1. Fialho
$$$ | |The charming elderly owner, Amor Fialho, is the third generation of Fialhos to operate this popular restaurant. He has handed off daily operations to his children, Helena and Rui, but he's still present most evenings in the kitchen, and has been known to give foreign visitors a tour, pointing out photos of the former Spanish king's visit. The dining room, with a beamed ceiling and painted plates hung on its walls, is regularly packed on weekends, and reservations are essential. Fialho's renowned specialties are borrego assado (roasted lamb) and perdiz à convento da cartuxa (roast partridge with potatoes and carrots), made according to a recipe from a nearby monastery.

Specialties include lamb, pork, and game dishes, created by Carolina in the open kitchen and served with a flourish by Manuel.

6. Taberna Típica Quarta-Feira
$$ | |The street lights will guide you to this family-run tavern in the heart of the city. Exposed brick adds warmth to the intimate dining room, which can accommodate only 28 people. With no menu in sight, you have to trust the chef. The host brings you a continuous parade of dishes and keeps your wine glass brimming. While the recipes change daily, the centerpiece is always the juicy black pork.
