34 Best Seafood Restaurants in Portimao

“Found almost by chance, it turned out to be a good choice. Very good food and generous portions like the seafood rice, the other dishes including grilled tuna and beef with egg and fried yam. Perfect service, thank you Samantha for your kindness sympathy and attention.
If you pass through Portimão I recommend it!“

“We dined there for three times during our weeklong visit to Portimão. Both my wife and I considered Carvi is the very best place to eat in town.The grilled octopus is absolutely the most delicious dish we have. The seafood and monkfish rice are also very testy with larger portion.Most of all, all three waiters are warm, smiling, and welcoming that let’s feel enjoyable to eat there. Highly recommended, no doubt, Carvi is the very best restaurant in Portimão city center.“

“A very warm welcome to a classy but casual restaurant. After being seated we were shown a platter of fish caught locally that day to help us choose! Very tasty starters followed by superb fish mains and fresh veg. I could actually taste the sea in my bream. Could see the kitchen from our table - it all looked relaxed. Reasonably priced Algarve wine to accompany. After coffees we were offered complimentary glasses of port. Superb food, great staff and fantastic value especially for the quality on offer.“

“Great location with great food, the king Prawns and portuguese steak were delicious.
Portion sizes on point, left feeling just full.
Very busy restaurant, we booked 2 weeks in advance to get a Seaview table, there was a constant queue of people waiting for tables.“

“I ordered monkfish pasta with shrimps and mussels,but what I didn't know-it will be not pasta,but soup))) Yes, it was not what I expected, but it taste good and worth to try)next time will learn Portuguese and read more about names of dishes to be prepared. But waiters were so nice and helpful,they made an evening just nice as it can be. Will recommend this restaurant to everyone.“

“A very cool place, food in the national style, a lot of different, very fresh fish, which is prepared right on the spot. Pleasant, very attentive owner, will give advice and tell you everything. The price is pleasantly pleasing, even for guests from Latvia the price is simply affordable. The three of us, two adults and a teenager, ate for 43. euros, the price included 4 (!!) side dishes like a buffet, hot - fish for adults, the teenager ate a very large piece of meat with his side dish, white wine 0.5 in a jug and compliments from owner. The place is wonderful, I recommend it!!“

“(Translated by Google) The service was very friendly, the recommended desserts were all fantastic, the sardines were very good, in relation to the price, which is normal for the area in which it is located.I recommend.(Original)O atendimento foi muito simpático, as sobremesas recomendadas estavam todos fantásticas, as sardinhas muito boas, em relação ao preço, o normal da zona em que se encontra.Recomendo.“

“The experience went super super well, I'm not giving any more stars because there are no more than 5?

We went at 9pm, very well served, super attentive, we ate garlic shrimp, beef chops, cuttlefish and everything was divine, we also ate bitsoques, the only thing that would improve was the French fries which instead of being industrial would become homemade, but overall it went well. It's ok, you're super friendly, the environment is peaceful.
I will definitely be back.

I visited based on the reviews, and I didn't regret it.

Keep it up, you're on the right track, thank you very much for the dinner/snack

Parking: Perfect location

“The fish stew was downright one of the best that I had ever tasted. I was apprehensive that the monkfish would be tough, but to my surprise the owner managed to make it immerse in the soup's flavour while remaining succulent tender. 100% would recommend.As is the case with all restaurants in Portugal, remember to let the restaurant know if you do not want the bread/butter/olives. Those are NOT free, but they will not charge you if you tell them that you don't want it before touching it.“

“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 called to reserve and we soon got a table in the middle of summer in July.
We sat down and were served with great attention and care, the gazpacho was freshly made!!! The main course was sea bass fillet with mashed potatoes. So tasty I almost ordered more! We'll be back for sure!
We are staying in Olhao and we didn't even know anything about this place. A jewel.
Congratulations“

“We read the reviews and on Sunday we tried dinner there and we loved it. We ordered sardines and sea bass and they were delicious. Both juicy and on point, accompanied by salad, sardines and steamed vegetables, the sea bass, very delicious too. Very well priced too. With drinks, some olives, and a sardine pate, we paid 29.50 in total for 2 people“

“Wonderful food and sensational service. The restaurant has been run by the same family for 5 generations and the family members themselves served us. They serve fresh seafood and the dishes are super tasty. I recommend ordering portions of shrimp as a starter and the corvina steak for the main course.
I highly recommend it!“

“The place offers a wonderful view of the ocean and the surrounding rocks. We waited a long time for the food. The agave pickle/Saxon was very tasty. The strawberry rice is special. However, instead of the tomatoes that were served with the salad, some fruit would have been better. I would have preferred to eat figs with it.“

“Real fish restaurant on the beach of Portimao. Good but simple menu with a daily special.Enjoyed our fish dishes (sardines and bacalhau), which were served in sufficient quantity and with superior taste.And what for us is a hallmark of a good restaurant: informing the owner halfway through whether everything is to your liking and taste.Highly recommended!A MUST see.......“

“By far, one of the best Portuguese restaurants I’ve ever been to! The food was absolutely delicious, probably the best grilled fish I’ve ever eaten. The staff took their time, but that’s how it is in Portugal. Don’t be discouraged by people saying the service is bad. The staff was friendly and hardworking, but in Portugal, you have to learn to slow down.“

“Excellent experience! We called to reserve a table in the room but they no longer had space. The table was for the rooftop and, surprisingly, the best choice! An incredible view, delicious meal, options for the little ones, a very well prepared passion fruit sangria and excellent service!

All the best
Thank you Mesa 101“

“Hemos estado mi pareja y yo de vacaciones en Portimao y hemos ido a comer a este restaurante 4 veces de lo que nos gustó. La comida espectacular a la brasa, el servicio de 10 y los precios de 20. Me parece un sitio perfecto para comer a pie de playa disfrutando de las vistas y de una comida a la brasita. Es el mejor chiringuito de playa que he visto en la vida.“

“(Translated by Google) Super rich fish! We went early to eat on Holy Thursday at noon, a very comfortable table overlooking the beach.Super friendly attention.Price-quality ??I recommend the typical Portuguese cod dish and the grilled sea bass (see photo). We ordered 2 starters, 2 main courses, 2 desserts and 4 pints of beers, all €56 in total for two people.Note: Google Maps said it was open at Easter at night, but we went on Wednesday around 8:00 p.m. and it wasn't open. Perhaps they are only open late-night in high season and on holidays.(Original)¡Pescao super rico! Fuimos tempranito a comer en Jueves Santo al mediodía, mesa con vistas a la playa muy cómoda.La atención súper simpáticos.Precio-calidad ??Recomiendo el plato de Bacalao típico portugués y la Lubina a la brasa (ver foto). Pedimos 2 entrantes, 2 platos, 2 postres y 4 pintas de cervezas, todo 56€ en total para dos personas.Nota: en Google Maps ponía abierto en Semana Santa por la noche, pero fuimos el miércoles sobre las 20:00 y no estaba abierto. Quizás solo abren de tarde-noche en temporada alta y en festivos.“

“Very tasty food at an affordable price, served by pleasantly friendly staff. We recommend the spaghetti with shrimp (pre-pulled) and mussels. The best place to sit is on the harbor side: it's a little windier than the other places, but you have a wonderful view.

Kid-friendliness: Our child's special food requests were gladly accommodated.

Wheelchair accessibility: There is a relatively flat ramp at the beginning of the restaurant complex.“

“(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.“

“I’ve eaten in dozens of restaurants on Sao Miguel and this has been the best so far! Incredibly delicious food that is beautifully presented. Top notch service and a lovely overall vibe. If you are a true foodie you will want to dine here, even if it means travelling a distance. You will not be disappointed!“

“We had an amazing dinner at Faina. It all started by a late night walk in Portimao looking for a nice place to eat. We arrived at the time of the closing of the kitchen, the waiter kindly asked the chef if it was ok to serve one last dish and he accepted.

Excellent service and food, romantic atmosphere and friendly staff.

I would definitely recommend this place.“

“Today we made a stop at this restaurant that I honestly did not expect what it was like, the quality of the food, the good work of the waiters and everything in good company. I recommend this restaurant and the location in front of Praia da Rocha, a luxury“

“The area is very good, central and the atmosphere in the square is very good.
The food was also good, especially the sardines, which are one of the ones I liked the most, very well done.
Price somewhat high, in the standard of tourist sites...“

“Ever since my wife and I grabbed our first Magners on ice there and met the lovely owners it's our go to restaurant whenever in Pria Da Rocha. Staff never miss a beat and the owners and their family are the soul that makes this place so astounding. Don't even get me started on the food! EVERYTHING... yes! Every item on their menu is amazing. Uber compliments to the chef who could only be described as a culinary octopus (?) in the kitchen. Even when the place is completely packed, your order comes out as if there were maybe 5 patrons. If you're ever in Pria da Rocha, you need to have at least 1 meal here and I guarantee you will keep going back.

Update: Nothing changed. Still great variety of food (Portuguese and Dutch specialties) and still the great family running it. You can't go wrong with Senhora da Rocha.“

“We went for a birthday meal, The restaurant looks wise Very nice. But the food was just ok, nothing really to sing and dance about. It wasn't really the best meat it was a bit chewy but was cooked nicely. Had better. But the service was good.“

“This restaurant is in a prime spot and in the day time has great views out to sea. We were here in the evening having checked it out earlier in the day. We were greeted warmly and given a choice of tables. The lighting made the place feel cosy and created a nice atmosphere. The service was perfect~ maybe helped by the fact that at this time of year there weren’t many customers but we appreciated the effort the staff went to. Two of us had omelettes which came with fries and salad, each presented as a good sized meal. For me I had the star of the show ~ a whole sea bass served butterflied with potatoes and veg. Without hesitation I can say this was the best sea bass I have ever eaten. Fresh and locally caught. Perfect.“

“The best white sangria I've had to date, the squid was wonderful, I was served by a guy from Cape Verde who deserves a 10 (on a scale of 0 to 5).
I recommend

Parking: I went on foot, but there is a lot where cars can be parked.

Kid-friendliness: Has a menu for children

Wheelchair accessibility: It has a ramp and a large terrace“

“Their sandwiches were delicious. Shrimp
Salad was quite tasty. Good service, reasonably priced food right by the beach. They don’t accept card for purchases under £5.

Wheelchair accessibility: Easy ground floor access, has disabled toilet nearby.“
