“Food and service were great! Generous, hearty portions. Mushrooms and prawns were excellent starters. Steak and fish were excellent. Great for big groups. We were 11 and had a cozy set up. We had a couple of vegetarians in the group - menu is not vegetarian friendly but our server made a plan! Fairly good value for money.“

“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“

“We found this place by chance and it was a great success. We ordered the menu of the day which included soup, grilled sea bream, wine and dessert. The waiter told us that he ran out of sea bream but that they offered us baked sea bass and it was wonderful. I will return one day“

“We ordered a francesinha and a burger, they were divine. It's been a long time since we've had a francesinha this good.
Five-star service and extremely friendly person in charge.
When we return to Viana do Castelo we will definitely go there to eat again.“
“It is a place to go slowly and savor each and every one of the ingredients. Family and homemade food. We found it on our way to Portugal and it was a great success. In fact, when we return we repeat... They are very friendly. Tip: go hungry, the portions are large. Ends aviat Sunday!“

“The best cocktails in Viana do castelo. If you have the opportunity come, it's worth it. It is super cozy and the attention is unbeatable. There are also options for drinks and beers. We came for the good music and found a spectacular corner. Thanks for everything!“

“A beautiful restaurant 5 minutes from Viana do Castelo and also close to the Vilanova da Cerveira fair. The rice with lubricant and the cod ao Camelo were exquisite. The perfect attention. Looking forward to returning.

“Magnificent establishment with a spectacular, clean, harmonious terrace, decorated to taste, and with details that only those who appreciate it notice, located in Castelo de Neiva.
Very well sanitized bathroom with top decoration...individual Turkish towels...a treat.
Now let's move on to the service provided by Miguel, who is a polite person with a frank smile who is always helpful.
And finally the icing on the cake...from the starters (rolled sardines/clams à bulhão pato) to the Passion Fruit Sangria to the main course Squid with prawns on the tile...and ending with a biscuit cake with salted caramel... .everything divine...and the Master of this divine food is Joana who, in addition to being a spectacular cook, is also an easy-going, affable person, concerned about everything being well...they are a top team.
We wish you all the best and we will certainly be back because the menu is top notch.

“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“

“2023: The food is impressively good. We have come two days in a row because we liked it a lot.
Very good attention.
We were also traveling with our dog, a French bulldog, and they let us pass with him.
2024: It is our second year repeating, and we will return in two days. The seafood is super good, and the service is a 10. Very good price quality. Our favorite place in this area ❤️“

“I recommend this traditional restaurant where vegetarians are welcome, we were surprised by a well served and complete dish. So the world moves forward and forward, if we return to Ponte de Lima this is our preference. Thank you for making a difference.
Vegetarian options: Dish very well served with rice, French fries, mashed potatoes, cabbage and green beans, black-eyed peas and tomatoes, a complete and tasty dish, I recommend it.“
“This was a fabulous surprise as a vegetarian in Portugal, I would definitely eat here again! They have a vegan chef special each night and I had a vegan bolognese in a puff pastry with a creamy spinach and mushroom sauce. I rarely finish my meal and I didn’t leave a crumb. Sooo good. My husband had a pork dish with a mushroom sauce that he ate every bite as well. Warm homemade bread with garlic butter and a tempura like squash blossom as a ‘treat from the chef’ were lovely. Unfortunately we had no room for dessert because we would have tried the cheesecake or crème brûlée. The service was friendly and attentive and an overall great experience. If they weren’t closed tonight I would be eating there! Don’t miss it!!“

“First time in Viana and first time at the place, very good attention received by the waiter who understood us and served us perfectly.
We ordered lasagna, francesinha (spectacular), garlic bread and mixed salad, and for dessert a cookie cake that I would repeat if it wasn't already full. Highly recommended establishment, we will be back.“

“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.“

“The portions are very large, even asking for half. I ordered bacallao or escondidinho and it was delicious. But I do have to say that the thin part was drier and toasted and I didn't like it, they do it all together and it is drier. But I would repeat.“

“We stopped by on our way to Santiago and I can tell that I have never had such an extraordinary service. The man who was working there was not only a plain waiter, but made an effort to make our stay in restaurant pleasant and joyful - he was a real host. The food was great, portions were big, we took pilgrim's offer for 13.90€ which includes small opener, soup, main meal, desert and coffee. The fact is that this restaurant will remain one of my biggest impressions of Portugal. ❤️“

“We booked an outside table for our 1st night dinner in Pte de Lima with our friends. 8 of us really enjoyed all the food - excellent quality & great service from the guys here. The wine was also very good value & great quality. Just back from the main square - which probably makes it better value..“

“One of the best restaurants in Ponte de Lima. We tried the meat and it is spectacular. We took the typical starters of the area and they had nothing to do with what we had tried in other places, all very superior. The atmosphere and treatment of the staff is close. I found it cheap for the atmosphere, exclusive treatment and quality of food.From the restaurant you can see the horses.we will repeat“

“The food is very good!
For those who like to experience different gastronomic cultures (flavors and seasonings) it is undoubtedly an option in Ponte de Lima.
Coalho cheese, for those who like it, there is one very close to us!
Fried and cooked cassava. I like both although the cooked one is my favorite.
The main dishes were very good.
Mushroom risotto with black pork feathers!
Empty steak with melted cheese and crispy fries.
Romeo and Juliet pudding dessert (with guava paste).
I recommend it to try different flavors and combinations of flavors.
Congratulations“

“Super recommended. Very friendly and traditional place. Unbeatable food, a product that shows quality and they know how to treat it. We ate snails and peppers, which I highly recommend!! Very friendly and fast attention. And a very adequate bathroom, which is appreciated when you come from other less hygienic restaurants.
From 10!“

“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.“

“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

“The restaurant located in the port is quite large and is divided into two parts, one for takeaway food where there were a lot of customers and another part for eating in the restaurant itself.Good service and speed.Good quantities, both in the special salad and in the grill.Quite acceptable quality/price.“

“The service is very agile and attentive... The agility depends on what is ordered. The rice dish with baked octopus ? BEWARE because it is late and as the waiter already warns, it is dry, but it is good. The house bacalhau is very good with the onion and potatoes that accompany it. Don't forget a vinho verde to accompany the bacalhau and everything is ready. For dessert or after dinner, a cream puff. Also order a white Port wine to finish off the meal. If you are close to Christmas they can offer you a mini roscon de reyes.“

“Typical Portuguese restaurant, 5-star food and service. The manager says that the cod is the best in Viana, the chocolate mousse too and the wine doesn't even mention it. I'm not saying against it because we were satisfied with everything. See you any day, Manuel and “

“We went looking for Sarrabulho rice, asked a passerby and he recommended this restaurant to us. We stayed on the terrace and were served by a very friendly and prompt young woman. We ordered ham for starters and sent it back because it was too salty. The cheese we ordered was very good (rabaçal). The rojões and rice from Sarrabulho were good. We ordered a dose for two people and there was a lot left.
Half a dose would have been enough.
Overall, we liked it.“
“We ate very well. 3x grilled chicken with fries, rice and salad and 2x cod with potato chips, onions and padrons.The service was attentive and friendly. We paid about 105 euros with house wine and 2 colas. We thought the price was very good for the quality and it was feasts...“
