Small and beautiful restaurant, with great hosts. Peter and Anna were very friend and made the meal very special. Nothing was too much trouble and they made every effort to ensure the visit was the meal was the best they could offer. Please note it is a choice of two set 5 course menus for 44 euros per person.

Treated ourselves to a meal here for our 20th wedding anniversary. Fantastic hosts and all five courses superb (although the grouper wasn't quite to our own tastes!). Definitely worth a visit for a special meal as it doesn't come cheap!! Two minor niggles, atmosphere is slightly stuffy in as much as you felt like you didn't want to laugh too... More

This little restaurant is an outstanding gem truly deserving of its no 1 review slot. The time and care Ana and Peter provide for their guests (and we truly felt like guests not customers) is outstanding. A beautiful choice of food for every one of the five courses; and when my wife and I confessed we did not care for... More

This is the most beautiful restaurant with the most caring owners-everything about Dom Carlos is flawless. The food is spectacular, with so much love and thought going into creating every course right through to the most warming service. This was my second time eating here (2 years apart) and was the reason for us returning to albuferia. I honesty can't... More

From the minute we walked in, Ana and Peter made us feel very special and verywelcome. Peter explained all the menu choices, where they were sourced and when and how they were to be prepared and cooked. Ana was very helpful and attentive with the drinks and kindly recommended suitable wines for each course which enhanced the meal even more... More

We ate here this April and had a wonderful meal. The ambience and service was second to none. It was very expensive but a one time experience not to be missed

Thr planning for you dinner is just astounding. Very fresh food and interesting pairings make this a do not miss affair. This small restaurant is keyed to a Prix fixe menu, with 5 courses offered. We were not aware of this and had a fairly large late lunch. Had to leave some of each course in order to try them... More
