What Zoe Teichmann likes about O Monte:
This restaurant may be small, but it is absolutely fantastic! The staff is incredibly friendly and the food is delicious. Every time I have visited, the staff has been extremely helpful and the food is authentic and amazing (I recommend trying the pastel de nata's, they are fresh and still warm in the morning and lunch time). I highly recommend this place. View all feedback. What Carlos Dominato doesn't like about O Monte:
I chose 1 serving of picanha £14.95 very poor service but fries came to the table and 1 serving of Alentejo pork only 3 clams had the insides the rest were shells £14.95 I won't go back to this restaurant one of the worst restaurants I've visited in 8 years living in the UK. View all feedback.

Great for breakfast, lunch or dinner. Warm and friendly. Makes you feel like your in a restaurant on holiday

This local Portuguese restaurant is a hidden gem that offers fantastic ambiance, welcoming service, and delicious, authentic food. Visitors rave about the friendly staff, reasonable prices, and generous portion sizes. The dishes are full of flavor and every visit feels like a trip to Portugal. With homemade desserts and a small deli selling Portuguese dry goods, this restaurant has quickly become a favorite for many. Whether you're a fan of Portuguese cuisine or trying it for the first time, this place comes highly recommended for a special meal out. Don't miss out on the fantastic experience of dining at this small but amazing café!.
