Outstanding. Ordering the octopus rice is essential. We had the Bloody Mary oysters to start which were very fresh and perfectly complimented by the sauce. The dishes are intended to be shared so we ordered the octopus rice and seared tuna steak which were incredible and more than enough food for two. The seared tuna was so light, served rare (by our request but usually served medium rare) and the accompanying sauces and bonito flakes were delicious. Again, the octopus rice is a must order and we haven’t stopped thinking about it for the rest of the week. A note about the service; both the waitresses that served us were kind, attentive and forgave our very poor Portuguese. Unbeknownst to me, my partner had asked one of the waitresses to discreetly record us as we walked along the beach and he surprised me by proposing to me! We really appreciate her capturing the memory for us 💛

We ate here for dinner last night! The service and the ambiance 10/10 from me. We had a lovely Brazilian guy serving us (I didn’t get his name but he was really friendly and helpful). Our food was all really delicious. Particularly the prawns with eggs and the octopus rice. We also had the scallop starter and the veal croquettes.. the starters were very nice but the main course was the star. I’m removing one star because I did notice the chef shouting at the staff a lot during my meal. I think in 2025 there’s no place for this behaviour and everyone deserves to work with respect. I hope this was a once off occurrence because I would love to come back! ☺️

Food was very good (2 starters + 2 main dishes). Staff was very nice. Prices were "ok-ish" (42€/pp without wine and dessert). I just found annoying the menu itself. You cannot split the menu between "starters" and "main dishes" when most of the starters (not all) have the same size than the main dishes. We ended up extremely full and could not eat dessert. Funny facts: 1. Portugal is one of the biggest kingdoms for coffee lovers and you offer Nespresso at the restaurant? No way! Portugal has great coffee brands. 2. Estrella Damm the only beer at the restaurant? I'm Spaniard and I think you should offer Portuguese beers.
