50 Best Seafood Restaurants near Moncarapacho

The only reason I'm not giving it 5 stars is because I was bitten by melgas (inevitable summer bad luck and because I thought the bread was weak) besides the best in the Algarve“

“Very good cataplana, we ordered the monkfish and seafood one, there were 2 of us, we had plenty left over and it was spectacular, we couldn't resist trying the fig pudding either. Highly recommended for quality, price and the treatment of the waiter and the cook who came to ask. It is not the typical tourist place, a local restaurant with traditional Portuguese food where what mattered was the food, not the decoration.“

“Another surprising restaurant in the Algarve! We didn’t expect much but were pleasantly impressed. Our waiter was extremely pleasant and we had fun joking with him. The raw oysters were the best we’ve had in Portugal accompanied by a nice inexpensive white wine. Our Portuguese style tuna was a welcome change from the regular seared tuna and much appreciated. Finished off with cheesecake and a local delicacy, a carob, fig and almond tart… superb! One of our best lunches in the Algarve!“

“An excellent choice, we ate fresh fish, unbeatable cod, and the desserts were homemade and very good.
Friendly and kind waiter from the first moment, we went without a reservation and we were 12 people and he treated us very well. 100% recommended and if we return it is a safe visit.“

“Small family-run restaurant a stone's throw from the center of Faro, the owner welcomed us in an extremely kind and friendly way, the fish Cataplana was an experience to absolutely try, all at a more than excellent price! We will definitely be back!“

“I wasn't very sure, in the area it seems that it is to get money from tourists, but the reviews were good.
And it was true, we ate very well and at a good price. The portions are huge and although they are Pakistani, they nail the Portuguese recipes very well. All very good.
We ordered some oysters, octopus in tempura which was very tender, cod also very good and a very generous portion and what we liked the most is an octopus that they make like golden cod, delicious.
All at a very correct price.“

“Van de vele restaurantjes hier aan de boulevard was hier de bezetting het hoogste. Meestal duid dit op een goede kwaliteit. Na onze maaltijd kan ik beamen dat in ieder geval de gerechten die wij besteld hadden werkelijk van hoge kwaliteit waren (pepersteak & zwaardvis steak). Verder hele goede indruk van personeel en entourage. Echt een aanrader!“

“Magnificent restaurant to taste one of their different Cataplanas options.We went with the monkfish, clams and shrimp, accompanied with pepper, onion and a lot of cilantro (personally what I liked the least).A cataplana to share between two, if you don't ask for anything else, is more than enough. Includes some fries separately.We will repeat if we return to the area.“

“Great food with the extra touch of brilliant presentation. We tried to get a table but the restaurant was fully booked, so we booked to come back another night. It was definitely worth it, the staff are also very nice. It is a place you must try when visiting.“

“A wonderful little fish restaurant. The clams were spectacular. The service more than made up for the lack of English skills with a lot of friendliness. And you can also communicate with your hands and Google Translator. The view of the more perfectly supported the great food.“

“New visit and there are several. Very simple family-run restaurant with terrace. Informal but efficient and friendly service. Rui in charge of the grill; For our taste, it tends to become overcooked over time, so sometimes the fish arrives at the table overcooked. Very good quality of all types of fish (turbo, sole, croaker, sea bass, sea bream, snapper). For starters, some splendid and fresh sardines and a portion of medium-sized but very delicious clams. For seconds, a wonderful 1.5kg snapper for two for €40 and a portion sea bass for €15 (on another visit we ordered a sea bass of about 2.5kg for three for €60, a bit overcooked, unfortunately). Unbeatable prices. They accompanied it with a platter of delicious homemade fries that they don't charge. Desserts only acceptable. To drink well-poured beers.
The only downside is that they don't accept reservations and it fills up quickly, mornings and nights, so you have to wait in line. Highly recommended.“

“Good service especially by the morning team. Possibility of buying packages of 1/2 kg of clams, already purified, considering the current prices. Excellent quality shrimp from the coast. Perhaps the best seafood restaurant in Olhão. I recommend“

“Great food and great service. We had fish tacos, lovely and fresh. Then sushi, which was a great selection, some interesting varieties - all were very nice, well made and well presented. Service was very good, and cocktails were great. All in it was very good value too. Would def go again.“

“Everything great.
From the space, to the staff and of course the food.
Clams, tiger prawns and cod.
Everything top!!
Congratulations and thanks for the experience.
Space to revisit to try other menu options.“

“O coreto restaurants is my favourite Portuguese restaurants while going to lunch or dinner in tavira very nice location and great foos with friendly staff.highly recommended with various choices for foods my favourite is house style cod fish and rice with selfish“

“Restaurant recommended by Turismo de Faro.

1 year later I returned for another beautiful lunch.
Again excellent food and superb service.
5 stars for the friendliness of all employees.
I highlight Anita whose friendliness and grace enchants us.

“Wonderful restaurant which takes us into a typical atmosphere!
The waitresses are very friendly.

The dishes are delicious and plentiful.

The quality/price ratio is excellent ??

I recommend it 100% ?“

“We were eating there, the place is perfect to then take the boat to Culatra and you have views of the port since it is right there. The food is very delicious and well priced. They have a variety of homemade desserts.

Kid-friendliness: They have high chairs for children and a changing table in the bathrooms.“

“This restaurant is really worth the detour, the ocean opposite the owners, a brother, a sister, both great servers also the kitchen very good attention. Be aware that in this restaurant you have some of the fish that come from the fishponds but they have a display of quality fresh fish caught at sea which is necessarily a little more expensive, but of very good quality, and there this restaurant will not let you make no mistake in the quality of the products I highly recommend this restaurant“

“A place we found by chance...a very charming place, very delicious food at a good price...grilled tuna and great coquinas. Very friendly staff and delicious coffee. Also right across the street is one of the best ice cream shops I've ever tried.“

“It is a small restaurant located in the Olhao Fish Market. The charm you have is the food. The quality and the preparation. It is eaten on the terrace located on the pavement of the street. The staff is very attentive and they are waiting for all the details. We ate a very good arros de tamboril (rape rice), different from how it is made at home in Catalonia, but in its style, it was very good and well made. The price of €58 for two people seemed fantastic. Highly recommended.“

“Very good restaurant, with a wide choice of grilled fish...
Top quality and freshness!!
Service and welcome ?
Just missing a wider choice of aperitif with small accompaniments for our part..
A very good carob and fig cake to enjoy without moderation!
Best wishes !“

“Restaurant with a quality of 10. We ate exquisite grilled anchovy with garlic and parsley for seasoning. Also spectacular fried anchovies with rice and peas. For dessert, sweet liquor from the Algarve area with a squeezed lemon, impressive.

Parking: Parking in a row on the street on both sides of the road

Kid-friendliness: Family atmosphere“

“Hi
I enquired about gluten free options as I am coeliac, I could not have got a better service tonight outstanding so attentive to ensure everything was correct. My meal was just fantastic as we're all my family. As for the atmosphere just so so nice. Thank you we really appreciated your kindness“

“Great experience-Freshly made grills-Fresh seafood-Seasonal fish-Cataplana to order-Fish pasta-Plovo stewed to order-Clam rice to order-Fish stew to orderPhotos taken in summer 2022 and some are taken by customersBecause it's only in summer and the sardines are good and fat?Family atmosphere, typical restaurant“

“Very good place on a tourist street. Although it is on the typical bar street, it is a small place with several tables on the street.
The staff was very friendly and attentive and the food was very delicious. We ordered clams, garlic shrimp (not in the photo), grilled octopus and frango grelado (grilled chicken) for the little one.
A bottle of white wine, a juice and an ice cream and we paid €89
It would just remove the singer from the bar next door, but it was part of the show.
It is worth having dinner here, other tables ordered the cod and seafood cataplana which looked very good.“

“Good sushi and pretty good Thai food. The sushi was fresh and flavorful, but the Thai noodle dish lacked a little pizzazz. The warm fried tuna uramaki was the overall winner, but I do love fried foods!
The setting for this nice small restaurant is lovely, right on the river at the far end of the esplanade where all of the tour boats leave.
And the prices were very reasonable. I would go back. A good experience.

Wheelchair accessibility: It seemed like it was fully accessible. Outdoor patio and restaurant all on the ground level. And the bathrooms may be a little tight, but again, no stairs or barriers.“

“By far the best vieiras we've ever tried. The prawns in garlic and clams were delicious ?. The service was quick, although the food took some time to be served, but the quality of the food was superb ?. We highly recommend this place. We shall be back again next year.“

“Good choice on our visit to Olhão. We ate inside as there was no room on the terrace, and we were very comfortable, very cool.

We ordered grilled sardines, a portion of six, a good size and very fresh, with very good flavor. Also a grilled squid, firm and with a notable charcoal flavor; Good size, for a pardon it is a main dish. It came with vegetables and chips. Correct prices, less than €20 each with a drink included. Very well located on the main street of the city.“

“Typical Portuguese in the midst of so much tourism, From the starters to the coffee, the food was extraordinary. The white sangria is sweet but very good, we opted for sea bream and grilled squid which were divine. Friendly employees especially the grill man. Without a doubt, a place to return!“

“If you want the best seafood stew you will ever try, you have to try Snack Bar Davi - don't let the name put you off thinking it's a snack bar - very much not, it's a fabulous street restaurant with food is to die for and how Davi does it for the prices he charges is unbelievable. Let take about the Caldeirada (Portuguese monster fish stew) - lordy me 2 langoustines, 6 king prawns, a drove of claims and 5 huge chucks of monkfish all slowly cooked in a shrimp broth boiled with potatoes. How does he do it for €30 for a couple is beyond me! Wine - forget buying an expensive bottle, his house wine @ €8 a litre is as good as any wine I've tasted and matches the main course perfectly. Caution - You have to book this place, pop past and put your name down, you will not be disappointed (closed Tuesday)“

“A stones throw away from the middle of Tavira, this seems to be a favourite of locals for both meals and drinks. I was very impressed by the food choices ( check specials on wall as well as standard menu) and the price of the carafes of wine. Very popular, get there early or be prepared to wait.“

“(Translated by Google) Very good, a family restaurant, great quality food and well prepared. A very kind and helpful service.(Original)Muito bom, um restaurante familiar, comida de grande qualidade e bem confecionada. Um atendimento muito amável e prestável.“

“Strongly recommend. The dish of the day was octopus feijoada. It was great and very well served! Meal 12.50€ . Bottle of mateus rose wine €12.Great environment right in front of the estuary. Symparic staff. Cuban background music that day, excellent!!! Prices are very affordable, grilled fish €12, pot food for 2pax €26/28... we liked it a lot. to repeat“

“I'm glad I listened to the reviews. What a great success!
Super recommended. Kindness of service, exquisite food. Super good quantity and unbeatable quality price!!
We chose fish soup (very good), rice with octopus, grilled cod and stewed meat, everything was incredible, very delicious, you can tell that it is traditional and homemade food!“

“This restaurant is simply excellent. The food was beautifully prepared and the service was first rate. The portions were very generous and the fish dishes were delicious. Antonio made everything g very special for us. We will definitely be returning and could not recommend this restaurant more highly. It was recommended in the most recent edition of the Rough Guide to Portugal as one of the best restaurants in Olhao and we were not disappointed.“

“Very good cuisine. Well cooked and well prepared dishes. Gourmet and well served. With à la carte dishes that are off the beaten track. Competent, pleasant and smiling service.
Our small downside is the vinho verde which we found very flat. We will taste another one next time because we will return.“

“aMAZING food!!!! every single dish we ordered was so so good that i had to come and write a review ?? we had the breaded shrimps with sweet chilli sauce, the hot plate small prawns, the shellfish catalan, and the mixed iberian pork slices. all the seafood were so fresh and yummy (especially the oysters!!!) would definitely come back if i’m ever in the city again“

“(Translated by Google) Great facility and amazing staff with great service! Delicious food and homemade wine!(Original)Прекрасное заведение и восхитительный персонал с отличным сервисом! Очень вкусная еда и домашнее вино!“

“I discovered the place through a birthday party. What seemed like a classic restaurant turned out to be an excellent surprise. The staff is wonderful, super attentive (which is a real treat, here in the Algarve, where a genuine smile from those who serve us becomes increasingly difficult to find), the monkfish rice was served perfectly and in generous portions, the red wine served in a jug was fabulous, and the white wine sangria was delicious. Although we were a large group, nothing was missing on the table during the hours we were there. I highly recommend it. Ah... If you prefer to have a snack instead of lunch or dinner, I recommend you consider a plate of the wonderful snails prepared on site. The best in the Algarve!“

“Wanted a typical Portuguese meal in place more frequented by the locals rather than tourists. This was the place. Terrific food topped off by a nice glass of an Algarve red house wine. Staff were great to meet and offered some nice local places to visit. Loved these guys and their restaurant.“

“Seafood rice FULL of good quality seafood, lots of shrimp, mussels, clams, crab... very satisfying flavor. Quality spectacular price. Good food, good drink, good atmosphere. Two people, starters, beers, wine, seafood rice, dessert, 4 coffees and wishky, didn't reach €70. I recommend it, coming back!“

“A restaurant suitable for travelers who want to feel the local atmosphere and taste a variety of food.

It is located in a public market.
The advantage is that you can enjoy the atmosphere of the outdoor terrace and taste various local foods.

I calculated it by weight, and my food came out to about 8 euros. Bottled wine is 5 euros.“

“First time to Santa Lucia!!! We're attracted right to the restaurant. It helps you parked almost in front.Great service!!! Food was fantastic!!! Had a octopus in puff pastry!!! I didn't expect more seafood that just octopus ?!!! Shrimp and clams and I think scallops maybe. My wife had octopus pasta. We also had breaded octopus as a starter. Every ounce was delicious!!“

“The service is 5*. The staff were most helpful and without doubt went beyond expectations. The food was amazing. Enough choice and, cooked to perfection and delicious. Definitely worth a visit if you want quality. Also the location on the sea front is perfect. Please note this is a sister restaurant to the Bamboo next door which is also excellent.“

“Reasonable price, very fresh cod, sardines and squid.
Being a little late, there was no octopus left.
They treated us very well.
The dishes take a while to come out because they are being grilled right at that moment.

Edit: We repeat another day, sooner and try the octopus ?“
