European Restaurants near Sortelha, PT

“The food is very well prepared, by hands that know what they are doing, even the salad is excellent. In a place like Sortelha I never thought I would eat one of the best octopus rice, well seasoned and perfectly cooked rice.
The bean rice very well done.
The decor is almost taken from a Harry Potter film.“

“Good food, homemade and with a unique flavor
Very beautiful and welcoming space with a decoration with several pieces that you don't usually see everywhere
Friendly service in a family atmosphere
I recommend it to anyone who passes by“

“Good value for money, lots of people and two waitresses who do the work of 4... without complaining and keeping a smile. Daily menu wine, dessert and coffee included for €13.50. We understand why there are so many people. To be served without waiting for a table to become available, it is better to arrive around 1:30 p.m.“

“Really good restaurant with homemade food, a mix of Italian food with local Portuguese products. Service was nice and efficient despite being pretty busy at Sunday lunch. Both pasta and pizza were really tasty

Parking: Almost in front of the door there is a free parking“

“At lunch time (13.40) the restaurant was almost completely packed on a Tuesday. The suggestion of the day was ‘feijocas’ (big white beans with meat). My wife loved it. I ate a tasty ‘bitoque de vitela’ with - what I guess - was a mustard sauce.“

“With a fabulous setting, it's worth visiting and tasting its dishes, my favorites being the cod, octopus and goat and of course the lamb stew which always leaves me wanting to return, even now even if it's not for lunch or dinner, they have the best terrace in Belmonte without a shadow of a doubt,“

“The food was very good but a little cold and the board it came on was narrow and several pieces fell onto the table.I also think that instead of being individual, the table should be covered with a tablecloth.The cutlery should already be on the table and not wrapped in a napkin.“

“We feel guilty.
We arrived to our reservation towards the end of an event in the gourmet hall of the restaurant. We were asked to please wait as the event was finishing and the guests were slow to leave. As we were waiting, our reservation time came and went. While waiting we were served wine, cheese and cured ham, free of charge. We were also served a fried appetiser, again free of charge. 20 minutes past our reservation time, we were invited into the gourmet hall. The event was over, but it was obvious the hall was not cleaned up yet. There, in a corner, a table for two was arranged for us.

During this, the wait staff was polite and apologizing for the delay and the circumstances. It was really no problem for us, the appetisers we were served while waiting was lovely, and them being free of charge was a nice surprise.

The food was very well presented and balanced. We had the classical gourmet menu. It consisted of a spread of cheese with fig jam, charcuterie, butters (mushroom and lemon variant) and olive oil. It was followed by mushroom soup, which was rich in flavors and not too heavy. The cod was salty and accompanied by a Portuguese chickpea puree and avocado salad, a lovely combination. The meat had a nice crust, a delicious sauce and vegetables with an acidic tang to them. Finishing up was "the chef's creation". It was a chocolate mousse with vanilla ice cream and a popping suprise on top. Rich in flavors, not too heavy, and perfectly sweet.

When it was time for the bill, we actually felt guilty. We felt the meal and the experience was worth far more than we paid. The wait staff frequently checked up on us, the chef came out twice to speak with us, and the atmosphere, with only my partner and I in the whole hall, made the whole visit an experience we won't forget.

Obrigado.“

“I don't know what they're going to charge me because I'm waiting for the coffee. So my opinion could not be more objective as far as quality is concerned. Environment of 10: healthy and hard-working people. Meal of 10: very delicious grilled meats. Sparkling white wine: I repeated a carafe. Delicious. The girl who served is lovely. Helpful and doing everything possible to explain the different dishes to me despite being from Galicia and half understanding. He was wearing a t-shirt with the legend “staff.” With people like this Portugal never disappoints. If you visit the historic villages of Portugal, do your best to eat here.“

“Despite the first sensation of an area with little atmosphere, the quality of the homemade food is surprising, a welcome with an excellent homemade broth and a small plate of olives. Food of good quality, simple and traditional but with a touch of modernity.The place is cozy without frills but with taste and cleanliness.Certainly recommended.“

“In addition to this incredible atmosphere with ambient music and sophisticated style, we had excellent service!! The food was perfect, very well served, and everything was very appetizing and tasty.
Excellent in everything especially wine ?
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ First time in Belmonte and we had a fantastic first impression, thank you!! ?“
