Tasca Noz

Reviewed By EnCasa D

Una de las recetas de bacalao más exquisitas que he probado. Desmigado, gratinado,con bechamel de espinacas. Y a un precio de risa. Igual que otras buenas opciones de la carta, como las gambas.El local es pequeño pero muy moderno y acogedor. El servicio, en la buena linea característica del país.

Restaurante Cavaleiro

Reviewed By ViajeroDelNordeste

Acudimos a comer un grupo de 11 personas un día festivo de agosto, algo tarde y sin reserva por culpa de la poca seriedad de otro restaurante ubicado junto al castillo de Bragança, y pese a todo nos atendieron sin problema, con rapided y amabilidad.La comida es excelente (la posta de ternera, espectacular, tierna, bien hecha y ración enorme), las patatas fritas son caseras, muy buenas, y los postres, también caseros, exquisitos.Para rematar, el precio es muy muy asequible. Un sitio totalmente recomendable. Merece la pena alejarse unos pocos kilómetros de la capital para comer muy bien y a muy buen precio.

Emiclau

Reviewed By Damien M

Located on the main avenue in the centre of Braganca, Restaurante Emiclau is accessed downstairs.The interior is modern and appealing and very clean.We had lunch there - 'prato do dia' (dish of the day)- always recommended because it offers a choice of fish or meat and is always excellent VFM in any Portuguese restaurant.Emiclau is very popular and not surprisingly - the food was delicious and the service excellent given the number of customers.Well worth a visit.

Restaurante Geadas

Reviewed By martinezcm

At the Pousada they recommended Geadas. It is from the same company owners. It is also located in an unexpected roadside setting for this quality restaurant. For appetizers they brought a mixed plate of prosciutto, cheese, chorizo, olives and olive oil toasted bread slices. Excellent. we ordered the partridge stewed in vinegar, chorizo and onions and served with fried potatoes, chestnuts and a chestnut puree. This is definitively one of the best partridges we ever tasted. Less successful was the choice of grilled mixed cuts of pork as some pieces were too dry . For dessert they had some natural pineapple as fresh fruit, a rarity in most restaurant leaning into heavy dessert offering. The service was extremely efficient and friendly. The wine selection is very good and at good prices.

Restaurante Pocas

Reviewed By Benno Z

Restaurant is located in the town centre. Opens at 6pm. The meal we had was not fantastic, the steak was tough, but maybe we were just unlucky, as the other meals being served all looked very nice. We also found staff not being very friendly, but that is something we generally find in any Portuguese restaurants.

G Pousada

Modern cuisine, with the use of regional products. The head Chef Óscar Geadas, takes you into a journey of the best flavours in Portugal.

Reviewed By RDM99

Our dinner was over-long and over-elaborate and the quality of the food did not justify the delay or the florid presentation. The Pousada itself is a fantastic place to stay, but we far preferred the typical food in the local restaurants.

Being a resident of Braganca at one point and now a regularly visitor (lots of family in Braganca) my wife and I visited the castle for a walk around the grounds and decided to end it off with a coffee and something to nibble. We were shocked to find the price charged was almost double anywhere else. For instance, you need just to stroll less than a hundred yards away to find more realistic local prices. There is nothing special about this place or it's food to warrant such exorbitant prices. Tourist Beware !!! See attached receipts : Receipt on the left is what you should be paying for a pastry/cake and a can of drink like a Coke €1.20 etc. The receipt on the right is what Taska de Ze Tuga charges €2.00, Overpriced? You betchya. Now roll that markup across the menu and your paying through your teeth !! Gratos pela vossa visita ao nosso restaurante para beberem um refrigerante e comerem um bolo típico . Foram a um restaurante de comida de Autor para se refrescarem , num ambiente único a olhar para um dos monumentos mais bonitos de Portugal . Comeram uma nata,como nunca, beberam um refresco de marca . Tiveram um copo top, guardanapo , talheres , quarto de Banho . Pagaram o preço de um café na vossa terra. Sem nada disto, podiam ter perdido o amor a mais 100 € e bebiam como nunca, comiam de chorar, riam, cantavam, eram felizes um dia! Agora por favor temos que saber onde estamos e não comparar o que não tem comparação. Sejam felizes .

Solar Bragancano

This is a beautiful place in the central square of the historic centre of Braganca. Its situated in an old mansion and serves traditional Northern dishes (eg I had pheasant with chestnuts). Not many tourists go to Braganca, but if they do this is definite

Reviewed By John F

We looked forward to visiting Solar Bragancano because of its reputation, only to be frustrated by an unexpected closure for two of the nights we spent in Braganca. Thankfully the doors were open for our last night, a Friday, so we climbed the stairs to encounter a memorable ambience - a beautiful dining room, a bar cluttered with wine bottles standing on the floor and a shelf full of stacked magazines (heaven knows what happens if you pull one from the bottom) and an intimate terrace area at the back near the kitchen.The table settings are traditional and tasteful, the candles sit in elegant candlesticks or candleabra, it's a truly unique setting. But...On the night we visited, service was on the slow side and mainly fell on one long-suffering waitress while a more mature gent in a blazer wandered here and there with no great sense of urgency.A partridge starter seemed interesting - the listing for 'cheese and banana' seemed just weird and I wish I'd ordered it just to see what it was - but what turned up on the plate was uninspiring, bland meat on bits of bread with some salad accompaniment including some rather nice beetroot.My first two choices from the game section of a very lengthy menu - something that always rings a vague alarm bell with me - weren't available so I tried the venison, which proved to be a brown clump of shredded and overcooked meat served with lukewarm vegetables (why is a hot plate such a mystery in so many restaurants?) and another helping of that aforementioned beetroot.Across the table the sole had been subjected to serious overcooking - the worst bit of fish served up in nearly three weeks eating out in northern Portugal, and by some distance - and came with soggy turnip greens and cabbage.There's a good wine list - most of the cellar seems to be arranged around the premises, to be honest - with lots of local choice.I rarely resort to a 'poor' rating but we had three plates of food in what's supposed to be the best place in town, and none of them met that standard or anywhere near. I'll charitably conclude that the problems which forced them to close for the previous two nights still hadn't been fully sorted out, but if you're open for business you have to be on your game.It seems that the boss posts a (sometimes lengthy) response to any review which is towards the bottom end of the scale, and there are a fair few - perhaps he or she could make better use of that time in rethinking the length of the menu, sharpening up the service and making sure that the food is fit for purpose (and hot). Sadly every response appears to be along the lines of 'we're number one in town, you don't know what you're talking about' so I would guess that's unlikely to happen, however many diners register a contrary opinion.EsteJonh F não é verdadeiro.É um português, agora com alguma ligação à Holanda.O seu texto é dotado de falsidades.
