This remains, arguably, our very favorite spot to dine in Ericeira. We’ve been to more expensive restaurants but the food and the service draw us back here. The onion rings are delicious - not quite sure what their secret is but we ALWAYS order them as a starter. I’m allergic to shellfish but my wife always orders a shrimp dish here and loves it. I usually order one of the steaks (on this last visit with mushroom and onion sauce) and it is delicious. As picayune as it sounds, even their bread rolls are delicious. In fact, this last visit I bought some to take home with me and enjoy the following morning. The cheesecake is a good desert choice. And their coffees (I’m partial to meia de leite) is always good. Service is always good and whether you get Carla, Bianca or another one of their servers, you will be in good hands. This is our “go-to” dinner (or lunch) spot...
Read moreCame here with friends and two kids, we were among the first to get there a bit before 12:30 (the earliest they accept bookings for), we ordered food quick because the kids need to eat at that time, and somehow literally every other table got their food before us. We waited one hour and 10 minutes to get our food. The kids got very annoyed for having to wait one hour and 10 minutes to eat. And so did everyone else. The food was below meh. The bitoque has the worst watery store bought mustard sauce I've eaten. This is one of those places that manage to survive because there aren't enough restaurants in Ericeira and people have to come here because there's nowhere else. Prim is in front of it and is alright, casa portuguesa is 20 minutes away and way better. This place is just not worth it and I wish they hadn't singled out the only table...
Read moreI visited this place on Sunday with my family. We we're a group 7 and ordered different dishes to try. The quality of the food in this place is completely over-rated for the price of it. Our table was taken care of by a lady who wasn't friendly at all or even kind enough to present the menu or offer options for one of the guests who was allergic to shrimps.
The dish of Fried Chocos that we ordered was tasteless, and the french fries were not freshly made; one could tell they were refried. Bitoque was hard and dull. The garlic shrimps were baasically a soup of oil.
We all felt like she wanted us to leave, so she didn't have to work. It was definitely a bad experience, and I don't recommend this place if you want to have a nice family gathering or an...
