O Cortiço - Viseu

We tried the rabbit, a real Portuguese specialty, but has only small pieces of bones. The wine of the house is really not good, what is very rare in Portugal . You can find much better in Viseu.

Had a fabulous evening at this family run restaurant. Food was authentic and home cooked. Family is genuine and friendly. Casual and cozy. Popular with the locals and tourists alike. Happy we found this gem.

For our first night in Viseu we aimed to seek out a restaurant steeped in old fashioned Portugese family fare, and O Hilario didn't disappoint. Don't expect any modern flourishes on the menu, be ready for plenty of hearty fish or meat dishes with piles of pulses or lashings of rice and chips (on the same plate) but for us it was an ideal scene setter for a four centre tour over three weeks friendly service, bargain prices, uncomplicated drinks list, and a set up that probably hasn't changed in decades.

O Cortiço is not cheap, let's get this out. But you get every penny you spend. Fantastic real food you do not leave hunger, extremely nice staff and that is quite a lot it. Not much flair, only quality

Amazing place with truly authentic dishes! The food came fast. You don't have to worry about having this restaurant hungry.
