Restaurante Acontece — Restaurant in Elvas

We randomly passed by Elvas on our roadtrip at the end of August 2022. At first we wanted to have lunch at another restaurant which was more Portuguese but it was so full. It turned out that the experience was really beyond out expectation. We were not very familiar with the dishes on the menu so we asked the waiter for help and he recommended two tuna dishes (tuna with artichoke and tuna with fruits) as those were signature dishes of the restaurant (we even joked then that the restaurant might have ordered lots of tuna today, hence the advice🤣) however in the end I had to say these tuna dishes were the best tuna dishes that I had ever had, given that I'm always a very big fan of sushi and fish tartar.

Our entire meal was €64 including drinks and desert. For dessert we had the chocolate cake and ice cream and the cream cake. Both were amazing. If we are ever in the area again we will certainly...

We had the tuna, which was prepared by the chef at our table and the coconut shrimps. The dishes were fantastic. The flavour was interesting but worked well in this combination. The cheesecake was good, too. I would definitely go there again when in town.
