Adega da Talha Velha — Restaurant in Évora

When I was still going over the menu the waitress came to take my order. I kindly asked her to come back in a minute but she kept waiting at the table. I think the lack of English of the waitress was the problem, but it felt impolite. I ordered soup, bread and tuna tataki and a beer. I got a apple cider, the bread was old and hard and the soup was not hot at all. The tuna tataki was very over cooked instead of raw on the inside and slightly seared on the outside. The amount of tuna was not a lot for the price of the meal and it was just not nice to eat.

Im sorry for the people who work there, but my experience is that this is a verry...

Tucked away down a quiet side street. Visited in mid October and weather still warm, hence all outside tables taken. Ate inside which wasn't a problem as the place had much character and the service was good despite it being busy. The food was excellent and many of the dishes were regional and were explained to us by the waiting staff. Seemed to be a family run and the place had a friendly vibe. Prices were very reasonable and being the Alentejo, the wine was excellent. We would have eaten there the following night but they were closed that night. Popular with locals and well worth...

I had a reservation for 9 people, but when we arrived, 7 people had already taken our spot, claiming they were expecting 9 but now only had 7. Ofc this wasn’t true, and it became an issue because the staff didn’t verify the name on my reservation.

The atmosphere and food could have been good, but in our case, it wasn’t (chips were raw). We had to rearrange seating with chairs from the terrace and wait for food without proper glasses and plates.

Please start confirming names on reservations to avoid such problems...
