Discover Restaurants offering the best Portuguese food in Cascais, Central Portugal, Portugal. A coastal town just 20 miles west of Lisbon, Cascais was once a small fishing village, but its idyllic scenery attracted the attention of artists, writers and expelled European nobility in the 20th century. Today, it still attracts high society, but all society comes in force to enjoy the gorgeous beaches and adventure options like sailing and surfing. The Conde de Castro Guimarães Museum, a former palace, is now open to the public and displays an impressive collection of art and artifacts.

O Carloto

Reviewed By Babsvidal

During our stay in Cascais we went to O Carloto and liked so much the food, the service and the ambience that we repeated, twice!. They don't have an extended menu. Which is not necesarilly bad. They serve fresh, good, home-made, Portuguese food. Really really recomended. One of the few restaurants in this coast area, out of the center of Cascais, not for tourists but locals. Also top cleansiness.

We had the mixed fish plate for two. Which was enormous but lacked some quality and had various dried out elements, like the mussels. I’d be much happier with a smaller better quality plate. Wine was good. The service was charming. muchas gracias para su comentario, en el restaurante dices "richissimo" a frente del camarero y ahora en tripadvisor este comentario???otro dia ,otro cliente ,otra opinion......no va la pena agregar mas....

Armazem 22

Reviewed By Carolinestockholm198

We made the reservation via messenger, fast and kind communication gave a good first impression. The place is located in the historical centre of Cascais, easily accessible via uber. Greeted upon arrival, served freshly baked bread, a delightful sausage and some nice hummus with that. I had the wagu sirloin, 58euros, but worth every cent! My mother had the Angus sirloin, also high quality meat. Beeing a Swede, I would have loved some sauce to go with the wonderful meat but you can't have it all. The chimichurri gives a great touch but honestly, the meat itself stands very well alone. House wine was excellent, both the red and the rose. Very friendly and attentive service. For meat lovers, this is the perfect place, I would certainly come back if I ever find myselfe in Cascais again! Highly recommended.

Had read the reviews about this place, and luckily managed to squeeze in without a reservation, it’s a superb restaurant ,with a cute outside area for pressings. We had lovely meals, all really tasty and full of flavour, quite big portions though which meant unfortunately we had no space for desert. Next time! Really enjoyed the wine and beer too. Thanks for a super evening, we will be back.restaurant,superreRestaurant ,Restaurant restaurantrestaurantrestaurant, ,lotsofcharacter, cute outside seating area. The restaurant was really busy, but still had excellent service, really impressed with our food, the only very minor point was that the meat and fish we ordered was undercooked, but when mentioned it was sent straight back and re-done for us, everything was perfect then

Excellent cuisine, combining quality fresh products, like fish from Portuguese rich waters, with the innovation one expects today. Warm nice atmosphere in a simple but elegant setting, a friendly service and a light creative approach reinventing the traditional flavours, all result in a perfect dinner.

We booked through The Fork website and were seated at 18:30 although it was earlier than we would normally like to eat, we didn’t want to miss the opportunity as we had seen all the positive reviews.We were not disappointed, it is small but very cosy, the waiting on staff were friendly and helpful. The food was as expected; excellent. We had the nduja bruschetta and the beautiful truffle ravioli and a nice frozen almond and chocolate cake. The house red was very agreeable and after our coffees were given a complementary tot of port.People were on a waiting list outside, but we didn’t feel rushed. Excellent food and service, but book well in advance unless you don’t mind waiting outside with a drink.A place to definitely return. Superb.

Taska Lusa

Typical Portuguese Cuisine with a special touch, in a family environment. Close to the Casino and Estoril beaches. Specialities from octupus to pork cheeks, bacalhau and fresh tuna.

Reviewed By Tekniikka

Arrived as the first quests at 7pm. Had our orders in at 7.10. Two of us (party of 7) took starters. Other diners start coming at 7.30pm. The starers arrive at 7.50pm. Everything takes forever. First main courses arrive at 20.20pm. Or at least part of it; pork cheeks come but the mashed asparagus thingy still awaits. It arrives app. 10 minutes later. My girlfriend's veal loin is gray, blue rare at the best and very chewy. Might still have a pulse even? We send it back and they grill the all-ready cut steak pieces to done. Only my brother actually liked the his food. Floor manager comes to ask is everything ok? We explain the situation; nothing has really gone right and everything has taken forever. He just turns on his heels without saying a word. And by the looks of some of the other parties we weren't the only ones not enjoying the dinner. Like said, nothing went right and we really weren't even apologized until we had paid the bill. On the plus side there were toys so at least our groups 2 year old had a blast. By this experience alone, I would not recommend this one to anyone but given the rank at TripAdvisor it honestly can't be THIS bad?? And as Finns this review is saying alot...Hello Tekniikka:We are really sorry for the bad experience You had at TaskaLusa. We work hard everyday to be able to have the rank and reviews that We have and that I'm sure you've seen. We have been fortunate to be able to give different experiences, much more positive, as You can see at TheFork for example, that same night.We will look into what happened thoroughly and make sure we will not make the sames mistakes again.If You decide to visit us again, I'm sure We will be able to provide a completely different experience of Portuguese Cuisine and of our Restaurant.
