Rei da Picanha

Great place, good service, friendly atmosphere, totally recommending!

Good food, great place

Very good service, food quality/price satisfactory.

I have heard & seen many mixed reviews regarding this restaurant so I will endeavour to offer a balanced review. Please bear in mind that I am a partially disabled, mum & have accumulated years in the catering & hospitality business. Food: for a restaurant of this size they offer a varied menu of meats, fish and light meals. I am very fussy when it comes to steaks (as is my family) 1st visit I have to say it was the best steak that I have had in Portugal to date so much so that I have ordered it 3 times (veal steak) my family love Picanha and have always fought over the last one! Fish: I have ordered here at times has been very well seasoned also. Salad: very basic healthy Portuguese style simply dressed. Pudding: (I love my puddings) pleasant, fair size, fresh fruit available. Service: 1st visit very impressed with our server, polite, spoke English very well (he didn't need to) efficient and we felt nothing was too much trouble. Facilities: toilets are in desperate need of upgrades husband agreed. Access to toilet in a wheelchair would be extremely difficult of not impossible. Cleanliness of the restaurant are considering aging decor and furniture I would give 4 out of 5 but toilets 2. SUMMARY: if you want a smaller restaurant with a fairly decent all round choice that is português more than Brazilian with attentive service in a very laid back (no dress code) restaurant for a meal for no more than a couple of hours this is the place to go. Busy times you may have to wait for a table but the surrounding area is lovely (road upgrades at the moment 🧐) they do not offer on the menu a childrens portion but are happy to offer extra plates. They do not have changing facilities for babies or high chairs so for children I would say school age applies. Hope this helps. Figueira da Foz & Buarcos are beautiful so please visit and try 👌👌😁
