Portuguese Restaurants near Semide, PT

“Anyone looking for a place with some "ceremony" will have to choose another restaurant, but if you want homemade food, with good portions, there is a restaurant here that will satisfy you, I'm sure. Any dish is good, highlighting the Portuguese stew, chanfana, grilled cod...“

“Homemade and abundant Portuguese food. One of those restaurants that if you like typical, unpretentious and honest places, you have to save. Located in an alley, it is an old house and adapted as a restaurant. They attended us even though they were about to close and of course, with a smile and wonderful kindness. There were dishes that were already sold out by the hour but we ordered soup, 3 types of grilled fish with their accompaniments and rice with beans and grilled chops that were simply perfect. The half portions are enough for more than one. We didn't get to the desserts but if we return to Coimbra we will definitely repeat. We have left our small works of art there as souvenirs and hope to see them again. ?“

“Service begins at 12:45 p.m.
Very friendly staff, excellent cuisine with very good value for money.

“??: What a wonderful discovery this is.

I went in search of some Coimbra-style migas and ended up enjoying the Açorda that accompanied the fried petinga.
One of the best açordas I've eaten in my life.

All the food was extremely fresh and delicious, even the mixed salad.

I recommend it 100% and will definitely be back.

Not to mention the waiters, the girl who served us first and the man who finished our service. Both of them extremely friendly.

??: What an amazing finding this one

I was looking for a place that served “Migas à moda de Coimbra”, which is a dish made with bread, black eyed peas and cabbage.
I end up delighting on the “Açorda” that was a side dish of the fried “petinga”(small sardine like whitebait)
It was one of the best “Açorda” I’ve eaten in my life.
All food we ordered was fresh and delicious.

I recommend this place 100% and no doubt I’ll be back

Also to mentioned the staff that was so friendly and so nice to us. Always with a smile on their faces“

“Good food with good diversity (no exaggeration, perfect number of dishes) that captures the essence well. Impeccable service, I made a reservation last time and it was the only restaurant in the area that was quick to serve us. I recommend and come back“

“There are 2 national sandwiches in Portugal the Francesinha and Bifana (pulled pork) Sandwich.

Francesinha Sandwich ...ham, steak filet, chorizo, smoked sausage, cheese, toasted bread, sweet red pepper\tomato garlic sauce ?

If you want the best Francesinha in Coimbra then come here. Our guide and BNB host both recommended this place, Café Atenas.
The best Francesinha we've had. Great value and really good expression of a Portuguese classic!“

“Very nice fine dining experience to discover regional flavors from Coimbra. The service was outstanding and we felt very comfortable right from the start. My companion's request for a vegan menu was immediately answered in the affirmative. We both opted for the 7-course menu. Thank you to the whole team for a fantastic evening and keep up the good work ??

Vegetarian options: Vegetarisches als auch Veganes Menü möglich ?“

“This truly was an amazing gastronomical experience. Had been told about this place and it certainly did not disappoint.

I believe the quality of the food is high compared to the prices charged and its certainly enough food. The staff was knowledgeable about the menu, including the wines“

“The food is spectacular. Typical dishes. Very tasty. We ordered cod à Brás and pork à Alentejana and they seemed to me to be of very good quality ingredients and well served and the dessert was delicious. Congratulations to the cook.The service is good. Very nice.The space is cozy with ambient music and no TV (which is worth a lot to me - I'm going to share a meal with people I like, I'm not going to watch TV).The price is super affordable.Perhaps the best restaurant of its kind in Lousã. I recommend.“

“We had dinner at this excellent restaurant where we ate excellent quality grilled fish. The environment is very picturesque and peaceful: the restaurant is located in a central square near the church, it immerses you in the typical Portuguese atmosphere. The staff was very friendly and helpful and the prices were great.“

“One word.... GORGEOUS! The place is splendid, in a very pretty square. Very good food! The setting was splendid... we had dinner with live music and a truly beautiful, friendly, nice environment! I want to come back here and to all of Coimbra! It's magical!“

“I went to this restaurant on a recommendation, and I have to say it was a very pleasant surprise. The first restaurant which was 5 stars in all parameters (food, service and atmosphere). The food is very tasty and well prepared, perfect. The staff is really friendly and the atmosphere is wonderful, very pleasant to eat.
I will definitely be back and I recommend everyone to go there once, it's really phenomenal.“

“Comida Portuguesa muy buena, pedimos un plato de bacalao con espinacas y garbanzos qué me sorprendió, y eso que he comido bastantes platos de bacalao en Portugal. El camarero que nos atendió fue muy simpático y amable. Además, sé me olvidó él móvil y las gafas y, después de habernos marchado, vino en nuestra búsqueda para entregarnoslo, muchas gracias.“

“(Translated by Google) I really liked the Bucho with rice, the Chanfana was very good.Friendliness of the confreres who received us as well as the lady who attended to us.I really liked.(Original)Gostei muito do Bucho com arroz, a Chanfana estava muito boa.Simpatia das confrades que nos receberam bem como da senhora que nos atendeu.Gostei muito.“

“Perfectly roasted suckling pig. Crispy crackling, tender flesh, and no salt needed if you use the basting juices properly.

Service is friendly and polite.

I'd recommend ordering a salad to complement the piglet.“

“We wanted to surprise my parents, and we ended up surprised too.
The chanfana was delicious, the bread was dessert and of course the service.
Congratulations on everything!

“This place was absolutely fantastic from the food, the service, and atmosphere. We had many wonderful appetizers and wine and sangria with our fabulous entrees. Still our bill was under €40 per person. So far in my experience (especially with steak), this restaurant has the best food by flavor, texture, and presentation in Portugal.

Trying to look it up the restaurant to give review lands me on a web page with its photos but with addresses in Coimbra vs South of the city. Is it possible there is more than one? I can't imagine anything in the area mapped having an atmosphere to compete with what I experience Southeast of Coimbra. I will be investigating and hoping they are connected by more than name.“

“We had Agorda for dinner with prawns, a hamburger and for dessert pavlova with red fruits. Everything was delicious, the prawns in particular. They don't have csrta in Spanish, but they are very friendly and help you.
You have to go slowly because they take time to cook the dishes.
Highly recommended, quality food. ??“

“Wonderful atmosphere, with some interesting employees and an out-of-this-world view of the kitchen where the 180cm boss is, tall and broad-shouldered, dark and toned... Wow! It takes your breath away. ? The food, well... the food was good too!Regarding the suggested dish, I would suggest the boss... but they wouldn't go wrong served with a francesinha either, they're wonderful“

“This restaurant is simply exceptional. Each dish is an explosion of flavors, prepared with perfect mastery. The service is impeccable, with an attentive and warm team. The atmosphere is friendly. I highly recommend this restaurant for an unforgettable dining experience. thank you Jo!“

“Excellent food. Fresh ingredients cooked on the grill outside in front of us. We had the tasting menu and got our money's worth. The owner was kind and took good care of us. The location was so romantic, down a cobblestone street. I felt like I was in another world, coming from thee US. It was magical.“

“Luca is one of our favourite place to have lunch. The restaurant is located in a cute and peaceful square near the main high street. The food is always delicious and is a great alternative for those who are looking for something healthy to eat. So far we tried the fresh organic orange juices and smoothies, the hummus, falafel, pastel de bacalhau for snacks. We also tried their grilled salmon with couscous which is one of our favourite dishes along with a nice fresh Praxis whenever we feel a bit naughty. :) The staff members are always friendly, smiley and helpful. We will certainly be back soon. ;)“

“After a heavy rain shower, we went to the restaurant and wanted to have dinner around 6 p.m., but the kitchen wasn't open yet. Nevertheless, we were able to order something to drink and the food came really quickly. We felt very well looked after“

“Good atmosphere, a great chanfana like I haven't had in a long time, a small repair in the dessert (curd and berry pie) it wasn't cold, and the red wine wasn't at the recommended temperature (a little too hot).
Overall very satisfied“

“Incredible!! Tavern with live Fado music, highly recommended. The place is hidden in one of the alleys of Coimbra, it is a very small but cozy restaurant. The food was very good and the service was fast and efficient. The show starts at 9:30 p.m., so they ask you to arrive around 8:30 p.m. if you want to have dinner. They advise you to reserve, since being small, they have few tables and it fills up quickly. We ordered a ham and cheese sandwich and some spaghetti carbonara (highly recommended). Regarding the Fado concert, without words. Everything is wonderful!! The "group" we heard had an incredible live performance, they even interacted with the audience, which made it even more special. Plus, it's pretty affordable. Dinner plus entry to the show cost us €50. Do not hesitate to come here to enjoy authentic Portuguese Fado while enjoying a cheap romantic dinner.“

“(Translated by Google) Very well prepared food! I think I exaggerate the amount ofWhite rice! You have to rationrelation to proteins and always provide vegetables (they are important)(Original)Comida muito bem confecionada! Penso que exagero na quantidade dearroz branco!

“We ended up at Curral by chance, because the restaurant we wanted to visit was closed, but it was a good experience at Talasnal, with very friendly service and well-prepared food. The entire space is very well decorated and welcoming. I just thought it was a little expensive, but the products were of very good quality…“

“Small cute place with a soft romantic vibe.
You may have to wait to get seated but I'd say it's worth it. Truly tasty food, in line with the local and Portuguese tradition but with a modern and innovative twist.
Reasonable prices and friendly/attentive service contribute to the great experience.“

“Excellent restaurant in the village of Penela.
Magnificent views of the village.
Food very well prepared and with excellent flavor, acceptable sweets.
Service a bit unfriendly and confusing.
The sangria was very poorly made but overall a good restaurant for lunch or dinner with friends or family.“

“Dinner in Coimbra at this restaurant in the historic center of the city. We tasted the sausage, typical of these areas, prepared in two different cooking methods. Excellent, especially in the chorizo ​​version. The baked potatoes are also good. Informal service by young - always smiling - waiters. Account adequate for the dishes received. Advised.“

“One of my favorite new places in Coimbra! In addition to the wonderful wine cellar, which in itself was a reason to go there, the aged meat, fried potatoes and mushroom rice are my favorites in the city (so much so, that every time I go there I can't order anything else).“

“A great success from Coimbra too. We ordered a plate for 2 and we had leftovers, I'll leave it there. Huge dish of goat cooked in wine for hours... Buff, very delicious, very much. And the perfect grilled sea bream! Ah! And the spectacular homemade caramel slime!!
A place to repeat for sure!
Ah! And you can pay by card!“

“New experience. We chose daily dishes (lagareiro-style cuttlefish strips and grilled maminha). The daily rate includes soup, dish, drink, dessert of the day or fries and coffee. The quality is excellent and the quantity, considering the price, is also excellent. I recommend.“

“Estive com meu marido no final de semana anterior para experimentarmos a francesinha e a burguesinha e estava tudo extremamente perfeito . Inclusive fomos atendidos pelo adorável Sr Pedro, que foi incrível e nos proporcionou o melhor atendimento que já tivemos aqui em Portugal. Vale a pena conhecer o local, as comidas e o gentil Sr. Pedro .“

“It was the first place I tried famous francesinha and it was delicious ? with beetroot bread it tasted a little like borscht which is my native favorite dish ?service is perfect, we asked one francesinha to share and they made it with two separate eggs ? Also beer was very tasty. The only thing that was a problem, not enough air conditioner, quite hot in the middle of the sunny day“

“Since I arrived, Coimbra has been a place I never stop going to every week. all very good

Kid-friendliness: I've taken children there and they ate very well. The owner as soon as we sat down served papers and colored pencils for the children to have fun. Very pleasant.

Wheelchair accessibility: A small place but with easy access.“

“(Translated by Google) The Portuguese stew is always served on Tuesdays... It's worth the price and the stew. We don't park easily.(Original)O cozido a portuguesa vamos sempre à terça... Vale pelo preço e pelo cozido. Não estacionamos fácil.“

“A Lifesaver in CoimbraExhausted after a long day of shooting, we realized we hadn't even eaten lunch. Asking the hotel receptionist for a recommendation, she enthusiastically declared Arco Bar her "lifesaver."A short walk of 5-10 minutes later, we arrived at Arco Bar. While the exterior appeared intimate, the inside surprised us with a comfortable space accommodating roughly 50 guests. The atmosphere was lively, bathed in the warm glow of numerous ceiling bulbs.Having enjoyed Douro Doc wine for the past three days, we decided to stick with what we knew and ordered another bottle. While we weren't wine experts, the Douro region hadn't disappointed us yet.Our meal began with a delightful spread of olives and bread. Following the receptionist's recommendation, we opted for the grilled black pig, a renowned dish in Coimbra alongside codfish.And let me tell you, the black pig was nothing short of "Delicioso"! This trip, we liberally used the phrase "Out of this World," and the black pig undeniably earned that title.Fries at Arco Bar was equally impressive. Perfectly cooked, it achieved a balance of firm texture without being tough and juicy without being soggy. If I had to describe it in one word, it would be, well, you guessed it – "Out of this World"!While my coworker's shrimp omelet appeared less exciting on the plate, it proved to be light, fresh, and perfect for a pre-bedtime meal.However, the true highlight of the meal was the dessert. While I can't quite recall the specifics, it was possibly a firmer, sweeter version of tiramisu paired with a delightful chocolate mousse. Both were simply divine!The final bill was surprisingly reasonable considering the quality of the food. I left Arco Bar feeling like I could easily dine there every day!“

“Nice little typical Portuguese restaurant. Good service, personal attention, good food and tasty desserts. Recommended

Vegetarian options: There is only 1 vegetarian option

Parking: There are plenty of parking options within a 5-minute walk

Wheelchair accessibility: The restaurant is wheelchair accessible, but I had the impression that the door was a bit narrow“
