Miminhos Caseiros — Restaurant in Faro

One of the best meals I have ever had. Don't be fooled by the decor and the fact that the place doesn't even become busy until 22:30 - the food is inventive, "authentic" (whatever that really means), and most importantly delicious.

We paid €35 for two beers, a bottle of wine and four plates of tapas and we would have happily paid double. Highlights include a tender curried duck in puff pastry and the cod bruschetta.

Service is superb - the chef came out to make sure we were enjoying the food and held back a dish as he (correctly) thought we may have underestimated the portion sizes. Only downside is the lack of allergen information on the menu - I'm sure the staff can tell you - but a magnificent...

food - 5 service - 5 price - 4

The food here was great, we tried a few of the dishes and they where all delicious. (The only bad thing was some of the toastinias with the oven cheese where stale) but apart from that everything was amazing.

The staff is very friendly and helpful, this place lives up to it rating.

The price is very good for Faro (€7-9) for a tapas dish which is delicious and a good size. We also had desert 'doce da avó' which was a tasty treat to finish off.

The atmosphere was fairly quiet and simple, it feels like a very typical portuguese restaurant, nothing fancy here, just good food.

I will definitely come again next time...

I typically don’t write reviews but this time I really have to. When we arrived we were the only guests so we were a little skeptic. But when we met the unbelievable sympathetic owner and tasted the excellent food the scepticism resolved. This was literally among the best food me and my girlfriend ever had. Highly recommend the octopus - extremely tender with a super rich sauce (need to mention there was also coriander in it, just in case someone doesn’t like it). Also the owner took his time to explain to us the entire menu in English and gave us his recommendations. Go visit this amazing restaurant and...
