Sabores da Ria — Restaurant in Olhão

Easily, the worst meal we have had in Portugal ... nuff said.

The server had an attitude and was not concerned about service. The food was substandard and the portions small, especially for the prices.

My wife order the Bitoque, a slice of meat that was not even 1 quarter-of-an-inch thick, but they still managed to serve it rare, bloody in the center and inedible for my wife. I slice that thick must have been cooked less than 30 seconds on each side to be that rare. The smattering of fries were cold, a serving they should be ashamed of.

I had the Pork and Clams (€16.50), my favorite dish, with no more than 10 small clams, a few chunks of chewy pork, and the same very small side of fries, what a disappointment!

The four of us paid over €100 for a less than mediocre meal (lobster goes for €110 per kilo) and bad service, . They prey on tourists to seperate them from their money, but these locals will never return again.

It was a shockingly bad expérience. We waited for the food for 1 hour and the restaurant was not full. One of us got the raw meet and he had to fry it himself. (It was already very funny... waited for 1 hour to cook his own meal.) The weiters have no clue of what they are doing. (2 people get one card to read the menu.) They are not trained they probably dont have a table number for each staff, they choose to serve whoever they want. The food vas very simple, l can make better food at home. The drink, that was called gin tonic was a joke. I guess the chef has no clue of cooking, the owner neither. 2 star is the most this restaurant deserves. The fault is not the staffs its the owners. Sorry, you need to do better!...

I Waited over an hour for my food, which when I got the food was cold.. my sisters steak was not even seasoned & when she asked for it to be cooked “well done” it still came back rare. There was also ink still left in the squid which squirted on my friend ….& from previously working at a restaurant, I’m pretty sure it supposed to be cleaned out. The boiled potatoes were raw. when we asked to be seated inside, one of the servers told us there was no space, meanwhile there was many empty tables without reservation. Just PURE LAZINESS to move us inside and food didn’t event come out yet. This place is Definitely overrated & not worth the price...
