Portuguese Restaurants in Vila Real, PT

“An absolute ‘must go’ if you’re around Vila Real. The octopus was incredibly tender, the kid goat with alheira was gorgeous and the grilled mushrooms could have only been a product of witchcraft. The veal carpaccio was a star and the service impeccable.“

“Zeer lekkere lokale gerechten met liefde bereid. Old skool, zonder kaart, keuze uit een viertal gerechten. De lekkere wijn staat uitgestald, je kan er eentje kiezen. Er wordt enkel portugees gesproken, maar Gina deed haar best om te communiceren en alles liep vlekkeloos! Aan te raden als je logeert in de casa agricola.“

“We had a great time with my friends in this restaurant facing the entrance to the Palais de Madeus, the welcome is very warm and friendly, the menu is made up of quality regional products and the dishes are excellent just like their Porto Blanx who is a marvel…. I recommend“

“The best grilled chicken I ever ate in my life!! with its accompanying rice, salad and potatoes.
Very good attention and service!!
The lower part was all for our group of 20.
Without a doubt a place to return to many times.
I don't have photos because I dedicate myself to eating and drinking“

“(Translated by Google) Very good. Some “eat and cry for more” Francesinha…. Home fries and super friendly staff. Coming back…?(Original)Muito bom. Umas Francesinhaa de “ comer e chorar por mais”…. Batatas fritas caseiras e funcionários super simpáticos. A voltar…?“

“I do recommend it.We were a party of 7 and 2 babbies. We ordered the mixed platter (several different cuts) and we were delighted with it.Right next to the exterior area there's a kids playground..which is quite handy to keep them busy :)If there is something to be corrected...please prohibit people from smoking on the outside area. Nothing worst than having a great mral interrupted by cigarette smoke. (Thats the explanation for the 4stars on athmosphere)“

“Well prepared, typically Portuguese regional cuisine. Good wine list.
Well located space with an extraordinary view over the Douro
Friendly and efficient service.
Very popular on weekends, which leads to the exhaustion of several options on the menu, which are not very extensive,

Parking: Free own parking and plenty of space nearby

Kid-friendliness: Very spacious both inside and outside.“

“Very traditional food with a quaint ambiance. The service could have been friendlier, but given the age of the waiter, let's leave that as laziness. Well-stocked meal with side dishes and succulent meat and fish. We'll come back to that. ?“

“Excellent food. Very pleasant atmosphere. But at busy times the waiting time is long and the service is poor. I noticed people who had waited so long at the table and left. Therefore it is a point to improve. Of course I won't stop coming here. It's worth trying.“

“I'm suspicious of making this review... because this is where I had my cup of water!I love the typical decor, the table and kitchen service is great.Nothing to point out, simply enjoy the dishes: and the steak is enough to eat and cry for more!!! ?“

“Recommended by a resident of Vila Real, we walked through the door of this restaurant and did not regret it.
Friendly welcome upon our arrival.
We were seated nicely and despite the language difference the explanations were very clear and given with patience. Between English, French and hand language ?, they explained to us that the €9 menu included starter, main course, coffee and drink. What more could you ask for: a small dessert for €3. About ten pastries and ice creams await us. So we ate for €24 for two in a very nice atmosphere.
The starter remains the same, soup then your choice of fish or meat served today with fresh vegetables (cabbage and carrots) and baked potatoes.
A map is also offered.
We did not regret our choice.
I think it is best to book because the room fills up quickly.
Bon appetit to those who pass through the door.“

“Family restaurant, where dishes are made with the main ingredient, love!
The food was very well prepared and tasty.
The service initially raised an alert but then everything went exceptionally well.
The pleasant space and the bathrooms are clean and smell good, this for me is an indication that they take care of cleanliness.
I will definitely be back.“

“If you find it, don't hesitate to push the door, it doesn't look like it's open, but the room is at the back. And, on the kitchen side, it's simple, homemade, with local products, and brilliantly good. The advice... a pitcher of white wine, slightly sparkling, it is excellent. And then the price! 25€ for: 2 beers, 1 pitcher of white wine, 2 extra dishes, salads/tomatoes for 2 (delicious), 2 desserts, we even wondered if there was a mistake!.Remember, try in any case we recommend.“

“(Translated by Google) An excellent reception, the super attentive girl, simple but very tasty food, we loved everything. Excellent stop for those who make the famous N2.(Original)Uma excelente recepção, a menina super atenciosa, comida simples mas muito saborosa, adoramos tudo. Excelente paragem para quem faz a famosa N2.“

“We found this place by chance looking for a place to eat and late at night. Great food and super friendly staff. We ordered Bacalhau Podre for 2 and it was very good and a portion of meat which was also very good. Noted in case we ever return. Perfect price for how well we have eaten and the quantities.“

“Good restaurant in Vila Real.I went to try the famous Bacalhau à Maranus and it was really good.Service and staff concerned with good service, despite the restaurant being full with all tables occupied.It's worth passing through Vila Real and stopping to eat at this restaurant, the meat is also promising, but wait for another opportunity.“

“Fair prices and friendly service/atmosphere, the quantity of potatoes that accompany the francesinha is not humble, but the prices are. Including a digestive at the end on the house. For some, it is the best place to eat francesinha in Vila Real.“

“After making a mistake and making a reservation for a restaurant with the same name in Lisbon, we had this incredible surprise. A restaurant with such a family atmosphere that it feels like you're dining at your aunt or uncle's or grandparents' house. The food is homemade and very well prepared in very generous portions. The living room has a real and quite large fireplace that heats practically the entire space and makes it even more welcoming. All the staff, without exception, are incredibly friendly and attentive to the needs of each table. We ate the oxtail, which we highly recommend due to the wonderful flavor of the sauce. The alheira as a starter was probably the best alheira we've ever tasted! For dessert, I highlight the chocolate mousse, which is homemade and with the right consistency.Finally, one more surprise… the bill! €63 for 4 people with starters, drinks (including house wine), main course and dessert. It's very rare to find a restaurant of this quality, at this price and with such incredible staff that you don't even want to leave.Many congratulations to the team and thank you for giving us a spectacular night!“

“Typical restaurant in the Vila Real area that presents some typical northern dishes such as cod tripe or pataniscas with bean rice which was what we ordered, accompanied by a house made red wine and apple pie for dessert. The coffee is poor and so it's worth looking for another place and getting to know the area...“

“Highly recommended neighborhood bar and restaurant for lunch, breakfast or coffee. The staff was very nice and the owner was very nice and attentive. Excellent home-cooked food and one of the best breakfasts in Lisbon. One hundred percent recommended“

“Homemade food, well served, good service. Easy access, with parking nearby. They also serve take away

Parking: Well located, in the city center, easy access both on foot and by car.

Kid-friendliness: Yes

Wheelchair accessibility: Yes“

“(Translated by Google) I tried the transmontana steak and it was 5 stars, I repeat, it was divine, the meat was juicy and very well served, not only will I repeat it more often but I recommend it.(Original)Experimentei a posta à transmontana e estava 5 estrelas, repito, estava divinal, a carne suculenta e muito bem servida , não só voltarei a repetir mais vezes como recomendo.“

“Great place to have an authentic meal at a tremendous price. Be forewarned though, go hungry and don’t plan on eating anything other than a snack for supper. It cost 22 euros and it was well worth every cent. It’s a set menu so just enjoy yourself and watch the dishes arrive. Wine and port are included. So is dessert and coffee.“

“We didn't have a reservation but within 10 minutes we got a table. Much sympathy from the entire team. From the starters to the dessert (crest with a scoop of tangerine ice cream - perfect combination) everything was very good. Speed ​​of service. In the end the bill was also very pleasant (we didn't drink wine which may have helped)! As everything was great, I just remembered to take a photo of the soup.“

“Best brazilian feijoada I've eaten so far in Lisbon! Delicious food, generous serving, and a menu which everything you may crave for, from dadinhos de tapioca to brigadeiro de colher. Staff is really nice and helpfull. I'll be coming back for sure!“

“Great francesinha, best one I had in Portugal so far. Delicious sauce, and they come to your table for refills. The place is very busy, reserve in advance or be prepared to wait a bit before being seated. Friendly service, prices are a bit more expensive that outside vila real but still cheap.“

“Easy access
On-site parking
I was well looked after, the food was great
I opted for the rotation option
The rice was a little hard.
Other than that the food was great I ordered a bottle of Matheus rose!“

“What can you say about this small corner that even in the center of the city manages to bring the calm of a village. The meeting point for people who like to talk and eat well, people from A Nossa Terra!!The owners are friendliness personified, always with a smile and masters of hospitality.We stop by here at least once a week, here the food tastes like grandma's house, it tastes like summer vacations in the countryside of adolescence and so many other good things. Try it, you won't regret it!“

“Chicken was well seasoned, but I found it drier than the one from the barbecue where I usually buy it (royal). Very good side dishes, homemade rice, and very tasty homemade fries, which surpassed the quality of other barbecue places in VR. I didn't like the sausage, it was half raw. The chicken itself didn't surpass the quality of the royal. nice space.“

“(Translated by Google) I really like to eat at this restaurant, the food is very good and the servers are adorable ???????????????? Thank you(Original)Gosto muito de comer neste restaurante come se muito bem e os serveurs sao adorables ???????????????? Merci“

“Good cod washed down with a good, ripe and slightly frizzy white wine.Light and fluffy rye bread with a green olive, and for dessert a good cheese accompanied by an excellent pumpkin jam.Fantastic view from the foot of Alvão to the city.The best thing is just the heating, cool in winter...“

“Restaurant in a well-maintained rural house.
Furniture in the room with the particularity that the chairs are of different styles and different eras, for example, at the table where I sat there were four different chairs, I thought it was great.
Lamps made from wooden ox cart wheels.
Good service, but on the day I visited this space there were only two employees serving the tables, with the room plus the "Esplanade, on the porch, there was some delay.
We ate veal for three and there was a portion and a half leftovers.
Dessert, pudding, which was amazing.
In terms of the meal, everything was great.
I advise.“

I recommend this establishment.(Original)Très bon accueil par les propriétairesChoix dans les grillades (poissons, viandes...).La préparation et la cuisson des ingrédients sont fait sur place et au moment de la commande. Tarifs des menus raisonnable. Je vous recommande cet établissement.“

“Probably one of the best restaurants in the area. They have everything: friendliness, speed, good dishes and hygiene. There are many dishes to choose from and they are all well served. The most popular will certainly be the post and the francesinha. Top ??“

“An excellent place to eat, super clean and friendly, the workers are very attentive and friendly, and the food was great, the burger very good and the francesinha very good too, we will definitely go again

Parking: You have a private parking lot on the main street that is located a few meters from the cafe, it is in front of the police and next to the hospital, where you return in front of the police“

“A very beautiful, modern and very clean space. The staff is very friendly, attentive and always attentive to customers. We had a veal steak francesinha dinner, the steaks were of very good quality and were at the right point, with high quality ingredients.
The sauce didn't convince me.“

“Delicious Bolinhos de bacalhau that I had first time in my life and place looks like locals love it. I was in shovk seeing min ed meat separately from rice...not chilli con carne or spaghetti bolognese...but it was already eaten and not available to order. There is no decoration, but very nice customer service, good size of wine jar and prices not high. Having rice in some sauce cabbage and pieces of meat was the first meal in Portugal salty as Polish people love...salt and pepper on the tables are never available for customers in Portuguese bistros, only olives and that is that I miss a lot“

Typical cuisine, inexpensive and very good. (For two people €25)
Super pleasant waiter, who spoke very little French but who made enormous efforts to chat with us in French. I highly recommend“
