Portuguese Restaurants near Santa Ovaia, PT

“Nice restaurant with delicious food. The portions are huge and there is a lot of choice. Goat, sheep, beef and for those who want there is fish. You will receive delicious bread in advance, with olives and cheese/meat from the region. The ambiance is classic Portuguese and that makes it very cozy. They are also extremely friendly to children. And all for a friendly price. In short, highly recommended.“

“Incredible! We went to dinner at this restaurant to celebrate our anniversary and we couldn't choose better. The food is undoubtedly spectacular, from the original and delicious starters to the main dishes and desserts ??? but we will never forget the friendliness, professionalism and availability of the entire team. We went with our 5-month-old baby, and when they realized that he was tantrum because it was hot inside the restaurant, they quickly offered to move us to a table outside, helping to carry everything that was on our table. If we had to evaluate these employees, it would be much more than 5 stars. Thank you for everything, you stayed in our hearts.“

“Excursion from Gondomar, Sunday 30th April. At the beginning, passengers were hesitant because it is a buffet service, but they will end up being delighted with the quality of the meals, the desserts, the hygiene of the space and the parking lot. The person responsible for the excursion, Júlio Almeida, I congratulate D. Isabel, her daughter and her collaborators, everything was 5 stars. Thank you very much“

“There were 7 of us and we ate ham and cod à Brás. The ham was exceptional, caramelized and tender, accompanied by roast potatoes, perfectly cooked. The wine was a Cabriz. The room is modest, but the friendliness and “welcome” make up for it.“

“Nice authentic Portuguese restaurant. Nice interior, although bit outdated at some points. Friendly staff,very straight forward and no posh. Simply lovely. Food is good:nice portions and tastefull. The big bummer are the table stands/holders for the salt & pepper (rusty!!) and also the ones for vinegar and oil (paint fell off) ...they really need to be replaced.. (see photos)“

“Magnífica experiência.
Serviço e sala irrepreensíveis, cuidados, com mesa confortável e espaçosa. Sentimo-nos como se fôssemos as únicas pessoas no restaurante, apesar de estar cheio.
As entradas foram bem: folhado de queijo da Serra e mel muito bem, alheira de caça muito bem, pataniscas médias. Nada de errado, mas não eram melhores que quaisquer outras.
Para prato principal, a vitela assada à moda de Lafões foi, de longe, a melhor que já comi. Ponto da carne perfeito, saborosa, textura impecável. Migas de grelos e broa muito bem.
De sobremesa, boa mousse de chocolate (85%) e uma espécie de cheesecake de frutos silvestres, com um gelado de framboesa caseiro.
Vinhos Cabriz e Santar a preços muito sensatos.
A repetir!“

“Uitstekend restaurant, altijd veel Portugezen en expats. Populaire dagmenus maar ook uitstekende kaart opties. De bediening is sinds perfect, soms beetje lethargisch, afhankelijk van de persoon. De baas springt vaak in en is inderdaad 100 procent gericht op zijn klanten, erg attent. We komen hier ongeveer een keer per maand, mooie wandeling afstand van Côja voor een fijne lunch.

Parking: Ruim voldoende parkeergelegenheid aan de straatzijde.“

“Incredible space, with spectacular service, family atmosphere/close to the customer.The owners are tireless, always available and attentive.Super attentive to the kids.Very good food, affordable prices.I highly recommend it! It's time to go back.“

“THE BEST DONUTS! ? They make some of the best donuts I've ever tried! These things are huge! Super tasty, and great prices ? Each donut was like 1 euro and were certainly more than enough to fill you up and have you satisfied. Staff has always been very nice and speak a decent amount of English ? 10 stars out of 5 haha. I visit here everytime just to see what they have ?“

“A small but cozy restaurant with quick service and friendly staff.
I recommend the octopus, which is excellent, accompanied by house green wine and traditional bread.
Preferably on the terrace as it has great natural shade.“

“Restaurant to recommend.
Very pleasant and well prepared food.
One downside, it's a little noisy, but that's not the restaurant's fault, but rather that of customers who unfortunately don't realize that the atmosphere is sober.
Nothing to say about the service and food.
I will definitely return.
Well done.“

“Today I called at the last minute and asked for a cake for my son's 1st birthday. They did the impossible and the cake is incredible ♡ THANK YOU! This is the first time I've ordered there... and I'm always so satisfied. But today they exceeded expectations ♡“

“The food was good, the service good, music good. Constructive criticism is:- Do not put beer in wine glasses or water in wine glasses. Use the correct vessel- it makes a world of difference. The waiter also seemed a little hurried although the restaurant wasn’t busy!“

“Super friendly service and the food was divine!!! I haven't eaten chanfana like this in a long time.

Go and choose traditional dishes that you won’t regret!

I'll be back whenever I'm in the area

And the sawdust was also very good!“

“(Translated by Google) A space known by the locals, good food, friendly and quick service. It doesn't stand out with advertising but the shared space of the cafe with the dining room is of a good size. The products made are local and sometimes organic. For a day it was a good option and not very busy.(Original)Espaço conhecido pelos locais, boa comida, atendimento simpático e célere. Nao se destaca com publicidade mas o espaco partilhado de cafe com sala de refeições é de boa dimensão. Os produtos confecionados sao locais e por vezes biologicos. Para uma diaria foi uma boa opção e nao muito movimentado.

Parking: Estacionamento publico junto ao multiusos de Tábua.“

“What a gem!We visited for breakfast (buffet) and dinner (degustation menu) and had an amazing time. The variety of choices available and the beautiful details made this experience one to repeat.Staff are very welcoming and knowledgeable and will go the extra mile to ensure that costumers are happy. A special mention to the person who served us dinner (unfortunately we didn't get his name): he took the time to explain everything and answer all of our questions. You could tell he is doing a job that he loves. Thank you!“

“Super friendly people with really good fish and meat for very affordable prices. We were quite late but they still served us anyway. Service, food and mood were super nice. You can eat traditional good food here. We recommend bacalhou na brasa and beef steak of the house and bifadinis. All were very good!“

“(Translated by Google) Cosy, simple and familiar place. Fast and efficient service. The very nice lady came right away to receive us. I recommend the coriander feet with fried bread and the rosy chicken. Traditional and comfort food. The almond pasteis are fantastic.(Original)Local acolhedor, simples e familiar. Atendimento rápido e eficiente. A sra muito simpática veio logo receber nos. Recomendo os pezinhos de coentrada com pão frito e a galinha corada. Comida tradicional e de conforto. Os pasteis de amêndoa são fantásticos.“

“(Translated by Google) For us, the food is very good, very well prepared, it arrives at the table very hot, which is very important for us and well served. Superb!(Original)Para nós a comida está muito boa muito bem preparada chega a mesa bem quente isso e muito importante para nós e bem servido. Soberbo !“

“We recently dined at Restaurant ‘O Toino Moleiro, and it was an amazing experience from beginning to end. The moment we walked in, we were greeted with warm smiles and a cozy, elegant atmosphere that set the tone for the evening. The service was impeccable. The staff were extremely polite.
The food was nothing short of spectacular and extremely delicious. We ordered sea bass which was accompanied by potatoes and salad. It was bursting with flavor.
The combination of tasty food, impeccable service and cozy atmosphere- what more can one ask for?

Our only regret is not eating there sooner but you know what they say, save the best for last :D

We highly recommend this place!

Farewell Tábua ❤️“

“The 5 stars are worth it for the food (I recommend the veal ribs, great). Very reasonable price/quality. The lady was extremely friendly and professional. I advise the owners to avoid having people at the counter drinking beer and talking loudly in the “tasca” type, it is not the right environment considering the image of the rest of the space. Thanks“

“They had a menu of the day but we arrived at night and ordered some lizard tentacles which turned out to be an octopus leg with green beans. I wasn't hungry so I ordered an omelette and they brought me a huge omelette with a plate of fries. All for 23e, for starters a bread with cheese and a delicious sardine pate.The best of the best Rosa, charming, 6 stars for Rosa, what a crack!!“

“Despite booking online through on OpenTable they didn't have our booking. That didn't matter as it was a 5.00pm pre theatre booking so we were the only ones there when we arrived. However what did matter was that on the booking they asked what was the occasion, so our occasion was not acknowledged as it had been in Boulevard Brasserie restaurant. We ordered the charred cauliflower (which is a whole cauliflower so a bit big for 2 of us) and the prawns and the half chicken piri piri and the tomato salad (nicest tomatoes ever!) . The menu actually says the small plates will arrive first and then the chicken and sides so we were surprised when all arrived together. They didn't have our first choice of wine and recommended another and offered a sample. That was a good idea as we disliked the sample so chose another one. We had a very nice young lady serve us who was new as we saw another waitress teach her how to open a bottle of wine at another couples table..hardly the place to do staff training? The place started to fill up as we were leaving so the ambience increased. One thing I would mention is that a lot of the restaurants in the area are blocked from evening sun because of their positioning in a type of square surrounded by very tall buildings, so this may be important if you want to sit in the sun.“

“The place is nice, great for a drink, beautiful view and good music.
Being Portuguese, I expected better in terms of cuisine.
It looks more like fast food, although the menu is promising.
To improve.

Kid-friendliness: An outdoor terrace, to supervise the children all the same.“
