Curral dos Caprinos — Restaurant in Sintra

Bang. An experienced google map user aren’t you? You just found sintra’s sweet spot. Exceptional atmosphere, hospitality and quality. An authentic local restaurant. Traditional food made with love. Dishes are pricey but huge and meant to be shared. The chicken soup was one of the best I ever had.

Very disappointing! I know this restaurant since I was a kid. It used to be so good. Wanted to revisited and take my husband for a nice lunch. We went on a Friday for lunch. Restaurant was busy but not full. Waited almost 1 hour to get our food. It was very tasty but small portion and loads of bones, for the price that it is charged. You really need to improve the service and re-think about the way of serving the food. We know that "cabrito" has bones but please don't serve just bones and almost no meat and charge an outrageous price for it. I don't mind paying a bit more than average but I expect a good service and a decent portion of food. It is a pity that's your standards...
