Taberna do Engenho em Beja

31/10/2024: Com a qualidade dos ingredientes podia ser melhor. O serviço deixa um pouco a desejar. O restaurante podia ter outra apresentação. Belíssima garrafeira. Pode melhorar o serviço

30/09/2024: Wishing for 6 family members to dine out in Beja on a Sunday evening, choice was a little limited but we found that Intimo could take us. As I was footing the bill the booker warned that Intimo was more expensive than our original (closed) choice. The restaurant has an outside dining space but we wanted to dine inside as the evenings were now much cooler. Nothing special about the decor really albeit I was expecting something a little more up market due to price warning! Service was so so as the place did get a little busy as the evening wore on. My wife was very pleased indeed with her mushroom risotto dish, the espadarte looked good and was enjoyed, the bbq rib dish was enormous with some taken home but my coelho frito was rather underwhelming with little flavour. Generally the evening was enjoyed and having fed all of us and enjoyed 4 jugs of white sangria and a bottle of Herdade Grous white (at a good price of 20.95€!) our bill was 188€ so yes, a little expensive for 6.
