Pousada e Restaurante Recanto

The owner, Mrs Elisa, gave us fantastic service. Prices were okay, too. The restaurant is by the Delfim Moreira roundabout, and the food was delicious. I had a perfect trout, followed by wonderful dessert and fresh juices. They also offered coffee and rapadura as a courtesy. Highly recommend.

We were two people and both really enjoyed the meal. The food was tasty, and the waitress and the person at the register treated us very well. We only found this place after COVID-19 meant we had to turn back to the highway and look for another restaurant. A sign caught our attention at the Delfim roundabout, and the menu prices surprised me because restaurants elsewhere are usually a bit more expensive. Even though it was already 2 p.m., the meal felt made with a lot of care. I definitely recommend it.

My daughter and I had feijão tropeiro for lunch in a quiet, leafy spot with plenty of flowers and a nice breeze. Soft, good quality orchestral music was playing. The service was good and our meal came quickly. I liked the place and recommend it.

The leitoa we were served was cold, with rubbery skin, too much fat, and hardly any meat. When I told the restaurant owner, she didn’t take the feedback well. She had it wrapped for takeaway and left it on the table with the bill. We paid far too much and ate very poorly. They’ve lost a customer, and we’ll warn our friends and family against going there.
