Lagoa Azul Restaurant — Restaurant in Ponta Delgada

A nice and welcoming place, feels like home. We were given a table very fast, even though we had no reservation for dinner. The Bife was one of the best beef stakes I ever tried, very tender. It came with fries and rice. We also had blood sausage with ananas and we loved it. Never tasted such a mix of flavours. A must try. Mariana, the hostess helped is choose the wine, and it was a very rich wine made on Pico island, where grapes grow on the volcanic rocks - the whine is called Terras de Lava. We didn’t order desserts, because we were full (big portions), so we were served local passion fruit liquor and pineapple liquor (on the house) - we are not into liquors, but these were so good that we took some take away. Mariana also served us with a liquor mix (2) which the locals seem to love, and it was fantastic 😅 so we took some take away as well. Next day we wanted some take away lunch at lunch they have buffet, omg their beef stew is so good. Don’t miss this place if you’re in...

The food was really good here and it's a pretty good value at 15 euros. The setting is a buffet serving both fish and meats. The wine is included and so is the coffee; you can have as many coffees as you want! However the place is typically busy and you best show up early to get on the admission list. The place is quite a destination for small tourist bus tours. There are only Bout thee restaurants in Sete Cidades. I consider this the best p!ace to eat. Just quite popular so be prepared to wait 30 to 40 minutes before you can get in. It's not a big place, maybe can seat about 45 people. Once you're in just walk up to the buffet and help yourself. Parking could be a challenge if you are driving as the restaurant does not have dedicated parking. You can park a couple of streets away in public parking and it's only a 10 minute walk to the restaurant from where we parked....

Excellent homemade food! The restaurant offers around 6–8 deliciously prepared dishes, plus three types of fresh salad. For €18 you get an all-you-can-eat buffet, one drink, and an espresso – really great value.

Although dessert isn’t included in the price, don’t miss it. We tried the brownie and it was amazing.

I saw some reviews mentioning there wasn’t enough food, but that probably depends on the time of your visit. If you come late in the afternoon (around 3 PM), it makes sense that some trays might be empty. We went around 1 PM and everything was perfectly filled and fresh.

There’s no dedicated parking lot, but you can easily park on the street right in front of the restaurant.

Highly recommended if you want authentic homemade flavors at a...
