Portuguese Restaurants near Pataias, PT

“Very friendly restaurant with parking at the door, very clean in the room, as in the bathrooms, the menu is a little short, there are not many options, but the food was well prepared, we ate octopus from lagareiro and turkey steaks, I recommend it, it is very affordable. “

“Excellent food, excellent preparation and high quality, the dishes are extremely well served! One of the best in the Pataias area, I recommend it! However, there is a staircase that is difficult to access for those with mobility problems! To get a table you really have to wait some time and as there is no shed we have to wait on the street... sometimes in the rain and in the sun... it is usually always crowded!“

“I think the environment is great, I wouldn't change anything.Regarding food, we ate fried cuttlefish, the food was on point, the house white wine I recommend for price and quality.In terms of cost, it is great and accessible for all types of customers.“

“Congratulations to the entire team that runs this restaurant. Everything was a 10! The clams were the best I've ever eaten, the sardines were just right and the sea bream...what can I say! Awesome.

In addition, the place has a super special decoration. I would recommend it again and again. Oh, and the house shots are delicious!

IMPORTANT: they do not accept card payment“

“Small village restaurant which offers good typical Portuguese dishes.
Everything was delicious: bacalhau, risotto and beef fillet. The quantities are very generous as is often the case in Portuguese restaurants!
The service is friendly and quite fast“

“Such a wonderful experience from the service to the ambiance and the food was just perfect. We especially love the risotto and meat. Highly recommended.

Vegetarian options: There are a few vegetarian options, we had the vegetarian risotto and it was yum!

Parking: There's parking in the outside of the restaurant.

Kid-friendliness: We brought our 8 and 11 year old and they both loved the food.“

“This was a very nice find for lunch and the family that runs the place made me extremely comfortable. Just know that they need cash and typically don’t take credit card fish and pasta bake I had was amazing with a beer for lunch. I could’ve used the siesta after that.“

“(March 2022 Review) - Edited August 2024
Very well prepared and tasty dishes:
• Autumn Stew
• António Padeiro-style goat! The rice with giblets that accompanies the lamb is something special...
• Sea bass and shrimp patties with shrimp rice
• Chocolate mousse with salted caramel and nuts... well... try it ?
Very well decorated and welcoming space. No reservations, and luckily, we had the possibility/availability to have lunch here!
I recommend “

“Posso começar por dizer que gostei bastante da experiência! O espaço tem uma boa apresentação, fui bem servido e a qualidade não ficou atrás. Achei o atendimento excelente e o preço ainda melhor, para os dias de hoje achei muito em conta! Dou 5 estrelas e os meus parabéns aos donos“

“Beautiful space, super attentive staff, the only thing that left something to be desired was the food, we ordered some mushrooms à bulhão pato, they weren't bad, they just tasted a lot like lemon, for the main course I ordered squid with coriander, it left something to be desired, my fiancée ordered it some shrimps versus and they were good“

“Probably the most perfect meal I can remember - grilled mushrooms, tuna ceviche, Portuguese steak and After 8 mousse were all magnificent. And the service was so good with one small “but” and that’s because the different dishes came a little too quickly.“

“(Translated by Google) Good food, friendly service.In fact, there is not much variety in the main dishes, but what is there is more than enough, because the starters on the buffet are so many and so varied, that we finish eating the starters and are almost left without the main course.But, the food is homemade and very good.Desserts are also varied and great.It also has a car park.I recommend it without a doubt.Very good and affordable prices.(Original)Comida boa, simpatia no atendimento.Na verdade não existe muita variedade nos pratos principais, mas, aquilo que existe é mais do que suficiente, porque as entradas no buffet são tantas e tão variadas, que nós acabamos de comer as entradas e ficamos quase a dispensar o prato principal.Mas, a comida é caseira e muito boa.As sobremesas também são variadas e são óptimas .Tem ainda parque de estacionamento.Recomendo, sem dúvida alguma.Muito bom e preços acessíveis.“

“I'd go six stars if there were such an option. We have had the pleasure of dining in Joao's restaurant for several years. We used to dine with him at his former location in Sitio. It's one thing to have a spectacular dining experience, sometimes by accident, at a restaurant.- but a real artist can *repeat* the magic, over and over again, year after year. The food is as good as any you will find in Portugal, (and the competition is fierce, Portugal is a land of excellent food). Joao takes the concept of a "guest" in his restaurant to a really unique level. He can converse with almost any guest in their native language- and treats everybody like they were royalty visiting his home. If you have never dined here, correct that as soon as possible. You absolutely will not regret it.“

“I loved the service.
All the dishes we tried, from starters to desserts, were delicious.
I highly recommend trying the delicacies at this restaurant.
Very popular restaurant, I recommend booking a table before going.“

“The food is very good, as is the imperial. Service was also provided in a friendly manner. Prices are good.I went back for the second time and liked it even more. The snacks are actually very good.The dessert we had (biscuit cake) was also very good.There are tables inside and outside the restaurant.“

“I'll start by saying that I don't really like Nazaré, however, yesterday I was at this restaurant, which I've known for over 20 years, for a family lunch. And it started badly. An employee, even before we were seated, was already placing a platter with barnacles and shrimp, which isn't very normal but I appreciated the initiative. But, 30 minutes after this happened, there were almost no barnacles or shrimp left and we hadn't had a single drop of any drink, despite having been ordered at the beginning. The employee, looking like he was doing us a favor by serving us, seemed to get even more upset when I questioned him about the drink. I decided to go to the counter and I'm glad I did. A man with citizenship, it seemed to me, from the East and probably Ukrainian, based on the flag that was on one of the walls, decided to take matters into his own hands. And I'm glad he did. From then on, what appeared to be a nightmare lunch, turned into a great lunch with a pleasant atmosphere whenever that gentleman approached our table. The other employee no longer visited our table, and thank goodness. Here is my thanks to the gentleman whose name I don't know. It has been proven that competence is fundamental in everything and this gentleman is proof. When it is said that there are collaborators who make a house, this gentleman is one of them. Once again, thank you very much. I just don't give 5 stars for the service, initially, but for the next part... I give 6 stars.“

“On the advice of a gastronome, I went to visit Tasquinha do Vitinho in Valado de Frades today. I booked a table and it was reserved. Full house atmosphere, looking for a good meal. Starters: cornbread, alheira and thirst quenching imperial. I went for the famous steak with salad and fries - everything was on point, but the 0-5 sirloin steak takes 6. Excellent. I finished with coffee. Returning in the autumn to get back to steak. Good professionals, good people. * I don't usually comment on the price/meal and I won't do so.“

“The food is very good. The prices are economical, very affordable.
For starters I had stone soup, it was excellent, good meat and tasty, I recommend it!
I ate the beef steak with garlic sauce, it was tender and tasty, the fries were frozen.
My mother ate Portuguese-style pork and it was good.
For the price we paid, I can say it is a good value for money.
There is no draft beer, only bottled beer from the Super Bock and Sagres brands.

Parking: Parking on the street, parking can sometimes be difficult, there is a ground parking lot on the main avenue.“

“This restaurant was one of the best experiences of my trip in Portugal. The food was delicious and the waiters and cook were super nice!! We were in a rush because our bus car was soon leaving and they made everything so that we can get the food in time and then on top of that the dishes were just perfect!! Especially the fish, I still think about it all the time. Thanks a lot!! 10/10“

“We stopped here for a pre dinner snack of cockles and a beer. The cockles were SO delicious that when we ate our main meal elsewhere, we ate with regret. We should have stayed here and just ordered more cockles. Maybe after a snooze, we can go back before he closes for just one more plate…“

“Super friendly service. Grilled sea bream was great. We ordered sautéed vegetables to accompany, which were delicious, well seasoned and at the cooking point they should be. Dessert was the least good element, a passion fruit tart that was not at the level of the rest of the meal. I was sure that the menu had a better choice for the final finish of the meal.

Parking: Weekend in June was peaceful. I believe that in August it will be more complicated.“

“The service was really helpful, even though we didn’t speak any Portuguese they were patient and nice. The place was very clean and organised, food came out at a very reasonable time and it was delicious!We ordered the cod and grains and a Portuguese steak. Both were very flavourful and presented beautifully.Great coffee!Definitely recommend coming here for a light lunch that won’t set you back lots of money!A hidden gem!“

“Really pleasant experience, I personally had meat but the restaurant is more focused on marine products, the cuttlefish and octopus had extremely positive feedback and I was not disappointed either. The owner is really nice and a pleasure to talk to!
He even offers aguardente and ginija at the end of the meal, quite a recommended family or group experience!“

“Quite pleasant meal. One of the best fish cataplanas I've ever eaten. The service is very attentive and delicate, the ambient music creates a pleasant atmosphere. The price is, without a doubt, €€€. Well above the so-called normal meal. Worth the experience and the visit.“

“Super well served and well advised.
Very well eaten and pleasant time shared with family.

Vegetarian options: A few choices... even a menu page to choose from.

Parking: A few places in front of the entrance and laterally in front of the restaurant.

Kid-friendliness: Nothing special but well received in this place

Wheelchair accessibility: Accessible entrance and places with choice to facilitate seating“

“I visited this restaurant at lunch time on the way to Porto, and it was nice to be able to eat unexpectedly delicious food. If I get the chance, this is a house I would like to visit again.
The steak, brisket, and salad were all delicious.

Parking: There are plenty of parking spaces in front of the restaurant, with approximately 4-6 parking spaces available.“

“It is without a doubt the best roast chicken in Nazaré without a shadow of a doubt. Yes, it's a tasco! But a tavern with Portuguese Soul where the family atmosphere welcomes us.Whenever you come to Nazaré, it will be a mandatory stop. Ezequiel House.“

“Everything was perfect, great value for money, quality products and fresh extras!
Impeccable hygiene, very friendly and welcoming staff, good atmosphere and delicious desserts, more than sufficient quantities!
Well done O Valeiro, I will come back to you ????“

“My boyfriend and I called to ask if they could book a table for dinner, they said they were going to open the restaurant for us. A very welcoming atmosphere, delicious starters (olives, dry cheese, fresh cheese, etc.), very, very high quality house wine. We ate grilled squid and picanha to share: everything was divine!!! An impeccable service. In the end, I asked for the praise book. To repeat! I recommend!“

“It has pleasantly surprised us. We hesitated to enter because there weren't many people but it was a success. Most of us ordered sea bream and sea bass and they were delicious. Accompanied by potatoes and salad for €12.50. The lady who served us was very attentive and friendly. The meat, if true, was somewhat dry. I recommend eating fish for the price-quality ratio.“

“I love a good burger. We had passed by Hamburgeria Belabuguer regularly since it’s right on the beach in lower Nazaré. A great spot. And the interior vibe is also really great. We ordered a couple of burgers (me the Bells and Mrs had the Lagido, some sweet potato fries and Super Bocks. The beer was very cold (win), the fries were perfect (win) and the burgers were delicious but undercooked (the diff between 4 and 5 stars). All in under €30.“

“The best place without a doubt for any meal of the day, I have been going for several years and they always give the best of their services, they are attentive, friendly, pleasant and wonderful people, as are each and every one of the dishes on the menu. Thank you very much family for that special place.“

“I came as a guest, without high expectations. I left immensely satisfied with the quality of the meats, I had the opportunity to taste almost all of them and it was a real treat. The personal and detailed presentation of the table master was exemplary and immediately made you want to eat the entire menu. Without a doubt a place to return to at future family gatherings. I apologize for the photo, but another proof of satisfaction.“

“Pratus was amazing, the service and food was incredible and we loved itThis will be a staple for whenever we visit PortugalI can confirm that the steak I ate here (Sirloin) was among the greatest steaks I’ve ever hadThank you :)

Dietary restrictions: Were very helpful and accommodating to my allergies here“

“A very good surprise.
The food is very well prepared and, as the eyes also eat, the presentation of the dishes stands out.
Very particular and tasteful decoration. Perfect service.
I not only recommend it as a challenge to go to this restaurant.
Congratulations“

“Fresh and excellent quality seafood. Highlighting the friendliness of the owners and the super affordable price, the excellent quality of the food and, without a doubt, the sea view... Of the two days in Nazaré, we had lunch here on both days. And the beer, the best in Portugal :) Visit, you won't regret it!“

“I don't usually make comments, but Arratel deserves it, we found it from the reviews, a success. Thank you for how much we have eaten, and for the treatment received, close and pleasant, like at home. The food was 10, the dessert was impressive, unbeatable value for money. Quiet environment, ideal to enjoy the moment. We will return for sure.“

“Very good restaurant, fresh produce. Perfect welcome, very reasonable price.
It is better to wander into the streets of Nazaré to discover these authentic restaurants rather than having lunch on the seafront where it is a tourist trap!“

“Vegetarian options: They didn't have anything as such on the menu but they adapted a vegan salad for me, which was one of the most delicious I've ever eaten!! In addition to the friendly service and the atmosphere, the food is very good, homemade Portuguese food with a very good quality-quality ratio. price“

“It is a very cozy and quiet restaurant, from the first day I went I loved the food they serve there, since then it has become my favorite restaurant, they have good prices and the attention from Leonel, Raquel, and the girls at the restaurant. The kitchen is spectacular, they are very nice people and they make you feel at home. You make a great team! So if you are passing through Leiria or Marinha Grande you have to go to restaurant O HISTÓRICO 2 I recommend it a 10!!“

“(Translated by Google) Homemade and very tasty food at a very affordable price.I ate for dessert, a very rich drunken pear with a unique flavor.Will always come back here when in the area!(Original)Comida caseira e muito saborosa, com um preço muito acessível.Comi de sobremesa, uma pera embebedada riquíssima e com um sabor sem igual.Sempre voltarei cá quando estiver na região!“

“Saturday night for a packed lunch. I start with sympathy. Fast service. Good wine (Douriense region). Option for garlic bread, which was on point; I went for a steak on bread and French fries on the plate. All very good. I don't usually comment on the cost of meals, and I won't do so.“

“Surprisingly, the beef steak is amazing. Surprisingly because the place stands out for its incredible views and, for 18 euros, you expect simply passable meat, but the veal was super tender and super tasty. The pork skewer wasn't bad either, but the beef was sublime. In addition, they do not close at midday, which is ideal for Spanish schedules. Congratulations.“

“Today I have a new favorite francesinha... A few years ago I ate here, I wasn't very satisfied and never went back, but lately with so many people speaking highly of Dona Francisca's francesinhas I decided to give it a second chance and in good time I did so. It's my favorite at the moment, even compared to some places where it's a specialty.. Very affordable price too.. Francesinha with side dish and two beers 13.50 euros.. I liked it“

“Very nice! Friendly service, drinks and food were served incredibly quickly - I was really surprised - very unusual for Portugal. It tastes good and the price/performance ratio is extremely fair. The music is pleasant and unobtrusive and the ambience is pleasantly calm without being quiet.“

“I am so happy that we stumbled on this restaurant. The service from Paulo was so sweet and the food was amazing. They were even accommodating with my dog, which made the experience more relaxing. Thank you for the great dinner and wonderful service!“

“A restaurant with a great atmosphere and a beautiful sea view! The owner serves himself and the staff is extremely friendly.
The food is very good!!! Price-performance is great!
Really highly recommended!

Wheelchair accessibility: There is a ramp to enter the restaurant. Disabled parking space in front of the door“
