“We went in a group of practically 50 people to try this house. In a normal restaurant you would expect the quality to be compromised by the number of people in our group. But this is not a normal restaurant. It is simply one of the best restaurants in Portugal! The best veal, potatoes, goat, cabidela... everything that was placed on the table was superb. Including desserts. Congratulations on your home, we will certainly be back“

“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.“

“A timeless and familiar space.
Whenever I spend a few days in Arouca it is mandatory to come here for lunch or dinner.
I've always gone there with my family, and we always go for the trout, which are farmed in-house and are a specialty.
This time, I tried the lamb in the oven and was once again amazed by its quality. A very tender meat, very well seasoned, so refined and with such a good and familiar flavor that it is difficult to put it into words.
You won’t leave here hungry or thirsty! the doses are very well served.
There is no menu and it is mandatory to book well in advance. This system is important so that there is no waste and guarantees the freshest food possible, as it is necessary to choose what we want to eat at the time of booking. Furthermore, it makes the meal very relaxed, as the delicacies flow to the table very fluidly.
Desserts are also a specialty. A creamy milk with a unique flavor and my favorite dessert is from this restaurant and is called dry soup. A flavor, a texture so simple and so good and I won't reveal more!
Mr. António in the living room and his wife in the kitchen, take this restaurant to a higher level every day through their friendliness, the art of hospitality and good cuisine.
I will come back again and again.“

“Excellent restaurant in Arouca. The veal is very tasty and well served. The service, despite not being very friendly, is attentive and professional! The atmosphere is relatively select, with ambient music and sober decor but with regional details. Very pleasant.“

“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.“

“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“

“We were very well attended to, the lady who served us was super friendly. We arrived early, we were served a sausage, some butter, olives and a basket of bread, all perfect.To eat, some prawns, which were addictive, very good. Homemade fries with the prawns and their sauce on top, an excellent combination. I just didn't like the seasoning of the salad.“

“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“

“Amazing fresh fish. Tasted like it had jumped from the sea to the grill. Friendly hosts too. Very kid to give us a couple of complimentary glasses of port each too! Great wine also. Fish was just incredible though. Flawlessly prepared and cooked“
“Looks like a popular restaurant in town. Good meal I had here. I had carrot soup and wild boar stew .. it was very nice and served really well. Not expensive. The stew was provided with rice and fries .. (? fries everywhere). A restaurant that calls himself "typical food" shouldn't serve food with fries .. that's my take. Stew with fries ?♂️. For dessert i had the classic "arroz doce" - also super generous (sweet rice). Anyways was good and recommend. Special shout out to the staf: very friendly and familiar atmosphere. Recommended.“

Fabulous meal, attentive service, great advice and the icing on the cake (or apple crumble in truth) was a birthday candle on her dessert!!The meats are high quality, I think veal must be their speciality as a lot of people around us had it!Definitely recommended!“

“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.“
“A very small place but they serve good food and good drink. An authentic tasco, but in the end we left satisfied and the value is reasonable compared to other restaurants. The food is freshly prepared and has a typical homemade taste and is very tasty. Whenever I go to Castelo de Paiva, I no longer look for another place to eat, I go straight to the Sporting winery. I recommend without a doubt.“

The environment itself is like many other restaurants where unfortunately you cannot have a conversation with another person who is with us without raising your voice to hear us.
