Definately the best restaurant on the Island Flores. Not only the food is great but the location with the view from the garden over the ocean is breath taking! Here you can see beatiful sun sets. We had diner twice and all was delicious. The limpets, grilled fish, lamb, sea weed pie, beef, peanut ice cream, everything was delicious, home made, I guess the veggies from the garden of the owners. The owners are very kind and work hard and create a very relaxed admosphere as well. We even got a welcome wine and honey liquor since we stayed in their traditional holliday house for about a week. Can highly reccoment this restaurant. It's best to make a reservation since the place is not too big but if fully booked for lunch or diner, just go there for a drink and enjoy the beautiful view in the garden!

This little place is a treat. Often booked out at night, but quietish when we passed through for lunch. Cuisine is traditional Azorean with some nice little touches. Veg soup to start with but there was a tempting sounding seafood pancake (15 euros). The place is not cheap but the food was excellent. Junior had the vegan choice which was called seaweed cake but was actually a kind of skewer of balls of seaweed cooked with egg a sort of spongy flavour of the sea without eating an actual fish, which was left to the rest of us. This was served with yam, sweet potato and ordinary potato. Odd but nice. Fried fillets of Trigger Fish for Junior 2 and two portions of Boca Negra, fried, although it said grilled on the menu, with potatoes and mixed salad. This is a fish that never disappoints, fluffy white flesh, gentle flavour and firm enough to take a good frying until the skin is crispy. Delicious. The lemon mousse was creamy and divine, while junior tucked into a kind of dessert of the house, featuring chocolate, cream and cake. All washed down with a bottle of vinho verde and coming to the princley sum of 110 euros including coffees. Highly recommend. Village of Fajazinha is a gem, restaurant is a very steep walk towards the sea.

Delicious and welcoming experience at this restaurant. Everything was delicious and you have to order the seaweed pie! We ordered nearly the entire menu. The owner was so kind and friendly, he also owns a few airbnbs nearby that look lovely. Pop out with a drink to catch the epic sunset. A perfect dinner spot. Bring cash! No credit cards. Make a reservation in advance as there are limited tables.

During my stay in Flores I have visited this restaurant twice. I was lucky at first to get a place without a reservation, but it is safer to reserve upfront as the restaurant is often full. Situated in an amazing location, this traditional restaurant serves great food and wine. We have had fish both times, and it was very simple and tasty, served with typical cooked vegetables. The portions were generous, but there was still place for dessert; bolo de pudim (pudding cake) was very good both times. The waiter was friendly and welcoming. After our second dinner, we experienced an amazing sunset, discovering the reason why the restaurant is named Por do Sol (meaning sunset in portuguese). Overall, our visit was a very pleasant experience both times, and we would highly recommend it. P.s.: Make sure you bring cash or national debit card as the restaurant does not accept international debit cards.

Owner walking around the room without a mask, another member (I think of the family) also without a mask with a dog inside the room, ambient disco-style music and on top of that too loud, smell of some kind of detergent that I didn't identify, distance between tables does not exist , people consuming at the counter, anyway....Summary question, is this a dining venue?They never catch me there again.P.s. not even the food is safe

It was hars to find because both google maps and Apple Maps had marked the place on wrong places. But with TripAdvisor we finally found it. We had lamb and it was perfect, very delicious. We recommend this place.

Even if the cuisine is simple and good, I wouldn't return to this restaurant because the dining room isn't very clean, the decor is overloaded, the service is minimalist and, above all, the refrigerated display case isn't clean and is almost empty.
Too bad, very disappointed. Are not in the business, (new owners) coffee served in the middle of the meal !!, forgets to serve the desserts, no water in stock (it was only noon).

Very disappointing despicable noise caused by tables that are moved, drinks offered after the meal served, no still water, no chilled wine. Very disappointing

I like everything the friendliness of the store manager as the children in customer service

Nonsense from the new owners who are not at all in the business

Very disappointing on their part they are not in the business
