9 Best Wine Bars near Portimao

“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.“

“This is a cozy, small, well decorated spot with a charming atmosphere to have a drink, chat and grab some snacks. Coffee and Cappucinos are also very good, made with Nespresso blends. Jordan and Joshua are hospitable and professional, always working hard and making sure everything is perfectly organized. I've been many times and I do always recommend. See you soon for my green apple G&T.“

“We stayed in Lagos for 4 days and came to Mullens twice because it was so good. We ate the Piri Piri Chicken and Beef Mozambique. Both dishes were 10/10. The chicken was tasty and came with a delicious dipping sauce, freshly fried hand cut chips and a side salad. The beef was tender and spicy. The food cannot be faulted in any way.

The atmosphere was lovely — there was live music when we visited the second time. The first time we sat outside which was great and could see our chicken being barbecued in front of us.

Best of all the service is amazing. We got to know James a bit and he made the experience even better.

Thanks Mullens and see you soon.“

“It was a pleasant dinner, made up of very good and well presented mixed Tapas. They are all very kind and helpful, there was a bit of initial confusion with the dishes but nothing that makes this place not worth trying. The wine is excellent. “

“The best is the waiter who served us, very nice and super attentive to the kid. Both the tuna and cod tartare are spectacular, as well as the braised tuna and especially the cheese board. But above all, the chocolate mousse. The hour we had to wait is highly recommended.“

“A fantastic bar playing great, northern soul and motown tunes. Owners Sue and Jennifer were brilliant really friendly and welcoming. A good range of drinks including cocktails all reasonably priced , nice and relaxing atmosphere with lovely customers. Thanks to you both for helping to make our holiday fantastic and good luck for the future. Hope to see you next year, love and best wishes Steve and Sue ??‍♂️?‍♀️?.“

“DELICIOUS! This was one of my favourite restaurants during our stay Lagos. We ordered a few starters to share, and each of them were really good (the octopus was incredible- a MUST. The flaming chorizo was also very good). The vibe was great, and the staff were super friendly. If I ever visit Lagos again, I’m definitely coming back to Barbosa!“

“Very pleasant time spent in this restaurant.
We enjoyed the seafood platter, very generous for 2. The crab stuffing was a little salty.
The bife Pimenta was very tender, although the sauce was too salty.
Recommended as well as the visit to the town of Silves.“

“Very good service

The waiters are exceptional in their care and treatment. We had been waiting for the food for 45 minutes, the place was full and we said so. They had not given us the order. At one point they brought us an appetizer and it was quick. Anyone has a mistake, and it must be understood. I mean service a 5, food is what didn't convince us at all:

Details:
- the grilled octopus we imagined something else. It is a COLD dish. They are grilled octopus legs, with some “crispies” (like a giant crouton). We don't find much sense in it being a cold dish, and having so much fried food in it. Also, for our taste, it was burned too much. I don't know if it's something from here. I attach a photo.
- Cod croquettes: little cod flavor. They put a lot of cilantro in it. I love cilantro, but be careful: it takes away the flavor of the product. Filling is more “apatatado” than a béchamel, it is more macacote.
- Tuna tartar: very good. It has sweet touches (apple), and bittersweet: red onion. You can see good tuna as a product.
- Stewed beef: we liked it. The sauce is very good, garlic, bay leaf, wine…. It wasn't bad at all

Because of our long wait, they treated us to dessert: creme brule. Very rich

It is a restaurant with waiters, attention and very good times. Very friendly. But in our opinion, we didn't like the octopus, and the rest was not bad but hey, we wouldn't repeat the truth. It also depends on what you are looking for.“
