I went here for lunch together with 3 others. It's located on the main road in Mertola. The food however was not great, I had a beef with a mushroom sauce which was quite allright. However, the others were not so happy with there food. For example, one had a shrimp salad but the shrimps were very tiny which is not usual in Portugal and smelt bad. Also the service was slow, we almost waited for an hour for our food and it wasn't served in one time. We paid â¬10 per person though which makes a bit up for it. However, it could be better and there must be better restaurants in Mertola.

The food was bland and tasteless. The chips were soggy and oily, and unfortunately I left most of the meal.The setting is glorious overlooking the river, and the staff were very obliging.Would not return again except maybe to have a coffee or soup there!

local restaurant serving locals and travellers on the main restaurant oval "circuit". Good regional food served cheerfully - grilling outside in good weather. you can also sit outside and watch everyone (well, not many!) passing by. Inside the decor is the traditional whitewash and blue trim, often with the ubiquitous football matches on TV for the locals.

There was quite an extensive menu but we're not too keen on traditional food. We opted for steak with mushrooms and scrambled eggs with asparagus plus chips! It was very tasty, the service good and a pleasant atmosphere although it was very busy.

We visited for dinner in the weekend and fortunately made a reservation as the restaurant quickly got very full. The waiter is very friendly and always cracking jokes, the food was great and service very efficient. The decoration is also lovely and the atmosphere light and pleasant.

Lokal am Ortseingang von Mertola

The restaurant is in a very clean section of Mertola. We ate outside and watched the street scene. We tried a dish of very small fish - I don't recall their name. It was time consuming to eat them with their very small but unedible bones. The food was just OK.

It is a multipurpose space, "Resto-Bar". Lunch and dinner service Theme parties, groups are welcome. The view over the river and the backdrop of the village of Mertola is the added value in our outdoor spaces and bar-louge. Come and visit us

You can eat at some good restaurants in Mertola but there is only one with a stunning view on the stronghold and a great set of dishes. Because...wow, who said that rural Portugese cuisine is crude. We had a superb watermelon gazpacho, great lamb dishes and tastefull fish. Cultivating the less is more this is a place we came back for the second evening we were in Mertola.

We stayed at Minas de São Domingos and chose this restaurant to have dinner. It could not be any better: excellent food and the staff were irrepressible. Everything was just marvelous! We will certainly be back and with a big smile in our faces. Oh and the prices are a gem: 12⬠per person with coffee, starters and dessert. Thank you!
