Characterized by an intense fishing activity since time immemorial, it is therefore not strange that Setúbal’s gastronomy is based on fish, shellfish and marine mollusks. Fried squid is the most famous dish, and the one that brings more visitors to the region. But eels, either fried or in a stew, the fish caldeiradas stews and the rice dishes, garnished with either fish or seafood, also make a regular presence in both popular taverns, as well as in more sophisticated establishments. And if Setúbal is the Land of Fish – having even been granted a corresponding trademark – it is also the land of the Moscatel, a very unique wine, and also an iconic symbol of this region. To taste all of this, it is very worthwhile to make a reservation at one of the twenty restaurants that we have selected for you.
