“We went there twice. The skewers are excellent, the toppings very good (small ? for the milho frito). The servers are very welcoming and smiling. We will surely return there a third time, but simply out of greed...? And also for the welcome ?“

“The absolute best estepada! You can see how they prepare it and the meat is beautiful even raw! The portion for €15 is larger than elsewhere (with bolo do caco was enough for two) Fast and professional service. Pleasant environment. Parking on the street in front of the restaurant.“

Chef Robert has done something very special here. The combination of ingenuity of recipes, local produce and flawless presentation lived up to the expectations and beyond.
The service was also exquisite.
A must see if you're a culinary fan and in Madeira!“

“Visited this restaurant at lunchtime, a place at the end of the promenade with a great view of the sea.
The service tried hard, but was a little overwhelmed; our drinks only came after a slightly longer wait
We ordered small mackerels, which were very tasty. Then we had grilled squid, which was also super tasty and well prepared.
The prices were okay and we moved on satisfied and full.“

“Prices are very low for Funchal, large portions, tasty food. Very nice service. A specific place with a characteristic atmosphere where locals eat. It happens that when you order some dishes, they are no longer available, but this is only because they were sold out that day. Therefore, everything is always fresh.“

“We visited Avista three times during our thirteen days in Madeira and enjoyed every visit, to the extent that we did not recognise the negative comments in some other reviews. On each occasion our meals were outstanding (each course was stunning but my last meal of beef tartare, tuna on the josper with barbecued pineapple and mashed potato (inspired by Joel Robuchon), and crème brûlée was simply stunning. The service was also outstanding and while it is probably unfair to identify one person, I will - our favourite darts player merits special attention and we look forward to hearing how he did in the nationals during our next visit.
So, to put it simply, Avista is stunning and unequivocally our favourite restaurant.“

“Restaurante Informal serves some of the most tasty and delicious food I've come across in Funchal, and the charming and cozy atmosphere just adds to the experience. We've gone through most of their menu during our stay on Madeira in February, and along with some amazing hiking experiences, the food from Informal is still being brought up as one of the highlights of our visit!“

“I highly recommend !
A very good address with a view of the ocean (in fact the restaurant overlooks the beach). The service is careful and impeccable.
The lemon poncha is one of the best and the garlic bread accompanies it deliciously for a very local aperitif. I let myself be tempted by the squid and shrimp skewer accompanied by grilled sweet potatoes. It was divine but so filling that I couldn't finish my plate. My companion had the pork ribs and he enjoyed it. They were both tender and generous. We didn't have room for dessert. With regret because those of our table neighbors were magnificent“

“Do not judge the appearance of this place! It kind of looks like a travel agency at a mall in the US at first glance - but the food is exceptional and the service was perfect! We got garlic bread, mussels and seafood spaghetti for one - split bc it is huge. It was perfect! One of the best meals here!“

“Hard to beat in terms of taste!
A quiet little side street that invites you to linger.
We had a very nice few hours, with good wine, a very tasty greeting from the kitchen, a very good starter, a main course that was perfect for me and a dessert in the restaurant to round everything off.
Absolutely recommended!“

“Outstanding! Our favourite place in Madeira by a mile. The service was impeccable. Standout dishes were the starter of goat cheese pastry with pumpkin chutney. And the two mains we had of grouper with lime and seaweed risotto and fish filet with coriander squashed bread. An excellent, modern and fresh twist on traditional cuisine - thank you!
Only drawback was how hot it was inside given it’s an open kitchen - would have appreciated some aircon“

“Very tasty homemade food, amazing service, lots of locals who eat here. Very affordable. It’s a kanteen with good food, you can choose between meat and fish plate. Plates are big and tasty. The service is fabulous, the lady saw us struggling a bit with our hungry and grumpy toddler and asked what can she eat outside of menu. In the end our daughter ate very tasty sandwich that wasn’t on the menu and as well her fish plate. Desserts are really nice as well. So much better than a street away with all the tourist places.“

“A charming little restaurant seating 20 with a cozy bistro atmosphere. A beautiful place for a romantic moment!
The dishes are of finesse and perfect mastery of flavors. For example, I want the piri piri octopus which is soft in the mouth and just seasoned just right.
The meat is perfectly cooked and the accompaniments are top notch.
I highly recommend it!“

“My daughter and I went, we were very well attended to, the black beans were very tasty and the meats were tender and very tasty. The service from the team was professional from the beginning, but the gentleman who served the meat was 10 stars (Mr. Paulo Sérgio) and always served with great friendliness, good humor and willingness, it was a pleasure to be served by him. Super recommended! On Monday, it really was starting the week off on the right foot. Thanks!“

We enjoyed it immensely. There was a lovely woman who sang all evening. The food was of top quality and the price was cheap compared to Dutch standards.
€61.95 for a 3 course menu with prosecco and 3 different wines, they also poured each time the glass was empty.“

“Living in the Hotel Panoramico, we were looking for good, authentic local cuisine beyond the tourist mainstream. A few streets further on, we found what we were looking for in the Restaurante Casa da Sogra, which was not only within walking distance, but also very positive in every respect: owner-run family restaurant (the owner's parents are the chefs) with an unusually nice approach both from the senior personally and from the service (the owner's daughter actively works there). We were so impressed that we ate there again two days later and left the restaurant in a high mood. Excellent food without the chichi, great wine, wonderful dessert, excellent value for money! Thank you for the successful evenings, we'll be happy to come back!“

“A magnificent surprise during the trek in the Levada dos 25 Fontes. You can also get there by leaving the car on the nearby road and walking 200 meters downhill, but we found it on the trekking route. The pasteis de nata are worth it, hot and delicious“

“During our vacation we spent two evenings at Calheta Green. The restaurant is beautifully located - with a view of the sea and quiet, green surroundings. The food was very fresh and tasty. The grill is visible to all guests. The restaurant also offers a bar.
We were particularly impressed by the service of our waiter Igor. We could always trust his recommendations regarding food and drinks. His very friendly and, above all, attentive way of working stands out clearly from other locations on Madeira. After our first visit, his service persuaded us to spend our last evening in Madeira in this restaurant.
Vegetarian options: Fresh, tasty and unusual.
Recommended to other vegetarians.
Parking: Approximately 15 parking spaces available
Wheelchair accessibility: You can park directly in front of the entrance. Access to the restaurant (including the terrace) is level.“

“Our lunch at the Lavrador São Vicente restaurant was a real highlight of our stay in São Vicente. We tried the grilled mussels and the fish of the day (sea bass) and were amazed by the quality and taste of the food. The mussels were grilled to perfection and the sea bass was fresh and superbly prepared.
The price-performance ratio is unbeatable. Despite the high quality of the dishes, the prices are more than fair, making this restaurant a must for anyone in São Vicente. The service is also particularly noteworthy: the service was extremely nice and made us feel very welcome.
Overall, we can only warmly recommend the Lavrador São Vicente restaurant. If you are in São Vicente, you definitely shouldn't miss this culinary experience!“

“Amazing value for money.
We got bread and rolls for our hikes from there every morning. We also took the chicken pizza and some other savoury treats with us and everything was tasty.
We treated ourselves to a breakfast of cake one morning as there are soooo many to choose from. The slices are enormous.
Would recommend to have breakfast there every day to try everything. I tried a lot in a week but still feel I am missing out on some things :)“

“Excellent restaurant, the best food we ate in Funchal!!! To our surprise, it was not the beer that was important, but the excellent food: be sure to try Picado (we ate beef and octopus). Great service and atmosphere! And finally, brandy shots, which is not standard in Funchal! I recommend it 100%“
“Immaculately morning stop! As a bakery enthusiast they are always a first stop abroad and this one is the best of the best. High quality pastries, quick service. The nata was amazing and would be my top rec! Everything priced well. 2 nata, 1 croissant and 1 spinach pocket were only €5.“

“We got there by accident while driving to the nuns' valley. It is a place visited mainly by the local community with local decor and atmosphere (I personally love and appreciate such places). The food is very tasty, fries cut from fresh potatoes (the large portion of fries is huge), delicious meat, wonderful vegetables. Local service with very basic English but I highly recommend it.“

Food was delicious, waitress was smiley (rare in Madeira). The only thing we were not fan of was the dessert, it was not for our taste.“

“A local friend recommended this place when we wanted to treat ourselves to a little more than the usual supermarket wines. We will definitely come back, and it is an awesome place to bring your Madeira visitors.The owner was really great about making a wine recommendation, and the charcuterie board was perfeito! I had to be talked into having the brownie; do not be me, order it. It was an amazing end to a great evening.“
