Gastronomy
We are informal but we like to use the best of everything, so we give preference to the best, fresh and regional products. We are unpretentious, offering a simple menu with modern, comfortable and comforting food, cooked in the fire - whether in our wood oven or in the fireplace. We want you to sit down with us - either at the table or at the counter - and let this be a moment of sharing.
À TERRA is not just a Restaurant, it’s a way of life. A time to stop and enjoy - the flavours, the fresh products that we use, the experience.
PRIVATE gastronomic experience.
Let yourself be immersed in this private gastronomic journey exclusively created for you by Chef Dárcio Henriques.
