfection and the portions are absolutely huge. Price wise I think it’s very cheap for what you get. I’d recommend any meat dish but the “polvo a lagareiro” is exquisite. Give this place a try, you will not regret it!“

“Starting with the enormous friendliness of the service. Homemade hamburger, very well prepared. The lady said that the specialty is francesinha. If it's even better than the hamburger, it's more than enough reason to go back there. recommended“

“Great place to eat for €7.5 per night with bread, soup, coffee and drink. Without a doubt it is a find these days. The employees are very welcoming and the service is very fast. The food is simple and traditional, great for trying typical Portuguese foods. I will come back here for sure“

“I know this restaurant well, I've had lunch there more than a dozen times, I was there in August for lunch with my sister, it was full, I ended up staying on the terrace and I loved it, good food, moderate prices and good service, I recommend it.“

“In the city center we discovered this excellent restaurant that welcomed us very warmly. We chose a table on the balcony which gave our dinner a fresh feel.
The food was excellent, with simple things but very well combined, for example, mushrooms with cheese and a touch of mint....... Desserts follow the same policy.
Place to consider whenever you return to Amarante“

“We went to dinner at this restaurant on the recommendation of the couple from the farm where we stayed and it was a pleasant surprise! Wonderful food, all the staff is very friendly, the next day we went there again for dinner, without a doubt a place to visit again when we return to Cinfaes!“

“The best cod we ate, everything was delicious even the vegetables were amazing tasting.
We loved everything we ordered, from start to finish.
And for the quality, I can't complain about the price.
We will certainly repeat it.
We finally found a restaurant with quality and a unique flavor.“

“One of the best restaurants I have ever eaten at. The food is abundant, tasty and at affordable prices.
The service was very attentive at all times, always checking if we were okay or needed something else.
The atmosphere of the place is beautiful!
RECOMMENDABLE!“

“Today for lunch was my first time at Cancela Velha. It was busy but no waiting, seated immediately. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Was with my brother and our Portuguese language teacher. We all ordered the soup (nabissa), breads and olives and cheese appetizers, bacalhau cakes, daily special (pescado and arroz com gelho). Appetizers, soup, and daily fish and rice specials were delicious. I particularly enjoyed the rice. We ordered some traditional deserts, natas de ceu, pudin, bolo traditional. Deserts were delicious especially the natas de ceu. We ordered an apple turnover to take home for our mom. Our server said “warm it slightly and serve with ice cream”, which of course we did. Our mom is 92 and she has tried a lot of apple turnovers in her 9+ decades, and she said “this is the best I have tasted, get more next time please.” Overall an excellent experience and since we are now locals, we will be back again!“

“Pastries are awesome and made in house. It was hopping busy but we got served asap, with coffees and pastry delivered to our seats on the covered patio overlooking the river. A literal bird ate crumbs from my wife's hand. I half expected someone to burst into song from an overhead window.“

“Absolutely perfect restaurant in which we spent a great evening with the family. We happily tasted the Portuguese specialties and everything was delicious and plentiful.Special mention to Carlos who is an extraordinary and passionate man. His kindness and professionalism transported us. We are delighted with this discovery and hope to return during the next vacation.“

“We want to express our sincerest gratitude to the Douro a Vista restaurant for providing a truly memorable experience. From the warm welcome to the delicious food, every moment was simply unforgettable. The team demonstrated exemplary professionalism and exceptional care in every detail, ensuring that we felt truly pampered throughout our meal. The environment, combined with the spectacular view, created a magical atmosphere that made our visit even more special. We are immensely grateful for the wonderful experience and look forward to returning soon!
A big thank you from all the guests who were present at my in-laws' 50th birthday, whether they were Portuguese, French or Swiss, everyone was delighted.“

“(Translated by Google) Beautiful space and very quiet environment. Friendly service, but inefficient in the proposal of options to eat. No tapas or list service were suggested, just simple dishes of the day. At another table, another collaborator presented a larger "range" of alternatives - we had already placed the order - It was the main reason for the classification. After the start of lunch, it was suggested to bring more fillets and/or accompaniments if desired. The hake fillet and potatoes were delicious. Biscuit cake is also very good. I would like to point out that we were at the restaurant next door waiting for the table to be cleaned, when I noticed that there was a tapas house - with good recommendation "maps"... Easy parking in front or on the street. Cheap price with coffee included in the dish of the day.(Original)Espaço bonito e com ambiente muito sossegado. Atendimento simpático, mas pouco eficiente na proposta de opções para comer. Não foram sugeridas tapas nem serviço de lista e sim apenas pratos simples do dia. Em outra mesa, outra colaboradora apresentou um maior "leque" de alternativas - já tínhamos feito o pedido - Foi a principal razão da classificação. Após o início do almoço foi sugerido trazer mais filetes e/ou acompanhamento se assim o desejasse. O fillete de pescada e as batatas estavam saborosas. Bolo de bolacha também muito bom. Gostaria de salientar que estávamos na porta do restaurante do lado a espera da limpeza da mesa, quando reparei que havia uma casa de tapas - com boa recomendação "maps"... Estacionamento fácil em frente ou na rua. Preço barato com café incluído no prato do dia.“

“Just FABULOUS!After numerous trips to Portugal and countless restaurants,What a surprise ! The cuisine is really tasty and surprising. The Beiral cod was very good. And what about beef steak? A beautiful piece of meat cooked to perfection, covered with bread, olives, garlic and parsley. From the first bite to the last, a real festival for your taste buds!You will be looked after by your hosts! The boss is very friendly and speaks a little French.Their own vinho verde is a Brussels medalist and will perfectly accompany your evening.The setting is impeccableEverything is there to have a good time!We recommend and we will come back“

“Very cozy tavern, calm and relaxed atmosphere, excellent food with good presentation, but not in (too much) quantity... the interior is very well distributed and the decor is of excellent taste, also good hygiene in all spaces. They have an open terrace, with a good arrangement of tables, and a large, more relaxed atmosphere with music. The prices are not very affordable, but they make up for everything else, as they are moments well spent, of emotional socialization.“

“(Translated by Google) Very friendly and available staff.Very good food at affordable prices, both snacks and the dish of the day.Recommend ????(Original)Staff muito simpático e disponível.Comida muito boa a preços acessíveis, tanto petiscos como prato do dia.Recomendo ????“

“After doing the PR4 in Serra da Aboboreira, the goal was to miss the famous year in the oven. There wasn't, but we were compensated by a good meal and excellent greenery in the region. As it's the Christmas season, we ended with an excellent French toast. Thank you for the welcome and excellent service. It is recommended.“

“(Translated by Google) Perfect delicacies, it's just a pity not to have kept the point of sale in Porto because having to go to Marco is still a considerable journey, but eating less is keeping the delicacies in the mind and thus not easily forgotten. Mandatory visit.(Original)Iguarias perfeitas, é só pena não ter mantido o ponto de venda no Porto porque ter que ir ao Marco ainda é uma deslocação considerável, mas comer-se menos é mantém-se as iguarias na mente e assim não se esquece com facilidade. Obrigatório a visita.“

“This restaurant tries to simulate life in an old house in Portugal, in any village. The detail of eating by the light of oil lamps, the uniforms of the employees, the food cooked in a huge fireplace and the raw state of the construction achieve the objective. Well prepared food and attentive service. Cream milk is simply delicious! Well worth the trip. I recommend“

“Small but cozy place. We were on the terrace at noon. Even though it was hot, it was very good (the middle of August). They brought us water for our dogs and were very kind. The food was very delicious and the price was very good.
Pet friendly place on the terrace!

Parking: Blue zone, ticket required.“

“One of the best places to eat in Amarante, the food is a delight at all levels, the service is spectacular and unbeatable, the place is beautiful with beautiful views from the terrace, I recommend it 100% and if I return to Amarante I will return to this one restaurant“

“Excellent food, very well prepared, in a wood-fired oven. I highly recommend the goat or lamb. But the goat is really the best there is in Portugal, it's not a "kid", 6 or 7 years old!!!! I just don't give 5 stars on everything because it depends on who is being served! There are two employees there who litter the parking lot! And the price, in my opinion, is a little exaggerated! Not in the dose of goat or lamb but in drinks, desserts, starters....etc! Apart from that, if you want to eat the best goat we have in Portugal, it's a TOP place. The other drawback is the size of the parking lot, very small!“

“We went in because we were thirsty, we had some beers with their fine sweets and then we took their 5 specialties. They are almost the same dough of eggs wrapped in different textures, a delight, it's back to the 70's, and I have remembered those fine pastries that were made when I was little, the place was very nice and the staff very correct, we loved it“

“We arrived without knowing what we were seeing and we loved it.To begin with, the clams, which were well served and meaty. Delicious. Next, an equally tasty and well-prepared Rodovalho. The house's white verde wine accompanied the meal very well and finally for dessert we ordered the chocolate mousse and the house sweet. Everything impeccable.“

“(Translated by Google) Cozido à Portuguesa , Anho roast and much more , with excellent quality .Inviting price.I recommend !(Original)Cozido à Portuguesa , Anho assado e muito mais , com excelente qualidade .Preço convidativo.Recomendo !“

“(Translated by Google) Excellent, for those who need to go to the Marco Canavezes area, there is no better place to have your meal.From the service to the friendliness of the owner, not forgetting the quality of the meat and the inviting price.Coming back soon.(Original)Excelente, para quem necessita de ir para a zona do Marco Canavezes, não há melhor para fazer a sua refeição.Desde o atendimento á simpatia da proprietária, não esquecendo a qualidade da carne e o preço convidativo.A voltar em breve.“

“(Translated by Google) A pleasant surprise this place, the environment is simple, the quality and flavor are great and the price is very good. We ordered two Galão and 3 snacks and it cost €5.(Original)Uma grata surpresa esse local, o ambiente é simples, a qualidade e sabor são ótimos e o preço é muito bom. Pedimos dois Galão e 3 salgados e saiu por 5€.“

“We arrived around 3pm and were greeted with great friendliness! We were hoping for the goat but, of course, at this time it's impossible so we opted for the suggestion of the friendly girl who helped us. Grilled chunks of veal with vegetables, rice and French fries. The vegetables were wonderful! The meat was the best I've had in a long time!!! The delicious rice and potatoes, which I prefer, were very tasty. We accompanied it with house red mature wine, very good!! The cream milk (which I don't even like) was delicious!!!The price was very affordable for such quality! I will definitely be back.Thank you very much“

“A true typical Portuguese restaurant. Excellent quality homemade food. Average price €20 per person. Very cozy atmosphere, especially in winter with the fireplace warming the place.Just a negative note, they only accept cash payments, it's better to be prepared!Without a doubt, I recommend it.“

“The food is good. We ordered the fillets and the veal skewer, which to my surprise came with cabbage instead of greens like in the photos.
The atmosphere is not welcoming at all, with loud television and morning programs from conventional channels.“

“Super fast service!
Nice outdoor terrace.

Service? Wonderful! Super friendly.
Large doses at economical prices (half a dose was enough for two people).

We liked it so much that we came back two days in a row! And try Resende's typical sweet: cavacas
A fluffy cake with sugar icing“

“Cozy restaurant from the 14th century. The food was really good, with local dishes but also e.g. salmon from Norway. We were three adults and ate both fish and beef. Everything was of good quality. We drank the local Douro wine, both red and white, which also tasted good. Service was also good, although it was a little difficult to communicate. The menu card is modern and easy to find around. If you want delicious food in cozy surroundings, we recommend Almeida 1375!“
