Service

Wonderfully charming and homey ambiance you feel as though you&rsquo;ve walked into someone&rsquo;s dining room. One suggestion take a taxi as getting here can be challenging, it&rsquo;s located in a residential neighborhood with very steep hills and narrow streets. And our GPS got confused and we drove around in circles. It&rsquo;s a set menu for 38&euro;, 7 courses, five starters and two mains one fish and meat. All of the dishes are authentic Portuguese cuisine and mostly seafood. Truly fresh ingredients, some highlights fresh clams in a garlic butter sauce, lightly battered shrimp, fresh fish with homemade pasta in a light broth with piri piri and cilantro. The pork on the bone in a light stew was so incredibly tender and juicy.The mini dessert sampler was fantastic! The almond crunch was fantastic as was the lemon and carob cakes. The service was excellent and our waiter is the son of the owner&rsquo;s and his Mom is the chef who we met and thanked her for a truly phenomenal and special meal.

We have been here many times which tells you everything you really need to know. Great food, great value and really attentive staff and service.

Our favourite restaurant in Loule 😍We always have a wonderful time. The  staff are extremely friendly, great service and delicious food 😋

We spent our first night in Lagos at Real Portuguese and it did not disappoint! We sat outside. The inside is lovely as well. Very quaint. In Old Town but out of the craziness and touristy areas. A more laid back, upscale experience. The service though a bit slow at times was welcoming and efficient. Food was excellent. I had the octopus and my husband had the filet mignon. Highly recommend!

A warm welcome was given on arrival and it was lovely to be able to dine outside.   Food was excellent as was the wine.   Well worth a visit.

Great views and food! Repeat dining and not disappointed. We were not asked about water and besides the minor issue, we would definitely go back. Great food and views!

The staff were so friendly and lovely. We enjoyed the seafood and the vegan options.  The view is stunning, and it was a great feeling to park, eat, and spend an afternoon walking on the beach.

We booked through TheFork because we were specifically craving authentic paella&mdash;and wow, did this place deliver. Restaurante Villa Velha ended up being one of the best dining experiences of our entire trip.The paella was hands-down the best we&rsquo;ve ever had. But what really set the experience apart was the chef himself&mdash;a warm, passionate Spaniard who took the time to explain every detail behind the dishes. We learned that the pata negra was aged for 3 years, and the razor clams came from a local cove where the salt levels in the water are unusually high&mdash;giving them a more intense flavor and delicate size.The Catalan cream and cheesecake were also exceptional&mdash;light, flavorful, and clearly made with care.You can feel the heart in this place, from the food to the people. If you&rsquo;re looking for an authentic, memorable meal while in the Algarve&mdash;book this place.

Excellent food, after the vegetables last week were too Al dente, we asked for them to be cooked more, they were perfect this week.  A superb meal.

The service was unbelievable. Extra fantastic! The food had so many courses and everything was delicious. We had the WATER.

Very nice experience at La Villa.The food was excellent and wine very affordable.We had foie gras,frogs legs,duck and fish.Top French cusine restaurant.

Fantastic food and staff as always. Myself and my partner have dined at the Palm Beach on a number of occasions since 2022 and it never disappoints. There is a wonderful menu of fresh and excellent ingredients, I think I have tried most of the dishes at this stage and all are fabulous. The staff are excellent and lovely characters. Thank you to the Palm Beach team for making our visit so wonderful yet again.

I am always in awe at f the top service and amazing food as well as the inviting ambiance with live music. Once again, great experience.

We returned to the Indian Garden after having been there a few weeks before and still not disappointed with the food and service.

We were a group of 8 friends having completed the Rota Vicentina Walk &amp; booked the restaurant to celebrate. Service &amp; food were amazing.

I&rsquo;ve been going here since I was 18. My parents would bring us all the time. I&rsquo;m now 45 and had a lovely meal with my own family. Food was amazing as was the service.

We were recommended Bella Rosa from fellow holidaymakers.  We enjoyed our visit so much that we returned on our last night.  The food is delicious and the staff are so helpful and friendly.  Would definitely recommend you visit when in Carvoeiro.

staff were very attentive and the service was very quick. The steak was cooked to perfection, the salad and rustic fries were the perfect accompaniment.

Excellent, efficient and friendly service. I got the chicken linguine which was so light and delicious. We had reserved the 6.30 slot so had the choice of inside or out but it did get very busy later on so would recommend you reserve. Would go back as there was so much to choose from.

This is our second visit to Frank&rsquo;s so it must be good or we wouldn&rsquo;t have gone back. Hidden gem we definitely recommend : great food and lovely friendly staff. We&rsquo;ll be back again soon.

I went for dinner on Valentine&rsquo;s Day - set menu. Every course was delicious / great service / lovely modern decor with great ambiance / views. Will be back for sure 👍

This restaurant is tucked away from the main tourist areas, but worth seeking out for a seafood meal at a good price. I had the octopus, which was cooked just right, not at all tough, my partner had the sea bass fillets which was also very tasty. The house wine was really good for the money too. It&#39;s a pity that it was quiet when we went (Friday evening), maybe it&#39;s busier earlier in the day as it is also a pastilaria bakery and does breakfasts.

The food was amazing and the service was so great and very personable. Waiter suggested we head upstairs for the sunset on the roof before having dessert. 10/10

One of the best restaurants in the Algarve. Fantastic food , good service and best value for money!I will always comeback.

Superb welcome , lovely staff and warm welcome . I formative about wines and food .Chef cooked lively food and atmosphere was lovely . Thanks all

Could not fault the food. Everything was delicious and cooked as ordered to perfection. First class service and atmosphere. Will definitely return

We have used this restaurant on many occasions and just twice now under new management.  I am pleased to see the menu has been tweaked, and I have to say that my Pizza Mexicana was one of the best I have ever had. It took several attempts to get the bill, but with only 2 waiting staff they were very busy.  More waiting staff needed for busier times.   We were  not impressed with the quality of the olives for the covers, too small, bitter and hard.

Very good food, well prepared and nicely presented, all with extremely friendly and competent service.  We&rsquo;ll most certainly be back!

29/5/2025We arrived at Italian republic and as usual the staff grated us with big smiles and politeness. Food amazing, great service and ambiance.Would highly recommend.Thanks to all at Italian Republic. 😀😀👍

We have regularly dined in Hamburgueria B&amp;B while staying in the area. The staff are great, the restaurant is a library of world craft beers &amp; the food is amazing. The burgers are so tasty &amp; home made!! They have a really good menu. They also have a burger of the month special and we managed to enjoy their October &amp; November offers that were delicious. They marry flavours so very well that you can&rsquo;t put your burger down after the first bite!!! I was spoiled with their gluten free options too. (Bun &amp; chips) Loved their fresh salmon burger I had yesterday evening. We can also recommend their cheese cakes!!! So fresh &amp; wonderfully homemade. We highly recommend a visit&hellip;you&rsquo;ll be hooked !!!
