Cantinho das Provas — Restaurant in Horta

A wonderful dining experience with outstanding service. The staff is incredibly friendly and welcoming, and the food—especially when paired with the wines—is truly exceptional.

The atmosphere is warm and relaxed, with soft background music and a beautifully designed interior that perfectly complements the character of the restaurant.

We highly recommend choosing the €25 wine pairing option with your meal. The wines are mostly local and come with interesting stories that add an extra layer to the experience. The pairings improved each course and made the evening even more enjoyable.

As we understood, all the ingredients are locally sourced, which adds to the authenticity and quality of the dishes.

We shared seven different dishes, which was just the right amount for two people. With four wines (plus a small extra refill for free, amazing service, because we loved one so much) and a bottle of sparkling water, the total came to €120—excellent value for what we received.

All in all, highly...

Dessert was simply unacceptable as it was highly burned on the bottom (brownie and cheese/lemon cake) and actually tasted like burned. Huge deception, not worth the price. Loved the...

Beautiful little restaurant, great atmosphere, delicious food, and even better wine. Food was truly incredible. Very unique and so flavorful. We had the beet root tartar with avocado which I was very surprised by, it was truly delicious. Also had the sausage and finished with the lemongrass coconut pistachio panacotta. All of which were delicious. We did the wine tasting with 1 rose 2 white wines and 1 red wine. Each was a local and unique flavor, I found one of my new favorite wines. The owner was so kind and helpful and gave an incredible selection. Great fish meat and veg options for all, highly recommend this place, my partner and I had a very enjoyable...
