    Food was OK but not on par with other restaurants in the area. Portions are quite big but there are almost no starters to choose from. Some dishes could use some vegetables and fries are not crisp at all. Staff is friendly and view is very nice, but I would not go here again.

    (Translated by Google) Dirty place, very poorly prepared food. From withered bread and soft, moldy toast ... to raw horse mackerel. I had to return the mackerel because it was raw and burnt. Sardines were not fresh at all in July. Dirty table, dirty dishes, dirty counter. I didn't have the courage to use the bathroom. Reasonable price, 10 € + VAT for 2 horse mackerels. I asked for a baby seat, and they gave it to me dirty. We are in the middle of a pandemic. But the view is beautiful, if you can get away from the restaurant. The friendly staff. But I don't recommend the place to anyone! I'm even ashamed to say that I ate there. (Original) Lugar sujo, comida muito mal confeccionada. Desde o pão murcho e torradas moles, mofadas... ao carapau cru. Tive que devolver os carapaus por estarem crus e queimados. Sardinhas não eram minimamente frescas em Julho. Mesa suja, loiça suja, balcão sujo. Não tive coragem de utilizar a casa de banho. Preço razoavel, 10€ + Iva por 2 carapaus. Pedi uma cadeirinha de bebé, e me entregaram suja. Estamos em plena pandemia. Mas a vista é linda, se você conseguir se abstrair do restaurante. O Staff simpático. Mas não recomendo o lugar à ninguem! Tenho ate vergonha de dizer que comi ali.

    Nice delicious sardines. The staff is friendly and accommodating. I asked for a salad instead of potatoes with my sardines and they said yes without any problems. Nice view of the sea

    Buying drinks @ their mostly empty cafe like on the seafront all week ! Sat down but wouldn't serve us a cappuccino or beer one evening unless we ate there as well ? Put a table mat down & quickly statched it away 🤔 Even though lots of empty 2 seated tables ! Won't go back ! Ingrates

    Book a table in advance, especially during weekends. This restaurant is literally on top of the sea, and if you reserve a table, you can ask for a seat closer to the water. The views on both sides of the table are amazing. The food is good and the service is also good. A laidback and typical Portuguese restaurant. Best of all: it’s not expensive. I recommend the grilled sea bass. Fresh fish and a beautiful view. This place is a gem.

    Great place. Probably spent over half of the nights here for dinner during our stay due to the proximity. Tried every main fish dish. Great food and really friendly and down-to-earth staff.

    This restaurant serves massive portions of deliciously seasoned fresh seafood topped with friendly service at a reasonable price with a fab sea ore. My husband loved his grilled squid and adored the steamed garlic carrots!!! He said the carrots were the best he’s ever had haha. Mango mousse was to die for as well. Would highly recommend!!

    The best place to eat fish, affordable and great taste. Cod fish and Dorade (sea ​​bream) with clams.

  • 5/5 Yihong L. 2 years ago on Google
    Just tired and saw the cocktails only 6.5€ and want to have a try. But surprisingly the fish and the cocktails are sooooooooooo gooooooooood! And the price is totally reasonable compared with other restaurants! Good location, directly facing the ocean and you can enjoy sunset and hear the waves! Highly recommended!

    Incredible. Simple and delicious food. The chef literally caught the fish we ate the night before. Beautiful view and service highly recommend

  • 2/5 Подсолнухи �. 1 year ago on Google
    Worse than average. Too much salt in food, poor decoration of dishes, dry overdone meat, waiters who don’t know how to smile. Extremely salty grilled octopus with tons of fresh onion and just couple of baked potatoes. Location is pretty good, one star added for it. I’m 16 years in restaurant business and believe me - their cooks (at least tonight) are not professionals.

  • 3/5 noinchi 1 year ago on Google
    Very tasty prawns a la guilho, other dishes (some grilled fishes and fillet) ok but not perfect. Good sangria. A bit too expensive. The service is not very friendly but ok. Beautiful view, seaside atmosphere. If you are hungry and tired, it will be ok. If you have the strength, check other places ;)

  • 5/5 Cindy M. 1 year ago on Google
    We had an amazing meal here. The first server I spoke to was a little abrupt and wasn't helpful but the other server got us a table and was very pleasant. We enjoyed our afternoon here.

  • 5/5 Michiel L. 1 year ago on Google
    Excellent location directly on the seaside promenade with ocean view. Maybe not the most sophisticated menu but incredibly fresh seafood that just tastes great. Also prices are very reasonable.

  • 5/5 Maria V. 10 months ago on Google
    We loved this place! We were looking for mussels and were very happy to find them in such a wonderful place! Everything was great and what really hit the spot was the friendly staff! Do not know your name unfortunately but the man that served our table was very smiling and polite, what an amazing experience! The food was very good, my husband ordered steak, it was soft and juicy and a big portion. My mother and I ordered mussels and prawns, it was very tasty and you could really feel the freshness of the products (which is very important to us). The view of the ocean on top of it all 🙌🏻 We are glad we found this place and will definitely be coming back next time we are in the area. Thank you so much for this place and the people who work there, everything was top 🫶🏻

  • 5/5 Marta M. 9 months ago on Google
    The best fish restaurant in the area, just right in front of the sea. We had the. Most amazing clams and a delicious grilled fish and yummy very fresh salads! Highly recommend this restaurant!

  • 1/5 Gilles 9 months ago on Google
    The restaurant is located near the beach, has a great view but due it being a passage way it’s not a nice atmosphere to sit. The bread was dry, shrimps were not fresh and the chicken breast was full of bones and fat. Complete disaster for the price we paid, expensive for Portuguese standards.

  • 5/5 Zurath k. 10 months ago on Google
    Brilliant place on the waterfront in Estoril. Unfortunately the Squid and the meat ordered wasn't upto the mark, both were overdone, and extremely chewy. There was no side salad of any sort with the meat either, which is almost usually there in most other eateries. One would expect a nice lazy afternoon meal there, however since none of our group wanted dessert, they were very quick to dispense the bill, and start laying the table again. Well, we did want to drink some more Sangria (which was nice) but we weren't given that opportunity. Cest la vie and all... I would definitely stay away from the Squid and the meat.

  • 3/5 Catherine M. 8 months ago on Google
    Great location right next to the sea and away from the road. Right next to walkway so great people watching if you like that kind of thing. Friendly good and fast service. Got swordfish and sardines. The swordfish was a disappointment as it was quite mushy but maybe was just not to our taste. Sardines were very fresh and tasty but would have preferred them to have the guts removed as needed to pick around them. Green pepper salad was excellent and had a good smoky grilled taste. House wine was also excellent. All vegetables cooked perfectly. Would return but would order different fish next time.

    (Translated by Google) It is very difficult to find a set of circumstances that make a restaurant an excellent choice, but I think Bolina seems to be a well kept secret. She was walking with my partner when I noticed that the terrace was full, which has been normal in these weeks of restrictions, but the smell of grilled cuttlefish has attracted us to look at the menu. When we saw that the price of the octopus to the lagareiro was very affordable, we decided to stop. And we don't wait long to be served. I was surprised by the large dose of octopus and the freshness of it, but it was so good that I didn't even care much for the rare parts, (I like it well sewn and crispy on the edges). But with € 35 (tip included) we ate well and with a fantastic view. We will return to taste the Dourada which looks delicious ... then I will say something about it;) (Original) É muito difícil encontrar um conjunto de circunstancias que tornem um restaurante numa excelente escolha, mas acho que o Bolina parece ser um segredo bem guardado. Esta a passear com a minha companheira quando reparei que a esplanada estava cheia, o que tem sido normal nestas semanas de restrições, mas o cheiro a chocos grelhado atraíram-nos a espreitar o menu. Quando vimos que o preço do polvo á lagareiro estava muito em conta decidimos parar. E não esperamos muito para ser servidos. Fiquei surpreendido pela dose farta de polvo e pela frescura do mesmo mas estava tão bom que nem liguei muito ás partes mal passadas, (gosto dele bem cosido e estaladiço nas extremidades). Mas com 35€ (gorjeta incluída) comemos bem e com uma vista fantástica. Voltaremos para provar a Dourada que parece deliciosa... depois digo algo sobre isso ;)

    (Translated by Google) Somewhat high price, taking advantage of the location I received an answer to my criticism, made by the owner, written in German. According to the translation I made, he says it is cheaper and the service is better than that of the neighbors. The negative reference to neighbors is in bad taste, especially when it is not true. (Original) Preço algo elevado, valendo-se da localização Recebi uma resposta à minha crítica, feita pelo dono, escrita em alemão. Pela tradução que realizei, refere que é mais barato e o serviço é melhor do que o dos vizinhos. É de mau gosto a referência negativa aos vizinhos, ainda por cima quando a mesma não é verdadeira.
