Delicious food, excellent service. Many locals there. Wine was good (their own house label)

The food here was very tasty! We have a reservation but didn't really need one for our 3 pm lunch. We ordered some duck for an appetizer and the Iberian Pork Filet Mignon and salt-baked sea bass for entrees. The portion for the duck was very small and not worth it in my opinion - it was pretty bland. The two entrees were got were both excellent! The filet mignon also came with some spinach, clams, and polenta, and the sea bass came with vegetables. The flavor and balance of the dishes was fantastic. Would gladly come here again! read more

Wonderful food, service, and ambiance. Don't miss the faux Grau, but there is so much more. It seems that Americans do not know how to cook but they do in Portugal, and particularly here. I think it was duck magret with chocolate infused mashed potato, little nibs of toasted chocolate on the edges. It was amazing. The service is impeccable and there is a warm friendly atmosphere. So, make sure to get to Sintra when in Portugal and definitely check this place out! read more

A lovely dinner for two with attentive service and scrumptious and elegant dishes! We ordered the padron peppers to start, vegetable soup of the day both vegetarian. Then as a vegetarian, I had the mushroom gnocchi-- they were perfect pillows that melt in your mouth. My husband enjoyed his scallops mushroom risotto. We ended with dulce de leche fondant with citrus sorbet-- unique and delectable!! Be sure to make a reservation! Its a bit bigger than other restaurants but busy. Ambiance is elegant. read more

The best in Sintra!! Hopefully going back tomorrow for one last time. Im still dream of an oxtail risotto that took my breath away, but everything that chef Luis Santos do is just magnificent. We went for 2 weeks all over portugal and didnt have anything like it. Is a most, even if you can go to Sintra just to eat in his restaurant. ext with your camera ¡¡Lo mejor de Sintra!! Esperemos volver mañana por última vez. Todavía sueño con un risotto de rabo de toro que me dejó sin aliento, pero todo lo que hace el chef Luis Santos es sencillamente magnífico. Fuimos durante 2 semanas por todo Portugal y no tuvimos nada parecido. Es un máximo, aunque puedes ir a Sintra sólo a comer en su restaurante. read more

We were recommended this restaurant by our driver in Sintra who said it was the best place in the city so we decided to try it for lunch. I had the shrimp and cod risotto while my wife had the sea bass with vegetables. Both were excellent. The service was superb and the waiter had good drink advice. Overall, a great meal! read more

The food and the service was excellent! I highly recommend this restaurant in Sintra!

This place was recommend by Las Tours. We spent the day out so we came in hungry. We didn't book a reso but def recommended doing so. Most of their tables were already reserved so we needed up sitting in the back. Their table set up was fantastic though. They had a wide range of Portuguese food from seafood, to soups and salads, and beef/meat options. Food came out fast, place was clean, and their staff was attentive. I ordered the linguine with clams and shrimp which was delicious. Portion was okay but sort of pricey, (Just a little bit) it was more upscale. But the salmon app was fresh. There's also two bathrooms one in the middle and one in the back, but their single person bathrooms. Overall, we had a great experience here. read more

This was seriously the best service I've had in forever. I wish I got the server's name but he was just so attentive, friendly, helpful, and thoughtful. He truly went above and beyond. Our food and wine were fantastic. I'd come back solely for the wine! Seafood is very fresh. Even the side veggies were done perfectly. Could have a tad more flavor in the dishes, but everything else was perfect. read more

Had Incomum bookmarked to try while we were in Sintra for the day. We dropped in on a Thursday afternoon (1:30pm). Only a 5 minute wait for a table. Service was okay but they don't double check your order. No lunch menu, entrees are 14,00€ to 34,00€. The tasting menu (47,50€ per person) didn't seem worth it. - Incomum vinho verde (3,50€) - light, easy drinking. - Sugestão de peixe do dia (14,00€) - daily fish special was octopus with risotto. Octopus was excellently cooked; meaty yet tender. The risotto was bland. - Vieiras coradas c/ risotto de maracujá (21,00€) - sautéed scallops with passionfruit risotto. The three scallops were tender but not similarly sized. Passionfruit risotto was a first for us. Nicely balanced. Was expecting more of a wow factor at Incomum. read more

We had lunch at Incomum while exploring Sintra and it was one of our top dining experiences. The hospitality and service were impeccable and it was a plus that the staff spoke English. The staff were attentive to our table service and directed us well to find the restroom when needed. + We ordered the Board of Portuguese Cheese with Chutney and toasts which I highly recommend. I wasn't a big fan of sheep cheese prior but this dish changed my mind. The cheese wasn't very pungent and it felt like a mix of brie and goat cheese. The cherry chutney was absolutely delicious and paired well with all the cheeses. + The hubby tried the Iberian Pork Filet Mignon w/ Clams Polenta which we would also highly recommend. The filet mignon was tender and clams fresh. + Lastly I got the linguine al nero w/ shrimp and brown crab. The cream crab sauce that coated the linguine was divine and shrimp cooked to perfect. The only regret was that the dish was so big, I couldn't imagine one person eating it themselves. read more

Got a reservation? If not, get one! We walked up hoping to have dinner for four but were turned down since we didn't have reservations. As we stood outside disappointed and in search of something else a gentleman came out and called us back in. We were so happy especially since we had quite the walk over. We were greeted and seated right away. Our waiter was very sweet and she provided great suggestions which we all followed. I had the linguine with shrimp and brown crab. My plate was rich, creamy, delicious and loaded with shrimp. Hubby was pleased with his steak too. Everyone's food looked amazing and we each cleaned our plates out. Thanks to the gentleman who called us back in. You saved us from having a bad day (we were getting hangry) It just happened to align up for us perfectly. read more

Our meal here was fabulous. The place is right outside the train station and a great way to start off your time in Sintra. My shrimp risotto was sublime and my guy's seabass was perfectly grilled over a bed of basmati rice and pickled vegetables .

Pro-tip: Sit outside if you don't have a reservation. Price: 5* Value: 5* Taste: 5* Ambience: 4* Service: 5*+ (ask for Andy, he was great) A group of four stopped by on our way to Sinatra. Sat outside and had an amazing meal, with great service and a great view. We all had the lunch specials which is a great deal. The lunch special is 15 euros. It includes bread and olive oil, a soup or salad, a main course, a dessert, and a glass of wine or beer or water. Killer deal. The food was amazing. My partner and I shared the sea bass and Iberico pork. They were both delicious. Juicy, tender, well seasoned and they each hit the spot. The salad was fresh and vegetable soup was good. The dessert we ordered the chocolate cake (good) and the almond tart (amazing). The wine was their house red and it was so smooth. I will return. read more

Final stop on the food tour and it was a great one. We were seated in the tasting room and had fabulous service. A great wine, some fantastic sardines and just a calming and relaxing visit. Excellent Portuguese red wine and after croquettas, chorizo, cheese, and the like, I went sideways and chose a plate of sardines in a spicy tomato sauce. Not only were they delicious (and hooray, heads and tails removed before serving) they were served with an interesting vegetable I've never seen before, salicornia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salicornia which I'd love to see more of. Beautifully presented food, great wine, a very comfortable tasting environment. Incomum is five stars and a great finish to my day of exploring Sintra.

Spent the day exploring all the palaces and castles Sintra has to offer while hiking up and down the hills. We wanted to grab something before heading back to Lisbon by train, so we stopped here. We were seated immediately at one of the outdoor tables. It was a perfect weather day, so this was very nice. We ordered some drinks and got the meat and cheese platter. Eat of the meats and cheeses were local and all were really good! The toasts they provide along with the board were delicious as well! We really enjoyed the hour or so we sat in the Portuguese sun and took in a bit of the European lifestyle we were looking for. Our waiter was attentive when we needed something, but otherwise just let us relax. For dessert, we split the tiramisu. It was made with port poached pears along with the usual ingredients and it was delicious! Highly recommend. read more

Really nice spot in Sintra. Loved the food. Service was excellent. Very reasonable and delicious selection of wines. A very popular spot for locals and out of towners. If visiting Sintra again, Incomum would be at the top of my list to visit again. read more

Incomum was great! We ate here after a long day of exploring Sintra and were glad we did. It's closer to the train station bus stop but easily walkable from the historic center if you are swinging by for lunch and have more things to see. Unfortunately, we didn't know that and got there late in the day when the tasting menu was no longer available but we still greatly enjoyed our experience. We started with the codfish ceviche, which was delicious. The cod was very tasty and just salty enough to pair well with the bread, blistered peppers, and the tomatoes. I had the octopus with spinach and sweet potato, which sounded a bit like an odd combination to me, but it was delicious! The octopus was perfectly cooked and had a great meaty flavor that paired will with the spinach and sweet potato. Definitely get this if you like octopus! I would definitely come back if I ever return! read more

Great wait staff. Very professional. Nice peaceful atmosphere. We had a great meal here. I'd say the best we had in Portugal. We started with the Azietão cheese with tomato chutney and toast. It was amazing. I don't know how they make the tomato chutney, but it was so good. Combine it with the Azietão cheese and it was unbelievable. I had the Lamb chips. My partner had the Shrimp green curry with exotic risotto. Both were delicious. My plate was filled with chops! We liked it so much, we talked about taking the train back out to Sintra just to eat here again. Highly pleased with this restaurant and would definitely recommend. read more

We were recommended this place in Sintra and had a late lunch here. We didn't have a reservation but they were able to fit us in which was nice. This place is much larger than it looks from the street so do try and go in. The bread and olives were fantastic. I ate the Octopus which was cooked really nicely and a generous portion, but really what hit it out of the park oddly enough was the sweet potato that accompanied it. It was caramelized to perfection, I was so happy to just sit and eat what is supposed to be a side. We enjoyed the lobster soup, it was smooth and rich at the same time. My husband got the beef and potato gratin, both were done well and it was a nice meal to end a day of touring around! Service was fine, but wouldn't say it was memorable. read more

I came to this place to have a nice meal with my boyfriend, the menu looks nice but they are very irresponsible with how they work. We ordered gazpacho and pork fillet. I am ALLERGIC to CORIANDER, in the menu it was not written but as I always do I asked the waiter to be sure. He confirmed for both meals. The soup came and it had coriander, I started having allergic reactions, he said he is very sorry, I took his apologies thinking it is an honest mistake. He went to the kitchen to be sure the other meal doesn't have coriander. After a 30 min break I started eating the pork fillet came with polente. And the polente - was FULL OF CORIANDER!!. Never seen this much of disrespect. If my allergy was more serious I might have died. They really ruined my day, I hope you won't hurt any other person's health. read more

Incomum by Luis Santos was my favorite meal during my trip to Portugal. We're talking not only in Sintra, but over a one and a half week span in five cities including Lisbon and Porto. We stopped by for dinner after visiting a bunch of the palaces in Sintra. The restaurant was recommended to us by a friend. Funny enough, we had some trouble locating the restaurant so I stopped by an ice cream shop for direction. The chef, Luis Santos, was at the ice cream shop!! You can't make this stuff up! The interior was fully booked on a Friday evening but we were seated promptly on the patio. It was a bit chilly out and the staff was gracious enough to offer us blankets. What a nice touch! The service was actually great throughout and the chef stopped by after his ice cream lol to thank us for coming. Crab bisque (4/5): a delicious soup similar to lobster bisque. The flavor was there, just not a lot of seafood. Pork tenderloin (5/5): now this was the star of the evening. If I could give them more than five stars, I would. This may have been the best pork I've ever had in my life. It was so tender, flavorful, and delicious. My dining companions all ordered the same dish and they were in agreement. Luis Santos is a phenomenal chef and I was happy I was able to check out his restaurant during a short trip to Sintra. read more

I planned my entire day in Old Town Sintra around having the 11 EUR lunch here that I had heard so much about (it goes until 3 pm, so I hurried back from Pena Palace and skipped the Moorish Castle, a decision I'm totally glad that I made). They refer to it as the "'Executive Lunch" on the menu, and it's hard to imagine ordering anything else, even though the evening tasting menu looked pretty fabulous and I was almost tempted to just get that since I wouldn't be able to make it for dinner. But, 11 EUR is not to be passed up, so Executive Lunch it was. To be honest, nothing about the food itself blew me away, but the great service, ambiance, and amazing deal, still makes this a worthwhile meal while in Sintra. First Course - Olives + Bread. I actually don't like olives but I ate a few of these. They weren't as potent as those I've had in the past, so I didn't hate them, but they didn't exactly manage to make me a sudden olive fan. Second Course - Soup or Salad - I had the soup. A nice starter. Third Course - They were out of the GuineaFowl and maybe that would have been better than the pretty salty Codfish that I had. Fourth Course - Dessert - The coconut cake was quite good. I was only planning to take a bite but ended up eating the whole thing. To drink (included) I had a glass of white wine, which paired perfectly with my meal. If I had paid much more I probably wouldn't have been as satisfied with the meal, but given that it was 11 EUR, I can't complain. read more

They hype is real! This was a very cute restaurant, a bit outside the main tourist area. The food was amazing.

Excellent food and ambiance! High quality ingredients and wonderful presentation. Lovely interior design and friendly service.

Oh my wow - did that just happen in my mouth? What a great find in Sinatra! I got the Tasting menu with the wine pairings and everything delivered. Lots of very creative flavor combinations that you might not expect, but chef gets high praise! The green gazpacho and basil sorbet was so good! The avocado salmon samphire was on fire ! The scallops with passion fruit risotto was cooked perfectly and was so bright! And the duck margret with sweet potato and fig had so many flavors working together! And finally, the olive oil pudding with pineapple sorbet was the dagger! The wait staff was great. I'd recommend reservations - the place is on the smaller side, but does have indoor and outdoor seating... I'm going back! read more
