Taberna Típica Quarta-feira

If you have the chance, absolutely go to this place. One of the most memorable meals I’ve ever had. Make a reservation and go for it, you won’t regret it. Wish I had taken photos of all the dishes, the creativity is unlike anything I’ve seen in Portugal.

Our dinner felt like being invited into the home of an Évora local and being treated to a special occasion feast! The food is traditional in style but prepared and presented with a nod to modern restaurant culture and fine dining. And there was so much food! A fantastic sampler of so many different dishes. The staff are so very attentive, anticipating all needs and eager to convey their own sense of happiness in working there! If you can manage to get a booking, this is a must-have experience in the Alentejo.

By far one of the best diner we had in Portugal! We were curious about the concept of a restaurant having no menu and we were not disappointed. Each one of the 22+ dishes we ate that night were amazing in presentation and flavor. The service was extremely friendly. I highly recommend it! I advise you make reservations a few weeks ahead of your visit. Enjoy!

Food was very yummy and you'll get plenty. The way it works is you pay a price for the starters,($18eur pp) another price for the main courses ($14 pp)and then separately for dessert ($8pp) and also drinks. For us it was a table of 5, including 3 adults and 2 kids. We were actually quite full after the main courses already but they brought us dessert too, we could have saved some and skipped dessert honestly but everything did taste wonderful. Our bill for 5 pp appetizers, 3 for main course and 4 for dessert plus 2 water was $177 euro. Hope that helps folks figure out the cost for the meal...ps: be sure to make reservations and don't bother trying to walk in. Their slider was yummy, and the suckling pork was awesome. Enjoy the cool tiny cup drink too. So if you're too full for dessert I'd recommend to skip that. My personal favorite was all their wonderful appetizers

The is a very special restaurant in Evora with 3 generations of history and tradition. The chef chooses the courses, which there are multiple of, including a surprise course. Wine is paired perfectly with your food. Part of the courses change daily. They only have one seating for lunch and one for dinner, and it’s a small restaurant. So def book before you go. We have been here twice in 2 years and plan to go back on our next visit.

This was the most memorable and exciting meal in my heavenly, gluttonous tour of Portugal. I wasn’t sure where else I would go outside of Lisbon/Porto, but once I was able to make a reservation, I planned a whole other leg to Évora. This restaurant alone is worth planning a trip to Évora. You absolutely have to make a reservation—I saw at least 40 people get turned away at the door while I was dining, with zero walk in availability. Each course was incredibly imaginative, incredibly executed, and opened my palate and perspective to food of the Alentejo. Come extremely hungry. I was traveling alone, and although some parts would have been split for the table (like bread), the amount of food is overwhelming. Just a single menu would have been enough for four. I would almost recommend one tasting menu for two, even if it means paying for two spots. The whole bill with two glasses of wine only came to 45 euros! The first bite (a bacon wrapped sausage) with shot-sized melon puree was glorious. There was an incredible pumpkin/cheese pastry, followed by course after course of very rich, intensely-flavored food. I loved getting to try both the oxtail and the pork, but I never could have finished both! I’m not one for wasting food, but this is a place where the meal bests you—I don’t think there is a humanly way to eat everything they bring! The family behind the restaurant is so wonderful—the father/son team were the servers, and the son was thrilled to show his late grandfather on the personalized bottle of house wine. They gave a very sweet handwritten postcard of the family as a souvenir of the experience.

This place is amazing! It is a gastronomical explosion of flavor from the Alentejo region of Portugal. The chef is warm and inviting, just as the dishes served. It is a set menu, and it is intended to give you a unique experience. I highly recommend making a reservation. We went midweek and people were turned away….a good problem to have for this family owned and operated restaurant.

The hype is real, just go! We dined here a Friday night, and the food, ambience, service and drinks were magnificent. You feel, that this is a family establishment all the way through. There's stories to go with every bite, big smiles all around and warmth like in your own living room. Can't recommend this enough.
