Restaurante Avis — Restaurant in Platô

Avoid at all cost. Food took two hours and arrived cold. Some of us didn’t get food until others have finished theirs. Had to ask for the bill 3 times. Eventually decided I had enough and calculated my part of the bill and went over to give them the money. Thar prompted them to finally bring out the bill. Some food was still arriving at that point despite the fact we we’re getting ready to go. I’m pretty sure they charged us for it, but we all just wanted to go to bed and didn’t feel like arguing with the staff (it was close to 11pm by that point).

This was comfortably the worst of the restaurants on the plateau in Praia that we tried. There's far better food to be had elsewhere in Praia. We waited more than two hours for the food which was poor when it arrived. My fish was bland and barely warm. The portion was small and the vegetables I ordered didn't show up. That wasn't the only issue with the order - there were multiple mistakes amongst the 15 of us. Other dishes missed completely or the wrong variant provided. In fairness the cocktails I ordered were good. The service was friendly although the lack of language skills (English, French or Spanish) made life difficult when things started to go wrong. All in all...

Appallingly slow service and average food. We were a large group that booked ahead to ensure they were prepared for our 8pm arrival. We were aware of other reviews saying service was bad but post Xmas day we had trouble finding other options for our group so had to chance it. Unfortunately those reviews were accurate. It took a little while to order but then we waited … and waited … and waited. They delivered some meals but not others. And our last meal for the group was delivered 2 hours later. The waiters really didn’t seem to care. Food was edible but not great. And we saw other smaller tables around us also waiting an age. I’d avoid...
