This is in the tourist area of Cascais, but it was recommended to me by the hotel. It is located…read moreright behind the police station. They are closed on Wednesday. This is the only restaurant in Portugal that asked for a tip. Afterwards I realized they ripped me off because VAT was included in my meal price. Don't fall for the tip is not included, it might be because I am American. My server was on the grumpy side and never once smiled, but I think that is his personality, he smiled for no one. Food: I ordered the pasta with chile, calamari, and shrimp. It was a unique pasta with garlic and tiny amounts of ginger, that played very well and there was like 2 chile rings and then calamari and shrimp. The pasta was cooked perfectly and right amount of sauce that just played well together. The calamari was cooked to perfection as was the shrimp but a few were not cleaned properly but everything tasted good. The chile did have a tiny bite so somebody might think this is spicy but was not for me, finally something with flavor. I did not eat all the pasta because then I ordered the octopus. The octopus was not cleaned properly but the texture was spot on and the taste was great, I added some of my own hot sauce on the side to give it some kick. Odd to have a boiled egg with the octopus, good taste but the green ring indicates the egg was overcooked. Everything was temperature hot and served fairly quickly. WiFi available. I should have just ordered the pasta because that was fantastic! The octopus was okay but took some work to clean. The pasta gives this place a 5. Service and tip with VAT already included would drop to 2. The octopus is 3 stars. But the pasta was the best meal thus far in Portugal.

Very nice restaurant recommended by our tour guide so I feel it may be a bit touristy. The food is…read moregood but a little pricy. Service was good but it was the only restaurant I was asked if I want to leave an additional tip, hence place for tourist. There's no need to leave a tip in Europe. Tip is already built into the price. Food was good and service was good as well.

I was dining solo, and while that's never ideal for tapas (I can only order so many dishes for just me!) it's still very friendly for solo diners and I had two dishes (summer octopus and goat cheese salad, both to die for) and dessert (also a must here!). I really came for the cocktails, and those exceeded my expectations. So much so that I couldn't help but order three! If you're in Cascais even for one night, make a reservation here. If they don't have your ideal time online, give them a call. I was initially only able to book a 9:30 pm reservation and when I called, they were willing to change this to whatever time I wanted.

Sooo I was so happy to find Restaurante Mar Do Inferno! It had gorgeous views of the Atlantic Ocean and the best seafood ! We made our reservation online before leaving California. It was easy and had an English and Portuguese option. We arrived and once we got there we were greeted warmly and seated quickly . There were all these fresh seafood options that you could pick from in live tanks ! Service was top tier !! Our waiter was funny and very entertaining! He warmed up even more as the evening progressed! We had the best view of the sea and ambiance was lovely !

Great wine selection especially European wines and cocktails too !! Hubby loved it and we definitely will come back next time we are in Portugal!!

Our group of five had lunch at this restaurant on 25 January…read more Four members of the group ordered raw oysters, and ALL four became ill afterwards with high fever, vomiting and severe abdominal cramps. The fifth person, who did not eat oysters, remained completely fine. We informed the restaurant promptly and submitted a complaint through the official Portuguese Livro de Reclamações. While the restaurant initially engaged, they denied any connection, requested medical documentation, and ultimately just stopped responding altogether... The whole experience resulted in our entire household being affected all at the same time, causing significant distress and two full days of missed work and school. Our elderly family friend got quite sick, used to be a regular customer there, he didn't even get an apology. We made repeated attempts to resolve the situation amicably and provided supporting documentation of the impact, but no resolution was ever offered (our total bill was approximately €380). Extremely disappointing, recommend to AVOID.
