Have to book table ahead, because it's the only restaurant in the town. The food was good but it took awhile for the food to come.

This is a great Portuguese Restaurant, in such a lovely Portuguese Town. The food was so tasty and big portions. Friendly service, spoke a little English. Such good valve. Locals are friendly. It's worth a stop if your passing by. Then also have a great camp site in town, with a beautiful swimming pool and gardens. We cycled in from our camp site about 25 mins away.

What an excellent stop from Algarve to Lisbon. It is a bit out of the way but it is worth it, you can walk around the town to help your digestion after such a feast, you won’t want to stop, it was 4 plates and all 4 were delicious, the desserts were phenomenal, even the simple lettuce, tomatoes and onions salad was so tasty! We were all so glad we stopped to eat here. When we entered we were a bit taken a back because you can’t see the restaurant, enter all the way to the right and you’ll see the dining area. Our waitress spoke English and Spanish and was very helpful. Don’t forget to have a Galão (milk and coffee) it was great too!

This was an unplanned stop driving up from Luz to Lisbon. You cannot beat the authenticity of this restaurant in a very small Portuguese town off the beaten path. Food was excellent, great value, nice atmosphere - and the staff was very friendly. It added a lot to our overall experience of visiting Portugal. Highly recommended!

Fantastic surprise. Found it on google maps looking for lunch on the way home. Small adorable town with a great place to eat. The dishes were good portions simple Alentejo food. Extremely tasty food, kids got grilled chicken breast’s we had the black pig mixed grill. Everything was good. This is a large restaurant in the back of a small cafe. Dont let the front fool you.
