One of the best meals I’ve had in a while. Went on a quiet Wednesday evening, the place was almost empty. It had two entrances which are very good at hiding how nice the restaurant really is inside. I was in need of a good meal after all day of tracking the old Camino . This place really hit the spot.

Started off with some fried cheese with cranberry sauce, some olives and bread with fish paste. The. Followed that up with the shank which was falling of the bone and melting in my mouth. The portions were generous and I should have been full by now but couldn’t help myself but to try the famous octopus. It was incredible, yummy, it was a real treat , I’ve been eating octopus almost at every stop of my journey and this was possibly the best one ! The only thing I’d change were the potatoes I was not a fan of the way they were cooked and would rather have them served as mash or have baby new potatoes . Can’t fault them just have a different preferences. Finished off with a chocolate ice cream with lava cake and it was divine. Service was lively too, the waiter was never too much and I never had to look too far to get his attention. Wine was second to none.

If you are in Barcelos this place is a must,

Another note they do have pilgrims menu at €15 per person .
