“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.“

“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.“

“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“

“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.“

“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.“

“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“

“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.“

“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!“

“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.“

“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“

“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.“

“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.“

“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“

“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!“

“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.“

“Very nicely decorated restaurant, just next to the local market, with excellent food served in beautiful plates and very professional service provided by two lovely, and very kind waitresses. The “Cataplana” dish is a must: a mix of seafood and fish that is really worth trying! Desserts are very good as well. To sum up, a very good address not to miss…“

“Discovered this place by accident on the main drag in Olhão. Very typical traditional Portuguese restaurant. Speciality seems to be cataplana fish stews. In fact the restaurant bills itself as the ‘king of the cataplana,’ and it certainly lives up to that boast. My friend and I had the monkfish and prawn cataplana and it was AMAZING! Huge amounts of prawns and monkfish with loads of nicely cooked onion and tomato. Absolutely delicious. It was certainly big enough for three, maybe even four people with small appetites. It defeated us, sadly! With a very nice bottle of rose, olives, water, and a salad, the bill came to around €65, a complete bargain! Service was friendly and attentive. Would definitely recommend.“

“Cozy and quiet restaurant in one of the alleys in Olhão. The decor is minimalist with small details that don't make us forget that we are close to the sea. We opted for a clam starter and a typical dish from the area, "Raia Alhada" and what an excellent choice. Thank you very much.“

“(Translated by Google) Fabulous oysters, very good fried cuttlefish.A little pricey for the offer.Very friendly service.Probably a repeat despite the price.(Original)Ostras fabulosas, choquinhos fritos à algarvia muito bons.Um pouco caro para a oferta.Atendimento muito simpático.Provavelmente a repetir apesar o preço.“

“A very cozy quiet place. Delicious vegetable soups ?, fish ?, olives . I really like the atmosphere itself. There's always room. And there are always clients. It is comfortable to sit both in the hall and on the terrace. My husband and I fell in love with this family restaurant. We wish you good luck ?“
