Santo Amaro - Penela

Having lunched here many times until Covid stopped this for a while, a repeat visit was now possible again. This time a mixed experience. The staff was neutral in its approach, rather than friendly. The chicken from the oven (Coxas de frango no forno) was delicious but the thin sliced grilled beef (Maminha) mainly tough and dry. Salad fine and so was the house wine. The dessert (Bola bolacha) also rather dry. Although we were arriving early, the main restaurant was apparently fully boked and we had to sit in the cafetaria part.

Excelente comida típica caseira portuguesa. Um cozido à portuguesa muito bem feito e bem aviado, sobremesas deliciosas, atendimento 5 estrelas! A regressar!

Nós realmente gostamos da nossa refeição. As porções são muito grandes e você não sairá com fome. Tanya foi nossa garçonete e ela foi excelente. Nada era demais para ela. Com certeza voltaremos. O preço por pessoa ficou em torno de 14€, o que achamos bom.

Comida regional e muito bem confeccionada. Bom atendimento. Relação qualidade/preço bastante interessante. Vende queijo do Rabaçal. Muito bom.

Repeat visit. Very busy during lunch. If you do not book in advance the tables in the main restaurant have all gone. More tables in the cafetaria area or on the terrace. Good quality and freshly made food. Quick service. Daily menu all in 10 euros pp inclusive of drinks. Some staff friendly, some not so.
