Casa dos Torricados — Restaurant in Santarém

We were advised that CdosT had veggie food, and we took the further advice that the local delicacy, torricado, came in a veggie version which was good. Hooray, we thought. We ate in the room at the back, called 'outside' but with no sight of the sky. Despite that, it was an okay setting: it's quirky, and cooled by misted water. The food though: oh dear. As vegetarians, we are accustomed to having peculiar combinations of items and have come to accept not having much choice on a menu. Encouraged by the effusive recommendation it had been given, we each chose a half portion of the vegetarian torricado and were told had a mushroom topping. To our great disappointment, it was really quite unpleasant: the texture was like gluey stuffing and the taste was like rancid stuffing. And, sadly, there was a huge quantity of topping. The taste lingered all afternoon and into the evening. But don't let my experience put you off: if you are a party of three or more, order half a portion to share between you and add egg and chips or something else you are certain that you like! And do give it a good review if you enjoy it. The bashed potatoes that were served with it...

Veey traditional food, flavoury and not salty, great octopus (which was what we chose), good soup and sweets with enough sugar. Everything was well balanced except for the fat/olive oil that was soaking the bread served underneath this great specialty. Waiters were polite and funny, but when it comes to tips, it is not your waiter who receives them. The open space was pleasant and spacy and the eggs are perfectly cooked. You can park around the area but not at the door. No accessibility for wheelchairs. Clean and...

Cada ano está a vir a descer na minha consideração. Em vários jantares de grupo durante 5 anos em Santarém, este último (+/- 50 pessoas), neste estabelecimento foi péssimo. Reservado com 2 semanas de antecedência. Marcamos jantar para as 20h, onde tínhamos o menu de grupo, onde estava incluído bebida à descrição, comida a descrição, entradas e sobremesa.

Pontos negativos: -começaram a servir as entradas pelas 21h45. -fizeram o grupo pagar antes de consumir. a comida veio pelas 22h09 (reforço que a reserva era para as 20h e a cozinha fechava às 23h). Consequência veio pouca comida para todos. bebida que supostamente era a descrição, a partir das 20h, só foi servida após recebermos o prato principal. na ementa está referido “peixe do dia na brasa (para quem solicitar)”, foi solicitado e disseram que já era tarde para o cozinhar. -Ao falar com a gerente, a mesma referiu que “já não faço mais jantares para grupos de m*erda” e não estava aberta para ouvir qualquer opinião. No qual foi tudo descrito em livro de reclamação. nas entradas era referido que vinha “azeitonas, manteiga” nunca veio.

Pontos positivos: empregados excelentes. Boa dinâmica, simpáticos, educados, sempre atentos aos nossos pedidos. a comida não estava má, mas a qualidade tem vindo a regredir. sobremesa e café, nada a dizer. o espaço é ótimo para grupos grandes solicitado prato vegetariano,...
