Restaurants in Carvoeiro

“Quiet, family-friendly place to eat. Extensive menu of dishes, although few desserts; Yes, the one I ordered was very delicious.
I have to comment that in the food, the sea bass was very cooked.
The quality is good and the prices are reasonable.
Clean bathrooms.
The place is a little dated and the staff friendly.”

“The vegetable cataplana is delicious and a large portion so could serve 1 or 2. Only one other vegan/vegetarian option but the whole menu was quite small anyway.”

“A really great little bar. The owner Manuel is a fantastic guy who made this our favourite place for a drink or two in Carvoeiro. We wish him every success and we’ll definitely be back. Tony and Orla.”

“I’m Chinese, my parents had a restaurant called the same name in France so I can tell you that the food is legit! Not too salty, super tasty, just right Chinese food! Try and you won’t regret your choice!

“We ordered 3 burgers and they were very good. Very well adjusted price. We loved the one with marquise sauce because it was original and different in plating, and it was also delicious. If you go through Carvoeiro you have to try it!”

“Great quiet little spot in the middle of it all. Had some sardines, bread and olives. None of your John West bargain basement stuff either ???. Definitely recommend.”

“BEST PIZZA EVER! I came here 3 times for the week I stayed in Carvoeiro. Tried 3 different items as well, all tastes like heaven! Would come back just for the pizza. The one thing I love the most is the adjustable spicy level, I love spicy, and chef can adjust different spicy levels!”

“Carvoeiro Bar is een bekende van ons. Elk keer dat we naar Carvoeiro gaan, bezoeken wij altijd deze bar. Het is er gezellig en de eigenaar, Bob, zorgt er altijd voor dat er iets te zien of te vieren valt, zoals live muziek, karaoke of zoals dit keer ook de EK. Er komen hier veel landgenoten, Nederlanders dus. Kortom, het is een bar voor gezelligheid, nieuwe contacten maken en lekker drinken. Leuk weetje: Bob maakt de gehaktballen zelf. Zeer de moeite waard om dat er te eten. Ik vond het zelf heel lekker! ?”

“Snacks type menu. Had the vegan wrap, tofu was plain - would have been nice if it was seasoned or marinated, but otherwise refreshing. Service was a little slow but it was busy. Partner had the pink crush smoothie bowl which was very nice and looked great! Updated from previous review on 2025-09-04”

“Wir haben hier öfters unser Frühstück eingenommen, wir haben ein englisches Frühstück genommen es hat hier Würstchen mit Spiegelei mit Bohnen und Hashbrowns mit Toast und Orangensaft und Kaffee ☕️ für 8,50 €. Das Frühstück war ausgezeichnet und der Service war auch ausgezeichnet, wenn wir wieder hierher kommen ist das wieder unser Frühstückslokal.”

“We paid £20 each for the vegan sushi tasting menu which included some spring rolls and dumplings as a starter followed by the biggest platter of sushi I have seen in my life! A really tasty array of fillings, including tofu, mango and avocado just to name a few. We were both stuffed afterwards! The pornstar martini cocktails are also very good.”

“Excellent restaurant! We ordered chicken tikka, mushroom curry, butter naam, basmati rice with vegetables and sweet lassi. Everything wonderful!

The naam was perfectly buttery and the curry was on point! They serve the chili oil separately, so you can adjust the heat of the dish well.

Truly, one of the best Indian restaurants I've ever been to. I ate until I couldn't take it anymore, then I pushed a little more in, feeling sorry that I wouldn't eat it all.”

“A fantastic bar playing great, northern soul and motown tunes. Owners Sue and Jennifer were brilliant really friendly and welcoming. A good range of drinks including cocktails all reasonably priced , nice and relaxing atmosphere with lovely customers. Thanks to you both for helping to make our holiday fantastic and good luck for the future. Hope to see you next year, love and best wishes Steve and Sue ??‍♂️?‍♀️?.”

“Very pleasant place, perfect for having a beer, chatting, and playing darts with music at a great volume. Fernando's service and attention were impeccable. I recommend it and will come back here as soon as I can. ???”

“Good menu, good food, rapid service. Very efficiently run. It was very noisy on Sunday lunchtime when sitting undercover, as it was busy. Difficult for conversation. Would want to sit outside next time. Certainly worth a visit. It's in a nice quiet area in the countryside.”

“We had a coffee and bought souvenirs. The little shop is great, it has quality and unique Algarve products for you to give as a gift or buy for yourself. The place is very beautiful, it has a beautiful view, but unfortunately, in the summer, the heat is uncomfortable. The air conditioning does not work, which makes the stay a little uncomfortable.”

“Very attentive staff, fantastic food and nice location!

There were a group of 7 of us and we had a mixed selection of starters and mains, with 3 of us having excellent steaks. All the food was top quality and cooked expertly. This is definitely a case of quality over quantity, and I’d recommend booking in to this excellent restaurant.

Kid-friendliness: Yes this is kid friendly!”

“Excellent view of the sea and cliff.Fun environment. Live Brazilian music on announced dates with a pagode band with Brazilian musicians.Very good Brazilian and international food.Wine cellar well served with wines and gins.A place to go all year round. I highly recommend it!”

“Really, really nice, authentic and friendly neighborhood spot. Try it. Mostly also "sopa do Dia"= Soup of the day,. Very good tosta mista and bifana! Uma Dona muito simpatica. 2 parking spaces in front. Muito ”

“Bar in Carvoeiro with a fancy name and cheap cocktails - what's not to like? Do you have mussels? No. But if you want to eat them, there are plenty of places nearby. The service is uniquely friendly, a kiss to the dear ladies who served us and who enrich our Algarve.”

“So happy we came across this lovely cafe. We had a pescatarian, a vegetarian and a very hungry teenager and there was something for everyone on the menu. Really fresh ingredients and very good value. The staff were lovely and there was an amazing selection of cakes that we brought home. Thank you”

“This was our first visit to Primavera and we were impressed. The location is very nice and there is inside and outside seating. I would recommend a reservation as this restaurant is popular. Service was good and the pasta dishes were excellent. I had the gluten free mixed seafood pasta. There are many gluten free options. Highly recommend.”

“Taste Restaurant is a must-visit for anyone in Carvoeiro, especially those with children. Its commitment to quality food, combined with a family-oriented approach, makes it a standout establishment. I wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone looking for a dining experience that caters excellently to adults and children alike.

Parking: Plenty of (free) public parking spaces near the restaurant.

Kid-friendliness: The staff were wonderfully attentive, providing crayons and paper and toys to keep the kids happy right from the start.”

“What a great find, we loved our dining experience here! As a designer, I have to first point out the beautiful architectural details in this restaurant. The building is very old, and it has some of the most gorgeous Torrazzo and brass inlay floors I've ever seen, and the plaster on the walls was incredible. It even had Venetian style plaster details, whoever did this space is probably no longer with us. This type of Plaster work is only done by very few people these days. That said, it was a fantastic French vibe, the pictures online do not do this space justice. It is way cuter inside! I love a linen tablecloth. I love that the servers all had white pressed shirts on. The menu was exactly what you would expect for French fair, it was very traditional and served on white plates. Everything we ate was delicious. The crabcake was definitely crab forward, no filler here. My husband had the white fish and I had the steak frites, we switched entrées halfway through so that we could each try each other's and everything was delicious! We were sat at a two top in the same room as the bar and I loved watching the bartender make all the cocktails to order. That was very impressive. This is just a personal note, but when my husband and I go out for dinner, sometimes we are sat at a two top and when this typically happens, we're normally joined by another couple at some point in the reservation. Now this doesn't bother my husband and I because we always like to eavesdrop and listen to everyone's conversations, and we were lucky enough that the couple next to us was on a second or third date and it was not going well. 😂😂 entertaining for us to say the least but if you're someone that really wants a private dinner, this might not be the restaurant for that, as the tables are close together. We came to Hemingway‘s because we were going to a candlelight show at the art center across the street, we will absolutely be back. This was such a spectacular date night!! We will be back!”

“Lovely seaside restaurant! Came here for sunset dinner & we LOVED it! Recommending the sardines & octopus. Pistachio desert was also fantastic. Very good price/quality/quantity ratio, especially given the amazing location and view. Very proactive and friendly service as well. We were lucky that a reservation didn’t show up as it was apparently fully booked, so best to reserve beforehand. Recommend!”

“Great Bar, great staff & service, the food was excellent & as one of our party is a picky eater, they made what she requested with no fuss as all freshly made, great experience.”

“Amazing food, we tried the chicken skewers and the cutlets in pepper sauce and we loved it! Very rich and abundant.
The pitcher of sangria is very very good. I recommend it”

“Nice little corner spot to watch the world go buy with a few beers. Nice wraps and salads. Many people smoking (which is a bummer for us). I get that this is outdoors but still nice to have a no-smoking area option..”

“Delicious restaurant, really worth the value for money, the dish serves really well and has a kids menu. Caring people.

Kid-friendliness: It has a kids menu with several options at an excellent price.”
