Nestled in the charming village of Soajo, North Portugal, this traditional restaurant is a hidden gem that encapsulates the essence of the region. The rich and authentic Portuguese cuisine, with quality home made produce. A visit here is a delicious and cultural treat, offering a taste of traditional Portugal and the enchantment of this picturesque village.

Great Food and Service. Enjoyed this Portuguese cuisine. If in the neighborhood of Soajo I would highely recommend to stop here and have some traditional food.

I had the best experience at Saber ao Borralho. Not only is the restaurant a welcoming, cute, cozy, family-owned business, it is very well located and the surrounding area is absolutely beautiful. As a vegetarian, I was so happy to find various delicious options including the couvert, soup, veggie burger, veggies, and rice and beans! I recommend trying the cheesecake, it is so creamy with homemade fig jam. Absolute gem in Soajo.

Absolute gem in Soajo. The food is perfect. High quality and very well made. Went here for diner and had grelhada mista. All meats were superb. Everything was superb! I absolutely recommend this place. I will definitely will be back!!

One of the best steak I’ve ever head in my life. House wine and dessert was also delicious. Owner was really sympathetic and funny, he explained everything very well. Be aware of that portions are HUGE. He said that that’s how they eat on north 😅

What an amazing experience and service. It is local food, meat based, and it is delicious. We had the local beef for two people—it was served with a rice dish that was fantastic and veggies. Best beef ever. Our server (also the owner) was very friendly, suggested a fantastic wine pairing for our meal, also excellent to chat with. The restaurant is very nice, great ambiance. They speak Portuguese, French, and English that we know of. A wonderful way to end the day after a long day at the park. Quick note—they only accept cash, no credit cards.

great cachena steak and enormous portions, I thought I was hungry until I saw the serving size haha

the owner is very friendly and speaks perfect English which was very helpful. they even have an English menu, which I appreciate a lot.

the restaurant itself has actual table clothes, serene ambiance and lovely garden with great views. it was a perfect dinner to end the day in the region

What a lovely evening and delicious meal we had at Saber so Borralho. The owner is kind, speaks perfect English, and WOW is the food wonderful! The traditional beef, rice snd veggies were exceptional as was the fig “cheesecake” - a light version of what we’d typically call cheese cake. If you are in the area - or even if you’re not it’s worth a special trip - don’t miss dining here!

Best carne asada no forno I ever tried in Portugal! Excellent rice as well. Wonderful feeling-at-home atmosphere and very professional staff.

The staff here is extremelly welcoming. All the food is local both the recipe and products. I advise the Cachena steak (local beef cattle with very distinguished flavour). For desert the figs cheese cake. The figs come from the owner own garden. Don't forget to taste vino verse.

Excellent food. Cachena is great - comes with veggies, potato and an amazing rice with meat and cabbage and beans.
Food arrived quickly.
Ponte de Lima Tinto verde cold is also great!

I came here from America I give this place over five stars!!!!! The meat was deliciously tender and just perfect. Would definitely recommend this place to anybody. Great atmosphere . Owner is a really great guy.

Very good, local restaurant. Super nice and kind service. Dinner was amazing, the cachena in the oven is fabulous, slowly cooked over 5 hours. Definitely highly recommended.

Had the cod fish and it was delicious! Perfectly seasoned with some onion and egg on top. Would recommend this restaurant

Fantastic! Lovely place and owner!
I recommend the "Arroz de Feijão Terrestre" and the "cachena" steak. For desert you should go for the fig cheesecake.

Ate here with friends on a lunch time. A characterful and atmospheric restaurant located in a quaint little mountain village. Food was exceptional and the best we had in our 1 week Portugal trip. Add to this excellent wine at 10 euro a bottle and impeccable service, this is a must visit restaurant when in the area!!

This restaurant makes some of the best food I've ever had. Very authentic Portuguese cuisine made by a trained chef who has been working in the industry for over 15 years. If you find yourself in the area, this is a must. Highly recommend!

Amazing meal and excellent service! Would highly recommend if you’re in the area. My husband and I split the recommended local steak with rice, potatoes and vegetables. It was very good portions and delicious! We also had the house wine, and desserts which were homemade and so good!

Exceptional local beef (cachena) that melts in the mouth. Our advice? Allow the owner to tell you what to eat - I promise he knows better than you do and also matched a beautiful local wine. Best steak I have ever had.

A must visit if you are in Soajo. Some of ter best authentic Portuguese cuisine we’ve had in Portugal. Peter and his wife care a lot about the food and making you feel welcome. We feel like we’re dining with family whenever we visit. The Cachena dish is great and the desserts are essential!
