Restaurants in Portimão

“I saw they had great reviews, I decided to dine in to find out, I was warmly welcomed and the meal was delicious ! I ordered an Indian Masala tea, chicken tandoori, pulao vegetable & cheese and garlic naan. Everything was yummy! I loved all of the chutneys! Great service, they were very friendly?”

“Davvero fantastico! Questo piccolo ristorante a conduzione familiare è eccezionale! Tutti i piatti vegetariano hanno il loro equivalente vegano e sono BUONISSIMI. I sapori sono davvero incredibili e i proprietari sono pronti a dare consigli sui piatti migliori.”

“Unfortunately we only ate there twice. The homemade lemonade and the freshly prepared snacks were extremely tasty and the price-performance ratio was also very good. Ambiance is simple but very clean.”

“Attention Attention: High recommendation!!!

We were on holiday in Portimao and wanted a pizza. We came across the restaurant through Google and ordered 3 pizzas to take away.

Owner very nice and caring - restaurant typically Portuguese - very sociable and the pizza was one of the best pizzas I have ever eaten in my life and the price for €11.50 was completely fine for what I would pay in Germany
Me more!
So dear people - absolute restaurant recommendation!! Everything was great and we'll be back on our next vacation!!!!”

“Recommended during our visit to the Sardine Museum in Portimao, very friendly welcome and in our language (French) varied menu and attractive prices with local white wine everything was delicious! The almond tart was a big hit with the children as was the tuna burger. The moderately spicy sardine/mackerel toasts were delicious!! Canned sardines and other fish on sale, we bring some home!! Address to discover and remember! Thanks to the Museum for this recommendation.”

“Friendly and caring staff, it only gets 3 stars due to poor reservation management. Of the 2 times I went there, one only accepted reservations until 12:30 pm... the other only after 9:30 pm and they still made me wait 45 minutes with people without appointments passing by.”

“Gooey, indulgent cookies. The triple chocolate was amazing! The staff were accommodating and friendly. He was really helpful and knowledgeable when we were choosing our cookies. I would 100% recommend and will be thinking about how delicious these cookies were when I am back home from holiday!”

“I've been to MAWE several times; At all times, the service was always attentive and personalized, noting that there is a demand for customer satisfaction. Regarding the food 10/10, huge variety of tapioca, sweet or savory, toast, açaí not to mention natural juices and smoothies, all very healthy and delicious. I strongly advise you to try it! ✨”

“One of the best burgers, if not the best, I've had in my life. Extremely fresh ingredients, notable for the difference in the sauces and ingredients that make up the burgers. I ate the Niagara and all I can say is that I loved it! It's fantastic. The red fruit lemonade was perfect, not too sweet, fresh with that touch of lemon ? refreshing. With three options for children. In addition to all this, it stands out for the diversity of craft beers available. To be repeated, without a doubt.”

“We had the pancakes with "nutella" and scrambled eggs on toast with added mushrooms. It wasn't anything to write home about, no special flavour, but good vegan options if you're around”

“In a word, AMAZING! Masala house is a 5-Star restaurant experience Beautiful
atmosphere, outstanding food/drinks and exceptional service! The atmosphere was layered with warm lighting, creating a casually sexy environment full of beautiful people. Tables,
chairs, and restrooms were clean and sanitary by excellent standards. The food was incredibly delicious! ur butter chicken was tasty and so
tender, it melted on our palettes like butter! The drinks were aromatic, refreshing and flavorful! Our waiter was EXCELLENT!! They really could not have been better. It was all delicious!! We even requested a second order on a few of the chosen dishes.
RECOMMENDED!!!

“If you're a fan of fresh, vibrant flavors and customizable bowls, Rocha Poke is a must! This poke café delivers high-quality ingredients, generous portions, and a laid-back atmosphere that makes it perfect for breakfast or lunch a casual meal. We've enjoyed both acai bowls for breakfast and poke bowls for lunch, both excellent. The milkshakes are the best we've ever had.”

“This Restaurant is definitely worth a visit if you like the traditional taste of Italian cuisine. All pizzas and pastas use fresh ingredients, the staff are extremely welcoming and they make you feel at home. They have a large terrace but it’s very comfortable to seat inside too. The atmosphere is great. To summarise: amazing food with great service. You can’t go wrong with them!!!”

“Cozy and pleasant place. Very tasty food, good presentation, fair prices and generous portions. Excellent service! Joy and enthusiasm are part of every team. I recommend!”

“Nice atmosphere, acceptable prices and delicious food. When the evening is full during peak season, the staff, who are actually plentiful, are a bit overwhelmed. Always different service. Intermediate orders simply didn't come to the table. Nevertheless, we were very satisfied ?”

“Absolutely deserves it status at a top restaurant. Had a taster menu and it was delicious from start to finish.

I’ve chosen not to post all courses so save the surprises but my stand outs were the squid dish which is probably in my top five dishes of all time. And also the orange tree.

Service and the experience was impeccable. Deserves the star.

Would go again.

Dietary restrictions: They substituted out for allergies to scallops, welks and clams.”

“Went here to grab a drink and snack. We had coffees and were given complimentary water. We shared a chocolate peanut butter banana bowl as weren’t too hungry. The portion was generous (I would have struggled to eat the full thing myself). The member of staff that served us was absolutely lovely. Great little place”

“The incredible site. We went for dinner one night and it was the best choice. They treated us very well, although the bar had few customers, the food was very good and with incredible table presentation. Highly recommended.”

“Comida excepcional; atendimento excepcional! Uma equipa fantástica. Quero agradecer especialmente ao Gonçalo, Sofia, Sr Hernani e ao Emanuel

Wheelchair accessibility: They have a ramp”

“Tudo excelente e a Cristina é maravilhosa ❤️😍🥰”

“A brilliant place to get to know the local hospitality, cuisine and food culture in the best possible way. I was there several times and was thrilled every time!”

“One of my favourite bars in Portimao, for sitting watching the world go by, service is great, Igor is an absolute star, constantly on the go, serving tables at the speed of light, always friendly and great banter!
Sorry we missed you on our last night Igor, it was your night off! ?
See you next year!”

“Let me start by saying we have enjoyed Indian cuisine around the world. We love the spicy side and many times are let down as they seem to be tamed for the less adventurous. The lamb vindaloo ranks up there with some of the best we have ever had!! Garlic naan was also very good, mixed grill was alright, but again vindaloo was amazing!!”

“The variety of dishes at Tertúlias is amazing. It's authentic vietnamese food as well as Portuguese, plus many different sandwiches, omelettes, and salads... not to mention different types of grilled fish, juices, bubble tea, coffee, beer etc. We went there specifically for vietnamese food and were not disappointed! We had Pho Bo, Banh Mi, and spring rolls with shrimps and vermicelli noodles and everything was very tasty and inexpensive! The vietnamese lady who served us was very nice and attentive. The restaurant itself is very clean with nice decor and a friendly atmosphere. Thank you very much! We will be back!”

“Great spot with friendly, long-time owner, Dan, located in the heart of Praia da Rocha. We enjoyed the nice happy hour drinks and some great conversation! Can't wait to go back.”

“Beautiful and well decorated space, when we arrived we were suggested the Gin of the week, I confess they were very weak. I ordered a different one and a very well made Gin. With so much variety of Gins, we tried 2 more of the Gins made and recommended by the bartender, surprising and fantastic, some of the best I've ever tasted, and which have nothing to do with the ones from the week recommended.”

“Excellent food, well prepared and with quality ingredients.
Excellent service, very attentive and very attentive to the well-being of customers.
Spacious and prepared for families and groups...
We give it 10/10..we recommend it!!!”

“I think it is takeaway only. I didn't see a place to eat in.
The staff were very nice and chatting while I was waiting. I don't speak Portuguese, but the man taking orders was so helpful and made a special order.
Would highly recommend.
We got the super size pizza, and it came with garlic bread and drink 28/29euros
Food was very tasty”

“Everything great. Four friends went for dinner and the service was 10. The food was delicious and quality. Good atmosphere, with live music and super friendly waiters. 100% recommended if you visit Portimão”

“Perfect environment! In the middle of nature, wonderful food and great service!!! We will definitely be back! Ok value for the quality, very well served! Congratulations ?”

“Not very inviting to sit, but the quality more than makes up for it. Maybe you like the silence and absence of noise of other guests. Taste of the 12 euro box was excellent.”

“The staff was so kind and welcoming, the food also very tasty, came back multiple times! tried their tiramisu cocktail and it was delicious definitely recommend.”

“The best cocktails in Portimao, great relaxing atmosphere with great views.
Caprihina and pineapple mojito were inexpensive and tasty.
We had food one evening that was OK but not the best, sirloin steak and chips.”

“We have been numerous times and they are always friendly and polite. Vick, the Japanese girl and Japanese guy are great. Perfect food. Much better than the competition (Lag...). The guys who make all the food are polite and always work cheerfully and professionally. Best Japanese PTM.”

“As another review says, a small hidden corner with very good food, very natural sauces, they are not completely ground but they are suitable for all audiences, that adds personality to the food.
Of course, since no one visits the poor, attention is only for you, completely at your service.
They do not have air conditioning, but they do have fans which are appreciated in the middle of summer.
A highly recommended place, I would repeat without a doubt and if I return to the area I will surely return.”

“One Friday we took advantage of the get 3 pay 1 campaign, ordered online and then went to pick up in store (takeaway)! We had a barbecue one, a nice one and a shrimp one were good ??”

“The food was excellent and very varied. We will surely repeat soon. Good service and they brought the food without delay. Quality-price 10 out of 10. We were also able to eat on the terrace with our dog.”

“Omg the service was literally so good I loved it.
The food was amazing ?. I loved the vibe of the restaurant. And the place was really pretty. The fries are so good I totally recommend to get fries and a seafood platter!!”

“In Portimao for a 10-day job... I read the reviews and was a little scared but decided to try it as there are no other Chinese people around... STILL GOOD!!! I ended up coming for dinner several times (4) because the food is very good, the prices are not inflated and the service is simple, practical and effective... I recommend the aromatic duck!!!

In Portimao for a 10 day job... read all the bad reviews and was a little bit frightened by them, but still, I decided to try it because there's no other chinese place nearby... SO GLAD I DID!!! I ended up having dinner here 4 nights in a row because the food is just that great, the prices are average, and the service gets the job done... I strongly recommend the aromatic duck!!!”

“The octopus à lagareiro was excellent, and so was the view.
I would have given it 5 stars if it weren't for two employees coming up to me and asking if someone had installed us or if we had sat on the terrace overlooking the sea without asking.
Next time, make sure you understand each other and don't throw yourself at customers like that.”

“I went in to eat an ice cream, well served and quickly, but I noticed that the bathrooms had huge stairs, making it difficult for anyone with leg problems or those using a wheelchair, otherwise they maintain the good service and service they provide. expected”

“Over the years everything has remained the same, they have not lost their essence.
The pizzas are delicious. Low, fluffy dough and fresh ingredients.
Lots of variety for different tastes (my dad's pizza and the Mediterranean are really good!)
Well decorated space.
The service is well organized and flows.
It is a house with a lot of demand.”

“petit café agréable et sympathique, génial pour un petit déjeuner ou pour boire un petit verre et grignoter un bout.

Kid-friendliness: nous sommes venus en famille et nos enfants ont apprécié leurs encas (bifana et tosta mixta)”

“We went two nights to their outdoor terrace and discovered a good mojito for 5 eur and we had it in a quiet place 20 meters from the combat bashing that you have on the main street of the nightlife in Portimao.

Good, nice and cheap, you couldn't ask for more ?”

“The best bar on Praia da Rocha, I've been a customer for a few years now, and it deserves a free mug, but as I'm a Benfica fan I doubt I'll get it.
Hugs friend Tony.”

“Lovely restaurant with outside are where we sat.Service very good . We had prato do dia and peri peri chicken. All very nicely presented and very tasty.Desserts all delicious.Most enjoyable. We will go back.”

“A cafe/restaurant that stands out and stands out in relation to several similar spaces in the Algarve, for the quality of service, therefore always attentive, with attention to the customer and in the treatment. It's not everything you ask for but it has weight in the business and without a doubt the food served is also very good, so in this case an easy 5 stars.”

“We went there in a group of women because we knew about the different card games, and it was great.Other than that, the environment is beautiful and super pleasant, I imagine that in the summer it would be perfect due to the pool and the leisure options offered.”

“I went there today and for the first time it was top ?? good MT chicken and friendly service!! I recommend this chicken it's something good ?? .

“Informal environment but far from bad, in fact the Brazilian waiters are really nice (wellington very nice, obrigado!), abundant and very good dishes with reasonable prices. Highly recommended!”

“Nicely sat inside with the Asian Cup football on TV. Not touristy and that appeals to me. Small plate with fries, kebab and simple salad and a beer. Add 2 sauces and you're done. Pretty tasty.”

“(Translated by Google) This place is no longer the Acoreano tavern but Snack Bar Darcy. It has excellent service, good atmosphere, good terrace and serves very good meals, with several Brazilian dishes. I recommend.(Original)Este local ja nao e a tasquinha do Acoreano mas sim o Snack Bar Darcy. Tem um excelente atendimento, bom ambiente, boa esplanada e serve refeicoes muito boas, com varios pratos brasileiros. Recomendo.”

“Tudo excelente e a Cristina é maravilhosa ❤️😍🥰”

“Very good meat but I didn't give 5 stars because some dishes in the buffet were unfortunately cold (for example the garlic bread and the fried calamari). Nice waiters, especially one of them with whom we stopped to talk at the end of dinner over a glass of Cachaca gaucha”

“Unfortunately we only ate there twice. The homemade lemonade and the freshly prepared snacks were extremely tasty and the price-performance ratio was also very good. Ambiance is simple but very clean.”

“The food is incredible, the atmosphere is also amazing, but the service didn't deserve 5 stars because I ordered a ham pizza and it didn't come, I had to go order it again and I ordered a half peperoni and half country pizza with chess roler dough and it came with a dough with a strange cheese”

“The place is very unique and cute. We stopped for lunch and had a good meal. The service was friendly, the only flaw is that they don't tell you that it's not possible to pay by credit card when you enter, but they only tell you at the end together with the bill, which can be a problem.”

“The octopus à lagareiro was excellent, and so was the view.
