Floor-to-ceiling windows and minimalist design set the tone for one of Figueira da Foz’s most refined dining spots, inside the slick, modern center for performing arts. This Michelin-recommended restaurant puts a creative spin on Portuguese classics, from smoky rissóis to silky sponge cake. Local ingredients take center stage on a menu that’s both elegant and approachable, making it a favorite for a special lunch or laid-back dinner.
In the peaceful village of Paião, 10 km (6 miles) south of Figueira da Foz, this restaurant, named after its past as a tannery, has been a local institution for over 20 years. The menu features regional specialties, including the famous sopa da pedra (a hearty meat and vegetable soup). Grilled pork and veal on a spit are also standouts. Cozy up in the welcoming dining room during winter, or enjoy a meal on the patio when the sun shines.
