We got to this place by mistake. Just because we were near by. Sweet suprise!!! The owner, Pedro, hosted us like the loyal couple and we had a great lunch. He started with some tapas if meat and cheese he made himself, as well as douro wine if his own (!). Then, we moved inside, to the restaurant for a full lunch. Fresh ingredients, fish, meat and vegtables. Just perfect! Look for it, dont give up. We promise you a great experience

Need to say, if this place could get 10 stars, they would. Absolutely amazing experience. Thank you so much. The food was incredible. A true taste of local cuisine, expertly cooked. It was a very intimate experience where we got to share life experiences over good food and wine. We laughed with the owner over stories and mice experiences, made great connections and shared a passion for good music. The food. I love that we got to enjoy a “cooked like home” meal without worrying. The wine was amazing, the hospitality is unlike anything I’ve ever experienced. If you’re ever in this area. Please book a reservation, you will absolutely love it. Thank you so much for the amazing evening and I hope for the best for you and your family, and please visit us in Canada!!

Pedro, his wife and their team are so attentive. The food is sublime, only typical Portugese so a real flavour of The Douro region. V v reasonably priced, a wonderful restaurant but you MUST reserve a table, no walk-ins. Husband is coeliac and this was no problem. Thank you so much O Lagar.

Pedro is one of the nicest people we met in Portugal, and he built a place that is 100% made of passion and love to local food and good music. The food is “comfort Portuguese food” which means Pedro and his wife cook it the same day, it’s all fresh and it’s served in a size of a small mountain 😅 Most enjoyable was the special wines served trough out the night , a lot of them home made A truly lovely evening❤️

Amazing place. Family restaurant, with perfect home made food. They are focus in wood oven cooked meat, but made us perfect vegetarian meal. In a remote small village, with amazing views on the way. Go there, it is worth it!!!

The restaurant is open for reserverations only, but I can highly recommend to make a reservation and go. It's incredible. There is no fixed menu (as far as I know), but you get a comprehensive experience of the local specialties, heavy on meat and fish – not for every day, but for a special occasion, this restaurant is highly recommended! We celebrated a birthday there and the experience was outstanding. Great local ("home made") wine and port, great food, nice music and a cozy atmosphere makes this restaurant a gem.

Pedro, the owner was most gracious and the food, absolutely delicious. Every course was outstanding

The only regret was that we discovered this ABSOLUTE GEM on our last night in the area. Pedro made us realise that great service at a Portuguese restaurant is actually possible. We agreed to be taken on a culinary extravaganza by him, bringing out one local dish after another and boy did we love every one of them! We never saw a menu and he gave us a fantastic bottle of wine, so I must admit after the 8 courses (we couldn’t say no to any) I was slightly concerned about the final bill. I nearly fell off my chair when I received it! In fact, I felt compelled to leave a generous tip to feel a remote level of fairness. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!
