The food was d e l i c i o u s. We got fish (and next time I would also get the chicken). We also got a steak dish, wine, and dessert. Our total bill for 2 people was $20. I was in shock. But the food itself was also so great - so fresh. If I ever come back to town, I will eat here again!

Definitely recommend.

The food was absolutely delicious, the people were warm and friendly, and Cascais had such a relaxing and beautiful atmosphere. It's a wonderful tourist destination where you can slow down, enjoy the scenery, explore, and simply take in the moment. Cascais left such a beautiful impression on me, and I would definitely go back again when I get the chance. Hopefully, one day soon!

This is gold in a neighborhood where it is almost impossible to park. Bom apetite!!!

Food smelled delicious as the fresh fish is grilled and brought out fresh. Most fishes also come with a side of boiled potatoes lightly salted (see picture of sardines). It's a classic European restaurant on the inside with many small tables inside with a few on the patio. Staff were overall very pleasant with a constant stream of staff members bringing food and checking in. As we were travelers and do not know much Portuguese at all, they still made us feel welcome and had good English language skills.

What I wrote down in my draft when I was here a couple months ago (I'm still catching up) : "now…read more*that* is some good squid" - I'd had exceptionally mediocre squid for lunch the previous day, from a place that was also supposed to be good (it was the opposite). Squid here was delicious, perfectly cooked, perfectly seasoned, and a bunch of it. Great potatoes to go with it, too. I'd eat here every day if I could. The "couvert" was fish pate from a tin, not made in-house, but it's Portugal, so the tinned fish was still great, obviously. The olives with it were just ok, but the bread was great. I was also happy that they did, indeed, understand that we were going to share it, but only wanted a couvert plate serving for one (I hadn't been sure.) I was a little sad my wife really wanted red meat that day, so we couldn't get the seafood sampler platter for 2, but her pork chop was also great, I know because it was also huge, so I ended up eating like a third of it. Also perfectly cooked and seasoned, and it did go great with fries. The fries were also great, too, super freshly made and perfectly crispy, though the one downside, everything else but the fries were ready super quickly, then the fries showed up after we were about halfway done eating the rest of it. Definitely freshly cooked, though! Also unlike the place the previous day that served us exceptionally mediocre squid the previous day, they also sell very affordable wines here. They have a good number of extremely reasonably priced half-bottles of all types, but we didn't need a whole half-bottle of wine, so I just got a glass of the house white, which was, at least as of a couple months ago, only 2.5 euros! Seriously, I'd come here all the time if I could.I wish I had gotten to try everything on the menu.

The game was on when I visited and that seemed to draw a crowd, so it was packed. Seemed to get even busier after 8. Service was friendly and the prices are super reasonable for huge portions. From the menu, it's not exactly clear what the platters come with, but my chicken platter came with salad, fries, and rice, which was perfect. I also ordered couvert (bread, olives, oil) and cheese, plus wine. Everything was delicious. Though I'm fairly sure this is not a piri-piri spot, I asked for pepper (was looking for ground black pepper for my salad) and received piri-piri sauce and was overjoyed. I loved the chicken. The skin was crispy and flavorful but not super oily. I couldn't finish everything. If you need a fast-casual spot or some takeaway (I think they are on Uber Eats, too), this is a great option.
