Classically high standard service in a traditional Portuguese restaurant with top quality food and wine. Not the cheapest, but amongst the best of its kind. This restaurant is an institution in Cascais, a reputation richly deserved. I especially recommend the lulas (squid), dressed crab, pan-fried sole, and chocolate mousse.

We had squid and prawn on a spit and monkfish on a spit, really fresh and delicious. One criticism, we were served an excessive amount of bread! When we arrived there was a basket of bread and butter on the table and then another plate of buttered toast arrived, TOO MUCH BREAD, otherwise the meal was fine and the wine delicious.

Traditional Portuguese cuisine in a nice but dated setting. Very professional and attentive service. Wine list very extensive. Prices higher than average in the area but portions are generous. For a special occasion or if you just want to splurge on a very good meal, this is a good choice.

We booked the restaurant for my dad’s 70th birthday and I am so happy we did. The service and the food is the best in Cascais. We left with one very happy birthday boy. Thank you to the team for making it so special. We will be back.

What a wonderful place! Great food, a lovely park side ambience, and great service by a jovial, efficient staff. Recently enjoyed my birthday dinner there and then decided to return for my last dinner in Cascais.

Our 16 people party received a fantastic welcome and attention from the waiters. Fresh fish prepared for most of us, and some had meat. Amazing experience downtown Cascais, which I recommend to take family, friends or for a business meal.

Beautiful old world charm! Staff were a delight (older in the seen it all done it all - can make your evening seamless). Food was stunning, we gorged on gooie warm cheese, perfectly cooked chateaubriand and the freshest delicate hand made skinny chips. Wine menu is impressive and reasonably priced. I am gluten free and the ‘special toast for you’ was some of the best I ever eaten. The perfect last meal in the culinary delight that is Cascais.

The food was excellent - the best I had in Lisbon. The waiter was very knowledgeable and gave us great service.

Great food, excellent service, really nice waiting staff. Prices were a bit too high compared to other places we have dined in. I would gladly go back, though, simply because of the wait staff - just the nicest, friendliest people.

The food was nice but pricey but was disappointed that a small plate of ham was put on the table with the bread and olives and was charged for ham 15,euro plus cover charge 6.60 euros they didn't make us aware of this charged .

This was the best restaurant we ate at during our two-week trip to Ireland and Portugal. The food was amazing. The grilled squid and shrimp was fresh and had a nice char on it. The white wine, recommended by the waiter, was light and crisp, just the way I like it. And the service was very attentive without being intrusive. It was a meal I won't soon forget!

This place was recommended to us by my brother and his wife as they had previously visited. It's an unassuming spot with a casual vibe and excellent food. Everything we tried was delicious - shrimp in garlic oil, octopus, cod and a fish stew. Highly recommend checking this place out if you're in the area.

This is our go-to restaurant in Cascais. They never fail to provide excellent food, service, and value for money. I can’t recommend it more highly.

Simple food cooked and presented very well. Very engaging and friendly staff. It was quite early and not full so lacked some ambiance but everything else was spot on!

Once again, we had an excellent meal and service at Visconde da Luz. We often bring visitors there, and to a person they are delighted by both the quality of the food, and the outstanding hospitality that the staff consistently brings to its guests. Their cataplana is magnificent, truly world class. I guarantee that you’ll want to return after having dined there once.

We had a fantastic lunch yesterday! First time after years of saying we were going to try it. Amêijoas and robalo were perfectly prepared as you would expect. Service by Marco was also perfect. Unexpected was the dessert wine list with many old bottles of vintage and colheita ports.

Excellent food, outstanding attention. Friendly and professional staff. We always come back to this traditional restaurant in Cascais centre

This restaurant was highly recommended by good friends whose taste we trust. We visited Cascais, and made straight for the restaurant specifically for the sea bass baked in sea salt. It was not only the best baked fish I have ever had (and that is saying a lot), the fish was fluffy and moist, but the service and ambiance were amazing. Classically Portuguese!
