14 Best Seafood Restaurants near Moinhos

“Very tasty burgers and crispy fries with a direct sea view. You have to order at the counter inside and the food is then brought to the table.

Vegetarian options: There was also a vegetarian burger. This was also very tasty.“

“I'm just thrilled. Totally nice owner couple who take care of all guests' needs. Always up for a joke, after several visits we can vouch for good food. Even things that weren't on the menu were fulfilled...
OBRIGAD... Oh, from Helmut and family ?“

“An absolute tourist spot. But very tasty food and it's a wonderful place to sit at the top. Basically good service. One caveat: we ordered a port wine without looking at the menu again. The port wine then appeared on the bill at €35 for 0.1 l. Luckily we had a glass for me ;-). And it wasn't even on the menu. He was already tasty. But a note about the price would have been very appropriate.“

“Although from the outside it is a place that does not attract your attention and you would not enter, inside there is great quality in relation to the food.
Without a doubt, the grelhadas limpets are a must and the fish are large portions and of great quality.

One of the best places to eat in Sao Miguel.“

“A place where local people go, which we really liked. We made snails that reminded us of times gone by when it was a very common dish in our house. It's a simple, unpretentious place and you feel at home, and the food is very good. The service was very correct and friendly, the whole a wonderful experience.“

“Chose this restaurant for our first night in the area (always a good test!) and we were not disappointed. Lovely friendly welcome, great setting out on the terrace, perched on a Cliffside and some lovely fresh pink to get the evening off to a start. The fish was delicious and we were all delighted with the dishes and flavours. Definitely worth booking to get a nice table.“

“Maré Cheia was a pleasant surprise. Hidden among the houses of Moinhos, it is a very rustic restaurant but with excellent food. The feeling is that of being invited into the owners' home.
Upon your arrival the owner will show you the fresh fish of the day with the relative prices.
We had an octopus (one of the best I've ever eaten) and a boca negra (fresh). With dessert, coffee and water we spent €44.
Super recommended even if you are not on the road.“

“This fish restaurant is one of the best of my life, the extremely fast service in 10 minutes all my dishes were served and the waiters are adorable and in addition to having eaten very well I had the chance to see dolphins in the sea ​​during my meal. I recommend the mussels, they are delicious. I highly recommend this restaurant if you want to eat well.“

“Family dinner with the aim of eating the roasted octopus that my father and uncle loved. But we were too late and there was no more. We opted for snacks and what snacks. Wonderful octopus stew but what I liked most was the fried chicharros. I've never had ones so crispy and tasty! Coming back to repeat these snacks and the roasted octopus.“

“Ate very well, the fish was excellent and fresh. However, at the time of the bill we noticed that we had been given an unsolicited entrée, which we thought was a gift from the house; the bottle of wine arrived already open, we would have preferred to see it opened at the table. It's a shame because it is a very valid and characteristic place“

“Agua d'Alto beach is great. The restaurant is beautiful, the atmosphere is good, on the seaside it's great. The service is OK, but they are quickly overwhelmed by events as soon as the customer base builds up. Arrive early, say before 6:30 p.m. to get better service.

Parking: You can park on the street, if it is full, there is a parking lot at the top of the hill which can hold a lot of cars. Don't worry if there are a lot of people, they are not necessarily at the restaurant, they are possibly at the beach.“

“Breathtaking 180° view of the port, great choice of fish of the day, but a team overwhelmed by its success: random waiting which can be interminable (1 hour), while half of the terrace was empty... incomprehensible. Conflicts between staff, very nice to customers. Many customers have given up. But excellent grilled fish, hearty and ultra fresh. Very simple accompaniments.

Wheelchair accessibility: Numerous steps at the entrance, WC not accessible. I advise against.“

“Arrived in Ribeira Grande yesterday and quickly found something very good for dinner. It is superbly decorated in the Azores style. The food (fish) was very tasty. It's a fish restaurant, but it doesn't smell like fish at all, which is a very good sign of quality. The house is very clean, the staff is extremely friendly and accommodating. The wine recommendation was also very appropriate. And by the way, you pay humane prices for the wine and not five times as much as in Germany.“

“Super-recommended. We took the daily fish assortment, very good quality and large portions. The fish soup is also very tasty.
Very decent prices for the quality of the product. Terrace with sea views is also very pleasant (the sunset looks perfect).
Reservation recommended.“
