Quinta do Quetzal

Reviewed By Peter194

Relatively new winery (2002) with fine restaurant showcasing the range of wines accompanying very good food. Diverse menu with snacks, full a la carte, and two fixed price menus including wine with each course. Tasting menu featured well cooked, well presented dishes. The service from each member of staff was highly attentive with interesting explanations/descriptions of both food and wine. Delightful surroundings. Excellent value for money.

Taberna do Arrufa

Reviewed By TimAkkerman

During our road trip through Portugal, we accidentally stepped into this bar while visiting the lovely village Cuba. We were the only couple sitting in the garden and were served perfectly by the friendly waitress. Cause we were visiting this place in low season, we did not expect the kitchen to be ready. But it was the total opposite. The chef prepared a perfect tapas menu. For us this restaurant made our visit to Cuba something we won't forget.

Restaurante O Camoes

Reviewed By miguelstanley

If you want a family experience and food like it tastes a hundred years ago with ingredients fresh from the land. This is the place. It's low key, unpretentious, simple and family owned and run. Don't expect fashion or fancy thing. Expect to be treated with love and to eat like you have never eaten before. I love this place

5. Cafe Restaurante O Feio

Chegamos a Alvito num dia de muita chuva, ainda por cima feriado de carnaval.Estava tudo encerrado demos duas voltas à Vila para ver se encontrávamos algum local aberto para comer.Surge-nos um Café Restaurante, sem grande aspecto exterior mas optamos por entrar.Passando a zona do café, existia uma sala para refeições. Decoração original e muito bonita. Espaço frio mas que a simpatia da D. Maria Catarina aqueceu rapidamente.Experimentamos Febras Grelhadas, Arroz de Lulas e de Abanicos Porco Preto.Estava tudo muito bom. Dose muito bem servida.Para sobremesa provamos a Sericaia que para mim foi talvez das melhores que provei.Acompanhamos com Tinto da Casa.A conta é mais do que justa, face à qualidade e à quantidade.Para quem vai à Alvito, aconselho este local.

O Buraco da Zorra

Reviewed By DaveH722

Alvito in Autumn is not overblessed with dining possibilities, and this looked like (and was) a cosy, welcoming place. The locals were dining there and it is clearly popular. But in common with other eateries, there is little idea of how to treat diners even in the smarter places, let alone the spit and sawdust ones. There was none of the cheese whose description in a previous review had helped entice me in. The vegetable caldo (clear broth) we ordered was forgotten, out came the main courses, and they were not so good when kept warm as we ate the soup! The wine list was good and we ordered a 2004 red which really needed decanting to remove the debris: this is a wine growing area and locals should know that. The main course was hearty and good, but not above the normal. The desert and coffee was fine, too.This may be a better option when it is busier in high season, but be prepared for hit and miss (even indifferent) service and gastronomic highs and lows. While acceptable, lots of other rustic places in Alentejo are way better.Hello Dave H, i apologise for not meeting your expectations, especially since you were such kind and educated customers has i recall. You are right about the service that particular evening, we,ll do our best to improve that situation, the low season is in fact an issue.About the wine though, i'm sure you will give me the benefit, that i advise you to choose a more recent wine, especially since that 2004 bottle was not a Reserve, you tasted the wine and said it was good, and when you asked for a second bottle of the same year, one would assume everything was fine.Thank you for your review and we hope you'll give us the chance of redeem ourselves on a future visit. All the best.

O Frances

Reviewed By maas_johnf

This was the best robalo (snook or some say sea bass) we've ever eaten. One serving was plenty for two. And at fifteen euros cash, it was a bargain. The vinho verde (green wine - an effervescent young white wine) - was every good.

Cafetaria da se

Reviewed By edjan_11

This little restaurant (you do sit at tables and are served) was recommended by our town tour guide as having wonderful salads, and it didn't disappoint. As you face the church, it is around the corner on the right, down the stairs. Simple and friendly, there were clearly locals who go there regularly, but English was understood, and the menu explained. Takes credit cards, and is reasonably priced.

Restaurante O Casao

Reviewed By DutchGld

Restaurante O Casao is not a large place but cosy with a friendly atmosphere. The family owned place offers a nice range of local specialties, such as borrego or bacalhao spiritual. You cannot leave without sampling the home made deserts such as (when you are lucky) Molotov. The Mousse de chocolate is also great. A great choice when.you do.not want to spent more than €15 pp and yet want quality food.
