“We were a group of 12 people and we were immediately received with promptness and friendliness despite the late hour. Good food and excellent service. Lots of friendliness from the staff. I already know where to go back when I go to Mondim de “
“We’re in Quinta Do Lago for a fortnight after a busy Christmas at home , on a walk around the lake on Thursday morning we spotted this restaurant and decided to try for a reservation that evening. We weren’t disappointed. The staff were all excellent , I started with fish pie and my wife had the traditional Portuguese prawns followed by sea bass and monk fish all cooked to perfection. We also enjoyed a lovely Alvarinho wine. We will return“

“Now this is food!
Wonder!
I've already eaten Alentejo-style meat and maronesa steak.
It's often said to eat and cry for more... but in this case it's time to repeat it!
Portuguese food with a big P!
Congratulations to everyone, especially the cook!
Dessert: Mango mousse (also good!)
In addition to the surreal-tasting food, the people are also extremely friendly!
It's worth having lunch or dinner here (I recommend both).
Congratulations to everyone on the phenomenal service and food!“

“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.“

“The attention and speed in serving the dishes is unbeatable. The combined dishes are abundant, the homemade pizzas are very varied and delicious. I recommend as a starter the Celorico soup (potatoes with bacon and cheddar cheese with francesinha sauce). It's worth the wait to get a table.“

“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.“

“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 ordered the famous "Posta de Vitela" and it was very good. Very tasty and good quantity. The owners are very friendly. Of course, you have to bring cash because they do not accept credit cards. For my taste, the price of food and drinks is a little high considering the location.“

“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.“
“Bij het binnentreden van dit restaurant vonden we de licht intensiteit heel sterk. Er was al wat volk aanwezig, en na ons kwamen er nog veel meer.Goede ontvangst, de gastheer deed prima zijn best om ons in het Engels te woord te staan. Wijn proeven geen probleem. De prijzen van de wijn zijn per fles (en niet per glas).Het eten was lekker.Dank u voor deze mooie en smaakvolle avond.Oh ja, de fles wijn was niet leeg, dus hebben we deze mee gekregen“

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“

“(Translated by Google) For a lunch of food from the region it is very satisfactory, I do not give it 5* because the last time they took a long time to serve us and they served people who arrived later first (perhaps because of the position they hold in the Celorico area) and only later on request answered.(Original)Para um almoço de comida da região é muito satisfatório, não dou 5* porque da ultima vez levaram muito tempo a atender-nos e atenderam primeiro pessoas que chegaram depois (talvez pelo cargo que possuem na área de Celorico) e so depois a pedido nos atenderam.“

“I have been going to Tasquinha da Alice, located in the Serra do Alvão, for over 15 years, and I can say that it is a true treasure for lovers of regional cuisine. This restaurant stands out not only for its isolated and picturesque location, but also for the rustic and welcoming atmosphere that makes us feel at home.
Tasquinha da Alice remains true to its roots, providing an authentic experience with each visit. The stone walls and traditional decoration create a unique atmosphere, perfect for enjoying the delicious snacks that are the house's trademark. Alheira, prepared according to the traditional recipe, is simply divine, with a texture and flavor that captivates the palate.
Another unmissable dish is the salpicão omelette, rich and tasty, which perfectly complements the cozy atmosphere of the restaurant. And, of course, the meat in the pan, slowly cooked to perfection, is a true delight, succulent and accompanied by a robust sauce that takes us back to memories of home-cooked meals.
Throughout all these years, Tasquinha da Alice has maintained the quality and authenticity that made it so special. It is a haven of tranquility and good food, a place that I continue to visit with enthusiasm, always assured of a memorable meal. And this summer, without a doubt, I will return there for another unforgettable gastronomic experience.“

“Bar dos Pauzinhos is easy to miss as it is up on a balcony above the street. We were only here for beers but I have to say that the francesinha we saw being served looked fantastic, with the internal steak perfectly cooked medium rare. Anyway, as we were just having beer I should advise that it was very good, as was the service. The location above the street also meant that drinking on the patio was a perfect place to watch the world go by.“

“Dinner with friends and children. Three of our daughters have celiac disease. They gave us excellent attention and the food was delicious. I recommend the drum rice and prawns.
The location in the old area and next to the river, organized an unrepeatable experience for us.
Must visit in Amarante.“

“The first objective of this visit was to appreciate the tripe that this restaurant is famous for.The dose was generous of ingredients and they were well made.I recognize the status of this dish served in this restaurant as a specialty, however for reasons related to the introduction of spice in its preparation (we spent the afternoon drinking!), I do not give it the highest score.Anyway, I recommend it to connoisseurs.The service was prompt and attentive, and the price very acceptable.“

“Exceptional food, including the hunting rabbit, which is a true specialty, as well as the divine Amaranthines and camel drool. Kind and dedicated team. Busy atmosphere at the weekend, which is to be expected and as reservations are not taken, I recommend arriving early to avoid longer waits. Restaurante a Quelha is a place where we came without rushing to enjoy the best of the country and which I recommend as a mandatory stop in Amarante.“

“Very welcoming restaurant.
Very friendly service (even though it was crowded).
We started with alheira and black pudding and they were divine.
For the main course, we chose charcoal-roasted cod, accompanied by mashed potatoes and greens... all very well prepared.
Only two suggestions for improvement: the quality of the coffee and decaffeinated coffee (very poor) and the lack of an option to pay by MB.
I recommend!“
