“They have fast, friendly and relaxed service.
They serve in menu and menu mode.
We decided on the menu, starter, dish, drink, dessert and coffee.
Sea bream, tuna and fish.
We lost ourselves in the Sintra queijada and the pavlova??
Positive point: parking“

“I have been twice for dinner with family - they are regulars and love it. We don’t hold back when ordering and I suspect we can be a little ‘unconventional’. Not demanding - I hope- but we will order extras to try them. Never disappointed here I must say. It’s always a ‘Yes’ to any request. I loved every morsel with special praise going to my cherry profiteroles which were by any standard, sublime. I should have ordered another portion to take out as a treat the following night. Sam and Nick are just a lovely couple and cope wonderfully with our non- stop chattering. I enjoyed it so much I picked up the bill. See you again as soon as we get back to the Algarve.“

“We went to Solar for my birthday lunch. I had not been to Solar for some years now, but it continues to be a north star for excellent food in Lisbon. Lots of great choices in the menu, we went for the "arroz de lagosta e gambas" and the "bacalhau assado". Both excellent and in generous portions too. As a starter we had some delicious "peixinhos da horta" and we finished off with "arroz doce"...and it was also very good and in a big portion. Service is extremely professional! Staff is always there when you need them, without a feeling of "over-pressure" you sometimes have with over-eager people. Not a cheap place for sure, but you don't get that quality in a lot of places. We paid about 95€ for two people. You absolutely need to book, as the place is always packed. And that brings to my only less positive point: it can be very noisy....but then people are enjoying themselves with an amazing meal with friends. Must Go restaurant in Lisbon“

“The food is prepared with care and cooked to perfection. I recommend the beef cheek with gratin. The fried seafood mix is also a great pick. Service can be slow due to being overcrowded, yet it is worth the wait and the staff is kind and professional. This location has both interior and exterior seating, keep “

“Revelation.
Very nice, professional and helpful service. Nice welcome, excellent proactive contact with guests.
You can feel that the approach to food is very good. The menu is not overloaded, the dishes are partly made from home-made products.
We can definitely recommend what we ate: Camaro a Tasco, Choco Frito, Cacholeira. And delicious ice cream.
The background music is also spot on, and there's a local atmosphere so you don't feel like you're a tourist.
Thank you. We will try to come back someday.“

“We just spent a couple of days in Cascais and went twice. Once for lunch and once for dinner. Food is great, cool laidback atmosphere. Service is super friendly. Just a bit slow at the end when we wanted to pay and leave (both times we had to ask for the check multiple times). But a cool place to eat and have a drink nonetheless.“
“We booked here for our anniversary, it was an exceptional experience that exceeded all our expectations. From the moment we arrived, the elegant and contemporary decor set the stage for an exceptional evening. The staff was incredibly welcoming and attentive, ensuring we felt pampered throughout our visit.
The tasting menu was a culinary journey that showcased chefs’ mastery and creativity. Each course was meticulously crafted, presenting a harmonious blend of flavors and textures that delighted the palate. The presentation of every dish was a work of art, making the dining experience as visually stunning as it was delicious.
One of the highlights was the innovative use of local ingredients, which brought a unique and fresh perspective to the cuisine. The balance of traditional techniques with modern twists made each course exciting and memorable.
LAB by Sergi Arola is a true gem in the world of fine dining. The combination of exceptional food, outstanding service, and a refined atmosphere makes it a must-visit destination for anyone seeking a remarkable dining experience. We highly recommend this restaurant and look forward to returning.“

“Small bar in the Belém neighborhood of Lisbon, with a small terrace. Very good homemade food. The waiter was very attentive and very pleasant. Value for money, the best in Lisbon by far. If you are in the Belém neighborhood, do not hesitate to eat at this Bar.

“A really lovely late lunch/early dinner. Sat outside and had a great time. We got piri piri prawns, breaded cuttlefish, bruschetta, sautéed mushrooms, honey sausage - would recommend all of those! Sangria was great and we tried the port too. The service was excellent, very kind people and felt like a very authentic experience and opportunity to learn more about Sintra. It’s about 5 minutes from the station so ideal for the start or end of a day trip. Also, they have soft blankets if it feels a little chilly. A highlight of our holiday and a meal we won’t forget!“

“Above expectations: tasty food, cool atmosphere sitting at the tables in the street and very gentle snd caring staff.
Had dinner for 2. We were welcomed with some slices of bread accompanied by persil and garlic butter. We shared and enjoyed all we ordered: stuffed shrimps with tomato snd garlic base, grilled squid (served with white rice) and polpo a la gallega. All was amazing, but we “had to” take a second time the shrimps, so to enjoy more shrimp and use the tomato and garlic soup as a top for the rice we got with the squid. The rice topped with the tasty soup turned into an unexpected and delicious course.
We finally took a lemon mousse topped with crumbled biscuits: a fresh and delicious way to end the dinner. Highly recommended to go, and suggested to book a table says in advance.“

“Lovely restaurant tucked into a beautiful street in Colares, Portugal. Our dining companion had the tasty Shrimp soup and we had the fresh fish entrees. We had a wonderful leisurely lunch with wine and good companions. This spot has a serene vibe with beautiful food and scenery.“
“Lovely unassuming sandwich shop on the Main Street. The sandwiches are made fresh each day, are very reasonably priced and taste great. The owner is such a lovely man and always welcomes customers with a smile. Try the freshly squeezed lemon juice for €1.50, it’s really refreshing. Bottle of water only 1 euro.Cash only, no cards accepted.“

“We walked past the touristy stuff and thought maybe to grab a sandwich .. maybe takeaway for the train. Instead, we found our way into an incredibly charming space and got both a magical list of craft beers/ciders, but the absolutely best sandwich I have ever had. Do yourself a favor and pass up the touristy sidewalk fillers for a Cachaco de porco assado lentamente!“

“The place is nice and the staff is friendly and helpful.
The pasta is served… differently. You won’t get the plate with the pasta directly. The waiter will come with a different portable table on which they have the pans in which the pasta was cooked. Then they’ll put the pasta on the plate in front of you. It’s stupid, but for some reason, really enjoyable.
We really liked it and we recommend the restaurant.
If you go, make sure to order some wine, it will make everything even better.“

“A delightful time was had here. This is a teeny restaurant, run by a husband and wife who clearly take a lot of pride over every detail - from the decor and ambience, to the quality of every ingredient on the recipe. The hospitality was generous and appreciated - and the food was delicious. I had a couple of the starters which were interesting and very tasty. A good time was had by all. 10/10 would recommend.“

“If you’re looking for a genuine, lovely, local place to eat, search no further. This is the place you’re looking for . Extremely friendly, quaint little restaurant with hearty food and great house wine (I tried the white). It is really small and thus cozy and the staff is attentive and well meaning. You will find yourself immediately at home here. Additionally, they broadcast sports on their (discreet but present) screens indoors and out in the street. You can grab a stool outside and watch the match while you relish a plate of pimientos al padron with a nice cold draft. Yeah… recommend !“

“I can't give it 5 stars because the service left a little to be desired, we rushed as soon as we arrived to order because they closed at 3:00 p.m. (but they accept a reservation at 2:30 p.m.)… Otherwise everything was good, good cuisine (the fish and very delicious grilled octopus) and reasonable price.“

“Nice restaurant with very pleasant team.
The moules are really Good especially the Gratinados as a starter.
As for the main dishes, it would be great if we can have a refill of moules because even if they are big moules it is not enough for someone with a great appetite.
As non-alcoholic, we didn't try the gin

“The food was good, the plates were quite filling, the prices were consistent with what was served and the location and the attentive and friendly staff but I want to make special mention that a client came with his dog and as soon as he sat down they immediately gave him water and even gave him water. They gave a prize. They were attentive and loving even with the dog and for me it is something super important. The place is spacious and has a terrace but it fills up quickly.
Parking: It's crazy to take the car to Sintra
Wheelchair accessibility: Sintra itself is a place that is not very accessible due to the number of slopes you encounter along the way.“

“If we return to Sintra, we will definitely repeat. Homemade food and very good service. The dishes are abundant and at a good price.
First we ordered the grelhado cheese which was very good. The house offers you starters at the table and if you don't want them you just have to tell them so they don't charge you for them. For the main course we ordered a bacalhau with cream and a maminha. The food was 10 and we were full. The attention is very close and very good even if we are tourists, they treat you as if you were one of the locals. They have made us feel very comfortable. My congratulations to the place for achieving such good results in Sintra, where most restaurants are expensive and offer poor quality.“

“We were nearby and decided to go and meet Cha
Cha Cha. The pizzas and waffles seemed like a perfect combination, and they did!
For starters, we ordered the mozzarella with ham, a good starter to start the meal, with the freshness of the cheese contrasting with the flavor of the ham.
For pizzas, we chose À Guilho and Cha Cha Chá.
À Guilho, for us, was the absolute star of our lunch. It's a pizza that captures this snack that we all love very well. The Cha Cha Chá is also very good, with a touch of spice from the jalapeño. What we can see and appreciate is that the pizzas are well served and with fresh and tasty ingredients.
To finish, I had to try a mini waffle (I didn't have the stomach for the normal size). I ordered it with Nutella (of course!) and it's a proper waffle, respecting the liege recipe! You have to try it, even if it's the mini one.
I also want to highlight Joana's friendliness while we were at the restaurant, always concerned about knowing our opinion and making sure everything went well, and Cláudio's talent with the pizzas and their toppings.
I hope to return soon to try Sem Nome!“

“It's very difficult to have everything good and sometimes it doesn't just depend on the restaurant, it depends on the diners. And today everything fell into place, basket with hot bread and cracklings already inside the bread, a person received like this even forgets to place the order. Then a menu that, after looking at it a lot, leaves you thinking that, well, well, you could order almost everything. I ended up placing myself in the "hands" of the lady who attended to me, with kindness and pure joy, and she chose for me, and the certainty and security with which she did so, without fear, is truly from someone who knows the excellent quality of the service for which She shows her face, there aren't many like that. Once again Mr. João, thank you very much for everything. More than knowing how to cook, it's being able to convey on the plate all the feelings that go into what you do. For you it was just another day, for me it was a discovery. Just two minutes of talking to you and if I hadn't had a sweet tooth I wouldn't need dessert anymore. We will definitely see each other more often, that's all I can tell you. Thanks.“

“We discovered this place by chance coming up from Belém, after seeing the area, and we really liked it: a humble place, with homemade food, but it was very worth it. Great value for the price.
Although the house specialty was roast chicken (we saw several people coming to order and take it home), we ordered a beef skewer with bacon, which came with rice, fries and salad, and also a shrimp omelette , with the same accompaniment; We really liked both things. Strong dishes with very good flavor.
The menu is extensive, with numerous options to choose from. The waiter who served us was very friendly. Two dishes with a drink for €28, excellent value for money. Highly recommended.
Vegetarian options: There are several meat-free options.“

“Excellent place with great food and outstanding service! Lately it’s our place to go whenever we have guests coming over as we know Assador won’t disappoint. They are very attentive to our order and our needs, including our dog☺️. Today we received great service from Ruben who ensured the food and the choices we made are exactly what we wanted. He kindly brought a bowl with cold water for our dog as well! I will always recommend this restaurant for a fabulous meal and great service.“

“A quality restaurant. Excellent service. Product quality. A magnificent kitchen. A most pleasant atmosphere. Beautiful dining room and very nice terrace. 20 years of customers, every time we are in Cascais we eat there at least once. The price depends on what is requested. It can be very reasonable. And if the price is not the problem (it will never be exaggerated, Cascais is not Cannes) you will surely get it right.“

“It is a good place to go with friends after a long day and have some beers or cider. When we went there was live music (rock style and similar). The atmosphere and decoration of the place are very good, although the place is not too big (it has two spaces: a first space at the entrance where the bar is and a second, more reserved space near the bathrooms).“

“Place to do, very good food, welcoming waiter (if you have a sense of humor), among the places to eat in Lisbon (eat locally) it's a very good option! To do ! The octopus salad is very well seasoned! Very good dish (one of the rare Portuguese places where you can eat well)! On the other hand, you have to pay the price to eat in volume (if that doesn't scare you, go for it!)“

“Excellent atmosphere, good service and excellent food.
The only negative point is that the tables were too close together, leading to little privacy.

“I arrived super stressed because I was looking for somewhere to eat on a summer Sunday, after all, there aren't many decent beachfront options in that region. After walking around for a long time looking, I ended up getting a table quickly at EMMA and I was very well served by the attendant called Mariana, a super friendly Brazilian.
He calmed me down with kindness and served me perfectly. He suggested house specialty starters, always asking for what was needed.
We ordered two salads which were ok, nothing special or extraordinary. The salad lacked a little dressing and the fried cuttlefish was accompanied by a very greasy mayonnaise sauce, but everything was as good as possible.
I have to emphasize that Mariana's service made all the difference in the experience as a whole. Even in the scorching heat and with the restaurant full, she had a smile and friendliness.“

“The food was very tasty and we were full. But it would be cool if there was cheese on the vegetarian burger too. Otherwise the waitress (young lady with brown hair) was really nice and the food was brought quickly. If you're waiting for the train, I can recommend stopping by there :) Price-performance ratio is great.
Vegetarian options: Vegetarian burger. Unfortunately it doesn't have cheese.“

“The service is very friendly, and the food is very quick.
I ordered the Vegan Francesinha and loved it. It comes well served and is very good, the best I've ever eaten. I think the fries could be crispier and saltier. I also ordered Sweet Potato Mashed as an extra, but I didn't love it, I thought the orange flavor was too much.
For dessert, I've tried the Serradura with Lime Zest, which was very good, and served well, and the Chocolate Mousse with Salted Caramel, which is also very tasty.
I loved!
Vegetarian options: There are vegetarian options.
Parking: The restaurant is on the side of the road, it is not very easy to find parking.“

“We recently spent a few nights in Estoril and found this gem of a restaurant there. It is on a side so, a little hard to find but well worth the effort. The food was so fresh and beautifully presented. Small, intimate dining room. Lovely service.“
“Fantastic experience , both for vegetarian and non -vegetarian people , having a full course vegetarian on the level of “haute-cousine” is pretty rare for a “set menu” kind of places. Exquisite experience , we were the only once in the room , and that was also a magnificent experience to watch the team cooking (doing their magic?) at the open kitchen. Would recommend bering seated with a view for a kitchen. That’s a theater !
Vegetarian options: As I am vegetarian and my date is not, took a whole veg option , while he enjoyed a “normal” meal. We were both happy!
Parking: Parking among other residents .. not really free at dinner time but still possible to find a spot . Give yourself extra 10 min and you’ll be fine“

“For me, Botequim is the best restaurant I have been in my life... It is not only for the food and the wine but also the way the owners make you feel like if you were part of the family. During our last vacation, we drove an extra 3 hours from Algarve just to have lunch there... When you sit at the counter, the adventure starts! Everything is fabulous... Can't wait to go again!“
