I decided to get some olives with my beer. I ate half of them before my big beer came! I ordered a whole sea Bream and a couple baskets of bread. The whole fish was spectacular and the veggies were done to perfection! We actually met a couple of women next to us and we say them the next day 40 miles away in the Lisbon Hills! Reasonable price and fantastic service.

They were as expected. Generally, seafood isn't cleaned by default (fish bile is not removed, shrimp is not deveined, etc.) so I had to do some cleaning but they were fresh and good too. Very salty, but you can avoid the skin to avoid the salt. Both mains came with a side. Choices were salad, boiled potatoes, or fries. Tried the salad and fries and got some rice as an additional side. Not too pricey either.

I never got to finish this review from our Portugal trip this past Spring…read more We visited the town of Cascais while in Lisbon. Cascais was highly recommended by the hotel concierge and an expat we met while in line at Pasteis de Belem. We decided to search for restaurants that are off the beaten path and luckily came across Melody. It was cozy and had a small outdoor dining area. The menu was pretty expansive and the portions were generous for the price. Since we've had lots of seafood during our trip so far, I asked our friendly and wonderful server for his recommendations on their beef menu. I opted for Bitoque à Melody. This was a generous portion of steak in mushroom cream sauce which was outstanding. My husband ordered Salmão Grelhado, a grilled salmon filet and baby potatoes served with garlic and garlic pepper in a light olive oil sauce. For dessert, server recommended 2 that are popular, but it didn't stand out as much as the savory items.

Its nice inside, and serves lively locals having a good time. I wanted a lighter vegetarian lunch, so I ordered the bruschetta (vibrant colorful portrayal shaped like a heart!! Yum) and vegetable gratin (hot, cheesy with a diverse medley of veggies. My husband enjoyed his codfish abras-- a local specialty. The waiter brought us bread, olive oil, olives before we could digest the menu, without asking and charged us for it. It was delicious but I do think they should ask if its not complimentary., so I docked a star.

Entreaguas sits slightly outside Cascais' main tourist strip, which gives it the feel of a…read morerestaurant you discover through local recommendations rather than tourist traffic. The setting is beautiful, with ocean views and a dining room that embraces a classic nautical style without feeling overly themed. We started with a crab salad, which was fresh and well balanced. For mains we ordered whole sea bass and giant prawns, both of which highlighted the quality of the seafood. The prawns in particular were enormous--closer to small lobster tails than typical shrimp--and cooked perfectly. The standout dish of the meal was the Cream Seafood Cataplana. Cataplana refers to the traditional sealed copper cooking vessel used to prepare the dish. At Entragus, the seafood version is served in a rich, creamy sauce that coats the shellfish beautifully. The seafood remained tender and sweet while the sauce added a luxurious, velvety texture that brought everything together. Service throughout the meal was excellent--professional, attentive, and polished. With its ocean views, authentic coastal atmosphere, and excellent seafood, Entragus feels like one of those Cascais restaurants that locals quietly point visitors toward when they want them to eat well.

Hifen is so special. I had the absolute pleasure of having dinner here while visiting Cascais, and…read moreit was a highlight. I was dining solo, and while that's never ideal for tapas (I can only order so many dishes for just me!) it's still very friendly for solo diners and I had two dishes (summer octopus and goat cheese salad, both to die for) and dessert (also a must here!). I really came for the cocktails, and those exceeded my expectations. So much so that I couldn't help but order three! If you're in Cascais even for one night, make a reservation here. If they don't have your ideal time online, give them a call. I was initially only able to book a 9:30 pm reservation and when I called, they were willing to change this to whatever time I wanted.

First off, you need to make a reservation. The restaurant is small and very popular. I was able to…read moremake a reservation for the same day though, because luckily Portugal had a World Cup match that night. We sat inside the cantina side. Our server was adorable and bubbly with a great sense of humor. She did get really busy though toward the end of our meal and it was a challenge to flag her down for our check. With that said, she provided exceptional service earlier. This is the kind of place you want to go to with others who love tasting a variety of dishes. I went with my family who is not into that concept, and so I had to choose just one dish that I would not be sharing, as no one else wanted to share theirs either. Some of the dishes were quite small, but mine was not! I ordered the octopus which was cooked to perfection and had a mix of potatoes and greens underneath. Would definitely order this again! It was one of the best octopus dishes I've ever had. The one thing we did share was the croquettes. They were delightful, but kind of expensive as they were 1.70Euros each and were literally one bite, but a very flavorful bite at that. I also had a few glasses of their summer sangria which I rather enjoyed. I would return here when in Cascais again, but maybe with a different group of people so that we can treat it as tapas as it should be instead of individual dishes. There's so much more I want to try from their menu!

Seafood pasta tasted as if it had been cooked in seafood water, but I think that's the style around here. Croquettes were meh. Pasta special of the day (vegetarian) was incredible. Sangria was perfect. Most of the staff were super friendly and helpful. Overall good, but not somewhere I'd fight to get into considering the number of close by restaurants.
