Alma Latina — Restaurant in Lagoa

I wasn’t planning to post anything—especially since I forgot to take pictures before diving in—but the food was just too good not to share!

Everything about our experience was amazing. The service was fast and friendly, the owner was incredibly welcoming, and the atmosphere was warm and cozy. Honestly, this is by far one of the best places to eat in Rosario Lagoa.

The pasta seafood dish was perfectly cooked, and the sauce was absolutely delicious. I even tried my wife's Pink shrimp linguine, and it was out of this world! Every bite was packed with flavor.

If you're a local or just visiting, I highly recommend checking this place out. It definitely deserves all the attention—it’s simply fantastic.

We decided to go back today to try more of their menu, and once again, it was absolutely delicious. I had the filet mignon Chateaubriand, and my wife went with the carbonara — both were simply outstanding.

If you're a local or just visiting, do yourself a favor and give this place a try. And if for some reason you don’t enjoy it, feel free to reply to my review — I’d honestly be shocked if you...

I like to get my Fanta direct from a small bottle, and they made it. The olives as starter were very tasteful in olive oil, herbs and garlic. For the main course we ordered Octopus local and Sirloin in beer sauce. The octopus looked very tasty and also it was. I think I will never have this taste anywhere. And the meat was on point and the French fries as side where also great. All the food was regional and I think you can taste it. I only can recommend this...

Stopped in for lunch on our last day in São Miguel. We came here specifically for the Franchesinha. We were not disappointed. It was delicious. Service was great, prices were reasonable, beer was cold, wine was amazing. Super cute little fishing town, and this place is right down by the port. Tucked in from the roadway a bit, you have to look for it. Absolutely worth the trip and a great way to end our holiday in Açores. We forgot to get a picture of it, as we were so busy eating it, but the picture attached shows where it used to be. It was amazing,...
