Off the beaten path, this unassuming place draws a local crowd who come for beautifully prepared, good-value dishes. Join them in flavourful Alentejan pork, figado (liver) and excellent fish dishes – especially the grilled dourada (golden bream) and fried carapauzinhos (small mackerel). The portions are huge, the wine reasonably priced, and the staff somewhat friendly and almost exclusively Portuguese-speaking.
