At least they have printed menus now but they definitely try to steer you to the prix fixe pages. We said no thanks and they accepted that but not before bread, olives, and two glasses of port neither of us really wanted. My wife enjoyed her lamb stew; my pork spare ribs with rice and cabbage was OK but fatty. All in all, it was good, not great. Prices were reasonable. Just be polite but firm when they bring you things you don't want.

English a bit off but I appreciate that he is really trying. A lot better than my Portuguese. The fish steak was so so. It had good flavoring but I really wanted a more quality fish. I like that I was able to add a salad. I had a delicious coffee and pineapple soda which the waiter thought it was a sparkling drink as a translation. Somewhat similar but not quite the same. Coffee was very on-point and Porto Wine cake had a homey feel and was satisfyingly tasteful. I declined the bread since there is bread everywhere and I don't want too many carbohydrates. It probably cost extra. I tried to confirm with the waiter but I don't think he understood this nuance. He was also serving so many people with only one other person and this person was naturally better at serving more people at once than the other person but they both seemed very kind. On my way back to the hotel, I noticed a Quinta Da Foz and I wonder if these places are connected. Cais Da Foz did offer wine as an option.

We ate at Papas Zaide on a Sunday, and the owner cooked a meal for three very difficult guests - two vegetarians and someone who was allergic to dairy and eggs. She created a basic stew over rice with pseudo-chicken for us vegetarians and made sure all the appetizers were edible by all - including a pseudo olive loaf, along with delicious bread, olives, oranges, and salad, accompanied by honey and olive oil. For the meat eaters, the traditional meal of fall-off-the-bone pork and potatoes hit the spot. The white and red table wine from small, local Duoro Valley wineries was some of the best we had on the whole tour, topped with a moscato for dessert. Our hostess even made a special dessert with no eggs - a kind of trifle with non-egg custard, fruit, jello, and biscuits that was delicious. Highly recommend for down-to-earth home cooking with a very accommodating hostess.

We were supposed to have a private lunch under an olive tree, but the weather didn't cooperate. That sounded lovely, but the back-up may have been even lovelier. They set up lunch for us in the wine cellar. It was such a beautiful space, the walls were lined with oak barrels and there was some cool art at the far side. The table was set so perfectly with a couple of bottles of wine, a charcuterie board full of different cheeses and meats, and a very tasty fruit salad. They thought of everything, even having a heater under the table. We had the entire cellar to ourselves, just the three of us. After lunch, we did a tasting and tour of the winery with a group. The day couldn't have been more perfect and I had an amazing experience here!

As the nights are starting to get cooler after the sunset (7:30), they had located many heating lamps and positioned cozy blankets on chairs just in case. It was quite pleasant. Food-wise you can order a tasting menu if several courses with optional wine pairings or do what we did and select from the ala-carte menu. We've learned with the big portion sizes here in Portugal to cut back a bit so we ordered two starters (burratta with tomatoes and the scarlet shrimp with rice). The burratta was a standout with creamy sweet cheese nestled in a tomato confit. The shrimp was interesting-it was almost like a mini lobster and the server removed the head at the table for me. We decided to share a main course-the veal tenderloin which was good but not nearly as tender as one might expect. In between there were little small bites from the chef and we ended with a luscious chocolate dessert. The white glove service was a swarm of activity instantly refilling glasses, clearing plates and changing silverware-it was a little much for me as our table was right at the crossroads of the activity. Wine list is huge as you'd expect with everything from wines by the glass for €10-17 to bottles in the hundreds and even thousands of euros. I saw one that was €6 thousand on the list. As is common in this kind of place, prices were steep and our dinner with 2 drinks, 2 glasses of wine, 2 starters, 1 main and 1 dessert was around €150. Bottom line a lovely place with great service and food and high
