Dom Pedro I

Charming eatery with 6-8 outdoor tables tucked away in a quiet corner surrounded by high walls. Young friendly staff with smiles on their faces.

I arrived in Cascais around 730 pm drenched and hungry after a solo 24k coastal run from Belém. Dom Pedro on Google Map immediately caught my attention with its many stars and hundreds of reviews.

I went straight for the ultimate umami dish “Arroz de Polvo”, i.e. rice with octopus. And mamma mia, umami tsunami that was!

Washed down with one pint of Portugal’s ubiquitous Caneca beer. Life is all good afterwards!

This great place is tucked away, off the beaten path where you’ll find the best food in town. Rodolfo, was excellent, the pride he has for his restaurant is evident in every way. The staff is friendly, as they treat their guests like family. My wife & I went 2 nights in a row bc the food and service were that good. Grilled Octopus is not to be missed. Get there early! Went back the 2nd night for it as it sold out the 1st night we were there. Make a reservation! The desserts are worth saving room for as well. Prices are more than reasonable for the flavor and quality this restaurant delivers. We had a bottle of wine with dinner as well. This should be the only 5 star restaurant in town! Thank you for 2 great evenings!

Loved this place! Very delicious food and helpful staff. No issues if you don't speak Portuguese. The atmosphere is very nice there.

This was out of this world. Very serious about what they do. You can quickly realize that from interacting with them about eg how to cook the dish etc. We had tuna steak, which was already good, but on request they gave us extra fried potatoes and garlic mayo. I guess the other dishes are good too. Book a table in advance, it is small. And it is in a separate class…

Wow get away from the tourist tat and treat yourself to an original Portuguese experience.
Great service from the owner and his staff food was excellent and authentic. Go up the ally in between Paul's and the Meusem its a hidden gem you won't regret it ✨ 😉

A very pleasant and atmospheric place. Delicious food and homemade wine. The tuna steak was perfect. We had to go 2 times to try everything =). Very friendly and welcoming waiter Rudolfo. Recommend!

One of the best restaurants where I have eaten! Tuna steak was amazing (tasty and soft like butter) and manager was friendly and gentle, also prices were very good!
Absolutely a place to try!

As a person who doesn’t usually eat fish, this place has changed me. Very incredible and fresh fish and absolutely amazing service.

The best restaurant ever. If I could give 6 stars, I would. Everything was amazing and since I ate there in the summer, I’m dreaming about this place. The staff is super friendly and helpful. I highly recommend octopus, small steak and shrimps. It’s the most memorable place from my trip to Portugal. Can’t wait to be back!

Amazing food. Iam just in love with the grilled codfish (Bacalhau) , the homemade tart and the great service.
I definitely recommend this place ❤

Excellent service. Comfortable atmosphere. Great place to eat traditional portuguese food.

Very special Picanha, all dishes are very delicious...compliments to Rodolfo!!!!

Second Review : Another nice evening at Rodolfo's ... also excellent fish after trying the meat two days ago ... see you next year !!!...thanks for everything...it's always a pleasure

Friendly service (English speaking) with fresh and tasty food. Fantastic value for money, with a wide variety of choice. Avoid the tourist traps and come here!

The tuna steak was the best I've had in a few years, so I had to give the grilled prawns a go too, lovely. Thank you.

I spent 10 days in Portugal and had the best octopus here! It’s just perfect, the taste, size of the portion, balance of the ingredients. I loved the fried fish as well, we had to order two for the table. Service is great and the owner is a cool guy. Totally recommended

Amazing experience! Waiters are very nice and speak multiple languages fluently. Food is very good, whether it's fish or meat, it's gourmet but cheap, I recommend strongly!

This place is a hidden gem. Tucked away in a little alley behind the main square, room for around 15 lucky people, this restaurant will be one the highlights of your visit to Cascais. The waiter was super friendly and I would definitely come back again.

Excellent service and delicious food! We recommend the Dorado Fish and Bacalao Dorado!

Lovely restaurant. Cosy and welcoming, great service and seafood rice.

Fantastic! Fresh seafood with friendly staff.
