Restaurante | Casa das Muralhas — Restaurant in Covilhã

While staying at Casa das Muralhas guest house, I made dinner reservations at the restaurant. I had a combination of starters including a delicious creamed vegetable soup with a sprinkling of herbs and nice croutons for crunch. I also tried their Cheese crisp with was a warm local Serra de Estrella (Star Mountain Range) sheep cheese inside a crispy pastry. This was one of the best cheeses I have tasted. My entrée the first night was delicious vegan meatballs with a curry coconut coating served on a bed of flavorful spiced rice with a few purple cauliflower florets for texture, taste and color. Fantastic dish. The second night my entrée was a noodle pasta with sautéed mixed vegetables in a soy ginger broth. Again, this was very flavorful, great texture and a beautiful presentation. My desert the first night was a warm brownie with pecans and assorted fruits moated in a fig preserve and a topping of tangerine sorbet with an additional topping of a fresh physalis. My second night, my desert was an apple crumble topped with vanilla ice cream and surrounded by assorted fruits. The deserts were a combination of textures and sweet and tart flavors that were perfect! Overall I really loved everything about Casa das Muralhas restaurant and I highly recommend that you visit if you are...

O restaurante Casa das Muralhas, na Covilhã, é uma mistura de tradição e modernidade, num ambiente acolhedor e elegante, perfeito para um jantar romântico ou uma refeição tranquila com amigos. Localizado numa zona histórica, oferece uma experiência gastronómica única, com pratos que se destacam pelos sabores autênticos da região. O serviço é atencioso e os funcionários são muito simpáticos e solícitos a recomendar os melhores pratos de acordo com os nossos gostos pessoais. Os pratos são muito bem apresentados e elaborados com ingredientes frescos e de elevada qualidade. Por sugestão do sr. Ricardo, iniciamos com a bruschetta de abacate, requeijão, burrata e ovo escalfado, seguida do lombo de bacalhau com doce de cereja do Fundão, puré de grão e grelos salteados e do tornedó de vitela com molho de cogumelos Morchella, bolinhas de batata e queijo da Serra e grelos salteados. Para acompanhar, foi-nos servido um Quinta de Lemos, 2012 - Jaen. Tudo magnífico! Para sobremesa, ainda houve espaço para o crumble de maçã com gelado e o brownie de chocolate branco com amendoins e gelado de tangerina. O valor da refeição é equiparado ao nível de qualidade e requinte que nos foi apresentado e é uma excelente escolha para quem procura uma experiência gastronómica autêntica e memorável na Covilhã. Vale muito...

Good environment, with great care taken to conform with Covid regulations. The food was very good and fairly priced. The restaurant was full (with appropriately distanced tables) and the two servers did a great job looking after everyone. My only slightly negative comment is that the waiter/sommelier was a little enthusiastic with his recommendations, but was generally knowledgable and...
