O Pote Do Leitão Lda. - Pombal

Food, atmosphere and staff were all were wonderful. Food: 3 of us shared the 'menu leitão '. Although we tried, there was so much food, that we were unable to finish it all (nevertheless the remainder left with us in 'doggy bags ' . The starters were fabulous, a variety of pork 'parcels ', wrapped in wonderfully light pastry. Accompanied by feijoada. We had to keep reminding each other to try to leave space for the main course but the food was so moorish, it was hard to leave it alone. The main course, leitão, was perfect. At some places, I have found the overall dish can be a bit greasy, the meat a bit fatty and the skin tough, however, O Pote do Leitão 's melted in the mouth. We had a vihno verde to accompany the meal, which was ideal light and didn 't detract from the food 's flavours. Atmosphere:It is a lovely, interesting restaurant. The walls are adorned with photos of the many 'famous ' people who have dined there. Although it is not a pretentious place and the staff make you feel welcomed and at home. We spent over 3 hours dining unhurriedly these. It was perfect, the way a great meal should be enjoyed, not in a rush but with good company and conversation. I had last eaten the restaurant some years back, it was great to return there and I am sure I will do so again in the future.

Famous for its roast pig. For 20 euros you get a complete meal. Appetizers, drink, roast pig , potato chips and roasted new potatoes, cabbage and a picante sauce for the pig. A bottle of sparkling wine, coffee and a choice of 6 desserts. I had the panna cotta with raspberry sauce which was light after pigging out

Wonderful restaurant good Sunday menu good service lovely family who owns the place we recommend you try, first class lunch/dinner warm welcome

The choice is limited but that's what make the food excellent. They specialise in piglet, kebabs and cod fish which allows for excellence. It's a flat rate for the whole meal irrelevant of how much you eat. Lovely staff and best salad ever!
