Only a few vegan options here and unfortunately not that successful ones. The miso soup lacked flavor and the yaki soba noodles contained of 90% noodles and 10% vegetables. I asked if I could have it with Tofu, but they only have the silken one which would turn in to a mash. Understandable, but it can't be that difficult to get a firm tofu or other plant based protein source. The vegan sushi was better, but it came with an astronomic price. Just like everything else. I have zero issues to pay more for a good quality, but they definitely need some improvements to make it worth.

Best restaurant in Alvor - it is difficult to choose between so many spectacular dishes. The location is charming - small and beautiful.

The food is good and the environmnet as well. Really negative is the service: it took more than 20 minutes just to order. Then after finishing the meal we spent 30 minutes without a single person coming to the table. We ended up just getting up and going to the counter and requested the bill. Not even a single apology or the concern if evertyhing was ok. We wont come back for sure.

Fantastic place for Portuguese food and vibe. Recommended by a local friend in Portimao. The fish is so fresh and tasty! Cooking is fantastic. Price is reasonable. The owner lady is super nice - she tailored their menu to suit my fussy dietary requirements. Highly recommended!

Food was ok, staff are friendly and provide good service and the room is very nice. However, the cocktails had next to no alcohol. We had three different drinks, in each of which you would normally be able to detect the alcohol but there was none. Not hugely important in itself but I don’t like being taken for an idiot.

Very nice place but tagliatelle with fish watered down in an undefined sauce, 2 prawns and 1 mussel for the rest peppers, all without a defined taste... without comment. Given the reviews, either I came across it on a bad night or I made the wrong dish.
