50 Best Mediterranean Restaurants near Terrugem

“Very good!
Variety, Quality, Price, everything on the rise!
Fantastic service!
Just, perhaps, with a little too much noise, but largely compensated by the service, atmosphere, friendliness, quality and variety. Come try it! You won't regret it!“

“Great restaurant conveniently located in the centre of Sintra. Staff are very attentive and professional. Food is well presented and well cooked with full of flavour. I would recommend both for a relaxed dinner as well as a romantic occasion. To be safe book ahead but when we went in, there were plenty of free tables, albeit it was an early dinner“

“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.“

“The first kebab house in Ericeira, the food is excellent, service is homely and the meat, falafel, salads and sauces are all authentic, clean and well prepared. I have rarely experienced this with a kebab house anywhere and it's rare for me to eat a 'kebab'. However the exception is at Luxembourg where it all comes together and I keep going back. Quality doesn't need to come at a high price. Luxembourg does its job perfectly.“

“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!“

“Sehr tolles Strandrestaurant. Freundliche Bedienung mit großer und leckerer Speisenauswahl. Die Weinkarte ist hervorzuheben. Für ein Strandlokal angenehme Musikbeschallung. Man kann auch vor dem eigentlichen Lokal in angenehmer Atmosphäre an Holzstühlen und -tischen Platz nehmen. Die sanitären Einrichtungen sind sehr gut. Insgesamt empfehlenswert.“

“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.“

“Food with a high quality product, generous dishes and a very good price, spectacular octopus and incredible prawns with coconut sauce, charming and very attentive staff, all accompanied by wonderful views. A must visit to eat well at a good price.“

“EXCELLENT! A warm and family place. Typical and varied dishes but above all very good! The desserts are homemade by the owner and they are delicious! The staff is attentive and gives good advice.
We had a lovely time, we'll come back for sure. Advice, book.“

“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 had a simply stunning lunch, starting with the service which was excellent, the chef's touch of refinement in the presentation of the starters and desserts was divine.
Everything was very good, from the preparation to the perfect combinations of ingredients.
A really top lunch in every aspect.“

“During our two week vacation in Portugal, we enjoyed our by far best dinner at Marea.
The fish was excellent and the service was attentive and friendly.
We came back another two nights and would visit Hugo again anytime. :)
We highly recommend this restaurant!!!“

“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.“

“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.“

“It is the best place to eat and dine in Sintra. Traditional and homemade food. Professional, attentive and close service. The price is affordable and they make you feel at home. Without a doubt if we return to Sintra we will repeat for sure.“

“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.“

“Great food and great service. Food is ready in a short time and you get to enjoy it in a really comfy area. The server that helped us was specially nice and made the experience better during our visit. I ordered the octupus and was impressed by the flavor and texture.

Wheelchair accessibility: Impossible access on wheelchair. It has a small entry with stairs.“

“One of the best restaurants I've ever eaten at! A refined space, thought out in detail. Very elegant and rustic decor! Very friendly, super helpful, high care and professional service!

We ate fillet steaks with mushroom sauce, black linguini with shrimp and octopus in a lagareiro style. Everything is excellent and at very affordable prices given the good quality too!

We also ordered some desserts, but without a doubt the cheesecake is the best ✨

I will be back and I highly recommend it! See you soon!“

“I had the most incredible lunch at Caricato. Greatly situated with views of Serra de Sintra and close to the beach, what makes this restaurant special is the truly remarkable food and wine offerings. The grilled squid was an absolute delight, bursting with flavor. To make it even more special, the staff is warm and helpful which made us feel right at home. The cooks are undeniably talented; every dish is a feast! Caricato is definitely my favourite restaurant in the area.“

“Food was delicious and service was over the top well done. Delicious appetizers. Fresh fish shown to pick out, then prepared with our choice of sides. We were seated next to area where we could watch it being prepared. Warm plates upon serving. Mojitos were better than from Cuba or Miami. Desert of warm chocolate cake paired with a raspberry sorbet. Everything was delicious. I highly recommend!“

“Cute place if you want a quick dessert. The workers are nice and motivated even though it’s late.
I took a waffle, which was pretty good but the ice cream had a lack of flavor…
The chantilly was not good and didn’t taste good at all. The waffle was soft and well cooked.
We took a vanilla milkshake but it was just a cup of milk with a tint of vanilla…
The atmosphere is cute but it’s better to take away for much more pleasure !“

“Great little place. So glad we stopped by after long day of walking in Sintra. Everything on the main square was so busy and we just wanted to be able to get away a little from it. Walked up the stairs a found this gem
Food was delicious. Tuna steak and octopus dinner both grilled to perfection.
If you are in Sintra , stop by.“

“A classic Portuguese bar with homemade food at a very good price, of which there are few left. Feixoada, lizard, golden grelhada... all very very delicious ?. The young waiter was very fast when it came to taking orders, picking up, etc...perhaps a little more calm would improve the experience. Otherwise super recommended.

Kid-friendliness: They accept children and have a children's menu for €8“

“The best place to eat fish for lunch (it only opens at noon). On the day of our visit, we had a gorgeous grilled sea bass. The side dishes are fixed (very generous portions) and the same regardless of the fish you order. We paid 45 Euros for a sea bass for two with beans, potatoes, salad, and half a litre of white wine.

Service is ultra friendly.“

“This restaurant clearly stands out with its decor and concept.
For me one of the best restaurants I've been to so far. The many small dishes invite you to share and everything was outstanding, so much so that we went there again the following day.
Great service, especially when you order the eggplant.

Recommendation goes out“

“Atmosphere: Cozy and familiar. Service: Quick service, everyone is very friendly and attentive.Food: There are many options on the menu such as cod with cream, meats, delicious desserts, homemade farofias that melt in your mouth.Good price / quality, you should book a table.“

“The caipirinhas (normal and red fruits) were very good.
I recommend Prim’s Noble Steak, the cooking that I requested was respected and the sauce was super good.
The grilled octopus was very tender and the spinach was cooked so that even for someone who doesn't like spinach it was still good.

The servers were very nice and smiling.“

“Zo lekker gegeten hier. We hadden een stukje vlees met champignon roomsaus en ham, verrukkelijk. Alle andere dingen op de kaart klonken ook lekker. Voor de rest heeft het binnen wat meer sfeer dan buiten, maar heeft ons niet tegen gehouden om buiten te zitten.“

“After a long day of hiking in the area we were looking for a place to eat dinner and we were lucky when we found this restaurant, the waiters were extremely kind and the food was perfect, each member of the family enjoyed it very tasty and nothing was left on the plates. The dessert was also extremely delicious and everything felt fresh and delicious, we will definitely be back again.
Excellent value for money.

Vegetarian options: A wonderful vegetarian soup.

Kid-friendliness: Very tasty children's dishes.“

“We had a great meal at this place. They have a permanent menu of €17 with a starter and a main, €19 if you add dessert. We ordered sweet potato with avocado and for main the tartare which is incredible and the portion was very generous. The desserts are very vegetal and are very good.“

“This is the second time we have been to this restaurant because it is in a great location in the Colares area. The lamb is undoubtedly one of the stars of the restaurant and was very good but what really surprised me was the Duck with Orange which was simply divine, very well seasoned and accompanied by delicious rice. I highly recommend it, the starters were also very good and the portions are fair for the prices charged.“

“For seafood lovers! Tasty but expensive!
This restaurant doesn't have a menu as such. You choose fresh fish at the counter, it is weighed for you and taken off the grill. Grilled fish is very tasty. Price in kilograms. The service staff is very friendly. The location is wonderful, overlooking Ocean! The language of communication is English. You won't get any compliments from the chef here, you have to pay for every roll. I repeat again: tasty but expensive!“

“I have had the pleasure of dining at Buzio on 3 occasions now. It is without doubt, one of my favorite restaurants in the world. The obvious is the incredibly fresh seafood from the best purveyors in PT. The less obvious is the service. It is as good as what you would find in Michelin-starred restaurants in Paris—professional, invisible and incredibly pleasant. The ambiance is always wonderful, with large families and friends enjoying celebratory meals. The wine list features some incredible local winemakers, whose wines pair very well with the dishes. Even the bread is top notch. Fair warning, it is not inexpensive. Love this place.

Parking: Parking is super easy as the restaurant has its own private lot with an easy rear entry.“

“Chicken Lunch à Guia at Somos um Regalo in Sintra.
For starters came Bread, Olives and a good Chamuça.
Then Chicken Guide with Spicy, French fries, rice and tomato dish with onion, (side dishes charged separately). The chicken is good but in my opinion the spicy sauce uses a little too much oil.
For dessert I ordered the Baba de Camelo which is homemade and tasty.
I accompanied it with 1/2 bottle of House Red Wine.
Meals around €20 per person with dessert and starters.“

“Service of ten, especially from the manager/owner. We ate very good quantity and quality and affordable price. It has many tables and is open all day, so you don't even need to reserve, you go and they find a place for you. Totally recommended.“

“Our experience was great since the moment we asked for a table. The waiters were extremely friendly and since they knew our language (Spanish), they spoke it to make us feel comfortable.

This place is famous for its fresh fish and it didn't disappoint. We got the sea bass and it was GREAT! One of the best I ever had.

I highly recommend to visit this place if you are around Ericeira.

The only negative point is that it is cash-only.“

“Great place right on the beach. We enjoyed a delicious meal, we tried the fig carpaccio salad and the burrata salad as starters followed by the grilled octopus and a prawn and rice dish that was fantastic. Followed by desserts. Really enjoyed the place, the view and the atmosphere.. need to reserve a table“

“Homemade food. Very affordable daily dishes. Soup of the day, dish, dessert and drink approximately 12 euros per person. Restaurant with different decor with antique crockery.

We ordered some broken eggs as a starter.
The dish of the day, soup and cod with cornbread.
For dessert, a salted caramel mousse (you can share it, because it's quite sweet, but super greedy)

Parking: Private parking on site, free of charge.“

“Some of the best food I’ve ever eaten. Me and my friend ate here pretty much every night of our holiday, other than when it was closed. We’ve both eaten at plenty of nice restaurants around the world and this place tops both of our lists. Tomas and Francesco looked after us, they were both great guys who couldn’t do enough for us. Highly recommend the Steak in Champagne, Black Angus Beef, Mussels Bulhão Pato, Cream & Spinach, Prawns, Sautéed potatoes, Carpaccio & the Pata Negra Smoked Ham. We also tried lots of other dishes that were great. Make sure to book in advance as it gets busy. Prices are more than reasonable for the quality of the service and food.“

“Our meal at Ribas wanted me to change our other reservations so we could come back and try more dishes. Each bite was a bite of joy.

And while we could nit pick (fancy restaurants beg for it), we were thoroughly delighted and satisfied. From the best toasted bread we’ve ever had to the scallop and mango salad to the prawn and scallop risotto to the steak, each dish was above the bar in quality and taste.“

“Small restaurant in the village found by chance. Very nice and family run.
Stylishly furnished
The dishes are creative and freshly prepared. My ribs were cooked to perfection and the prices for the food and drinks are outstanding for the quality“

“Wow!! We stopped into this place after a long drive to Cascais. Not knowing what to expect we were pleasantly surprised when we walked in. The Beautiful ambiance and views makes for a beautiful dinning experience. A little on the pricier side but the food and service is on the higher end on the scale. I had the bacalao with potatoes and my husband had the fried filet of sole. Both portions were very good size and the filet of sole came with tomato rice and salad. We also had the vegetable soup which was delicious. Be ware they set your table with a bunch of apps that you didn’t order and even if you just taste it you’ll be charged. Once we got to our table the table was set with olives, bread cheese and some minced rabbit dish, We asked what it was and sent it back because no one in our party ate rabbit. The cheese alone was 23euros so make sure you want it before you start your meal. The view is beautiful and its a wonderful way to have lunch or dinner.“

“Cozy space, very well decorated, very professional staff, I had to wait for a table a little longer than expected, but the employee made a point of apologizing as soon as we sat down, the service made up for the wait, it was quite quick between ordering and When the food arrived, the preparation was wonderful.
It was a great experience to randomly pass by this restaurant.
I recommend“

“Very nice place with good food.
Lovely people, we laughed a lot with the owners, quite surprised that tourists came to their Family horeca business.

If you want to enjoy "the real Portuguese" atmosphere, it is the place to be!

Obrigada a esta família muito simpática

Parking: In front of the restaurant

Wheelchair accessibility: Entrance is large and possible to access with help“

“Great food and at a very good price. The waiter who served us was super attentive, patient and very friendly... It is a place to repeat without a doubt. We ordered chicken, mixed steak and pork, and everything was accompanied by rice and fries. Very abundant dishes. €11.50 per person, except for the chicken which did not reach €10, drinks included.“

“I highly recommend it,Friendly, smiling and efficient service. Great food and excellent price.We had to wait for a seat and as my husband has a disability they offered us priority, which surprised us immensely in a positive way. Thank you very much“

“Incredible service, spectacular pizzas and a very cozy place. I would recommend him a thousand times, the man was super attentive and helpful, I don't think I had had better treatment in my life. You absolutely have to stop to try these exquisite foods.“

“This place was absolutely amazing. Great food at a great price. We have been traveling around Portugal and we have to admit this restaurant brought it to a higher level. We met Alex the owner who was a wonderful host. We highly recommend this restaurant !!!“

“Dined here on the strength of other reviews. Did not disappoint.Ordered the mussels to start and the grilled salmon for main. Tho the mussels were done straight up, tasted bland when a little seasoning or flare could of been added to make them tastier. However the salmon was cooked to perfection. Really tasty crispy skin and the meat was done perfectly.Highly recommend.“

“5 different meals, all excellent, in addition to fast service, it has beautiful views of the palace. They allow you to take tupperware of leftovers home and very good value for money. Highly recommended. On top of that they serve breakfast, lunch, snack and dinner“
