Tourists beware: Quantity doesn’t equal quality. Don’t let the deceptive marketing name or prices fool you, this is just a local boozer where the cook won’t make eye-contact probably because she’s too ashamed about what she just heated up for you. Wait to get a real cataplana from a better restaurant along a coastal town. Posted after owner’s response: Yes, you were friendly and the service was fast and the quantity of food a lot, but the food quality was very low, there was imitation seafood to bulk up the quantity of the cataplana and the rest was from frozen. Contrary to your post, no-one else was eating everyone else was drinking, so I didn’t compare my meal with any other customers. You didn’t ask first about the couvert (bread & olives) which is illegal, and the olives were awful. You also didn’t mention before ordering that you were cash-only with no bank-card option, despite your menu being technological (QR code only). I suggest you compare yourself with your neighbouring restaurants as to why you are...

First we decided to go here because we wanted to try some of the tradicional Portuguese food.

The restaurant looks like it is family owned and that can be felt in the expirience itself.

The waiter was very helpful and kind, spoke English language very good and also made a funny joke here and there.

We started off with one liter of white sangria, the best we ever had. First we ordered a vegetable soup, which was worth the try and for the main course we had squid, which came with the side of cooked potatoes. The squid was the best we have ever had. Fresh, tasty with nice olive oil and garlic sauce. Before we left, the waiter also gave us a complementary shot of brandy with honey and irish cream (his surprise choice :D). Would recommend anyone who enjoys pleasant and "feel like home" restaurant with tradicional...

O Cataplana's Place é um pequeno restaurante situado fora da zona histórica de Faro, o que é excelente porque tinha pouca gente e os preços são acessíveis. Fui lá com o meu namorado no final de Agosto e de início pareceu-nos ser um café, mas serve almoços sem problema e com simpatia.

O espaço é pequeno, mas decente. Já a casa de banho, situada junto à cozinha, parecia já precisar de renovação e estava completamente alagada. Deveriam talvez ter mais cuidado com esse aspecto; muito pouco higiénico.

O prato que pedi era okay, mas não achei nada de extraordinário. A qualidade da língua de vaca (prato do dia na altura) estava de acordo com o preço pedido. Quando lá voltar, experimento a cataplana, a ver se subo mais uma estrela. O bolo de bolacha era enooorme! Um dava para dois adultos (e sobrava).

O senhor que nos serviu não pareceu agradado com o uso de cartão multibanco ou com o facto de eu ter pedido factura, mas lá nos forneceu a mesma. Pronto, recomendo, mas talvez seja mesmo melhor pedir a cataplana e levar dinheiro físico para uma próxima visita.

Resposta ao sr. António Silva, que deixou um comentário:

Boa tarde, sr. António. Deveria ter incluído a data a que fui ao restaurante na minha avaliação, sem dúvida, por isso peço desculpa (já corrigi em cima). Estive aí no final de Agosto, na minha visita a Faro, pelo que é normal que não me tenha visto aí hoje. Infelizmente não consegui fazer a avaliação na altura, mas tinha escrito esta mesma no próprio dia.

Quanto à questão da casa-de-banho; não sei o que lhe diga, eu vi o que vi e inclusive não pude usar o papel higiénico porque ia até ao chão e estava inusável de tão molhado que estava. Pode ter acontecido, então, ter usado (bastante) água a mais na limpeza do chão (não sei qual a causa, só sei que estava alagado). É bom saber que hoje esse problema (em princípio) já não existe. E não, não me enganei no restaurante nesta minha avaliação.

O facto de achar que eu possa ser alguém com más intenções e reagir dessa maneira defensiva, só porque não gostou do que leu, não me dá vontade de voltar, ao contrário do que tinha dito antes na minha avaliação. Em conclusão; não voltarei ao restaurante, mas espero que tudo lhe continue a correr bem e tenha...

I've used Google map for years but this is actually my first time to leave a review. I ate dinner here and couldn't help but leaving a review about this amazing place! I ate cataplana with tamboril which cost 30€ for 2 people. I was pleasantly surprised by its reasonable price. Once the food came out, I was surprised once again with the size of the dish and the amazing taste it brings! It was a perfect match with vinho Verde of the restaurant. If you are staying in Faro, this is definitely a place worth visiting!!!

This is a family-run, local seafood restaurant, serving one of the most recommended Cataplanas in Faro. Great flavour, very reasonable prices. I have also noticed many locals going for different dishes so don't be misled by the name of the place: they can cook a large variety of dishes other than the famous Portuguese seafood soup. The owner is a great guy (and if you need he can also speak English). Pro tip: The Cataplana portion can easily feed 2 very hungry guys so make sure to be "prepared" for it 😅.

Best Cataplana I've ever had in my life. On the menu it says Cataplana is from two people. However, they kindly offered me a Cataplana for one person with 2/3 of price. It was still large, but they kindly allowed me to take away the half with some bread leftovers. I enjoyed it the next day at the hotel as well. Plenty of shell fish and crams created thick flavour of sauce. The potato melts inside your mouth. Must have in Faro.
