The first time I ate here, I ate the Terra e Mar (surf and turf) and had the mushroom risotto. We were three and couldn't finish the plate that was for 2! Two weeks later I came back, wondering was it worth the 2hr drive for a risotto, and the answer was a resounding yes! The migas de espargos are amazing and filling too. Would totally eat here again!

My boyfriend and I were both very full and satisfied. The food was exquisite and the service very friendly and helpful. Our waiter translated the entire menu for us as we didn’t understand Portuguese and the chef was very generous upon special requests. They don’t list it on the menu but the chef is very willing to make a vegan risotto. We both ordered from the special menu and could really recommend!

Before I went to Beja, I called to Intimo for some catering enquiry and the boss Jose answered all my questions patiently. After arrival, we went there for dinner. It was just amazing, we had a wonderful night. Moreover, I needed to get some catering for my boss to eat on the private jet flight back to London. Jose was so professional. He had given a lot of suggestions on catering selection with wonderful packing. He is such a gorgeous gourmet chef. He made my Beja trip more memorable. Hope I can back to visit in one day!
