The flavors were traditional Portuguese and well presented. Thr ingredients were local and if high quality. The olive oil was divine. The wine completely stole the show, however. That was utterly spectacular and a Californian equivalent is completely out or reach for most people (would need to go to $3-500 price point to achieve that kind of complexity). It’s a tiny restaurant ao make a reservation. Staff were very pleasant and down to earth. Happy to hear feedback and very engaging. The entire experience was one to remember.

The food was quite good! A couple of bites were a bit salty (more than normal) but it was OK. Service was excellent. Thank you and we are looking forward to coming back.

Lovely restaurant, excellent innovative food. We had the cod confit and the cod in broth, both outstanding on a cold rainy winter night. Wine by the glass had outstanding choices. Staff kind and attentive. Would send friends and go back next time we are in Coimbra.

Quite small so you really need to book, we went on a Tuesday night and it was packed. The food was delicious(Portuguese with a twist, seasonal and beautifully presented. The service was fantastic, we were offered a free glass of wine and a delicious crostini - nice touch.

Lovely food and excellent friendly service. Good value for money. A little difficult to find but we’ll worth the effort. It’s only a small restaurant so booking in advance is recommended.

We enjoyed the food and service at the restaurant. We were seated in the secondary room which was decorated with many interesting objects but found the little stools to be a bit uncomfortable-we would prefer an actual chair as found in the primary dining room. Also the lighting was very bright. Would likely eat there again when back in Coimbra,

We happened upon No Tacho through a search on Google maps. We were moments away but had to wait about an hour for the restaurant to open. A reservation was available through Tripadvisor and fork so we made it to ensure a table. No Tacho exceeded our expectations. The staff was very friendly and accommodating. Made great recommendations and was complementary about our choices. The food, salad, cod soup, bison short ribs and locally sourced rice was excellent. Enjoy!

The service at No Tacho was excellent. All staff was friendly and helpful. The atmosphere was charming too. Food and wine excellent with helpful suggestions from the staff. We were very lucky to find this hidden gem in Coimbra’s old town.

Our best meal in Portugal. Fantastic vibe. Wonderful food. Very busy spot, but still very good service. Excellent wine pairing recommendations. We shared the octopus salad (excellent with a glass of beer and vinho verde), then we had the chuck steak and the cod. Exceptional experience.

The service and the waitress was really good and pleasant. The restaurant was nice and tidy. We got information and good recommendations about drinks and food we required. It was nice that restaurant provided a welcome drink (sparkling wine). The starters were quite good, but really nothing special (this is what we expect when we are going to 9.5 rating restaurant). The worst part was when we got the main dishes (octopus). One of the octopus tentacles was not fresh and even the smell was really bad. The information about not fresh food was told to our waitress and she suggested to serve a new portion. Also they apologised for situation and told that it is not usual situation. I took a new and it was good. But after everything the restaurant staff started to avoid us. When we asked for a bill, the restaurant didn’t offered us a free desert or discount (quite common practice after restaurant fault). To sum up, I would say that restaurant is good but a bit overrated and should pay attention how to solve not usual situations in the future.
