We went to eat, the views are spectacular. The bad thing was that it was very windy.

We have ordered tuna tartare (delicious) and the seafood and fish cataplana (very delicious).

We paid €80 with 4 drinks.

The only star that shone this evening was in the sky…. A restaurant you say? I wonder if a kitchen with some semblance of a cook existed that evening! A big joke... you are sold a place, with a sea view, otherwise, there is no professional or enthusiast with even a duty of respect towards the human beings who exist there. We arrived at 8 at 8:20 p.m. with a reservation for the evening of July 17 including two children and a 4 year old. The starters arrived after 45 minutes, nothing exceptional, a few shrimps hanging around pieces of avocado and a dress of arugula... our little one waited 2 hours for his child's meal (chicken nuggets) and fell asleep without May these nuggets never come…. And after 2h30, after numerous reminders and no answers, exhausted from waiting in the cold, we decided to leave, the manager dared with a smile to ask us if everything had gone well... how magnificent this place is, we we experienced April 1st live in a tourist trap that doesn't give a damn about anyone, waste of time, money and royally loud for a nameless fortress. We ended up ordering the good Bengalese pizzas made with love. We are in Portugal, in fact everything goes here, we, accustomed to the good French culinary culture with all the service that is required, I will have seen it all this evening, a huge rant with a history of the place written from the fort on the menu card and the family who manages it (let me laugh), it looks creamy for the ignorant, but which lacks respect for the place because given the quality of service offered, the lack of respect (customers arrived well after us and served), the lack of excuses (nearly 3 hours of waiting for burgers that never arrived), but also contempt, this fort does not deserve to be called a restaurant but an ambush …. Obrigado as they knew how to tell us again and again…..

Picturesque ambience, paired with the endless expanse of the Atlantic. Experience gastronomy at the highest level, excellent service and food that tastes like music. All of this at attractive prices.

This an amazing place,it has a great view and incredible food. There is a small green space for children to run about on as well as some deck chairs and beanbags. I well recommend this place for a good dinner and quick service.

Beautiful place located on a cliff over the ocean. We ordered the shrimp pasta and roasted cod. Both dishes were well made with tasty garnishes. The fish was flaky and the shrimp were large. Good sized portions. The view is stellar and the atmosphere on the terrace is perfect for lunch or dinner.

I read other reviews criticizing the food - they must be expecting a Michelin star for plates that go for 18-25€. As far as beach town restaurants go, this place is great.

We came across this restaurant quite by chance and what an incredible surprise it was.
Beyond a magnificent view, the dishes are very colorful and very tasty.
There weren't too many people and the service was very quick.
