One of best Portugal dinner experiences (most of our dinners have been great). Staff made good small and large plate and wine recommendations. If we stayed longer in Abrantes, would go back. Only disappointment, we too cold to dine on porch for dinner because great views from the hill top porch. Make reservations because small dining area.

A truly hidden gem in the Portuguese country side. A Vehla brings traditional dishes to life with a slightly modern take. The veal cheeks are straight from heaven!!! We tried so many different dishes and wines over the course of nearly 4 hours and in the end we had desert and a port from Madeira that was divine! I can't recommend A Velha enough, I'm tempted to fly back to Portugal just to eat here again.

The restaurant is an old house that has been refurbished, very nicely done, maintained some of the old house charm with new. Only suggestion may be to add some table clothes or textiles to add some comfort in the winter months. The food was good, the pernil was excellent and the ovos rotos too but we ordered some crocetes which unfortunately were still frozen on the inside. We received an apology but no offer to remove from bill or provide new ones. Overall good but one simple gesture could have made the difference to deciding if we return.

Just average food. Good service. Had pork leg and bochechas. Very plain tables without cloths or even paper. Nothing special except the price.

Delighted to have found this wonderful restaurant on a last minute trip to Abrantes. Food was excellent, Portuguese recipes elevated, and with a good choice: great service in a lovely location. Outside is a terrace with stunning views, while inside is a contemporary take on a traditional Portuguese interior. Highly recommend and will be returning.

Welcoming, polite, kind, but still needs some adjustments regarding, the service from the kitchen to the client. The food could have been warmer. Its great spot, with a beautiful view. I recommend and will come back.

Nice service, good simple food, a small menu, and a selection of non-alcoholic beverages. The view is really good only on one table inside the restaurant, the rest are closed by a wall.

Lovely restaurant with nice views and enthusiastic staff. Excellent food and service. Portuguese cuisine with a fresh twist and local ingredients. Must visit if you are relatively close by and recommended even from some distance.
