Thanks to Dr Ben otherwise we would never have found it, the restaurant is located on the fourth floor of the Hotel Far, it is nice and airy with an outdoor terrace (but due to rain we ate indoors). The menu was poorly translated into English so we had to ask what certain things were. I had a cured Portuguese... More

Having spent a fruitless 30 mins looking for the restaurant we discovered it was in the Faro hotel, on fourth floor. This was the end of our food worries. Modern, surrounded by glass with a lovely view if the old town and the Ria Formosa, its a lovely place to be. It has a large sun deck, but we ate... More

Went twice to this restaurant and have lovely meals both times. Couldn't believe how reasonably priced it was the first time - thought they'd made a mistake on the bill, but second time just as good. Definitely recomment it.

Lovely food. Great selection of fish, freshly prepared. Good value. Plenty of locals eating there, which I consider a good thing.

Did not dislike anything you don't get better food than this for the price and all cooked fresh.The waiting staff are really good although English is a bit hit and miss.It is a difficult language to pronounce but the staff are very helpful and will try hard to help

In case you're searching for the restaurant, too: it is located on the fourth floor of Faro Hotel. It is a very good restaurant with a very nice view on the marina. Though, it is obviously not the cheapest restaurant in town (main plates between 10€ and 25€) and don't expect big portions.

We had lunch on the terras. The service was exellent as was the 'iberico' pig for starters and the 'codfish' as mail course. Don't be fooled by the entrance, the view on top is great. Have a nice dinner:-)

The restaurant was not easy to find. In the entrance of the hotel we could not see any signs, not before we entered the elevator in the lobby. We are happy that we went here. The food was nice, so was the atmosphere. New and nice interior and good service. There was not many people here when we had lunch.... More
