48 Best Italian Restaurants near Povoa De Santa Iria E Forte Da Casa

“For now, I'm not giving 5 * on everything, as I've only visited O Boss, here in Póvoa de Santa Iria twice, and the one in Pirescoxe, I've lost count of it, and I'm still analyzing and seeing the differences.
But I think you're on the right track, just keep going ????“

“There are pseudo-Italian, proto-Italian, almost Italian restaurants and then there is Padova. In pasta, risotto or pizza, one expression defines the house: On point. In the kitchen there is a hand that knows what it is doing, the pizza maker is a “

“The best francesinhas without a doubt, it just needs to be a little spicier. Not much but slightly. It was a shame that today when I tried to ask for one it was gone. I hope they have more francesinhas in the future because I'll be ordering again.“

“Visiting Lisbon with my family from Boston. Came across this hidden gem while searching for restaurants on google maps. From the time we walked in we were greeted by friendly staff. We chose to sit out back, mainly because we had our two young sons with us. We ordered a caprese salad, minestrone soup, garlic bread, french fries, tomato bruschetta, 2 margharita pizzas and penne carbonara. My goodness! Everything was delicious and the price point was PERFECT! It was wonderful chatting with our server! Clearly everyone at this establishment takes a great deal of pride in what they do. I honestly would drive an hour to eat here again. It’s really that good! Hoping to stop by before our trip back to Boston!“

“As a pizza fan that I am, I couldn't go through Lisbon without trying Forno d'Oro's offering, considered the best pizza in Portugal, according to 50 Top Pizza. The menu includes pizzas inspired by Portuguese gastronomy and, of course, by the great Italian classics that are so popular all over the world. The most striking thing about the restaurant's setting is the wood-burning oven, which is covered, as its name suggests, in a golden color. The staff was very friendly and knew several languages, including Spanish and English. As for food, we ordered two pizzas, one seasonal with Portuguese ingredients and another from the Italian section of the menu. Both lived up to expectations with a very well made dough and rich, quality ingredients. We also tried the tiramisu which was pretty good. Without being the best pizza I have ever had, I would rate it as one of the best and, of course, I would recommend visiting this restaurant if you like this Italian dish or if it is the first time you want to enjoy it with excellent quality.“

“The sandwiches are very tasty and made from fresh ingredients. We had a delicious salad as well but our favorite part was the friendly staff and the owner Angelica who came to say hello and made sure everything was perfect ❤️ it’s an amazing location and the neighborhood of alfalma is the best!“

“Restaurante italiano com fusão portuguesa, com muita qualidade. Atendimento muito atencioso e a comida é saborosa. Saliento as pizas que estão sempre no ponto certo, com uma massa maravilhosa e os ingredientes de qualidade. Os pratos de fusão também são muito bons, mas se procura uma lasanha clássica, não é aqui. Algumas das massas são clássicas, como a carbonara. As sobremesas são boas mas não surpreendem muito. Em suma é um restaurante óptimo para almoço na esplanada, para jantar tem um ambiente simpático também e adequado a crianças.“

“What can I say. Nice spot baby!
Convivial food in a super environment. Outside the classic tourist-catching restaurant scene. You have to look for it and you have to get into it. They love mustard... And so do I. You eat fish, meat and vegetables in tapas style (or pinchos if you passed through the Basques to get here) to share them with others. But the quality is top and the execution excellent. The price is in line with the quality and service. Octavio is a 10 and praise... Very nice and welcoming. If I go back to Lisbon I won't miss it. “

“The server was super friendly and accommodating. I had the veal croquettes and leitao empanadas which were amazing. The Carpaccio is perfectly done and easily enough for two and the shrimp with squid ink was perfect. Great place! Definite return.“

“I had already seen some advertising for this restaurant and the fact that it had carbonara made with pecorino and guanciale increased my curiosity. So there I decided to try it. Experience from heaven, I ordered a few starters, one of which was eggplant in tomato sauce (Parmigiana di melanzane) and also a Bruschette Tricolore. Both good but the parmigiana di melanzane was magnificent. As for the dishes, there is no doubt, I have made carbonara at home several times, I confess that this one is much better, with fresh pasta, thicker but soft and al dente spaghetti, with the perfect guaciale and the sauce made with eggs and creamy pecorino that you just want to eat and not stop. Without a doubt, anyone who likes Italian food would strongly recommend trying the carbonara at this restaurant at least once. You won't regret it. Another dish that was also divine was the Girasoli di burrata e tartufo, where ham is the king of cheese. As for desserts, although we tried the homemade tiramisu and it was actually very good, the star is the Torta Caprese. Simply divine, it is a mixture of bombastic flavor for our mouth. I also recommend eating this dessert at least once in your life. Of course, if you like it, don't stop ?. I was really satisfied with the experience and of course, I highly recommend it to anyone who likes Italian food but also anyone who wants different experiences. It should be noted that the restaurant also sells fresh pasta outside, so anyone who wants can stop by and take it. They even sell a carbonara “kit” to make at home. Genius. And if I can say, I will come back.“

“Very good service and excellent food, we were there late and got served our dinner without problems. We promised to come back before our departure home but finally could’nt make it wich was a bummer since we enjoyed a lot the first time. Maybe next time!“

“The food is ok. Tasty and fair for the price. I ordered a truffle risotto and my husband ordered a carbonara pasta. The only order I didn't like was my drink, a red fruit sangria. Pretty bad, for the price it should be better. The service was great.“

“I had Carbonara & Tomato Seafood Risotto and it was delicious! Does risotto feel more like seafood rice?
The atmosphere of eating outside was very nice, but it was disappointing that there was construction nearby as of August 24.
Service is ok“

“If you haven't been to this place, you're missing out big time! Mushroom lover or not, you need to try this restaurant! In some dishes you don't even see the mushrooms, but rest assured, they are there. We tried a few dishes, my favourites were the perfect egg, the hummus, the risotto, and the desserts. Special node to the desserts, especially if you enjoy a bit of savouriness, definitely go for them. The restaurant has a very interesting character that is left open to interpretation and it's a good point for discussion. Overall a fantastic experience, definitely a must when visiting Lisbon. You won't find traditional Portuguese dishes, but you might find a new favourite restaurant!“

“I was surprised at how good this place is. It is located in a big mall, but the atmosphere is greate. Pasta linguini with shrimp ? ? is fantastic. Also, they made for us cocktail, which was not even on a menu. Very friendly stuff, and the list of desserts will impress you. I recommend this Italian restaurant, good price, good food, good service.“

“Let's start with the space, careful, neat and elegant decoration.
Attentive and friendly staff
It has a highchair for our babies, which is a very important factor for us.
I love pizza but this place surpassed everything.
I will go back without a doubt.
I went on my birthday with my family and we loved it.

Kid-friendliness: Dining chair“

“The restaurant is pleasant, a little noisy because it is full but the atmosphere is friendly.
The food is very good, but I think it's overdone, I couldn't eat all of the rissotto because there was just too much.
Friendly staff despite having little understanding of Portuguese.“

“Came here based on the reviews. Had a hard time finding it because the Google map location was wrong. Finally found it the food court of the shopping centre.

Food wise. It was good value and the taste was ok. 4* from me because of the fast food type experience.“

“Very nice cosy place, food is good staff is friendly. We are going back to celebrate my birthday there.Things to consider before going, there is no place to change a child, so no changing nappies in this place. The other thing is that their website is not updated, so the closing times are not right. I recommend it.“

“I was attracted by the favorable comments. I've already gone back and the three Bs are confirmed (if you want to know what it's all about, you'll have to go there). Food well prepared and presented on the plate, fast and friendly service, very affordable price. Varied and delicious desserts. Despite being very popular, the atmosphere is peaceful.

Wheelchair accessibility: Terrace and dining room at sidewalk level.“

“Great value for the price. But the atmosphere needs improvement, looks really outdated.

I suggest the carbonara.

The carpaccio is outdated. Tasted okay
but could be adjusted for something more modern. Would not order again as it is now.

Carpaccio suggestion:
Sauce Integration: Instead of serving balsamic vinegar on the side, use a balsamic reduction directly on the carpaccio or try a different sauce that complements the dish.

Rucula Placement: Serve arugula on the side rather than packing it on top. This prevents overwhelming the flavors and allows guests to customize their bites.

Toppings: Add a variety of toppings for extra texture and flavor, such as:

• Pine nuts
• Capers
• Micro-greens
• Freshly shaved truffle (not truffle oil)

Balanced Presentation: Ensure the toppings and flavors are evenly distributed to create a consistent and enjoyable bite every time.“

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Simply the best pizzeria in the region! Pizzeria O Boss never disappoints. The pizzas are always delicious, with perfect dough and fresh toppings. The atmosphere is welcoming and the service is exceptional, always with a smile on your face. Furthermore, deliveries are fast and the pizzas always arrive hot. There's no mistake, it's the ideal place for a great meal!“

“What can we say about this house that is already part of the “furniture” here in Infantado? Yes, there are pasta dishes and salads, but the name of the establishment says Pizza or weren't she the queen of this house. In reality this house is surroundings. The pizzas are very good, very nice dough, they have the particularity of being “drizzled” with cheese and they are really tasty. Even the garlic bread is a must. Children especially love it (adults too). For those who live in the surrounding area, the quality of a Divina pizza has nothing to do with the pizza chains that exist. Don't even think twice. Also note, order the Sangria, you won't regret it. I warn you that this house does not have a TV, but there is no need for it, it is a space to eat and socialize. Mandatory.“

“I had read some negative review from some fellow Italian, saying that this place didn't served a real Neapolitan pizza: wake up, you can't eat a real Neapolitan pizza other than in Naples, nowhere else you can find the same ingredients and wood fire ovens. That said I didn't disliked the pizza here, actually I would say that it was above average for Portugal, where frequently pizzas are atrocious, made with indigestible doe and assassinated with a cacofony of toppings.“

“The food was delicious and the staff friendly and kind. Very pleasant atmosphere. Three of us shared a sampler appetizer, garlic naan, butter chicken, vegetable biryani, and a palaak dish. Chutneys were also amazing. English is also spoken. Recommended.“

“Tasty food and fair price, however don't expect something more refined. During the week there are menu options that are well served and with a wide choice, which is not normally found in other restaurants. A good option if you want to not spend a lot and be close to major tourist attractions.“

“(Translated by Google) I had lunch there yesterday.I was a very pleasant surprise.Excellent food and desserts combined with 5 star service.I strongly recommend(Original)Almocei lá ontem.Fui uma muito agradável surpresa.Comida e sobremesas excelentes aliado a um atendimento 5 estrelas.Recomendo vivamente“

“I was surprised when I saw one of these establishments in Odivelas, it's an Italian style restaurant, they have pasta and pizza, but they also have other things.What I missed was a terrace. We stayed in a room without windows, it creates a heavy atmosphere (for me).They also have a delivery service, but I think it's only for pizza.“

“I recently dined at Luzzo Pizzeria and had a wonderful experience. We ordered two pizzas, and both were delicious, with a perfect balance of flavors and a crispy, well-cooked crust. The staff was incredibly friendly and attentive, making us feel welcome from the moment we walked in. If you're looking for a cozy spot with great pizza and excellent service, Luzzo Pizzeria is a good choice!“

“The Punggi pizza was delicious, and the aglio olio and carbonara pasta were also delicious! Above all, the view was truly beautiful, and the staff were very friendly! Even though I made a mistake while ordering in English, they smiled and understood everything! I think this was the most pleasant restaurant I had a meal in during my 3 days in Lisbon! I recommend it!“

“Very welcoming place, delicious and fantastic pizzas. I loved it and go back whenever I can. Giant pizzas and a lot worth it, just a very affordable place with an average price. I recommend. Congratulations to these restaurants.

Note: They need to change chairs as the wooden ones hurt from sitting for so long. It would be better to have cushions when sitting.

For 6 people I paid around 65 euros.“

“(Translated by Google) Delicious, fresh and hot. Service note 1000. Helpful, friendly and attentive. Highly recommend!(Original)Deliciosos, fresquinhos e quentinhos. Atendimento nota 1000. Prestativa, simpatica e atenciosa. Recomendo muito!“

“(Translated by Google) Very tasty pizzas. Seemingly small but with a large amount of filling. They could increase the diameter of the tread, keeping the stuffing.Pleasant staff.(Original)Pizzas muito saborosas. Aparentemente pequenas mas com uma grande quantidade de recheio. Podiam aumentar o diâmetro da pisa, mantendo o recheio.Pessoal agradável.“

“In addition to the food being phenomenal, the staff are exceptionally professional. Especially one of the employees who always treated my family and my dog ​​with great affection, whenever he brought our meals home. Thank you ✨️ we need more people like this!“

“Simple and unpretentious restaurant, but with grouper fillets, with tomato rice and spectacular cockles. The black pork cheeks were also very good.
It's great to discover restaurants where the biggest concern is to serve well.“

“(Translated by Google) I've been coming here for years and I love the taste. I like both Indian and Italian food. I recommend 100%(Original)Tenho anos a vir comer aqui e adoro o sabor. Gosto tanto comida indiana como a italiana. Recomendo 100%“

“I went with no expectations and really enjoyed it. Exceptional service and food with absolutely nothing to write home about. I liked everything, it was a good experience, I would definitely repeat it.Of particular note are the duck risotto with orange and the apple sangria... Perfect!“

“Never disappoints. The pizzas are well made, very tasty and have a huge variety, it will take a while to try them all. We can take a shortcut through the option of two half pizzas on the same plate, which is an added value for Lucca. The friendliness and efficiency of the staff also helps. Recommended.“

“The restaurant offers pizzas and pastas. The pizzas are from 6-8 Euros and have about 20 different flavors. The pizza was simple but very nice with a thin crust. We had 5 pizzas, drinks and a starter we payed 50 Euros total. Also, the service was fast.“

“Just returned from Lisbon and enjoyed ZeroZero several times. It is not a 5 Star restaurant with white napkins, elegant atmosphere and stuffy waiters. It does produce 5-star food and service, however. The waiters' attention to our needs superseded expectations. We ate pizza there, but also enjoyed two amazing pasta meals with an absolutely beautiful bottle of wine (encouraged by our waiter) and finished off with a gelato. We loved the food and the people there and would encourage all to go.“

“En nombre de todos mis compañeros de vida, Mi experiencia en este lugar es sensacional. Hablo desde mi gusto y mi cosmo visión del mundo, las tostas de frango y queiso son las mejores, seguida muy de cerca de las mixtas. Aún no comenté nada sobre las cervezas, pero, aquí estoy escribiendo este mensaje. Gracias de parte de todos. Gran sitio. Buen espacio. Gran servicio.“
