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.

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.

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.

Sooo I was so happy to find Restaurante Mar Do Inferno! It had gorgeous views of the Atlantic Ocean and the best seafood ! We made our reservation online before leaving California. It was easy and had an English and Portuguese option. We arrived and once we got there we were greeted warmly and seated quickly . There were all these fresh seafood options that you could pick from in live tanks ! Service was top tier !! Our waiter was funny and very entertaining! He warmed up even more as the evening progressed! We had the best view of the sea and ambiance was lovely !
