27 Best Mediterranean Restaurants in Loule

“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.“

“Go here regularly for lunch. At first it is very easy to miss the restaurant. The outside area is completely overgrown and you have to look closely from the street to even notice it. Sitting outside is also very idyllic. The interior is more of a long hose.But now to the food: simply phenomenal. I usually always eat the very inexpensive (emphasis on value) menu, which changes weekly, consists of two courses and where you can always choose from two alternatives for a starter and a main course. The desserts have to be ordered and paid for separately, but each one is a poem.The restaurant is run by a married couple. He, an Italian, cooks and she, a Belgian, runs the service. Both perfect! The wine list is manageable, but also lists excellent and more expensive wines. You can't really go wrong here - probably not even in the evening if you eat a la carte, but I haven't tried that yet.“

“It is a very nice place with good service and healthy, appetizing food. Juices and desserts you can't miss. The attention of Yna, our waitress who spoke to us in Spanish and advised us very well. Don't miss this place if you like healthy and/or vegetarian food ???✨

Vegetarian options: Everything is delicious and healthy, the natural juices are very delicious. Great service and attention. You can't miss the desserts. Highly recommended!!“

“Traditional food restaurant, located in the center of town, next to the market, and that responds to the canons of a "real" Portuguese restaurant, not a place prepared to extract money from tourists. The place is large and the waiters do their best to serve you in a place that is packed with people. The bathroom is very clean and has paper and soap. I think it's a good option in Loulé. I remove a star, because there is a discrepancy between the prices that appear on the menu and those that appear on the bill, so it's time to review it.

Vegetarian options: There are vegan options such as vegetable soup and tortillas.

Kid-friendliness: There were children in the premises“

“Husband and wife run the place, very friendly. Our apartment was right next door and we stopped there often. They offer light snacks like sandwiches, but also have fish & meat of the day updated daily. We enjoyed various meals like fresh tuna, chicken, soups, etc. Very casual atmosphere, indoor and outdoor seating, stay as long as you like. Closed on Sundays.“

“Food, Service & Ambience just perfect. Everyone in our group enjoyed their meal. We dine at this restaurant on a fairly frequent basis and will continue to do so because of the excellent experience we have each time we visit. It does not matter if it is just the two of us or a party of friends, the staff at AQuinta always give us a warm welcome!“

“Heerlijke pizza’s, goed belegd en heel veel keuze! Fijne bediening, raad deze pizzeria zeker aan :)

Vegetarian options: Er zijn zeker vegetarische opties

Dietary restrictions: Je kunt je eigen pizza samenstellen“

“Refined cuisine, well-prepared dishes with local and fresh products, fair prices given the quality, you should ignore some comments... Everyone is nourished, but few know how to distinguish the flavors... I highly recommend it and I will definitely be back“

“What a fantastic place.We were greeted at the door with a handshake and taken to our table.The wait staff were great, very friendly as Nd spoke very good English.The food was outstanding and a good variety of vegetarian options too.Made to feel very welcome and not rushed to finish up and leave even though we were the last ones thereWould definitely return“

“The best 'Francesinha' in all Sotovento.We stopped by change in Loulé and we got quickly pleased to find Colheita Fresca, delighted with the owners hospitality.We would have loved to try more dishes but the francesinha was full filling.Great flavour, homemade stock and homemade spicy sauce.We would love to come back but I believe the owner is retiring soon, a pity, but well deserved rest.A shame you didn't have 'Licor de Merda' from Cantanhede in your bar ?“

“We discovered this excellent space through the place where we spent the night in Loulé and it couldn't have gone better. We were 4 adults and 3 children and we went to celebrate my daughter's birthday. We ate the cheese garlic bread with the detail of adding the oregano, followed by lasagna, shrimp risotto with asparagus and spaghetti bolognese, all washed down with lambrisco sangria. The artisanal ice creams are divine and the chocolate mousse was wonderful. Everything cost €100 and the service provided by all the staff was something that left us speechless. Definitely repeating.“

“Went there for lunch yesterday. My wife had chicken with potatoes, I had pork with mussels and salad. Both dishes very tasty and big portions. The owner spoke good English,he was very friendly. This is the place where the locals eat,always a good sign. We both had dessert, I had rice pudding, my wife fruit. The next time I am in Loulé I will go to Apolo restaurant again.“

“We just spent two weeks in Portugal and Spain having amazing meals, and THIS restaurant was the absolute best meal we had overall. What a treasure! The fresh, interesting and clean delicious dishes here are very memorable. Everyone in our group of six loved their meals so much, we passed them all around so each of us could try each one. It was difficult to settle on a favorite. The owner is wonderful and helpful. The chef is so talented and makes each dish fresh to order. If you are traveling from abroad, this is the local, authentic experience you do not want to miss. Thank you for an unforgettable evening!“

“Tapas and snacks at their best. I recommend the corvina ceviche and the puffed cheeks. The feathers are very good too. The wine list is top notch. We only had the tiramisu for dessert but we would have had a few more servings. Now, the service is very disorganized and with little attention to the customer. Attention, which in a place that takes your eyes off your face, is at least due. Nice space with live music, beautiful bathroom. The only sin is the absurd prices.“

“It's a good restaurant where we ate well.
Quite a few people, the dishes were perfectly fine and he speaks French, it's very good, nothing to complain about.

Parking: It's a very large car park, no problem for the place originally, it's also a nightclub.

Kid-friendliness: Yes, the establishment is suitable for children, there are even outdoor games.

Wheelchair accessibility: Establishment adapted to wheelchairs without problem.“

“An extraordinary experience in an unlikely place. If you're looking for something everyday, don't come here. If you're looking for something different and with quality, you won't be disappointed. I recommend. Kids friendly.“

“Have a nice meal here, we both had the sea bream, which was served with potatoes and the first time in our holiday - vegetables! Most places only seem to serve potatoes and you buy a side salad. We had the bread, olives and sardine pate to start, and a half litre of house red. Nice coffee. Enjoyable meal, felt pretty full, good service.“

“(Translated by Google) Small traditional restaurant far from the tourist traps.Reduced card which proves that it is not fresh.Very competitive price, fresh fries and very good meat.Welcoming staff.A good address, you have to book because there are a lot of locals who eat there.(Original)Petit resto traditionnel loin des attrapes touristes.Carte réduite ce qui prouve que ne c’est du frais.Prix très compétitif frites fraîches et viandes très bonne.Personnel accueillant .Une bonne adresse , il faut réserver car il y a beaucoup de locaux qui y mangent.“

“We go here for lunch almost once a week. The food is traditional Portuguese and very tasty. I always end up ordering the Porco de amêijoas (pork with clams) it’s delicious. And you have to try the desserts. My favourite is Arroz doce but they are all worth a try and homemade. Anna and her son, Carlos, speaks English so no language barrier.

Vegetarian options: Only salad available

Wheelchair accessibility: Accessible by wheelchair“

“This place was recommended by a local person, who claimed "it's not a tourist trap". Well, the fish (fried sardines) were very good. As I don't eat potatoes, I was offered steamed vegetables. And I ordered bread, olives and a salad too. They were all very good.
But I did not expect to be charged 4 euros for the steamed vegetables. Let's assume it was a mis-understanding...“

“We arrived early, around 8pm and there was no one sitting... It was full in no time!
The food is good, it was one of the best meats I've ever eaten. There were 6 of us and we ordered 4 dishes to share. The picanha and the chunks of vileta were our favorites! We didn't think anything special about the medallions with cheese, it's meat with cheese ??‍♀️ We had done well without them, I confess.
The Cod, for our taste, needed a little salt. The onion was great! It made the dish very appetizing, it was a happy choice.

The portions are quite generous so, if you wish, you can adopt the sharing concept.

The desserts, the medronho pudding, looked great and those who tried it said it was wonderful. Dom Rodrigo's puff pastry is not surprising, a little dry even, due to the puff pastry...

It is a restaurant to recommend and visit again, without a shadow of a doubt!“

“I will come back without a doubt. 5 star fish. More importantly, I had the carvery, it was 5 stars. For the first time, the carvery was prepared on the spot without leaving meat on the skewer. Which gave me confidence with the quality of the meat.“

“Beautiful restaurant a little off the beaten path in a wonderful garden. A typical family business, everyone helps out. Excellent food at fair prices. Sitting outside in the garden under the open sky, good food, good company... what more could you want.“

“(Translated by Google) Incredible service, great toast and toast on homemade bread, delicious orange juice! I highly recommend!(Original)Atendimento incrível, tosta e torrada no pão caseiro ótimas, sumo de laranja delicioso! Super recomendo!“

“A bit tricky to find so stick it on your favourites on your satnav. Good friendly service and my attempts at Portuguese were not laughed at. Friendly staff , good local food , excellent garlic prawns sold by weight (300 gm is ok for a starter for 2 or a main) and look for specials. The house wine is very good and quite inexpensive. It is what we call a twice-a-week place. In summer you may need to book to get an outside table“

“Unfortunately, this is the first time I've come to comment, and it's a worse experience. Every other time, I loved the restaurant and the food, without a doubt it will always be my favorite restaurant in Marshinng. But, I already had the piano in my selection, but... the photograph, as it was used for me, is really illustrative. Half and the meat was not tasty, it tasted a little bad, it must have been frozen, but really frozen. Now, the other 10 times I went there, excellent food. This last one went less well.“

“I gave it 4 stars because in fact what you ask is everything is top...however doses, like to try it at the price of serious doses...in other words, it's good but expensive and in ridiculous quantity, you should review it and have a normal dish at the same time. price of what is today the "sample" dish but be careful, it's a very nice place...“
