Pizzaria Gordinni Marina Cascais

Restaurant

😠 This was not only the worst meal I ate in Portugal, but possibly the worst restaurant meal of my life. The pizza tasted like microwaved school cafeteria food. The salad was barely edible with entirely canned toppings and a horrible store bought dressing. The only hope I have for this place is that I...

    This was not only the worst meal I ate in Portugal, but possibly the worst restaurant meal of my life. The pizza tasted like microwaved school cafeteria food. The salad was barely edible with entirely canned toppings and a horrible store bought dressing. The only hope I have for this place is that I don’t end up with food poisoning tomorrow. Very overpriced even if it had been decent.

    Food - 4 Service 0+ (plus for smile of a waiter). Missed one plate, all starters (the olives and bread etc) come after the main food. 3 times asked for a bill, in the end paid inside🤦‍♀️after 40 minutes waiting. Never seen our waiter. Food was strong 4, fresh but nothing special. Location is the best of the place. Not recommended.

    Very good grilled salmon, soft and fresh. Also grilled vegetables were tasty. I hope little more potatoes on the side. The lasagne was creamy and delicious.

    Located overlooking the yacht marina, is this pleasant Italian restaurant. It has a wide variety of veg and non-veg options across all the courses from starters to mains and desserts. Overall, a good place for pizza and pasta. Prices were reasonable, wine from €12-25 a bottle, starters around €3-8, and mains starting from €10.

    I can't believe how there are only tiny plastic bottles in this place. Is it to charge more for water? Because I would rather not buy it at all. It could have more vegetarian options.. and I didn't notice any vegan option on the menu. The pizzas have very thin crust, the layer of cheese is thicker than the crust. The sushi is very good, and I would love more vegetarian options of sushi. Some of them had a lot of fish and the ones with little fish and vegetables were better. The staff even though they're friendly, it's too slow and not efficient.

    Table reserved, we arrived on time no problem so far...then everything went wrong. It took 20 minutes for someone to ask us about drinks then maybe another half an hour before someone brought us the drinks and then another 20 minutes for another waiter to ask us what we would like to eat. Food was good no doubt about that but it took us more than three hours and five different waiters to have dinner I would say that's not bad service it's very very bad. Diogo was the only waiter that realised what was going on and tried is best to help. Definitely a place to avoid as long as I remember

    Food was okay, not amazing just okay! It is definitely seems like this is a tourist trap. I would have given them more stars but the staff need some training in manors and how to serve people. It seems that they are inconvenienced when you actually ask for something. We sent our food back as it arrived cold. In my three weeks of being in Portugal this has possibly been my worst experience. Pity as in 2021 I was here and it was amazing

    Restaurant located in nice Cascais Marina. Offers decent food. However, the service is disappointing. Very rude older lady that seated us at the table was giving the impression like we were not wanted there, forgot some basics for the table (maybe on purpose) and spoke in very unwelcoming tone. We finished the main course and headed home without desert or coffee.

    The restaurant was not busy when we sat down, perhaps five tables occupied with couples. Despite this and our asking about our order, we waited nearly 45 minutes for our main meal, which finally arrived after three groups who sat down after us were served their main meals. The salmon and sea bass were overcooked (burnt in parts) although the mixed vegetables were okay. It was only after we left our meals unfinished that the staff started to apologize for the delay. They reduced the bill by not charging for the two small beers and one starter, items that were okay. I would not recommend this restaurant.

    Not great. Service was nice. I've been a couple times and what really puts me off is the quality of the food. Not every dish is poor quality, the sushi isn't bad for example. But what truly bothers me is they're putting 7€ plates of food in front of us and then charging 18-29€. I'm all for markup in order to make a profit but this is just daylight robbery. Don't go, just don't go. That's my advice.

    Sitting outside we frequently got smells of blocked drains. Our pasta was OK. The service was poor, sometimes rude Looking around there were many unfinished meals. There’s better restaurants everywhere in Cascais, including just next door

    The food was absolutely delicious, our waitress was fantastic and the atmosphere was relaxed. We ate a variety of dishes between the ten of us and every single one of us raved about what we had chosen. There is something for everyone-fish, pizza, pasta, curry and the most amazing goats cheese salad that I have ever eaten. Thank you to all the staff at Gordinni-I have already recommended you to friends.

    Good pizza, just like they serve in Italy. The wine selection is good too.

  • 1/5 Gabriella H. 1 year ago on Google
    Extremely long wait to got drinks and a longer wait for food and when it came it was flavourless, party of 6 and no one enjoyed their meal. Fish was stone cold. Staff were unapologetic about the delay and after reminding a staff member about missing drinks they refused to speak to us going forwards actively ignoring us when we were thanking them, tables around us had worse experiences. Do not advise

    Restaurant in the Marina selling Italian food. Waited 45 minutes for sushi starter. When we queried it had been lost in the kitchen! Waitress who then looked after us was very good. Food was very good. I think a problem Europe wise, short staffed and it unfortunately showed.

    Poorer experience ever! What appeared to be a 2 Michelin star restaurant, was just appearance. We arrived at the 12:15pm and it was nearly empty with only 3 tables (less than 12 people in total)… so it took about 10 minutes for them to take our order, and another 10+ for the drinks. We placed the order, a risotto a burger gourmet and some Brazilian steak (nothing fancy)…! We waited almost 2h to get the order and one of the orders came back wrong. In fact, they took the order to another customers table which had just arrived. At the end it was already full packed with people and guess what, the service just got worse. I understand that the waitress had no part in this or whatsoever… it was all wrong at the kitchen. Not going back again.

😐 So, firstly, the food here was very good! The starters were very tasty and huge portions (so beware unless you're really hungry), and the pizzas we had were delicious. And if you have a table by the window facing the sea, the view is lovely. However... overall experience was soured by poor service....

👍👍 Perfection. Spider crab was very well cooked, and was cut and set to eat with least effort. Steamed octopus was so tender and seafood rice had rich taste. And all the foods went so well with green wine. Wish I could visit again.
