    The service was excellent, attentive but not intrusive and we were given good advice on the menu. The food was spectacular and generous (we had sharing platters of Blue lobster, prawns, clams, mussels and baby squid). Juan was our main waiter but the whole team keep and eye on the guests so there is always attention if you need it. We will go again when next in Cascais

    Our server was LuLu (sp?). He was truly exceptional. Gave great recommendations, was friendly and attentive. The mussels were the best I’ve ever had. We watched the sunset and then a pod of dolphins even came by. It was a perfect evening.

    Table booked for 5 people at 14:00 and there was no fish available anymore…this is typically a fish restaurant!

    Monte Mar - CascaisOwner

    Dear Ms. Kellen, We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience caused by the unavailability of fish during your recent visit to Monte Mar Cascais. Due to an unexpectedly high volume of reservations on that particular Sunday, we regrettably ran out of our fish supply. We understand that this is a disappointing experience, especially at a seafood restaurant. Your feedback is valuable to us as we strive to improve our service. Sincerely, Monte Mar Cascais

    I've traveled by sailboat to many European port cities and have tasted fish in many excellent restaurants. Monte Mar comes out unique in the way fish is prepared. Not far from Cascais with an amazing view over the Atlantic, a friendly and professional staff, and a wide choice of fish and seafood it is definitely a "must". Access is easy, lots of parking. Best choice in the area. Enjoy!

    Monte Mar - CascaisOwner

Your comparison to other European ports is truly flattering, and we are honored to be considered unique in our approach to seafood preparation.

Just as the Portuguese navigators of old sought out new horizons and flavors, we strive to bring you the best of what the sea has to offer. We look forward to welcoming you back to Monte Mar soon.
