In advance - pre-order is a must -. The concept of the place is, just one main course (grilled chicken with or without piri piri). This only applies to the pre-ordered number of visitors. This means that people who arrive like this are turned away even though there are plenty of tables available. Actually fair and sustainable because no food is wasted.
But based on that, I can't understand the rave reviews of this place. OK price performance absolutely fine. Olives and salads as starters were very good, but I can't understand 4 to 5 stars for grilled chicken with fries.

Un poulet Piri piri digne de ce nom. Il est excellent, tendre et bien cuit, avec son petit goût fumé et le piri piri maison pour les amateurs de repas pimenté. Un restaurant typique sur le bord de la route et un voyage culinaire dans un cadre magnifique. Un accueil très chaleureux de la part des serveurs. À ne pas manquer si vous passez dans les alentours de Monchique ????

Restaurant where you can eat chicken or chicken, but delicious ?. A space without pretension, family business owned by Dona Idalina, a very friendly and hard-working lady.
5-star service, a tomato salad full of flavor, very good chicken.
The lemon tart is delicious and without excess sugar.
I definitely recommend

I've been coming here since I was little. When I'm in Portugal, I look forward to Edelina's piri piri chicken. The starters are also delicious! However, recommended if you are in the area.

Great little roadside restaurant. The unique dish: piri piri chicken and home fries are delicious. The ham as a starter is famous. Meringue and walnut tart for dessert, a treat. The owner and the waitress are very nice. Unbeatable value for money. €36.80 with 4 beers, 2 coffees, ham, bread, carrots, olives, 2 desserts and 2 main courses. It's simple and homemade. To try with your eyes closed. thank you for your kindness

Down to earth, family run restaurant. Set food, simple but delicious. Presunto, cheese, bread, salad, piri piri chicken, chips washed down with wine or beer. Very friendly, busy place. Don't expect massive menu, fine dining. Just a great authentic place to eat. Excellent value for money.

We stopped on our way to visit the area. Lucky us, the very friendly boss found us a table. It is better to book before coming.Unique menu: tomatoes, onions, peppers in vinaigrette, then THE famous Piri piri chicken accompanied by homemade fries. This is chili chicken cooked on the barbecue, it is possible to add sauce for chili lovers.As an aperitif, I highly recommend the raw ham which is a real delight!With two drinks for the aperitif and two menus, we paid less than €40 for two people.Simple place, tasty cuisine, warm welcome. I highly recommend this restaurant!Thank you for your kindness !
