About

Casa Minhota serves authentic Portuguese cuisine centered on fresh seafood and traditional tapas. Guests encounter a menu featuring salt cod prepared in multiple regional styles alongside grilled sardines and succulent octopus drizzled in high-quality olive oil. Small plates focus on bold flavors including spicy chorizo, garlic-heavy shrimp, and rich bean stews that characterize the culinary traditions of northern Portugal. The kitchen emphasizes ingredient integrity through direct heat cooking methods that honor coastal cooking techniques. Simple preparation allows the natural essence of shellfish and Atlantic fish to remain the primary focus of every dish. The environment prioritizes functional simplicity, ensuring that the focus remains entirely on the robust flavor profiles and authentic textures found in traditional Iberian fare.

Les serveurs sont pressés malgré le faible achalandage & aucun sourire de leur part.

Décontractée, familiale, agréable & portions généreuses. Les toilettes impeccables. Si trop achalandé ça peut être un peu trop brillant pour les enfants & les personnes sensibles aux bruits.

This is not my first visit at Casa Mignota. I always order the Porco Alentejana. This is my first time of being disappointed with my meal. This plate is not normally made with broccoli & peppers. It did not tastes the same
