Café Do Castelo - Reservar mesa

This place has all the signatures of a tourist trap with bad food located adjacent to the entrance of a tourist attraction, empty dining room at 1 P.M. on a weekend, and displays of non food related merchandize in the dining room. The truth could be any further. We dropped in for lunch based on recommendation of the guide of a recent tour. Despite our doubt, we decided to trust our guide....and so glad we did. It was one of our best meals in Portugal! We ordered lamb stew, meat pie, stuffed squid, and monk fish. Every dish was delicious. My favorite is the stuffed squid. Nothing fancy...just really fresh squid stuffed with really fresh shrimp. As soon as I bite into the squid, there was an e...

Após ler as críticas sobre o Clara's, decidimos fazer a caminhada até o morro para jantar em uma segunda-feira à noite. Não percebemos o quão pequeno é o lugar, e ela mal conseguiu nos acomodar com a promessa de que sairíamos antes da chegada do pessoal que tinha reserva para as 21:00. Estamos felizes que ela nos acomodou! Ela era uma pessoa muito simpática, passando pelo menu e descrevendo cada um dos pratos. (Acho que basicamente só tem um rapaz trabalhando na cozinha, então o menu não é extenso.) Começamos com o prato de chouriço, que estava maravilhoso. Havia cerca de seis tipos diferentes de embutidos no prato, todos excelentes. Pão rústico foi servido para acompanhar a carne. Meu prato...

Outro lugar incrível que fica na esquina de uma área muito turística da cidade, mas você realmente deve parar aqui, mesmo que pareça um ponto turístico. O proprietário e sua esposa são ótimos. Eles trabalham duro todos os dias e, se tiver sorte, chegue lá à noite antes que as atrações turísticas fechem. É adorável nessa esquina. O ônibus do metrô passa a 0,5m de você. Este lugar é pequeno, com algumas mesas. Tente conseguir a mesa do lado de fora e observe o mundo passar. A comida é espetacular; pedimos o polvo que estava tão macio (e fácil de fazer, segundo ele). O preço galo (John dory) e o polvo estavam tão macios e saborosos. Está claro que os bons ingredientes fazem a diferença. O frang...

I give this a 4.5. Great food, with great service. The place is very small, and the menu is entirely in Portuguese (the server explains all of the menu items for you though . I got to try two pork dishes and the salmon, and the food was rich with great flavours. The sides that came with the mains were average (baked potatoes, garden salad, etc. . The wine we got was great as well, and relatively cheap. For desert, I tried the lemon/lime mousse which was very rich and good, and their homemade nata which was delicious (and also a bit unique I recommend . Overall I definitely recommend this restaurant. I'm not the most educated in Portuguese cuisine, but this felt like a very authentic experien... Reserve uma mesa agora

We chose this restaurant for our anniversary lunch after the visit to Castelo de Sao Jorge. It is kind of built into the old walls of the castle, which gives it a lot of character and charming ambience. We went in for lunch after our visit to the castle. There are exactly 4 tables inside and couple of tables outside. Even though it is listed as a €€€ priced restaurant, the menu was inexpensive and reasonably priced I don't understand why the other reviewers have given such bad reviews, but the owner was really friendly and went out of his way to take care of us. He even game a complimentary glass of milk for the kiddo. We tried the fish (Filete de Pescado) and a puff pastry entrees. They wer...

What a complete d*ck. I came because of reviews on a different site. The menu looked good, but I also needed to check in on some emails for work. The owner went out of his way to insult and be condescending about it being a place to eat and not for wifi, no thanks wifi Nazi (Seinfield reference), keep your food, I 'll go somewhere else where customer service will go a lot further. In all seriousness, this guy walked out to the door to keep insulting. Stay away if possible. I hope this guy learns that customers pay the bills, a simple sorry no would have sufficed. Walked into WineBar do Castelo and the bartender was really helpful, very insightful with his wine recommendations and was generou...

A little hidden gem in the neighborhood. We walked by it few times and there is always a wait. They also take reservation too. Finally got lucky yesterday for our late lunch at 2:30 pm. It was worth the wait. It's just a comfortable space with homemade food. Everything was fresh tasting and tasty; we had cod and stuffed calamari, yum yum ; the portion is also perfect to allow me to fit in dessert

Incredible lunch spot just outside the Castelo do S. Jorge exit. The dishes were surprisingly inventive and tasty, and very inexpensive for the quality. It's literally an 8-table hole in the wall joint, and there is literally someone's grandmother in the kitchen. You might walk right past it if you can even find it, have a very inexpensive vino while you wait for a table, it's worth it. Reserve uma mesa agora

Visitei o restaurante após conhecer o castelo, que fica a cerca de uma quadra de distância. É um pequeno restaurante com 4 a 6 mesas. E, sim, também há itens artesanais à venda no local (que a esposa faz). O marido foi muito gentil ao explicar o menu. A comida estava boa, mas definitivamente foi uma das refeições menos memoráveis que tive em Portugal.
