A Tasquinha

Top choice in Nazaré


This exceptionally friendly family affair has been running for 50-plus years, serving high-quality seafood in a pair of snug but prettily tiled dining rooms. Solo travellers delight: arroz de marisco (shellfish rice) for one person (€17.50)!

Expect queues on summer nights. However many people there are, the delightful owners always try and squeeze you in, even if it's at someone else's table! Good value.
