Closed on thursday !
info: Cabo de roca is one of the traditionals to visit on a extended visit to lisbon. Combined with sintra or cascais it can be a very nice day out. Pao de trigo is the ideal place to reload the bateries. Right on the street leading to cabo de Roca, about 3 kms back inland in the first village called Azoia. This restaurant is very rustic has good food and reasonable prices. Meat on a skewer, chicken, fish everything we tried was very good. Visit cabo de roca and have lunch here you will not regret.
During our last visit we were not very happy with the service the man who served us was very unfriendly and run around like he was in a very bad mood... customers should no see this this ruins there good feeling about the restaurant. (the food was good) So they will get another chance... if you go here tell us about your service experience.

Gordinni (estoril)
name: Gordinni
place: part of the gordinni 'group' with three restaurants in cascais and estoril
location: Av. Marginal, 5579 S. João do Estoril2765-603 Estoril
Tel: 214664123
http://www.choupanagordinni.com/
info: The restaurant announce itself as international food but looks like a very italian menu to me. We had to try it... the location is fantastic and it seems to have a full parking lot every time we pass. A rolls royce in the parking lot makes it clear the happy few gather here. It is a very nice place and with a italian cuisine with portuguese and brazilian influences they seem to have a pretty good menu with lots of pizza pasta and beef dishes. For the fish and shelfish lovers some dishes are provided as well. You are difficult if you can not find anything to you taste. It is not cheap but not overpriced eather. There is a price for this prime oceanvieuw location with a good size parking lot. We liked it but it is not the every day tasca more like an ocasion restaurant to go with friends or to celabrate something. It has got that more sofisticated feel to it.
price idea: min 20

Brasa da bela vista (sassoeiras) 2nd review
name: a brasa da bela vista
type place: local portuguese restaurant and grill
location: rua Gonçalo Velho Cabral 90, Sassoeiras, 2775-709 Carcavelos
tel: 214564305idea: less than 20
info: Very Good local restaurant.
Open every day
The restaurant is a big succes, arrive before 8 or you will have to stand in line to get in. Reservation for bigger groups is a must. The restaurant started as a chicken grill i was told but is now famous for all his grilled dishes. There is a vast variety of dishes and better than before they do not seem to run out of things that fast. The whole restaurant has recently been refurbished and it looks a lot better than before. They also serve for take-away and this service seems pretty succesfull too. Try the grilled t-bone (costeleta de novilho) or the espetada saloia (large beef skewer enough for 2) or the ribs (entrecosta) also the fish is very fresh looks very good.
A good idea is sharing a fish dish followed by a meat dish. Fish by the kilo can give you a pricier bill but if you like grilled fish go for it.

Buffet house (carcavelos, junqueiro)
name: Buffet house
type place: asia restaurant.
An all you can eat type place in carcavelos trying to ride the sushi wave.
location: praceta do junqueiro, lote 1, 2775 Carcavelos, Junqueiro (perto do riviera hotel)
tel: 21 4572188
open every day price
idea: less than 10 €
Price quality good. Not the extensive choise you might find in other places but all you can eat lunch for 6.60 or dinner for 8.8 is not really expensive is it ?
It is actually a chinese restaurant that changed their activity. Probably too much competition from the other chinese restaurant close by made them creative and they are riding the sushi wave now. And they are doing well. The quality is better that i would have expected. Beside sushi they serve a couple of hot dishes that looked very chinese to me :) But for 6.6 + a drink per person we had a nice lunch.
