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.

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.

While in Sintra, we asked our guide for a restaurant frequented by locals. He pulled into…read moreRestaurante O Crôa, a restaurant located overlooking the river. It was hot and very sunny. We were seated at a table where the umbrella didn't do a very good job of shading us. We said something to our server who said she couldn't do anything about it. We moved an umbrella from the unoccupied table next to us, but we couldn't maneuver it well. I only mention this since they wouldn't move us and there were plenty of open, shadier tables. Their selection of fresh fish was very good, but prices were a bit higher than we expected. We received the traditional hard cheese, bread, and olives as an appetizer (which you pay for in Portugal). Then, my wife ordered vegetable soup, and I tried the shrimp rice. The rice had plenty of smaller shrimp in it. The rice was very soupy and didn't have much flavor. The shrimps were good. And I was told the vegetable soup was also a bit bland but did taste good. Although we were both full, we ordered their chocolate mousse cake for desert. It's served with strawberry ice cream and was the highlight of our meal. In retrospect, I should have ordered the fresh cod. If you do want to try it, the views are magnificent and are not to be missed.

The waitress was super nice and the place welts cool-with an amazing view of the beach. We started with a complimentary Muscato (a sweet wine and then I ordered a Super Bock beer and Wifey had a glass of their house green wine. For our main meals Wifey went for the Beef Tenderloin with a fried egg and fries-the fried egg with beef is very common here in Portugal and the French fries are served everywhere. I chose the black pork skewer (also came with fries) and can't possibly explain how good it was. The black pork (it's not black, but comes from black pigs) was so tender and flavorful that I practically licked the plate.
