"The Sintra Terrace is such a nice place! In the historic centre, with a beautiful view, very friendly staff and really good food! We ordered the sirloin strips and pork tenderloin and they were so good! Perfectly cooked and nicely presented. When in Sintra, go to the Terrace!"
Brian Martel
"Really enjoyed our experience here. A bright and colourful decor made it inviting. The view was amazing and the food delicious. We had the cod fritters and pasta. Our server was very friendly and accommodating as we were a bit pressed for time. Definitely worth the visit. Loved that it was not on a main street. A perfect end to our day in Sintra."
Christine Gaucher
"You want to eat with a view? This is a good place. Probably there will be a queue to enter it, as it is a small place.
The octopus was great, tender and nicely seasoned. The Caesar's salad wasn’t that good, but maybe it’s just my taste.
The octopus salad and the cod cakes were okay.
The staff were friendly and very attentive."

The Best Sintra Restaurants
Sintra Terrace is a modest, tucked away tapas bar with pretty views. Not only did we enjoy the views but we felt that the complimentary bread was substantial as were the portions of the tapas. We found the service to be prompt, unlike the nearby Villa 6 which had very good reviews.

We had cream of carrot soup (delicious) and shared a delicious risotto main dish. We want to go back for the pork tenderloin that another table ordered.
