SOYA noodle bar CARCAVELOS — Restaurant in Cascais

Key word: Bibimbap Out of the 4 dishes I’ve tried this one was the only one worth its price point. It was completely mind-blowing, the explosion of flavor and tasty spices is something I had never felt. The textures, flavors, colors and smells. An unique experience. I don’t usually give 5 stars, and the reason I won’t is due to the pricing. The ramen noodles and similar were not worth the price, but we’ll get into that:

1- Service Simple, nice and helpful. The usuals don’t speak Portuguese so be understanding. Nothing to complain about.

2- Food Try out the dish Bibimbap, I find myself talking about it so often.. As for the Ramen noodles I can’t say the same, it looked low effort. Although the good flavors, the cow beef came in lazy big chunks, so figure out a way of eating it with two wooden sticks. They never have the cheaper options so I wonder if it is a way of getting you to pay extra.

3- Price As a student myself I find it not worth it given it’s price, except for the bibimbap dish. However, for the ones with more comfort money wise it is indeed a good tasting experience and definitely worth a stop-by once in a while.

Although I can’t speak for every meal, overall it was a good experience, hurt a little on the wallet but you still leave satisfied. I wonder if I could replicate that Bibimbap, it...

2nd time I've been here, I tried some new stuff. Thai sweet potato noodles, Korean bibimbap, and tomyum with noodles. It took a while for our order to be taken, which reminded me of the 1st time I visited. Bibimbap arrived and was really lacking in flavour, asked the server if she could bring me some soy sauce, and she said that there was a bibimbap sauce, that was a miss. Almost halfway through the dish, I was thinking, this is the blandest thing I've ever eaten in an asian food restaurant. After the sauce, the dish came to life. Nice concept to introduce people to different types...

Soya has quickly become a favorite spot for authentic and flavorful dishes at a reasonable price. The staff is generally welcoming and attentive, but I've noticed that management could be more proactive in assisting customers. While the waiters are always helpful, it's a bit frustrating when simple requests require waiting for a waiter when managers are readily available. Despite this minor issue, Soya remains a great choice for dining in Carcavelos, especially for those seeking delicious...
