Grandma's food!!! and other Ericeira, Portugal Restaurant Reviews

Restaurant Name: Restaurante America

If you are looking for a nice place to eat in VERY TOURISTY Ericeira, go to America. Restaurant is owned by two older people. Grandma is cooking and grandpa is serving. Their kids and grandkids are coming for dinner every night. Other than that, the restaurant is TOURIST FREE!!!! My favorite!!!
Food is great. It is typical Portugeese food. I guess she cooks all the stuff her family loves.
Portions are really big, especially salads, they are huge and delicious.
Owners are the most friendly and down to earth people you can meet traveling.

Favorite Dish: Everything was our favorite. There was nothing that we did not like there.
Fish stew with rice was served in the pot it was cooked in - FANTASTIC!!
On the end of every dinner we got a glass of porto.
Check out our pictures!!!

Restaurant Name: Marisqueira Mar a Vista

nice place to stop for quick lunch or dinner.

It is quite expensive, and owner speaks English too well (wonder where the prices came from).

There is plenty of local people eating....they are either very rich or....the prices are different for them.

The food is great, but more expensive than in good restaurant in New York.
