Restaurante Lusitana

Reviewed By MichHak

Cute little place run by a family. I personally love to encourage small businesses and family owned ones specifically. We ordered the Salmon, was salty however the portions are big. We ordered as well the recommended salty fish with onions. It was very oily. Overall an average place when it comes to food. We had a nice table overlooking the river. Staff was very friendly and service was excellent.

I stopped in for dinner, and sat out on the deck overlooking the river. A beautiful view and the food was fantastic. I had the pork loin, with bacon (you can never have enough bacon) with potatoes and spinach. It was absolutely fantastic. Glass of wine with dinner and a coffee afterward topped it off great place definitely worth a visit.Muito obrigada pela sua avaliação, ficamos satisfeitos em saber que cumprimos o nosso dever de bem servir.

This restaurant outside Amarante on a quiet place, with a stone building and with an huge car park, has typical Portuguese food.Attention that a single meal is enough for two.We had bacalhau and rojões, both very good and in double portions.Service by young and properly dressed young girls, was nice and efficient.A place to go back, definitely.

Restaurante A Eira

Reviewed By TonyDigi

This restaurant is authentic Portuguese and came highly recommended by the hotel concierge when their Michelin star restaurant was unavailable due to wedding party. What a treat! Not crowded early on a Saturday night, (I believe the locals tend to eat later). Were leaving early in morning so we were the first people seated at 7:30. Service was good. Brought some wine from a winery we visited and they were very accommodating considering they had a nice wine list as well. Didn't even charge corkage fee. Paella was phenomenal. So was dessert

In the heart of Amarante, side by side with Tâmega River, Pobre Tolo provides to your customers a very comfortable and inviting space where they can enjoy peacefully a meal prepared with greater refinement and excellence. Giving always preference to taste

Reviewed By Penhadafranca

The restaurant is probably second best in town only to the Michelin star place down the street at the hotel. The cuisine is traditional Portuguese with a modern twist. The service is professional and extremely friendly and knowledgeable. The restaurant itself is very eye pleasing with two floors.. The location itself is perfect, very centralized walking distance from the hotel and the historic district with a great walk along the river. Parking right in front with plenty of shops nearby.Muito obrigada pela sua avaliação, ficamos satisfeitos em saber que cumprimos o nosso dever de o bem servir.

Two main Tasaing Menu options, at €110 and €125 each. This is much more than when we were here last, a few years ago, but we decided to go for it. Fantastic food, brilliantly put together.The lovely ambience was somewhat spolit by the fact that the owner had decided to host his birthday in the same room, along with 3 sons/daughters and partners - and several quite boisterous toddlers. I don't blame the tooddlers, they were quite well behaved, but I do blame the boss for feeling that it is OK to inflict his young grandchildren on diners knocking up a bill of €300 a couple. Perhaps he feels that it's his place, he can do what he wants? If so, I don't agree. He apparently did the same the following evening, but thankfully we were in the other restaurant. I did think about knocking down my rating due to all this but really that wouldn't be fair on the superb chef and waiting staff, or the brilliant food.Dear Client,Thank you very much for your visit and most appreciated comments.I´m very glad to know that you´ve considered Largo do Paço food options to be fantastic, we are really very fortunate to work with such a dedicated team members that will always run an extra mille just to provide you the best experience.Concerning your remarks they will be adressed internally, please acept our most sincere apologies for any experienced inconvinience.Looking Forward to welcome you again,With Kind Regards,Álvaro AragãoGeneral Manager

They didn't have our reservation even when we showed the host her boss's confirmation of our booking, nevertheless, she was able to seat us for lunch. The restaurant is a little hard to find. It's in the family's compound beautified with a variety of beautiful fragrance roses. In nice weather, you should book for outdoor seating. A quaint, modern, and elegant design. We had foie, carpaccio, duck breast, scallops, and Pavlova. Don't deny the home-made bread, olive oil, and mozzarella presented as couverture because it was simple but wonderful. The duck was tender and cooked medium-rare served with cheese puff pastry—divine. Everything was delicious, nicely presented and not overly done, neither rustic nor high-end.
