Restaurante O Cortico - Unhais Da Serra

This beautiful little restaurant had warm and friendly staff and nicely prepared eating that was excellent and creatiw. so nice to find a place in a small town that is so good. on our next tour we will surely come back.

Do not miss this place, we were there at the weekend and liked it so much that we both eat there. we were in the nearby hotel and this is a 5 minute walk. the staff is super friendly and very proud of. the restaurant (big energy) eating is great, I recommend the: free row chicken soup (is made by a brothy at the place) cheese sweet pumpkin dessert. sounds stage? try it and let me know (pictures) the main dishes are all great!

We struggled with the restaurants in Unhais because they all seemed to be serving traditional meat or fish and when you have a vegetarian wife, this will not do. Thankfully O Cortico came to the rescue with two vegetarian options and we were off to...the races. Generous portions (of food and wine by the glass) with some interesting combinations of vegetables (thankfully making a change from the omni present and boring salad) and, would you believe, a sauce (unheard of in most Portuguese kitchens). So a thoroughly enjoyable meal and evening was had and I wish them all success for the future. However, sorry guys, but I did not like the home-made aqua com gas. A bit metallic to my taste. Lovely bright and inviting setting with no ancient souls discussing the price of wool in the corner.

We were heading to another place but it was full. O Cortiço seem a good alternative. However the place over exceed our expectations... nice service by the owners, small but good environment and fantastic food. Specially the meats, we were told they select the veal...while alive and then follow the complete path until the table... the quality is superb. And very affordable prices... worth the visit...

Highly recommended! they have mixed traditional dishes with modern techniques and everything is very good. we had the bark wellington and were completely blown away from the quality of the meal. everyone in the staff was super nice and polite, and we will definitely come back. the trip to this restaurant was for us the highlight in the trip to unhais da serra.
