A traditional family-run restaurant, complete with exposed stone walls, blue ceramic tiles and framed pictures, O'Flor is a cut above many similar-looking places. Alongside boar, lamb and pork cooked in various ways, it serves some excellent fish dishes, including a wonderful fried bacalhau (dried salt-cod).
