O Miguel — Restaurant in Setúbal

I don't usually write bad reviews on Google, but because of an employee and a mistake I'll have to write this one: I took my pregnant wife and friends to eat at the restaurant last Sunday. We had to wait for an hour outside as they don't have any system to organise/book tables. While we were waiting they offered wine to all the other portuguese people who were on the line but not to us, Brazilians (I thought it could be an accident at first as well). After we got the table we were well treated by a portuguese girl and an angolan guy (I wish I knew their names because they did a superb job), but the lunch was ruined by a Portuguese young employee with tattoos who arrived on the table not knowing the price of anything and being very dry on his treatment. He brought Calamari which we didn't order (but as we were 5 people and ordered many things we thought the calamari was included), he wanted to charge us at the end anyways and it took like half an hour for him to get it sorted. I would definitely recommend this restaurant, but while they have this one employee there I'll...

Péssima Experiência para Famílias com Crianças - Restaurante Miguel em Setúbal

Avaliação: ★☆☆☆☆

Tive uma experiência extremamente decepcionante no Restaurante Miguel em Setúbal. No menu, havia uma opção chamada "Menu Kid" por 8 euros, que incluía bifinhos de frango. Como estava com duas crianças, planejava pedir um prato para cada uma, além de uma caldeirada, que custava 40 euros, sem especificar para quantas pessoas servia.

O garçom, que logo se revelou extremamente mal-educado, perguntou quantas pessoas comeriam a caldeirada. Quando mencionei que seriam 3, ele começou a insistir que eu pedisse a outra caldeirada, de 65 euros, alegando que tinha mais tipos de frutos do mar. Enquanto eu estava prestes a ser convencida, pedi os menus para as crianças, momento em que ele informou que o "Menu Kid" não estava disponível. Em vez disso, sugeriu um prato de 18 euros para as crianças, que custava mais do que o dobro.

Quando questionei por que o menu kids havia sido extinto, o garçom me deu a justificativa absurda de que "não chega frango naquela região" – um argumento claramente sem sentido. Sugeri que poderiam substituir o prato por outra opção, mas a verdade é que o restaurante parece estar focado apenas em turistas ingleses, cobrando preços exorbitantes por tudo.

Após questionar o fim do menu kids, o garçom se mostrou extremamente rude comigo, a ponto de me tratar tão mal que decidi levantar e sair do restaurante. Definitivamente, este não é um ambiente preparado para receber famílias com crianças. Ao lado, existem ótimas opções com menus kids variados e preços justos, entre 8 e 9 euros. Não recomendo o Restaurante Miguel para quem pretende ter uma refeição em família em Setúbal.

Terrible Experience for Families with Kids - Miguel Restaurant in Setúbal

Rating: ★☆☆☆☆

I had an extremely disappointing experience at Miguel Restaurant in Setúbal. The menu listed a "Kids Menu" for 8 euros, which included chicken fillets. Since I was with two children, I planned to order one for each, along with a seafood stew (caldeirada) that cost 40 euros, though it didn’t specify how many people it served.

The waiter, who quickly proved to be very rude, asked how many people would be sharing the stew. When I said three, he insisted I order the larger stew for 65 euros, claiming it had more types of seafood. As I was about to agree, I asked for the kids' menus, only to be told they were no longer available. Instead, he suggested a dish for 18 euros per child, more than double the original price.

When I questioned why the kids' menu was no longer offered, the waiter gave me the ridiculous excuse that they "don’t get chicken in that region"—a clearly absurd reason. I suggested they could offer another dish instead, but it was clear the restaurant is only interested in catering to English tourists, charging exorbitant prices for everything.

After I questioned the removal of the kids' menu, the waiter became extremely rude, treating me so poorly that I decided to leave the restaurant. This place is definitely not suitable for families with children. Right next door, there are great options with varied kids' menus at reasonable prices, between 8 and 9 euros. I do not recommend Miguel Restaurant for anyone looking to have a family...

We've eaten here before and it was amazing but this time it was really disappointing. We have a baby and asked for something for her straight away, the waitress said they had run out of bread but the starter would come straight away. 20 minutes later, nothing. We asked for just something to nibble as the baby was disturbing other diners, and the waitress said just wait, the starter was coming. My husband went to the car to get a snack as by this time it was 3pm and the baby was desperate. We saw other guests getting bread, cheese, starters - and so asked another waiter who said we could have bread no problem! At 3.10 our food arrived (with some bread) and it was all over-cooked. Dry fish, no salt, no condiments. And to top it off, we had to wait a further 10 minutes for the bill in an...
