Our story
Two cooks, one small kitchen, and the food we grew up with
Cozy Restaurant opened its doors in 2023. We are a couple who met over a stove — one of us grew up folding momo in Kathmandu, the other learned the slow art of Indian gravies from a grandmother who never wrote a recipe down.
When we settled in Torres Vedras we noticed something missing: a warm, unfussy place where a plate of dal bhat, a tandoori grill and a good glass of wine could sit on the same table. So we built it ourselves, one dish at a time.
Today the menu moves between Indian classics, Nepali home cooking and a handful of fusion plates that only make sense here — Portuguese bacalhau in the tandoor, chouriço momo, pastéis perfumed with cardamom.
Cooked to order
Nothing sits under a lamp. Every curry is finished when you order it, every naan pulled fresh from the tandoor.
Spices from scratch
Whole spices are toasted and ground in our kitchen each week — the masalas are ours, not from a jar.
A family table
We know most of our guests by name. Tell us about allergies, spice levels or celebrations and we will look after you.

Eleven tables inside and on the terrace — booking ahead is the safest way to get yours.
