Terra Nova - Alfena

Very nice staff and location. Gluten free options marked clearly on the menu although there are not many. I had Celriac Spaghetti who was very good.

I had some famous spaghetti, one of the rare GF options on the menu. Dishes available on the menu are given. But there is not so much of them.

Great place right by the water (so more expensive, too), but their food is really good. We had different types of bacalhau, all good.

We called and they were fully booked but they decided to squeeze our party of 11 in after hearing we had 3 with celiac 4 nut allergies. Mimi took great care of our party! We enjoyed the Burrata salad, Codfish Bean Stew, the Shrimp Risotto and my son had the child’s meal which was steak, fried egg and rice. He is 14 and although it was a large portion he ended up ordering 2 because we had not ate much for lunch. Everything was presented beautifully and they were over the top accommodating. Highly recommend!

I got here early as someone else suggested to secure outside seating, though, inside looked nice as well. The terrace filled up very quickly. Great views, excellent customer service and the best risotto I have ever had (I got the shrimp risotto). Risotto is pretty much my go to dish and this place really knows how to do it well. The gluten free (and dairy free) items are clearly marked on the menu they give you at your table. 5 of the 7 entrees are gf which provided a nice set of options. Some might not like the limited amount of choices but I find that when a restaurant has a small amount of items on the menu, they typically do those really well.
