9 Best Seafood Restaurants near Fatima

“The entire experience at this restaurant was five stars. Starting with the service and friendliness, always present, from Mr João Rodrigues. The food was delicious and we loved both dishes chosen, with the entire service between starters and main course going very quickly and without any major delays, a very positive point. Although we were already full, given the quality of the food and the feedback on the desserts, we had to try it, equally five stars for both.
First time we went to this restaurant but certainly the first of many, we recommend it to everyone who has the opportunity to go to this restaurant.

“If you are visiting Fatima during a package tour in Spain or Portugal, it is a good place to visit if you have enough money.
It's right next to Fatima Cathedral, so it would be a good idea to go to the 9:30 p.m. prayer after dinner.

There don't seem to be many Korean reviews, so I'm leaving a review.
While looking for another restaurant, we visited for dinner at the recommendation of our guide.
The overall conversation is conducted in English.

In fact, I think Google Translate will suffice as long as you keep your ears open.

Apollo Caffe focuses on snacks and drinks, while Prive focuses on food such as seafood and alcohol.
Since there is only one door, my parents chose Prive because it has a quieter atmosphere.

Angelo? Was it Mr. Angelo? The person was in charge of serving, but the overall response was slow due to the large number of orders from visitors to the store, but it was acceptable.
It seems that the overall dish can be customized according to personal taste, so the ordering time for each table seems to be longer.

Even though I didn't tell them how they knew I was Korean, I said hello and thank you, so my parents liked me.
Satisfaction with the service was very high, and I gave a tip (10 euros) because I wanted my parents to give me a tip because it was not a waste of money.
(It is said that tipping culture is not active in Portugal, but if my parents are satisfied, they also tip in Korea.)

I did some research on the menu and ordered quickly just by looking at the menu, but they also provide a tablet with photos of the food, so you can order just by looking at the photos of the food.

When it comes to food, you can eat a lot of beef in Korea too.
Grilled Iberian pork

I ordered the arroze de gambas because the shrimp rice received a lot of positive reviews. The octopus we had previously considered was sold out...

He wanted to eat food that tasted like vongole, so he asked for pasta noodles to be added to clams at bulhao pato.

And the food was so delicious that I ate an additional 1 kg of oysters.

In the case of wine, I would like you to recommend a sparkling wine priced between 30 and 50 euros.
They recommended a 36 euro wine and told me to decide after tasting, but my parents just wanted to confirm so I decided.

There is no wine list, but the waiter recommends wine based on the dish ordered.

Afterwards, I drank a glass of porto tonic and my mother liked it so much that she ordered another glass and asked to split it into two glasses.

Satisfaction with food and alcohol was very high.
There was cilantro in the food, and my parents liked cilantro, so they were even more satisfied.
If you do not prefer cilantro, it is recommended to ask for it to be omitted.

Actually, since I don't know the overall price of Portuguese food, I don't think it's bad if you evaluate the cost-effectiveness based on Korean standards.

The guide mentioned that it was still expensive, but...
I think it would be better not to order a platter or seafood set.

A total cost of approximately 150 euros was incurred.
If it's a lot, it's a lot. If it's a little, it's a small amount. My parents said they were satisfied with the amount that far exceeded the cost.
Even I, who is not a very picky eater, was satisfied.

Thank you to the waiter who once again created a pleasant atmosphere.“

“We stayed next door to the restaurant, and on our first day I broke a bone in my foot. Paulo and his team couldn’t have been more helpful. We had 2 takeaway meals so far, we had chicken piri piri and chips & rice , last night a large Seabass to share , both meals were amazing and we are planning a further meal in the next few days, don’t miss out on this restaurant… Amazing“

“My experience was simply fantastic. I liked everything, the place, the service, the food, the company of my cousins. I had the honor of hearing a beautiful explanation about each of the wines that were served. I was amazed. And I am grateful for the care with which we were treated.“

“I'm familiar with the space, the restaurant had coffee yesterday and I'll end with a photo that says it all, a note to the employee who chose my dessert, I loved everything, her friendliness, her commitment, her professionalism, I'll be back.

Back and with the whole family, once again divine 11/21
And I never tire of saying I'll go back again, I think it's one of those restaurants that we choose to visit every month
Thank you for everything“

“Make sure you have a reservation! This place fills and is popular. I believe there are 2 seatings. People were waiting for the second seating while diners were inside. Seafood is popular. We chose not to go with Cataplana, which is one of the popular dishes for seafood spaghetti and grilled swordfish. Because we were sharing, the pasta was brought out first. Nice portion with clams, mussels and shrimp in a light tomato sauce. The swordfish was tasty , with potatoes and a few veggies. It’s served with their special sauce. I don’t think you can go wrong with food there. Server and owner all coming by to make sure all was well. Nice little personal touches.“

“A place to return to again soon.
Family lunch.
Today, August 10th, we were at this restaurant, and we loved everything, including the toilets, which smell really good.
The starters, the main dishes, the plating, as they say, the eyes eat too, the palate, everything.
Our congratulations to Chef Lurdes and her staff, who were very helpful and always present.
Thanks“

“The restaurant is lovely and the Antonia is excellent. Been coming here since a couple of years. Being a vegetarian she adapted some of the typical Portuguese dishes and they were really tasty. This year we had the chance to experience Show Cooking - which was a very different experience. She was cooking just for us in front of our table. The best part she also shared some of our favourite recipes. Definitely a restaurant to go to if you visit Carvoeiro. See you next time Antonia.“

“I haven't been to the seafood restaurant Aquário for a few years. Not because I was displeased with something, it just hasn't worked out. Today I returned, and I can say that I will be back soon. Superb dinner. Cockles, clams and grilled squid like I haven't eaten in a long time. In my opinion a confection worthy of Michelin stars. Congratulations to the management and continue to provide moments like these to those who visit you.“
