Wandering around old Aveiro I found O Batel in a narrow alley and decided to try. It was wonderful. First and foremost the waitress (Eline, if not mistaken). She didn't push for anything and gave me her honest opinion on the food and the portions. I decided by the "petingas em escabeche" and as a main course on the "açorda de gambas" (shrimp with shredded bread). For the record, I'm originally Portuguese and just love that kind of food. I just can say it was wonderful. One of the best I ever tried. I trully recommend O Batel.

Hubs had hearty veggie soup and bacalao which he raved about; I enjoyed shrimp(s) in garlic sauce and tomato corn salad along with a glass of local vino. we ended our meals with warm espressos.Very well priced and welcoming experience.

We had the dourado and the linguado. Both were cooked nicely and served with a nice side dish of steamed veggies (collards, cabbage and carrots - quite tasty) and potatoes. Of course, you have to drink wine in Portugal, so we also had a very good white wine from the Douro region. We finished with some really delicious desserts ( chocolate mousse pie and a caramel creme torte - layers of wafer-thin cake with a caramel cream filling) and coffee. It was all very good, and the price was appropriate for the quality of the food, drink, and service. I would have given this place 5 stars if it had been the first place I had dined at in Aveiro, but the night before we had better food for substantially less.

Thankfully they were able to sit me at a table on their patio which was just as beautiful as inside. While it's not explicitly said that you should dress up but you could get away with a dressy casual look here. They are well known for their fresh seafood and here, honestly one of the perks of being located near the Mediterranean coast. But seafood isn't their only strength here at Armazém do Peixe, they also specialize in different cuts of steak which I had to indulge in. This restaurant is a bit pricier than most places but again it's a bit more on the upscale side in terms of ambiance, food quality, and service. I think I recall paying about 30 euros for my plate. The steak is wonderfully tender and comes freshly cut potatoes or what we call chips and a side of vegetables which to my knowledge I hadn't tasted vegetables like these anywhere back home. If you were looking to take a date or treat yourself to a nice dinner then I would tell you look no further and come by here for a great meal and great vibes all around!

Note: Be aware that some shops and restaurants will close mid afternoon and open back up in the evening (this one closes at 3:30p and opens back up at: 6:30p) because they stay open late most nights! The staff are bi-lingual in many languages which makes for a nice diverse group of diners! The restaurant isn't large and fills up quickly..always a good sign of a local place you want to visit! The food was AMAZING! We had a meat/cheese plate; fried Octopus patties; grilled prawns in garlic sauce; Cod Croquettes and some sausage is a flaky type of pastry! We ordered Sangria as well! The Sangria..White and Rose was not too sweet..but deceivingly delicious..so we had a few glasses and were a lil tipsy throughout the meal! The bill was more than reasonable for all that we had that night! I loved how everyone was friendly in the restaurant and gave us other cool places to visit while in Porto! If you happen to be in the area..do yourself a favor and stop by for some authentic Portuguese Tapas!
