The river view from the old firehouse is lovely. Coal-roasted cod was flaky and moist, and that lettuce bacon mushroom salad really stood out.

The bacalhau was pretty good &mdash; decent portion for the price. Cozy spot, nothing fancy, but I&#39;d come back.

The cod here is really good &mdash; definitely the highlight. Staff were friendly too. Place has a nice vibe, nothing fancy but comfortable.

The place looks pretty basic from the outside, but honestly the food surprised me. I had the mixed meat sausage and it was really good, something a bit different. The owner clearly cares about the little things, you can tell. Would come back if I&#39;m in the area again.

Hearty Portuguese food, big portions for the price. Daily specials change, but the tripe and pork dishes are solid. Quick enough for a lunch stop, though it can get busy.

The service at this restaurant is top-notch! The staff was friendly and knowledgeable, enhancing our dining experience. I highly recommend trying the tasting menu.

The wine pairing at A Cozinha was exceptional, perfectly complementing the dishes and enhancing the overall dining experience. It&#39;s a must-visit for wine lovers!

Finally, proper Mexican food in Portugal! The tacos were fresh and tasted like back home. Service was on point too. Already planning my next visit. 🌮

Had the two mains with sides and a bottle of wine, plus dessert. Came to &euro;40 for the both of us. Food&#39;s straightforward, nothing fancy, but it&#39;s done right. Place has that local feel, you know? Not trying to impress anyone, just solid cooking. I&#39;d go back for the grilled fish again.

The octopus with garlic and parsley was seriously good, so tender. We sat near the kitchen and watched the chef work, that was cool. Staff even tried to teach us how to say the dish name in Portuguese, we butchered it but they were patient. Fun spot for a casual dinner with friends. Maybe a bit busy but fine.

Good food, wonderful, clean restaurant. Really dellicious, good in any place of the world.Portuguese traditional food with a touch of innovation. . Never forgetting this place. We will repeat, for sure

The owner picked a nice wine to go with our food. Sat by the window with the river view, pretty hard to beat. Place has that simple family-run feel, nothing fancy but comfortable.

The grilled octopus was pretty good, and the sausage with fresh chips hit the spot. Portions are huge, so bring an appetite. Service was quick too.

Perfect moment and d&icirc;ner at monverde ! Thank you so much for all.Ambiance, d&icirc;ner, view, propre working here are amazing. We love to come back ☺️ !

Stopped by for lunch last week. Grilled cod was solid, properly cooked, decent size portion. Place is basic, nothing fancy, but you get what you pay for. Fair price for the amount of food. I&#39;d go back if I&#39;m in the area and want something simple.

The &euro;4 dish was tasty and filling, honestly hard to beat for the price. The two ladies running the place were so warm and friendly, made me feel right at home. I liked that they didn&rsquo;t rush me, just let me sit and enjoy my meal. A bit busy around noon, but still a nice, easy stop.

The grilled calf&#39;s liver was spot on, cooked just right. Place was packed but the staff still managed to check in on us. Solid portion of sides too.

The outdoor seating is what keeps me coming back. Plenty of space, not crammed in. Service was quick too. Had the burger and kebab, both solid. The Oreo mousse though, kinda let it down. Still, for two people the price was fair.

Been coming here for a while now, and honestly the wine list keeps me coming back. Liter of local red for 5 euros, still can&#39;t get over it. Food&#39;s solid too, typical regional stuff, nothing fancy. Place gets busy but that&#39;s a good sign. If you&#39;re driving through, worth a stop. Just don&#39;t expect anything fancy, it&#39;s about the honest food and that price.

The lamb was properly tender, fell right off the bone. You can tell they use the wood-fired oven properly, gives everything that smoky edge. Place was pretty packed when I went, so seating felt a bit tight, but the food made up for it. Would come back for that lamb again.
