Definitely a place to return to!!

GREAT SEAFOOD AND VIEW ======================…read more Our family member booked us a huge table for lunch at the end of July. We had a big group of ten at a long table overlooking one of the most beautiful beaches. Normally a great view and decent cuisine don't go hand and hand, but I was pleasantly surprised. I ordered sole after my family member recommended it. My husband walked out right after we got there because of the smell of seafood. He found another place to eat nearby. If you like seafood with a beautiful view make a reservation. You may need a private driver though because parking is a problem.

The best restaurant…read more We were heading to Sintra for the day and found this restaurant online and are so glad we did. It's the best hidden gem. It's about 10-15 minutes from Sintra, in the small village of Colares. Unlike Sintra, there aren't any tourists and it's truly locals only. We both got the steak and fries and it was the best steak ever. After we got done, the owner came over and chatted with us about the area and the restaurant. She's lovely and very proud of the restaurant. We asked her to pick out a dessert for us and she brought us cookie cake and it was SO good. When we were having lunch, a delivery came with fresh produce, so you know the food is fresh. The restaurant was authentic Portuguese food and worth the trip. If you're going to Sintra, I highly recommend coming here on your way! If I was a local, I'd eat here every meal. The best food and the best people. Truly felt like they welcomed me into their home. Note, it is cash only, so make sure to have cash!

The sparkling sangria was so refreshing, and the meal was quite possibly the best meal my partner and I have had in years! It was that good that we had to consider years of meals in comparison. The service was spendid and all our servers were kind and gave brilliant recommendations, especially the garlic shrimp starter. I would recommend any and everything we had. We somehow managed to eat desert despite eating so much, and it did not disappoint! The chocolate cake was the cherry on top for a perfect meal! It was raining the night we ate, but if you get good weather, the outdoor view is phenomenal! Go here.

We took a day trip to Sintra and stopped into Restaurante Central for lunch with our tour group…read more This restaurant is family owned and is not a tourist spot which i loved. We all got the lunch special, I'm not sure what it's called on their menu. There were three or four different entrees, most of us chose the fish cake item (I don't remember what it's called) that was kind of like a humongous crab cake but with fish instead. Aside from our entrees we got, soup, salad, appetizers a dessert sampler and wine all for 20 euro. It was an amazing experience and such a great price! I think my favorite items were the samosas (possibly the best one i've ever had) and the cookie cake for dessert. The fish cake entree was so good, the fish was light and flaky and the texture of the cake was perfect. I'm so happy that our tour guide brought us to this local spot, these are the kind of experiences that make trips special!
