Reviews
What a wonderful restaurant! The service and food are outstanding. I have been in Portugal and Spain for four weeks, and this is the best meal I have had. The salmon was amazing! . The sangria fantastic! The portions are large, and the prices very reasonable. I will be coming back tomorrow to try the sea bass!
Absolutely amazing!!! 1000000/10 would definitely recommend! Was completely empty when I walked in but boy was I in for a treat, I ordered the grilled octopus and it was phenomenal, absolutely delicious 🤤 Service was 10/10, food took around 10-15 minutes to arrive, super fast. Local and relaxed atmosphere, traditional Portuguese food of the best quality. Come here and support them, the restaurant and owners definitely deserve it ❤️😍
Real authentic Portuguese restaurant. What more to say? The service was good, the food was really good! Incredible sardines! The biggest i've ever seen! And their Torta is very good it's like a rolled orange cake with a chocolate filling😋 overall very nice experience
O Cevierense is a great spot for a relaxed, no-pressure dinner. The vibe is laid-back and welcoming, and the team went out of their way to accommodate us even with a full dining room which set the tone right away. Service was attentive without hovering, and the prices felt very reasonable for the quality. I thoroughly enjoyed my salmon steak: simple, well-executed, and satisfying!! My husband had the paella and appreciated the prawns, clams, and mussels, though the dish as a whole didn’t quite stand out. Still, it was a solid meal overall. A dependable place to stop in when you want something easy, enjoyable, and unpretentious!
I had the grilled octopus and my mom had the cod fish with potatoes and eggs. Food was absolutely delicious. Seafood was fresh and tasty. White sangria was prepared at the moment and was great. Friendly staff and great atmosphere. If you love seafood this is your place. I would definitetly go back.
