A table for Sunday in Évora
Many eateries in the centre of Évora close on Sundays. O Antão does not: it opens for lunch from Wednesday to Sunday and is closed on Monday and for Tuesday lunch. It is on Rua João de Deus, the street that runs down from Praça do Giraldo towards the Alconchel gate, two minutes' walk from the square.
It is a restaurant of about 48 seats, with several rooms and an inner courtyard with an old well. It has air conditioning and takes cards. Its own website no longer works: book by phone or email.
What to expect
Traditional Alentejo and Portuguese cooking, with no published menu. Ask for the dish of the day and for the spoon dishes, which are what the Alentejo does best at lunchtime. Expect a mid-range price, neither a cheap tasca nor a white-tablecloth restaurant.
Getting there
There is no parking inside the walls. Leave the car in one of the car parks outside the old town and walk to Praça do Giraldo; from there it is a hundred metres.
What to order: the Alentejo dish of the day; if the weather is good, ask for a table in the courtyard by the well.
