14 Best Seafood Restaurants in Viana Do Castelo

“The dishes were very good and abundant...the service was a little stressful...they took our reservation at 2:30 and they wanted us to order immediately, without practically seeing the menu...I understand that they close at 3 but not having taken the reservation at 2 :30“

“We ate great and of all styles. The first day was a spectacular charcuterie board, the second cod (the most delicious we ate in Viana) was something great. It looks like a bar but it has a wonderful cook. The treatment of the waitresses is spectacular. Everything is great. I will repeat without a doubt. 100% recommendable“

“Excellent fish and sea bass soup. However, the price of sea bass is shown by the kilo (€35/kg) without it being weighed in front of us. Conclusion: they charged us €42 for a sea bass for two people, which after all the math is equivalent to 1.2 kg of fish (not emptied), which seems much more than what we ate (any website recommends 300-400 g/person ). It also seems out of season that the restaurant manager, who also serves, is not in uniform like all the (very friendly) employees.“

“This is an excellent address! For a very reasonable price you eat excellent Portuguese dishes (generous portions) and you drink an excellent white wine recommended by the owner who makes the effort to speak French. It's simple, it's good, it's worth remembering!“

“Small restaurant where you eat very well. You have to think about booking. The restaurant itself is rather traditional and has remained in its original style. You don't go there to appreciate the decoration, but for the quality of the dishes, which is excellent. I highly recommend. As a fan of octopus, I advise you to enjoy it in the oven or grilled, it's a real killer. The price-performance ratio is also very good.“

“Located on the banks of the estuary, close to the Santiago da Barra castle, it is a restaurant with a serene atmosphere. The grilled sea bream is visibly fresh and delicious. The monkfish rice with prawns is very creamy. The food is wonderful. The service is quality and welcoming.“

“Visually, the place doesn't look much and the service isn't the fastest, which is why we assumed that the food couldn't be anything special either. BUT: We were pleasantly surprised by the good quality and taste of the burgers.“

“Typical restaurant with very good fresh dishes and homemade desserts. Thanks to the cook for this wonderful meal... Thanks to the boss and the very pleasant waitresses.. good value for money

Kid-friendliness: Very available“

“Very friendly service from the employee Leonel.
The room already appears dated and lacks the feeling of a welcoming place.
Weak seafood, but the fries that accompany it are excellent :).
If I come back????
No
Perserve the employee who is the best the restaurant has.“

“At last notice we got recommended this restaurant and it lived up to my expectations. We started with Portugueses codfish xakes (Pastéis de bacalhao) and some Pato negra. Each choose a main course in my case perfectly cooked octopus, very tender. The almond cake, the chocolate mouse and the pao de lo were all really good. After we finished our coffees the super friendly and helpful waiter insisted on offering a glass of port wine, which we all very much enjoyed.“

“Pay attention to this restaurant in Viana do Castelo. Very good food, very friendly staff and moderate prices in line with the competition. I was told that the management was new and was cleaning up everything that the previous management did wrong. We really liked it. You will experience that you will become customers.“

“Nine kilometers into our Camino trek, we stumbled upon a welcome sight: Areia Cozinha na Praia. Exhausted but optimistic, we bellied up to the table.

The Sopa de Peixe e Camarao, a delectable hearty fish and shrimp stew, warmed my friends from the inside out. I savored the Creme de Ervilhas e Chourixo, a pea and chorizo cream soup, that was equally comforting.

It was the most high-falutin soup/meal and exactly what our weary legs craved. Refueled and spirits high, we were ready to tackle the next leg of our Camino adventure.“
