I have visited this restaurante for Easter Sunday lunch with my family. Due to this event, the restaurant was full and I believe the issues I faced on servicing side had the same reason.
Short Story:
Easter Sunday and restaurant was not accepting any Reservations. I can understand that, but we arrived early, around 12PM and the traditional dish (roasted goat) we were looking for had already sold out, that was the first disappointment.
The second downside point was the service, messy and slow. We were 60 minutes waiting for our food, but during that time we saw other tables being served and some of them larger groups than ours, we were only 7 persons.
Finnaly the food started to be served, but also here we face some issues. We ordered 3 different dishes, and were not served a same time. So some have started to eat 5 to 10 minutes before the others.
The good side of all meal was in fact the food itself. All the 3 were perfectly cooked and tasty. Easly noticed that ingredients had very good quality, one of the of options we ordered was the seafood rice and the seafood was very fresh.
About prices, I think they are a little inflated. Beside the quality is good, they charge too much, the ration quality/price are not resonable considering the bad service and the messy atmosphere.
DO I WILL RETURN?
Can happen, but never on a special day and never as my first option.

A place where you get different flavours, a buffet type and a great selection of Deserts.Staff's attention: "depends on the wind"... (they can be quite helpful and use lots of promptness but you can also wait 10min for a simple cup of coffee)

We were recommended this restaurant. Arrived an hour too early(starts at 1900) however, we met Luis the Chef and owner outside, who was kind enough to take us to a local bar. Several drinks later went back to the Adega. Made to feel most welcome and looking forward to a good meal. We opted for the buffet, all of 5.50 Euros each. The quality way surpassed what one would expect for this price. The cod was excellent as were the ribs. Wine an astounding 5 Euro's a litre, you can have half. We had white and red, both good. Puddings were a seperate price, where you went to the dessert counter and helped yourself to whatever you wanted(fixed price). We met Luis inside who invited us to one of his grand openings of a special pie for 12 to 15 people. All the guests were more than happy for us to watch this grand piece of theatre. Apparently the pie is 150 Euros. To give you an idea, it was like an enormous 'Desperate Dan' pie, minus the horns. Its a speciality and has to be ordered 48 hours in advance. We had a great time there, the bill was run through the till and was miniscule. How do they do the buffet at that price we just don't know? We gave a very generous tip to reflect how we treated by all and due to the exceptional value. Some I see are making remarks about the buffet, all I can say is I am marking this on the price, quality and service. Thank you Luis and the happy staff.

In Nogueira da Regedoura, there is a magnificent restaurant, where quality and service go hand in hand. I ordered half portion of "carne de porco á alentejana", had water and one espresso. The half dose would be enough for two people. Excellent wine list and impeccable service. It is worth to go there, at least, for special days!

Nice place, food is good and portions are good.
presentation is good. I had the cod with corn bread and the veal and it was good.
The restaurante decor is also good, at least not that typical look of Portugueses restaurants with poor decor. Service was good and fast.

I end up in this restaurant by accident and it was a very good surprise. Nice traditional Portuguese food with a good dining room. The kitchen is completely open and immaculate clean. The wine list together with the sympathy of the owner Jose Manuel make this visit worth to repeat. The prices are very cheap.

Monday July 11, 2016 stopped in for dinner. As soon as you arrive at your table you are presented with chouriço (Portuguese sausage), Feta cheese, miniature toast, baby tomatoes...FYI if you start to grab the irresistible appetizer just remember you will be paying that at the end. Bread and butter is also an extra.
I recommend the bife folhado with cogumelos, it also comes with chips. The mushroom sauce was light simply divine. The sangria was an excellent choice to accompany the amazing entree.
Their prefixed lunch is 6 Euros per person which you can choose between meat or fish. They serve soup, main entree and coffee (espresso).
I can't wait to try their lunch, looking forward on going there soon.

Casa mia is without a doubt the best Italian restaurant in Feira. When I have a craving for Italian food I don't think of any other restaurant. Great food and ambiance. Try the salads and the camarão e abacaxi pizza they unbelievable!!!

Go for veal dishes,the best was the grilled one, but the oven which came with a smoked bean sauce was good as well. As appetizers choose churicco saussices and baccaliao fish pastries,the best I ate in Portugal.The Deserts, marcuja pie and pinapple mousse were heaven.The restaurant is located near an empty deserted pool in a park,spooky atmosphere. The restaurant was full of locals and the service great.They dont speak english but can show you dishes.Good value and not expensive. Huge portions, beware,-only take "meia dose "-half portions!!!
