Tasquinha do Pescador — Restaurant in Machico

3 stars for the chicken wings WE been coming are for many years with our family most of the time it's been hit and miss more hits then Ms on this day the service was in a word I can best describe it was terrible embarrassing and Shameless especially in front of my family and young ones to listens to the waitress calling us a liar and that we where wrong I thought the customer was always right 90+ not to go into much detail customer pointed out something to the waitress to sort out with no problem by bringing fresh product and saying sorry for the myths understanding and that should be it and the Waitress would probably get a tip but not this waitress had to call the manager co-owner to resolve the issue he made the waitress apologies to us but she didn't want to apologise and she was absolutely rude with apology this girl needs to leave her job or get some diplomatic training on customer service also she was supposed to take some items from The Bill but she brought the bill with all the items off the bill we did not consume how to go back to the manager and he apologise and took it off the bill the waitress should be re-trained if wants to carry on working there or if she's not happy to leave and choose something else also there was a notice saying they are looking for staff so anybody interested do see manager co-owner. me and my friends and family will come here again and give her another try fingers crossed next time will be a good at the time this was what happened to us on that day I still recommend give it a try for yourself good help is hard to find also...

My recent visit to Tasquinha do Pescador for lunch was an absolute delight. From the moment we stepped in, the warm and friendly service set the tone for our meal. Acting upon the waitress's recommendation, we opted for the fried and breaded fish, accompanied by a selection of sides including fresh salad, boiled potatoes, and bread.

The food was exceptional in both taste and presentation. The fish was perfectly cooked, offering a crispy exterior while retaining its succulent interior. Each side dish complemented the main course beautifully, enhancing the overall flavor of our meal.

What made our experience even more pleasant was the cost-effective nature of our choices. The waitress had advised us to go for these dishes instead of the more expensive lunch set, a suggestion we greatly appreciated as it proved to be a cheaper yet equally satisfying option.

Throughout our visit, the staff ensured we were well taken care of, making us feel valued and attended to. This level of customer service truly made our dining experience stand out.

I highly recommend Tasquinha do Pescador for anyone looking for delicious seafood at reasonable prices, served with a smile. It's a gastronomic gem that deserves a 5/5 rating for the...

Word of advice for all the vegetarians who end up here - DO NOT order the veggie pasta. It’s the only veggie main they serve, and it is absolutely awful. It is just boiled pasta, boiled carrots and chopped tomato. Like raw chopped tomato. There’s NO pasta sauce, not even olive oil?!

It definitely was silly on our part to walk into such a place expecting a vegetarian dish but this veggie pasta was recommended by the staff. And we only sat down because they confirmed they have this option. We somehow managed to eat half of the portion (because who wants to waste a pasta you’re paying almost €10 for?!), but we were feeling so sick a few hours later.

We even gave feedback about this to the employee who brought our bill, and he just smiled and shrugged his shoulders…

Their bolo de caco, on the other hand, was one of the best I’ve eaten on the island. But definitely not good enough to...
