“A wonderful gem in Vilamoura! From the time we arrived until we left, the service was fantastic. The waiters were attentive, professionally skilled and made good recommendations for food and drink. We started with drinks that tasted heavenly.
The concept is sharing and you have a large and exciting selection of fish, meat and vegetarian dishes. We ate four courses and were full.
The place is cozy decorated and the food arrived quickly. The waiters always poured wine and water, and were very pleasant and service minded.
Definitely recommend Salmora to others visiting Vilamoura!
Vegetarian options: Several dishes with only vegetables, as well as lots of fish and shellfish.“

“A fabulous, locally owner restaurant. We normally order the turbot, which is out of this world, but last time I ordered the pepper steak and my wife the seafood rice, both of which were sublime. Service and ambiance are always exceptional. It’s our go-to restaurant.“

“My fave place this holiday (so far) Best meal that Ppl need to go there and up the ratings! Highly recommend for fresh seafood but they do have other foodstuff. Great views and staff, some are so experienced, and even the customer kids are so well mannered. Open til 12 midnight which is the latest we have come across.
(so far i have been to:
Aroma di Mare xXx closest, so went 3 times at 11.15pm for takeaway, lunchtime and snack b4 dinner!
Casa Velha xXx at roundabout, towards Newtown
Flavours - Oldtown sea views (inbetween Oceano and Louisano)
RMs Restaurante Martins (more outside towards villamoura/balaia)
Tasca Portuguesa at the Marina xXx
6degrees Paragrafo for cocktails at end of marina
Least good was Tsatsumi
Natsu in Loulé, ramen was best, rest wasn't great or fresh ...)“

“Very nice home,
no difficulty communicating in French,
the menu is clear and offers simple, local choices, with fresh and well-prepared products.
The boss gives us his opinion accompanied by wine depending on the dish chosen.
And finally, special mention to the team who took great care from start to finish (time management between dishes, services, and even a few songs played and sung on the guitar by the manager and his colleagues.)
THANKS.“

“Seafood restaurant where you can eat luxury, if you are used to eating in Portugal, its strength in general is not the adequacy of the premises and establishments, but when cooking fish and shellfish they are the best, and in this establishment the food is very good, I go two or three times every year, I love it, the service is slow, but that's the way of the Portuguese, you have to go to enjoy and not look for faults or compare, that's when you enjoy the food and the experience.“

“Très bon restaurant. Le restaurant offre une qualité de nourriture et des plats plus que raisonnable par rapport aux prix. Cependant, si vous prenez de l'eau en bouteille, ou du vin et des petits extras la note peut très cité augmenter. Personnel agréable et accueillant. Service rapide. Je conseil fortement le poisson qui est très bien préparé!“

“If you’ve ever wanted to get BBQ’d fish and meat in an unfinished field with a few outbuildings and a repurposed food truck, all across the street from a mobile home park, look no further than Restaurante Roulotte do Sr. Antonio!!
The fish comes in big portions, is very fresh and well seasoned and expertly cooked. The pork ribs were delicious and very well seasoned. The kids hot dog came (unexpectedly) with crushed up bits of potato chips (crisps) on top and tasty fries (chips) on the side—all for 5 euros. Put simply, the owner/grill master knows his way around a BBQ.
Depending on your tastes, however, he is a truly abysmal DJ. For the seeming eternity we were there (more on that later), we were largely subjected to YouTube videos of what appeared to be Russia’s knock-off version of the Eurovision Song Contest. It was so bad (borderline torture, honestly, that wouldn’t have been out of place at Guantanamo Bay) that we couldn’t stop laughing. I’m giving the whole atmosphere 5 stars because of how unique it was; like dining in a very tasty episode of the Twilight Zone. But if you don’t want a bit of adventure and exposure to some of the worst songs the internet can possibly serve up, this is NOT the place for you.
That is especially true because you won’t be in and out quickly. The service is as slow as other reviewers suggest (read “glacial”), largely because the staff appears to be just the husband and wife team here; he behind the grill when not drinking quite a bit and cranking up the devil’s music, she in the food truck doing something unclear when not otherwise cleaning glassware and dancing overly attentively and with surprising gusto to the aforementioned video entertainment.
Do I regret going? Absolutely not. Would I ever go back? Not in a million years, except for takeout.“

“Good fish restaurant, it has tables inside and a covered terrace, good equipment, he showed us the fish we were going to have for dinner. We ordered grilled squid, with a side of potatoes and vegetables. A grilled parguete with the same garnish as the squid, just right. If the grilled meals are accompanied with a light sauce, I think they would gain a lot, it is a very personal opinion, but it has happened to me in restaurants in Portugal .To top off a very delicious cake. recommendable“

“The food was lovely, I had the meatballs to start then the Octopus for main, they were Devine. The staff were very helpful and pleasant. As it was a Saturday the entertainment was brilliant, we were singing and dancing. Would recommend to everyone and their gluten free varieties were excellent.
Dietary restrictions: Gluten free options readily available good choice too.“
“Really delicious pizzas! We went to the restaurant just as their menu had changed, and the staff were interested in asking our opinions about the dishes. The pizzas were heavenly and the pastas were also good. My favorite pizza, which I recommend to all burrata and pistachio lovers, is "Pistacchiella", but I left out the ham, it works either way. The only thing that was "only" 4/5 was the ice creams, which were very good, but the random ice chips in the ice cream were not to my taste. During the day, the restaurant had a Happy Hour, which was also a nice surprise, a small drink 2€ and an Aperol Spritz 4-5€. The terrace of the restaurant has a beautiful view of the sea, especially the sunset we saw on two evenings crowned the dinner. Last night we had 12 people for dinner. they don't have ready tables for such a big group, but they managed to arrange tables for us by moving a common table to the terrace. All in all, I really recommend the restaurant. The only room for development that I can give the restaurant is that attention should be paid to the speed of the service. Fortunately, Mr. Shift Manager (I assume) was there and dealt with the problems.“

“Dinner with a group of friends who were customers of this restaurant who had already told me about the good quality of the food. I decided to take a risk at their invitation, since the restaurants in the guide, in my understanding and knowledge, are very common and the dish is always the franganito, congratulations on the friendliness of the entire staff and the good quality meal I enjoyed with my friends, I will be back soon. I RECOMMEND IT.“

“Dinner with friends, bread and butter cover, then we ordered several dishes to share, octopus salad, fried shrimp, grilled squid, clams, etc. Everything was very well prepared and in generous portions.
When delicious food meets fast, attentive staff with a smile on their face, it's the perfect recipe for coming back. I recommend it all year round.
Parking: Wide and spacious. Rammed earth.“

“We had a Sunday carvery lunch at Oscar’s and it was excellent. The food is really fresh and all home cooked. There were three choices of meat and lots of vegetables to choose from, plus gravy and lots of sauces. The desserts are excellent too, we had rhubarb crumble and custard. The service is great especially from Lauri who was so helpful and very friendly. It was a great Sunday lunch dining experience.“
“It was great being back at this beautiful restaurant again. We were warmly welcomed by Eduardo and his team. It was a lovely evening so we were able to sit on the terrace with a fantastic view of the sea. The ice cold beer was a welcomed relief from the heat and the food and service was up to its usual high standard. They serve the best Pulpo à Lagareiro which is my dish of choice. Can’t wait to be back next year and bring other members of our family who have not yet had the pleasure of dining hear.“

“Nothing to add, everything excellent as always. The spider crab filling remains unparalleled, only as Fernando knows how to prepare it. The cuttlefish eggs are worth eating and crying for more. And the chocolate mousse continues to top the dessert“
“We are currently on holiday staying galf way between Villamoura and Albufeira, and decided to taxi over to the marina for tea. Out of the wide variety of restaurants available we took a punt on this one and it certainly delivered. Just a bread starter, but it came with a lovely selection of olives, tuna, pickled carrots...really tasty. I had chicken in a creamy mushroom sauce, which was vert tasty and a very generous portion. My husband had a mixed kebab which was a massive portion...and so tasty. Happily recommend this restaurant to all.“

“I love the space, the drinks are excellent!!
The only point to point out was about my last visit.
We arrived, where all or almost all the tables were reserved and we asked where we could sit!
They put us at a table, with no indication that it would be "just for food"... well, but in the end it was decided, it was just boring!
But I'll be back at the end of the summer.“

Very rich.

“What a wonderful meal we had! We hadn’t been to O Tanque for some time but we’ll certainly be back very soon. The couvert is amazing. They come round with a big tray and you can choose what to have. The baby squid starter is divine. Best in the Algarve in my opinion. We shared a large robalo for main. Cooked beautifully with amazing fresh veg and tiny new potatoes that were delicious. We hadn’t got room for pudding but at the end of our meal. Little sweet treats were presented along with white and ruby port that was left on the table (John had a second glass it was so nice) Reasonable price. Lovely staff. We’ll definitely be back. Thank you“
“Visited tonight and can only describe it as a fabulous experience. The food and wine were amazing: We had fried prawns in garlic and peri-peri sauce followed by Tagliolini seafood pasta, and my wife had Salted Cod Stew both of which were really tasty, we than shared creme brulee which had a bit of a twist. Some of the reviews say it's a little expensive but worth it for the quality. Staff were very friendly, attentive and only too happy to help with recommendations. Overall would highly recommend.“

“Great little gem of a place! The food was freshly cooked and very tasty. Very reasonably priced as well. We prefer local type of places that serve local and traditional food and this fitted our taste perfectly. We tried the Portuguese steak, the Sea Bass and the Chicken - all delicious, especially the steak ?. The Peanut cake is so underrated - it's a lovely light cake in a few thin layers with light cream in-between and peanuts sprinkled on top - absolutely delicious! Reminded me of a cake my mum used to do when I was little.The service was polite and friendly and we managed even though we don't speak a word of Portuguese. Some of the waiters speak English. The service was reasonably quick and we did not feel rushed or unattended at any time. All is all - a lovely experience!“

“We walked past this restaurant for a week. It was always busy, so we stopped here early one evening for dinner. They have live fish, crabs and lobster in tanks in the restaurant.
We had a bottle of still water, with freshly squeezed orange juice, apple juice and a small bottle of red wine. For food we had a chicken kebab with square potatoes, spaghetti bolognese and fried halibut with vegetables and potatoes.
Before our main meal arrived they brought us some bread rolls with butter, fish paste and a mixture of tuna, mayonnaise and spring onion. This was delicious, I'm going to make this when I get home.
Service was impeccable and professional. The staff are very talkative and have friendly genuine banter. The drinks and food came quickly. Everything tasted fresh and the right amount of spice used.
I noticed they had apple pie in the cabinet on my way back from the toilet, which was clean.
I had warm apple pie with ice cream, this was delicious ?. Apple pie tastes better warm and my husband's son had chocolate mousse.
We paid nearly €90 euros for the three of us.
I definitely recommend going to Ostra D'Ouro 5 ⭐ for everything!
I've tried to post videos of the food we ate, but Google won't let me! Sort out you're AI bot Google it's only food!“

Fantastic. The wines are quite expensive because the one we ordered for 17 euros sells for three and a bit in the supermarket.“

“I have been in Portugal for 20 days in various places but this is the best restaurant I have frequented.
Simple in its appearance but delicious in the preparation of the menu which was abundant and superlative.
Good wine and appetizers offered at the entrance are truly excellent and not just for presentation.
The bill was very honest and the staff very friendly even though I don't know the Portuguese language at all. Thank you with all my heart!“
