The tables are really close together here, and our visit was rather spoiled by someone smoking at table next to us and blowing her smoke straight towards my husband. He never complains about anything but did eventually have to say something to her. She did then blow her smoke in a different direction but didn't apologise. Fortunately the closeness of the tables also had a positive aspect as we had a nice chat to the people on the table on the other side. The food was fine but not really memorable.

First thing to note this place is not in Sao Teotonio - it's in Brejao, off the road in the way to Odeceixe from Sao Teotonio. I should really have mentioned this in my first review! It's just before the crossroads in Brejao, there is a large parking area opposite. Anyway - this is a very reliable locals restaurant that does good unpretentious food, cooked well and with good service. Helpfully it has an English menu too. It has nothing to sell it in terms of location or view, but fish dishes are tasty and the meat is very good quality. They have nice half bottles of wine too which is handy if only one of you is drinking. For price and quality, it is far better than some of the other more pricey restaurants in the area. Highly recommend.

Very typical place with very good food. Fresh fish and homemade cooking.
We were lucky, usually the place is too crowded and it's difficult to find table without reservation, but just when we arrived, a table was free.
We hade Porco a alentejada, Feijoada with octopus and squid, and grilled fish. One bottle of wine and coffees.
Everything well cooked and tasty. Good customer service (not so usual in Portugal).

This restaurant was rated highly by a travel book. The place is seaside, by the fishing boats, and has old world charm. They serve a variety of fresh fish. We ordered the fish stew which was boney fish parts with potatoes, tomatoes and green pepper. This dish was large enough for 4 persons and very bland. It was full of the remnants of fish, mostly bones. OK, so we eat like the locals and have decided they don't care for flavorful dishes. The octopus salad, served warm with roasted garlic and olive oil was the best! A slice of bread with this starter and a glass of wine would have made for a perfect light dinner.

I write this review to help the extremely kind staff of this restaurant. The restaurant must indeed be extremely good. We arrived at 12:15 on a Saturday during the touristic high season. This is not normal time to have lunch in Portugal, especially on a Saturday, but I guess our intuition was on to something before we knew for sure. We found out that there was no chance of having lunch that day... There were no less than 60 people on a waiting list. The room takes 30. It's easy to imagine the waiting time. Understandably, the restaurant takes no Reservations. The only way to eat avoiding a long wait is to arrive pretty early. I overheard people talking about 11:00ish. This is simply crazy! Since this is an authentic touristic cul de sac, we ordered some cold food from the bar and converted it in our lunch. It was very good.
So, please, stop coming here during high season. The poor staff cannot handled it anymore.

Whenever you need a safe choice to please your kids and yourself, pizza is the option to go. If it happens that you are near Zambujeira do Mar, São Teotónio and Odeceixe, don't worry you have a very good option. Il Padrino not only has the owner itself making you delicious pizzas, but also an oven with a real wood fire. Good value for money.

A Tasca do Bernado is a great place for friends and families alike. Good traditional food, try the grelhada mista which is a tasty braai of iberian pig. Friendly service in spite of the sometimes long waits. But who's in a hurry in Alentejo? We will be back :)

Found by chance on a wet and windy Saturday night. Warm welcome, tasty prawns in onion and garlic sauce for a starter.
Our mains were tuna in tomato and onion sauce (good) and seafood and potato soup (quite good but very stodgy).
We found it a bit on the pricey side compared with what we've been used to.

Staff are very surly and the food is not great. We had the vegetarian pizza which was in fact a Margarita with a raw salad on top and a very lacklustre salada alentejana. Would not recommend.
