Description: For a fun, relaxed and stress-free night out in the Algarve we highly recommend booking yourself a table at Fuzio's in Almancil. Located just a block from the beach and only minutes from Vale de Lobo and Quinta do Lago ��� this bright and buzzy family-run Italian restaurant has a cosy dining room and two sunny terraces for al fresco dining. Run by Jos�� ��� a self-taught chef ��� and his wife Jane, Fuzio's is renowned for its fresh, tasty food and relaxed atmosphere. Locals love the prawns in piri piri garlic sauce, the fresh tomato and mozzarella garnished with basil and drizzled with olive oil, the hearty red wines and crusty fresh bread as well as the extensive menu of pasta, fish and grilled meats.

Found this place on Trip Advisor as my kids wanted Italian and took a chance based on the reviews and boy was it worth while!! My teenage kids would be finicky when it comes to food so one ordered a plain steak and the other pasta without something that was on the menu and got exactly what they ordered which... More

our first impression was positive - nice if not fancy atmosphere. the staff was welcoming and explained the menu in details. the choices were varied and imaginative, while not being so wide that you felt they couldn't make up their minds. (i do not generally feel that extensive menus mean extensively good!) the ingredients were fresh and the dishes served... More

We came across this family run restaurant by accident and found it really terrific. All the dishes were superbly cooked with a flavours that were subtle and delicious.

Visited here a few times and whilst everything has been okay it doesn't hit the heights of Nelitos or Gormet Natural, both within a three minute drive. Do some things very well but can be hit or miss at times. Overall I would classify as okay More

We have visited Fuzio`s a couple of times in the last 4 months and both times have been enjoyable. Food is excellent and the chef even prepared a main course for me which was not on the menu. Great ambience and highly recommended. A bit pricey but well worth it for a special evening. More

We have been visiting this part of Portugal for many years now and Fuzios remains one of our favourite eating places. Why, the food is always consistent in terms of its quality and taste, the service always professional and we like the atmosphere. You might pay a little more than some other places, but you know when you book a... More

Went because of good reviews Welcome was good and food was pleasant enough but one bottle of house wine and one course wasn't cheap at €40 euros a head especially charging 3 euros for a can of coke which I think is over the top .

We had passed the door many times and never managed to go but now realise what we had missed. The food was delicious, one of the best meals we had eaten for years. Rack of lamb with herb crust was the best ever and the rib eye was exceptional as well. The fish that we enjoyed was quite superb, some... More
