12 Best Italian Restaurants near Penafiel

“I had already ordered a calzone for home before and I was quite satisfied, which is why I won't give it less than 4 stars.This time, I went to eat at the restaurant and was extremely disappointed. I ordered a prego on a plate, and for the price (€12.5) I expected something decent. Of course, I was in an Italian restaurant and should have ordered Italian food, but in any case I will have to give my opinion on what I ate. It was a dish with a poor quality steak (full of nerves and difficult to chew), fries with a lot of salt and a salad that looked like it was from a package. I would have been satisfied with this item on my plate if I had paid €6. I can't be satisfied having paid €12.5.Also, the communication with those who helped me was not the best. I was asked if I wanted bread as a starter and I'm sure I explained myself in such a way as to ask for something simple, I wanted it to be a little bread and as simple as possible. They brought me a whole garlic bread with lots of olive oil and oregano, of which I only managed to eat approximately 1/4.I didn't want to be the person who "just criticizes" but I'm sure whoever served that dish is aware of what they're serving and it's a huge lack of consideration for the customers. So I can't say well. I hope it helps to improve, however.As I said at the beginning, I had a very positive experience in the past when I ordered a calzone from this same place.“

“Excellent pizzeria with many options in the center of Penafiel. Wide variety of pizzas and pastas, as well as affordable daily rates, starting at €5.50 during the week. Wonderful service, impeccable staff! The terrace has an extra refinement! It's worth knowing and enjoying. White wine sangria is a plus! I highly recommend it.“

“Space although small, very clean and cozy atmosphere. Very friendly service, just a little slow in service due to being full of people. We ordered 2 pizzas and they were great! Very good, the only correction would be for the craft beers menu with prices a little above the average of the local competition.“

“Pizzas were nice. Not the cheapest meal but good taste and quality was good. Service wasn’t the fastest but considering our excellent waiter, Carlos, was the only one actually working at front of house, it was good. No idea why the other three or four staff were just literally standing around doing absolutely nothing. I kid you not, what is the point of having staff if they do nothing… one rearranged some menus for 30 seconds then went back to standing there doing nothing. It was a joke. Carlos was doing everything, from seating to serving food, taking orders and payments, for several tables. Not one of the other lazy staff moved a muscle.“

“(Translated by Google) Pleasant space. Very good food for the price. Points less favorable to the delay of the service and also the facilities that need to be renovated, in particular the bathrooms. Other than that very good.(Original)Espaço agradável. Comida muito boa relativamente ao preço. Pontos menos favoráveis à demora do serviço e também as instalações a necessitar de serem renovadas, em especial as casas de banho. Fora isso muito bom.“

“Very well received.
Own parking is very easy.

Super attentive service, always attentive to our needs.

Very beautiful environment too.

The foods were delicious. The brownie ??

There is a loyalty card, when you buy 9 pizzas, the 10th is a gift.“

“I really liked! We ate garlic bread with cheese and bacon, the potatoes with cheddar cheese and bacon are incredibly good, I had a spectacular Calzone that I loved, and the kinder bueno cheesecake dessert is good. But the crepes are divine! I went with a group of friends, the atmosphere is good for talking and hanging out, and the staff are very friendly.

Wheelchair accessibility: Yes, it is, there is Portuguese pavement around it but the entrance is level.“

“Stumbled across this restaurant whilst sightseeing, so glad we did, great menu choice friendly waiters and relaxing atmosphere. I’m not a fish eater and struggle to find menu options but here there were plenty from traditional francesinhas to Caesar salads. Shame we found it on our last but one day.“

“Every time I come here it's a pleasant surprise - excellent food from pizza, pasta or mains! They also stand out for their friendliness and the freshness of their ingredients!Everything is made with care from starters to desserts (especially the biscuit cake!)“

“(Translated by Google) For me the best pizzas in Lousada!!! Friendly staff! It's a snack bar with francesinhas, pizzas, pastas, appetizers, among other things.... There's always a pizza or pasta of the day, but you can order à la carte... There's a terrace and an indoor terrace. For dessert there are always homemade cakes! I strongly advise you to visit!!!(Original)Para mim as melhores pizzas de Lousada!!! Funcionários simpáticos! É um snack-bar com francesinhas, pizzas, massas, tábuas de petiscos entre outras coisas....Tem sempre uma pizza ou uma massa do dia, mas pode-se pedir a carta...Tem esplanada e uma esplanada interior. Para sobremesa tem sempre bolos caseiros! Aconselho vivamente a visitar!!!“

“Good service and general friendliness. I have known the house for many years now. In small details, namely the ingredients used in the food, it has seen better days. However, not enough to make me stop being a customer. As I said, "small details".“

“We had the Salmão em crosta de especiarias cajun, Picanha grelhada de Uruguai and Salada César with Picanha and it was delightful. Portion sizes were generous. Our server was friendly and helpful. Helder, the owner, came out and spoke with us for a bit and we had a nice conversation. Highly recommend checking this place out.“
