10. Bacalhau&Afins
Overall Ratings

Specialist in cod fish and he's derivatives ..... also with choices of fish and meat .... We believe in customer sensitization to the possibility of each starter, main course or dessert , to set aside a vinic harmonization . Besides a signature cuisine ,

Most English people coming to Portugal will shudder at the idea of Bacalhau - salted cod which is actually the national dish not sardines - mostly because itâs far too salty for Anglo Saxon palates. However there is an exception to the norm and Bacalhau & Afins serve the salted cod (bacalhau) with a modern twist, furthermore the way they prepare the bacalhau most of the salt has been removed and itâs well within the tasting palate of most non Portuguese. So if youâve never tried the delicious salted cod known as bacalhau this will be a good place to dip your toe into the water of this rather delicious foodstuff.We had the âovos com bacalhauâ - in reality this is a quailâs egg wrapped in bacalhau and potato - not unlike a scotch egg but with salted cod - completely and utterly delicious. You get two as a starter so fine for sharing or a good brunch for one!The mains consisted of bacalhau à Zé do Pipo - fried salt cod with buttery mash, veg and mayo - again not too salty and acceptable to the English palate. The other main was Bacalhau with a seafood risotto with clams prawns and mussels- again utterly delicious but very filling.The quality of the food is very high and I would recommend this place to any non Portuguese person who wants to try salted cod - bacalhau- for the first time. The only problem I can see is that when you have elsewhere it wonât be as good as it was here!!!

Restaurant is owned by Americans but the food is local. Amazing portions. Fantastic fish and pasta. The bread and local wine are to die for. It is off the beaten path but well worth the journey.

Unpretentious place, very simple but... amazing fish and sea food. Very down to earth owner and staff, really helping you with the choices and recommendations. Good wines available. Family atmosphere, as if I went to my mom's place. Try the fish soup and then any of the fish stews. Or anything really. Went there twice in 2 days I spent in the area...

Great place to eat. Make sure you book because it is so very.I had the garlic shrimps which were unbelievable. The sauce was so tasty and the shrimps as fresh as you could get. My husband had the fish stew which was the best fish stew he had tasted in a long timeThe atmosphere was nice and even though the restaurant is small, you were looked after extremely well. The smell of the kitchen and the food going to other tables was a delight.I would highly recommend this to anyone and it is family friendly also

If you are interested in a simple sandwich with style in Aveiro, this is your choice. Trincaxa offers several types of "tostadas" (Portuguese toasted sandwiches), along with some mayo and fries. I think this is a good option for those who wants to skip formal dinner (as I did) in Aveiro!

As the headline of this review goes, this restaurant makes high cuisine for very good value. I particularly recommend oysters (ostras de la ria de Aveiro), which are delicious and cooked in a very original way. The tuna dish (atum rabilho) with gazpacho, avocate cream, etc are worth to try. Very good fish, particularly cod, which I think it is one of their especialities. Good desserts, try the strawberries with vanilla and vodka. The service could not be better in all senses. Easy to park around, at least in this season.Hi Holoturia H,Thank you for your visite to our restaurant. We were pleased that you appreciated our commitment to culinary excellence. We always hope that you make the detour to Aveiro, a visit from you. We will certainly try to surprise your expectations. We hope see you again! Best regards, Enmanuel Sabino

If you're at Costa Nova and need a restaurant choose this one.They have a very good selection of fish and meat dishes. The type of food is Mediterranean/Portuguese with a twist, and it's delicious.We had grilled fish (don't remember the name), they have fresh fish on display to choose, pan sealed tuna steak and a (great) fish and shellfish "cataplana" with a touch of coconut milk!!Mr. André did a great job explaining everything and helping us choose, he really goes the extra mile so that you can have a good experience.Well to end the review... All the food was great, I really like and advice you to try the cataplana. The price is just right!Going back for sure!!! Congratulations to the restaurant! Costa Nova needed!!!
