Varandas Do Castelo - Penela

Best restaurant in penela! Waiter was the nicest person and spoke English well. Limited menu but you could tell that any choice would be good. Spent €31 on house wine, sparkling water, 2 entrees, desert, and 2 ginjas.

Excellent service and lovely staff, really looked after us and made sure we had everything we needed. Did a lot of little extras as well, like cutting up the meat for the kids, bringing over fun napkins and cups for the kids, bringing over an extra portion of chips. Clearly a local favourite, quite busy. Food took a wee while to arrive. Menu is fairly typical,. A range of meat and fish dishes, all well cooked and nice to eat. Big portions. Two adults and three kids (kids sharing an adult portion) came to just over 30 Euros. Well worth it.

We arrived here with our three young boys not sure what to expect. The owner of the restaurant who works front and centre, took us under his wing and immediately made us and our boys feel welcome. Soup was blended for the baby on his suggestion, place settings for the boys were set out and food was delivered quickly and with a smile. The dishes were great the set meals were lovely and filling. We came back again the next day because we felt like we were visiting family. Great stop for anyone travelling through the area and having a hankering for good home style Portuguese food. Obligado!

We enjoyed the local wine, mixed grill and the hospitality

Really good portuguese food and the service is amazing. They only do lunches, and its best to reserve a table before. Ask for the specials of the day! (Traducido por Google) Muy buena comida portuguesa y el servicio es increíble. Solo hacen almuerzos, y mejor reservar mesa antes. ¡Pregunta por las especiales del día!
