  • 1. Volta & Meia

    $

    The brilliant red walls and hand-painted murals might catch your eye, but the savory pies will make you want to stay. That includes a delectable range of "hidden pies" whose ingredients are wrapped like a gift parcel in seasoned pastry crust. Try the pie with cod and cabbage, or with local sausage, cheese, and spinach.

    This waterfront eatery has seafood with a sea view: expect everything from shrimp and crab to mussels to the fish of the day. It's a touristy spot, but the old-fashioned service from the jovial staff gives the place an authentic flavor.

  • 4. O Peleiro

    $$

    In the peaceful, rather than picturesque, village of Paião, 10 km (6 miles) south of Figueira da Foz, this restaurant decorated with animal skins was once a tannery, and that's what the name means. An institution for more than 20 years, the menu is heavy on regional specialties, including a famously good sopa da pedra (vegetable and meat soup). Grilled pork and veal on a spit are also excellent. Cozy up in the handsome dining room in winter, or take a seat on the patio when the sun shines.
