In Faro for the day, came across this place for lunch. We were the only ones in the restaurant as it was very early for lunch, but were welcomed with warm service. The restaurant is very bright due to a glass roof/atrium type setup. Not exactly elegant decor, but heartfelt. We shared the octopus with rice and the stewed octopus.... More

I had a delicious seafood spaghetti and my partner had a tasty and filling seafood stew with rice, a dish normally serving two but the charming waiter was happy to suggest he could have it for one.we had really fresh, well-cooked sardines as a starter, by far our favourite meal in Faro

A little gem in the heart of Faro. Whenever we are in Faro, we make a point of eating here. It's a lovely rustic place, with simple decor and the outside (jardim) seating area is sublime. The food is always fresh, well cooked and served by excellent staff. If you are looking for fine dining, then this is not for... More

friendly home atmosphere. Good food. I recommend the grilled fish. One of the waiters, owner probably, also makes a delicious starter with local cheese heated! it's gorgeous. He's very friendly and provides whatever you need!

The roof being partly open, there were a lot of annoying flies, with nothing to control them. Service was OK but hardly enthusiastic. Toilets were dirty and I only found two for what is a big...

Only had the opportunity to eat here once, but both my friend and I had a very good dinner. I think the owner himself waited on us (this was the offseason) and was very helpful.

I was not surprised to see this restaurant has already been mentioned so favourably!! In my opinion it was 'simply the best' Faro has to offer a visitor from abroad. Good service, tropical garden atmosphere, very reasonably priced and good Portuguese food (and music!) to suite any palate. A cool oasis on a hot day, perfect for a leisurely lunch... More
