Good value for money Wir sind hier „gestrandet“, weil die anderen Restaurants bis zum letzten Platz voll waren. Hier waren wir zuerst die Einzigen. Draussen sehr angenehm - was viele andere Restaurants nicht bieten können. Insgesamt etwas schmuddelig. Unser Essen (Entrecôte) kam schön serviert auf grossen Tontellern. Das Fleisch eher zäh, die Frites aus der Tüte. Dennoch ok. Auf das Dessert haben wir gerne verzichtet. Der Café kommt aus Spanien. Ob andere Restaurants in der Nähe besser sind, können wir nicht beurteilen, aber wir würden sicher nicht mehr hierher kommen. Der Service, vermutlich der Chef, war ok, aber mit noch viel Luft nach oben. Nice young waiter, nice portuguese pork with rice and chips, great coffee.... some dark dressed & strange locals made me feel a bit "inseguro" but finally all good Large portions and amazingly good local cheese served with olives and bread as a free starter but the food quality was fairly average. My son had the house steak which was quite tough and we had to ask for a better knife to cut it with. The house chicken was good but no vegetables/salad to accompany it. Estuvimos comiendo un día con mucha afluencia de visitantes en la ciudad. El servicio fue de regular a mal. Estuvimos esperando la bebida casi 20 minutos. Luego la espera compensó, los platos que pedimos eran abundantes y estaban ricos. Recomiendo el bacalao dorado. Este restaurante suele ser la opción cuando los "otros" están llenos. Pero sin duda es buena opción . Recomendado We had to wait 30 minutes for our restaurant nearby to open and feeling thirsty, a beer was in order! Fortunately, we found Onofre and we decided to sit inside, ordering two 33cl glasses of the standard draught beer, a size up from the Imperial. Not knowing what I had in my wallet to pay, I took all the coins out and headed to the counter with all my coins presented in my hand and asked to pay. How much? I was told 4 euros!! I never really argued it when really I normally would have done. We left the bar and I was trying to look for the price list of the drinks on the wall but never saw it. I felt rather annoyed having been taken for a tourist in all the bad sense of the word! I just felt more annoyed and robbed with a price that would have been more normal in Lisbon. We do live in Alentejo and we have never paid 2 euros for 33cl. That bar had nothing special at all, even less the decor. Speaking in English between us and showing a handful of coins was obviously license for the barman to charge me extra! Shame on him, I never thought I would have to now start thinking of such behaviour in a café in Portugal. We later stopped in another place for an afternoon beer and I asked the barman whether 4 euros was an OK price for what we had at Onofre, his reply was a grimace on his face and he told me that the barman was pushing it! I guess navigating smaller cities in Europe regarding food is part of the fun. I completely understand the closures at 3 pm / 330pm. But when you tell me you will check the kitchen and completely ignore me for 15mins while walking past me 5 different times - well that’s interesting service. My parents / grandparents come from Elvas. So this is home to me. To be treated like I’m some non Spanish (yes I went there as I saw you treat Spanish people better) - well that is ignorant. By the way - Canadians (with Portuguese backgrounds because we of all people understand the struggle of our patriots ) would have tipped 20% - as we do back home. Perhaps next time - know your clientele. On my next visit to Elvas - avoiding this place based on service alone. The waiter was cutting the bread with dirty hands after sticking his fingers in dirty glasses. Rude and bad customer service Bem, passo a explicar que este restaurante nem o meu cão comeria uma sobremesa. Os ovos estrelados estavam torrados parecia uma autentica anêmona. O bacalhau estava salgado como a pilha. A suposta picanha era bifes cheios de nervo temperados com cabelo como pode se ver nas fotos. O pão que é das coisas que se mantem frescas diariamente, aquele era tudo menos isso. E com isto era o encerramento do «Restaurante» se podemos assim chamar. Espero que a ASAE faça o seu trabalho. Viémos para almoçar mas a nossa experiência não foi a mais feliz. Pedimos migas à alentejana para os dois. Prestáveis, o serviço foi rápido na resposta e as migas chegaram bem apresentadas em prato de barro. Saborosas, as migas pecavam contudo por algum excesso de gordura mas, acima de tudo, tinham muito mais ossos do que carne (ver foto). Dececionante! O facto de terem televisão e rádio ligados em simultâneo em nada favorece a atmosfera do estabelecimento e um ambiente descontraído para uma refeição. A qualidade da refeição não justificou a conta final a pagar. Por poucos mais euros, tivemos uma refeição no dia anterior num outro restaurante próximo que ficou nos antípodas desta em todas as áreas.
