We arrived first to eat, they kindly let us choose a table and 1.5 hours. Afterwards, they had not yet brought us the food, we complained twice, giving us time for them to give us a response and everything was evasive, finally and only when faced with the threat of leaving the table, they brought us what we ordered.
The rice with octopus was good, the rice and seafood stew was quite weak, ribs and sardines were good, obviously we no longer ordered coffee or dessert. I do not recommend.

?️ Excellent food: The fish was tasty and just right. ?? The red wine was exactly what I was looking for, with a flavor that met my expectations. The quality-price ratio is very good. ?✅ Highly recommended.

FATAL. I don't give it 0 stars, because you can't. 1 hour and 35 minutes waiting for the food, we have had to request it on several occasions. They take us for fools, according to them rice takes time.... and Sardines??? Have they gone fishing for them??? I do not recommend it, disastrous attention. We have not been able to order 1 more bottle of water, they have not attended to us.
The sardines and rice with octopus, good. The rice with regular seafood, the rice half undone and with pieces of shells, the rice didn't taste like anything.
My recommendation: Find another place.
The attention from the disastrous waitress???

Overall I would describe it as a bad experience. After ordering the dishes we had to wait more than 1 hour, the order had not arrived in the kitchen and, far from being honest, they lied to us for 45 minutes saying that the rice takes time to cook, when surrounding tables have eaten what same long before. At the final threat to leave, we were told to wait 10 more minutes and the food would come out. In total 1 hour and 40 waiting to eat some pretty good sardines and stale rice with pieces of mussel shell. Very bad experience ?

Cecilia and Yorman sightseeing around the lighthouse. We have been attended to by some super friendly guys, who helped us when we arrived, if you are passing through Portugal, and you have several days in the city and you want to do some type of exercise 100% recommended... thank you very much legend

Okay food but horrible service
Food is good to be honest, we were only customers there at the time and they were just smoking around us and for me that’s uncomfortable

A fairly spacious place, both the living room and the terrace. The menu is extensive, we took it to share since we don't eat too much, and another drink and dessert as an extra, they didn't have any problem with sharing the menu. The food was quite delicious and the atmosphere was cozy and beautiful.
Kid-friendliness: There were several families with children of all ages.

A true gem in Faro, this place was highly recommended by our tour guide and did not disappoint. Good delicious food with excellent portions, very nice house wine that complemented the meal well.

Food made with out love really sums it up, starters of sardine pate came from a pre packed tub! Not freshly made. Main course of squid came out uncooked with an array of vegetables which were cold, tasteless and some what unappetising, didn't eat a quarter of it. Restaurant wasn't interested. It was a table of five of us and no one was happy with the meal. Lots of better restaurants locally.

Food made without love.
I had dinner at Taverna Modesto.
Ordered a small salad and Seafood Rice.
The service was very bad.
The salad was served and I had to ask for oil and vinegar. I was given an empty bottle of oil.
5 waiters looking at the tables and laughing among them leaving dirty dishes on the tables.
A waiter dressed with shorts that covered less skin than an underwear (probably that's the Tavern attraction?).
The Seafood rice was a watery tasteless dish with seafood of doubt quality.
The only positive note of my experience is the amazing smell of Frangipani flowers.
