The best restaurants Cidade Velha

To try it is to adopt it. That seems to be the opinion of many loyal customers of this restaurant run by the affable Luis. Specialities? Colorful dishes based on grilled lobster and shrimp, served in contemporary tableware. And for vegetarians, crispy rice with vegetables presented in the form of skewers... you'd be wrong. Wooden tables set on the cobblestones, invasive plants, but not too many, the perfect setting for a delicious moment in a place heavily steeped in history.

As soon as you enter this sea-facing restaurant, you'll notice a wall of wine bottles. Indeed, it announces the slightly more sophisticated than average category at Cidade Velha. The menu features an eco-friendly wooden menu designed by Luna Arte Design, with fish and seafood in the spotlight: cod, grilled and filleted parrotfish, octopus and lobster. For a more international meal, or for the kids, there are also a dozen pizzas to choose from, ranging from the classic to the more local with local cheese. All in all, a delicious time.

Where there's a beach, there's a fisherman and fresh fish, and this restaurant proudly advertises its speciality. No less than thirteen species are on the menu, including tuna served in cube form, as well as cavala, goraz, sargonete, fatxo, esmoregal and txitxaro, to name but a few. You'll also appreciate the owner's good humor, the friendly atmosphere and the music, which varies from moment to moment. Not to mention that it's also the perfect place to enjoy a refreshing drink and relax after a visit to Cidade Velha.
