Absolutely gorgeous and the food amazing, we went there as a friend recommended and we are not disappointed, can get very busy so arrive early.
Food was fantastic, freshly cooked and served very well, you can ask for half portions if not a big eater and they will charge accordingly.

We went for lunch without a reservation and were lucky. Ordered the mixed seafood platter for 4. Had excellent bread and wine while waiting for the dish. Could not believe how big it was when it arrived. Loaded with prawns, crab (2 types), mussels, oysters, langoustine, Portuguese sea snails, and barnacles. All four of us loved every bite. On top of that, the wait staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. One waiter even taught me the best way to get crab meat out of the shell by demonstrating with one of their crabs. It was a fantastic meal and after we paid the bill, he even gave two of us a small bottle of wine to go. Couldn't recommend more highly!
3. Gauchao da Picanha

Brazilian style Picanha is the stand out for this restaurant. Mixed reviews of other dishes within our party mean that I cant give it the 5 the Picanha deserves, but awesome food, 3 medium sized steaks cooked beautifully, served on a hanging skewer.
Service was a little slow, but the restaurant was heaving with over 150 diners. When you come to choose the location for your holiday steak meal - this is a true blow out!!

Visited this family run establishment this lunchtime after Reading the reviews and was not disappointed. We were welcomed by the waiter (son) and shown to our table. Whilst reviewing the menus we given bread and .an assortment of local cheeses and pates which was a very nice appetiser. We ordered an octopus salad, grilled sardines and grilled squid and a litre of the house red wine. The octopus and squid came with a dish of excellent boiled potatoes and carrot and the sardines with a large plate of salad. All the seafood was superb, fresh and cooked to perfection and very tasty ( cooked by ma and pa ) We apologised to the waiter as we could not manage the salad. All in all some of the best seafood we have had in many a year. The bill came to an amazing €32:50.

Located in Praia do Molhe Leste, just besides the worldwide known Supertubos beach, in Peniche, Xakra Beach-Bar, aims to become the spot to go, for those who enjoy relaxing in the beach...That's right, we really are that close to the sea (!) GPS Coordinates Latitude 39`29`59,96`N Longitude 9`21`54,74`W At Xakra Beach-Bar while you enjoy a breathtaking view with amazing sunsets, you can taste our specialties, which range from the modern appetizers, seafood, our fish soup and the most typical dishes, such as, Fish Stew, Whelks Stew, Octopus in the oven with corn bread among many others, always accompanied by your favorite drink, be it an ice cold beer, a freshly squeezed juice, or one of our selected wines.Xakra Beach-Bar has been open since 2006 and it is above all... A space with a relaxed atmosphere where you should feel good and will definitely want to return! We are waiting for you!

Xakra is a beach bar which has evolved into a small restaurant, and is so popular (with local people as well as with tourists) that it will probably continue to expand. It is located by the beach, facing west, and so does enjoy beautiful sunset views.
It serves primarily fish and the food is of a very good quality. Three of us went with two Portuguese friends in September 2017 and all had excellent meals. I had the breaded cod, which was as good as I have eaten anywhere else. It is run by a local man and wife team and their service was excellent.
So, if you are in Peniche, give it a try. But it does get busy, so it might be best to book. One small word of caution, the restaurant is reached by using a boardwalk from the car parking area. After sunset, this boardwalk can get a bit slippy - so you need to be careful!

They bring right away a couple of appetizers such as octopus salad, shrimp, olives bread and butter. However you may not want to eat a lot...MoreThank you for your comment. Is customers like you that make us continuing and trying to be every day even better.
7. Cantina de Ferrel

Pequeno restaurante de inspiração na cozinha italiana, como alternativa ao excelente cozinha portuguesa
Reviewed By Krista_Dutca - Brasov, Brasov, Romania
We decided to try this place one evening when we did not find another restaurant open. It was a very good decision as everything was spot on:
Pizza - amazing, super tasty and gourmet I could say
Wines - great selection and the house wine was really top quality
Atmosphere - super cosy and super friendly staff
We ended up returning for a 2nd evening here which is highly unusual for us as we love seafood and fish and we thought we would not eat anything else but these during our stay.
Truly loved it (and I am not a pizza fan) :)

A Classic to taste some great seafood and fishes with a great view on Baleal beach The only downside is that the place is quite noisy and the service a bit rushed especially in the evening...

This place is a well run, proper cafe, with no fuss and the customer in mind. Sitting down, you get greeted, menu in hand and asked what you would like to drink, very good service indeed.
Food, service, drinks all served with a smile, well done, great place.

Profresco is a fish market for over 20 years where you can buy all types of fish and seafood, alive, fresh or frozen. Furthermore, we give you the opportunity to choose the fish from the fish market and eat it on a Terrace with a beautiful view to Berlenga island. You can also purchase your cooked seafood and fish to take home on our take-away counter. The service is quite simple, unpretentious and relaxed.
Reviewed By aguiamarinha - Lisbon, Portugal
Very good seafood and fish dishes - both the traditional portuguese ones, plus some innovative creations. Very close to the seafront (separated by the road to the Carvoeiro Lighthouse), it enjoys good views and the fresh Atlantic breeze. Very friendly staff and atmosphere.
