Search for Authentic Portuguese Food🇵🇹 Estoril Edition🫡

Hello Amigas and Amigos in this beautiful day🫡 Today my wife and I are on a serious mission… to find an authentic Portuguese restaurant around Cascais🇵🇹 Lately it feels like every place turns into a tourist spot — pretty menus, modern interiors, but where is that real Portuguese feeling? So we decided to test a place Internet recommended: Churrasqueira Do Viveiro in Estoril👀 And… well… opinions were divided 😂 The place looked nice, modern, lively… but maybe a little too polished for that old-school Portuguese tasca feeling we were hunting for. On the menu: 🥣 Feijão Verde Soup — green bean soup to start. Warm, comforting, simple in the best way. No fireworks, but honestly very tasty and exactly what soup should be in Portugal. 🍖 Osso Buco — and wow… this one surprised us. Rich, slow-cooked, super tender, full of flavor. We were enjoying it so much… until we realized it’s actually Italian 🤣 Not exactly helping our Portuguese authenticity quest… but delicious is delicious. 🥩 Costeleta de Novilho— this one… hmm. Not our favorite. A bit too chewy and maybe I made a tactical mistake and let it cool down before finishing it(well I didn't finish it)😅 Sometimes food wins, sometimes you lose. 🍋 Lemon Mousse — fresh, creamy, easy victory. 🍫 Chocolate Mousse — I don’t want to start drama… but this one was a complete miss here😂 ✨ Overall? Interesting place. Good food moments, some confusing moments… but not quite that authentic Portuguese experience we were searching for. 👉 Verdict: • Feijão Verde Soup — simple and tasty 👍 • Osso Buco — absolute winner (even if Italy stole the show 🇮🇹😂) • Costeleta de Novilho — 50/50, don't know if it should be like that🤷‍♂️ • Lemon Mousse — approved 🍋 • Chocolate Mousse — mission failed 🍫🤣 Overall score: 50/50 — would I come back? Maybe. Did we find authentic Portugal? Not yet. So the search continues 🫡 If you know hidden local gems around Cascais / Estoril where Portuguese people actually go — leave your recommendations below👇 We want proper Portuguese vibes, traditional food, and places that still feel local.
