TheForkUserWe were here for our anniversary and it was the perfect thing for our day. The view was gorgeous and the food was really nice, I even had the banana split although I don’t like bananas at all. The service was also good. They recognized that they were not that noticeable for us but made it up in the end and we were very happy that we decided to go here!

Japanese
TheForkUserWow! I was worried looking at some google reviews, how wrong I was. Let me start by saying I am married to a Japanese, that we are true International foodies and often travelling to Japan obviously for the past 20yrs as a couple . We had the Kaiseki menu (degustation, 5-6 dishes for 88€) not only the food quality and tastes were amazing (as well as quantity), service was spotless, and the quality/price ratio is also quite good compared to another “premium” Asian (hotel) restaurant not very far that we tried the day before and left a little disappointed. The wine selection was also quite good and reasonably priced for a very nice Duro white wine. We agreed this meal was one of our top 10 Japanese restaurants experience ever, so we cannot recommend it enough. This is definitely a top Madeiran restaurant on the 16th floor of the Savoy Palace hotel so dressing accordingly is recommended to fully enjoy this very nice culinary experience.

TheForkUserBeautiful, quiet location in a residential area in Arco de Calheta. Great ocean view. Really well prepared food compared to most restaurants we visited during our stay om Madeira Island. Fair prices for the quality and rather large portions. We ended up dining here more than once. Would recommend!

TheForkUserThe sea urchin emulsion was amazing, great wine suggestion from the sommelier (Nat Cool) and a rum pairing for the dessert. Only downside was the bad acoustics in the restaurant, had to raise my voice for the conversation.

TheForkUserExtremely salty food. After being asked how it was I was honest and all the waiter done was turn the back and go back to the till area.Overall cheap, but awful flavour.We’ve requested a sangria and it didn’t even had any fruit.I’d avoid going here if you want a decent experience.

TheForkUserThis restaurant was very classy with a delightful amusee bouche to start with I had tomato soup served over a poached egg from a current it was rich and fresh followed by the beef Wellington beautifully presented and for desert the falsetto creme brulee . The service was immaculate overseen by the delightful head waiter Manuel Santos. In short the best meal have had so far with a wine list to suit every taste and pocket.
