They are SO very warm, so very kind, so very welcoming and friendly. It's a small restaurant with a lot of heart. They bring you the fish to choose from and they grill it up over a wood fire - you can taste the smokiness. I believe they only season the fish with flake salt. I'm getting ahead of myself. First they bring bread and olives and sheep milk cheese to nibble on. We ordered the clams - pretty sure it's cooked with wine, butter, garlic, cilantro & garlic and they give you a nice sized lemon wedge to squeeze all over it. SO GOOD. Back to the fish - that first bite blew my mind. It was so fresh, so perfectly salted, so smokey, so melt in your mouth. Whole boiled potatoes come to the table and a simple mixed salad with romaine, tomatoes, beets, come purple cabbage, cucumber. We used the olive oil and vinegar on the table, salt & pepper on the boiled potatoes and man was it tasty....so simple perfect. At the end of the meal, they brought us tiny terracotta cups that they fill with pomegranate & cinnamon schnapps that is such a lovely finish alongside some espresso that we ordered. We are honestly thinking about returning to Nazaré just to have this meal again before we leave Portugal. We can't stop thinking about it.

Best Food in Nazare…read more This family run restaurant was our favourite in Nazare. Food was amazing and we wanted to try everything. So much flavour in each dish that we couldn't pick just one dish as our favourite. Pair your meal with a great bottle of wine. We choose the Mateus Rose. Amazing prices !! MUST try them!

They also had a wonderful selection of local wines that were very good. I would absolutely recommend this restaurant to anyone that comes into this beautiful beach town.

The restaurant has a welcoming, laid-back atmosphere right by the lookout of the beach. It looked like they were short staffed cuz the restaurant was full with only two servers and probably less people in the kitchen because I felt the service was slow I had the grilled seabass and shrimp for appetizer. Both dishes were excellent. The seabass was perfectly grilled, moist and flaky inside with just the right char, while the shrimp were plump, juicy, and seasoned beautifully. The flavors were clean and really highlighted the freshness of the seafood. If you're in Nazaré, this is definitely a place to check out for simple, perfectly prepared seafood.

What an amazing meal with beautiful views!…read more We were visiting Nazaré during a tour and stopped here for lunch. We started our meal with an appetizer of olives, bread, and cheese. The cheese was so fresh and the appetizer as a whole tasted great! The servers were all quick and I noticed them speaking English with other customers, so if you don't speak Portuguese then you should still be fine. Our main dishes were loaded with garlic flavors. We absolutely loved this entire meal and loved seeing the ocean outside of the windows. Overall, I highly recommend visiting this location if you are visiting Nazaré!
