One of the best restaurant meals I've had in my life and definitely the best meal my girlfriend and…read moreI had in our two weeks in Portugal. Let me first say that my main dish was only reasonably good. I believe it was hare stew. However, the cold soup gazpacho was the best soup I've had in my life! It was very different from other gazpachos I've had. It was quite fruity. My girlfriend loved it also. Oddly, it was served with sliced of smoked ham and sausage on the side. These were probably the best meat I've had in my life! They were very moist and flavorful. For desert I had a slice of cake with crushed walnuts and a coconut topping. Probably among the top 20 deserts I've had in my life. And it deserves extra acclaim because it was unusual (apparently this type of cake is even quite rare in Portugal, according to our waiter). My girlfriend liked her main dish of pork cheeks in a stew. The wine my girlfriend ordered was quite good. The main dishes were substantial in size and the waiter told us we could ask for more of them if we wanted (maybe this was because we were at the end of lunch -- but I would guess not). Service was good -- the waiter knew English. Prices were quite reasonable. If I recall correctly the bill with my ordering water was around 45 euro. Incredible for the quality of the food. I'd say anyone who is serious about food, lives within 200 miles, and has a way of visiting the restaurant, should do so. It would be worth the trip.

The first crab was too big (I think it was 40 euros. The second crab, about 3/4 kilo was approved. The fish, the same way, they brought more than we thought would eat so we agreed on a smaller amount. The razor clams, had to be a kilo or a half kilo, I forget. The razor clams, cigar style we served having been grilled. They were good,served with dipping butter. The crab came in the shell with a wooden plank and a mallet to break it. The breaking caused a fair amount of splatter and I don't think that I would order the crab again. The fish was excellent, on my top 10 list. Service was excellent. Dinner for 4 around 100 Euros.

Not to say we didn't have alot of good food, but here each dish received high marks. The chanfana is the local special, so would highly recommend you get that. All of the meat was done well...

Our waiter, Raphael, was courteous and helpful with the all Portuguese menu. We ordered the house white wine and a bottle of still water. The wine was very good but very inexpensive. We started with soup, my wife with vegetable and me with seafood. While hers was good, mine was rich and flavorful and excellent (I had others in Portugal but this was the best). Then we had salad and chorizo sausage. Salad was adequate, but the sausage was done to perfection. Then came my wife's entree of pork cheeks with potatoes and a delicious cabbage mix. I had their goat, served in a pot with a luscious gravy that was perfect for dunking your bread in. With it were boiled potatoes and spinach. The spinach was pan seared with oil and garlic. The potatoes went well with the abundant gravy. Topped it off with the home made almond cake with a side of ice cream. All this for 75 euros. We came back to our hotel stuffed and satisfied. The only problem was yelp has the address wrong. I have included in the photos their card with the correct address, about a half block from the old one. By the way, they do take credit cards. Enjoy!
