typical food from Alentejo
Reviewed By F4425BCmarcoz
Food was above average. Fish, seafood and porc. Prices were average for Ãvora. Two things were very annoying: 1) unrequested starter at the beginning. We thought: wow, very friendly, bread, olives, sausage pieces and cheese. But seeing afterwards what they intend to charge left us speechless. If youâre the owner of this place reading this lines: stop this very annoying and customer-unfriendly practice. 2) as in many other Portuguese places: TV was always on. We asked the waiter to turn it of, as none of the few guests spoke Portuguese. He did not care and left it on. As we travel with younger kids it is very disturbing to battle all the time to stop them watching TV in the restaurant. They donât stand a chance as moving pictures for untrained are hard to suppress.

Don't even bother coming here if you are a tourist and are not (a) fluent in Portuguese, or (b) familiar with "the system" of this cafe.Wasn't too crowded at 11:00, but we were not even acknowledged... completely ignored (not even an "ola!" or "bom dia!" as we usually get everywhere else here.) We could not even tell if the tables/restaurant were open for actual dishes... we wanted lunch, but there was no sign or indication if they were serving cooked dishes yet (and nobody at the tables), so we went to the cafe counter where people were having pastries and coffee, and we started perusing the savory baked cooks (filled with meats, fish, shrimp, etc. -- we hadn't eaten in 5 hours and needed some protein.) We discussed what we were going to get (a bacalau pastry, one filled with shrimp, and one filled with meat)... still ignored. So I raised my hand to try to get their attention with a "Disculpe..." or "Eu gosto" or "Posso temer...?", then the man who had been tomando cafe (coffee/breakfast) at the counter suddenly cut us off and made an order... consisting of almost EVERYTHING we had just discussed. And he didn't just order one or two... they pulled out the trays and completely emptied them into a box for him.No more shrimp pastries (rissois de camarao)... he took all 10 that were left. No more bolinhos de bacalao, either... he took all those, too. So, we just left. We couldn't even get a SINGLE greeting, or a SINGLE rossoi or bolinho that we wanted. Avoid this place... apparently they don't want tourist business AND they only make enough food to apparently feed a SINGLE customer. (We returned out of curiosity later in the day, around 15:00... and, sure enough, there were still no rissois de camarao. One customer literally bought their entire stock for the whole day.)Don't even bother giving this place a try. Too difficult and unfriendly.

Weâve visited twice for lunch on a winterâs day. Their soups are very good, enough for two. A good solution in a country where a light lunch is always a challenge. House wine was very good. I had queijao for dessert, a delicious sweet cake. Service was excellent and friendly. A nice local environment and easy to find.

This is one common choice in Ãvora, no one looking forward for typical food of Alentejo would get disappointed at any moment coming here for a meal. The atmosphere is like everyoneâs grandmothers (local) houses used to be in the past. And similar words might be said as well about the food! The appetizers, dishes and desserts are excellent, as simple as that! Iâm taking the tomato soup regularly because at Moinho they prepare this dish as my Mother and Grandmother do! I simple love the food here and the prices are fair. I'm not giving a straight 5-star review because I've had tiny issues with the staff once in a while, they should improve the friendliness and also get proper child seats as the cheap ones from IKEA!

Restaurant food made to order, which is necessary to allow time for things to happen, usually customers arrive all at the same time and so with a small kitchen there is no way to do everything at once, but we do requests by order of the kitchen. it comes

This was without doubt our favourite of the restaurants that we ate at in Evora. Located away from the centre near the city wall and ring road, this family-run restaurant serving local dishes is well worth seeking out. Without pretension the place is welcoming with great food and service and very reasonable prices. I'd say booking is advisable but not absolutely necessary, although it may become so later in the evening. I had the pork ribs with migas, my wife the tuna with garlic and pink peppercorns and we'd commend them both. We'll definitely return here.

On an October Saturday evening, my wife and I practically had this tiny, unassuming gem of a restaurant â which during the high season can demand long waits â to ourselves. And what a treat, with wonderfully rustic Portuguese fare enjoyed in the cool autumn air by a centuries-old Roman aqueduct. Be sure to order the mushrooms and the pork cheeks.
