Alentejo cooking facing the Sado
El Cristo is a restaurant of traditional Portuguese cooking in the commercial area of Tróia, next to the marina. The house comes from Elvas, on the border with Badajoz, and so it mixes two menus: fish and seafood, as befits the coast, and dishes from the inland Alentejo. It is a good choice if someone in the group prefers meat.
When it opens
According to the summer timetable published by Troia Resort, it is open Wednesday to Sunday from 12:00 to 23:00; Monday and Tuesday it is closed. Outside the beach season Tróia's hours change, so in winter call ahead on +351 265 490 705.
Getting there
From Setúbal, the Atlantic Ferries passenger catamaran (about 15 minutes) and a short walk from the quay to the commercial area. From there, the beach on the estuary side is a few minutes away.
What to order: an Alentejo dish for a change from the fish of the whole coast, or seafood to share.
