A village seafood house
O Rodinhas opened in 1992 and is run by Senhor Alfredo and his son João. It is on Rua Marquês de Pombal, a street in the centre of Sesimbra two minutes from the beach and the market. It is a simple house, the kind that fills up with local families at weekends.
What to order
The specialities the house puts first are fried cuttlefish, snails, fried small whelks and the francesinha, Porto's grilled sandwich. It also has a long menu of fresh shellfish, petiscos, meats and salads. It is a good option for eating well without the bill of the promenade restaurants.
Opening hours and payment
It is open from 12:30 to 22:30 without a break and closed on Wednesday, so it works for Sunday and for a late lunch after the beach. It does not accept cards: bring cash. In June, July and August it does not take phone bookings, so in summer go early or wait your turn; the rest of the year you can call +351 212 231 557.
What to order: the fried cuttlefish, which is what the house presents as its speciality, and some shellfish to share.
