“We stopped for a cold cerveja, the place having attracted us with the view of the bridge... We finally decided to come back for dinner and it was the best decision of the day. Just one word, a real treat both for the eyes and for our stomachs ??? We recommend ++++ Tavira, our little favorite at the start of our stay and a big thank you to the entire BORDA D'AGUA team.“

“Best restaurant!!!
Healthy food and sauces.
Although there are not many dishes, each and every dish is delicious.
It was the most delicious restaurant during my two weeks in Portugal.
The staff are very friendly and the prices are cheap.
I'll probably visit it every day I'm in Paro.“

“An essential address.
Subtle and generous dishes.
I had the pork cheek confit with figs, and it's been a long time since I enjoyed it this much.
The atmosphere on the terrace is very relaxing.
The service is impeccable.
Go for it!“

“Wanted a small lunch, but ended up with a big meal because the food tasted so good.
We were greeted by a were friendly and proffesional waitress who showed us to our table.
A lot of the dishes seemed good so we decided to order some tapas instead of just one main course each. This was a good choice since every dish, apart from the sweet potatoes, were full of flavour.
The pièce de résistance was the lemon cake for dessert. Simple yet sooo delicious. It didnt hurt that we got an extra large piece.
Very pleased with this restaurant.“

“Oh Mom, what a spectacular dinner.
Absolutely impeccable, from the fresh and strong mojito sangria to the delicious tuna and shrimp taco starters.
Main course, pork cheeks, a dish that every Portuguese person has eaten a number of times, but which they managed to reinvent, and the green apple puree, cider foam, how wonderful.
To finish, chocolate mousse with honeycomb, salt and olive oil (yes, olive oil and it's brutal) and another grilled and buttered pineapple, with vanilla ice cream and cardamom biscuits.
A new favorite in Tavira, definitely worth repeating.“

“My friend's parents had a good meal here in March and recommended the restaurant, which is in the second row not far from the promenade.
We had a great evening! The starter was mackerel. For the main course we had grilled tuna and spaghetti with prawns. I especially have to praise the tuna, which I've never had so good! The service was also very friendly and accommodating!
One of the best restaurants we visited in Tavira“

“Servings in generous quantities, highlighting the clams, beef bitoque, Alentejo-style meat and Brás-style cod. We come back every year because of the friendliness of the owners, who make my son happy and accompany the dishes he chooses with the wonderful mushroom sauce! Recommended!“

“Amazing tapas, all thoughtfully created, each with a fitting twist, like the eggplants with yogurt dip, courgette with goat cheese cream, pork filet with fig sauce or the tataki-style tuna. Didn't have a chance to try the full dishes as we had to order nearly everything from the tapas side of the menu. Definitely need to come back for some dishes, too.“

“We were invited by friends that have been going to Vincent Restaurant for many years. What an amazing little restaurant. Somehow Vincent cooks and runs front of house too. There was a great selection of food. Everything about the food we had was fantastic. I opted for the house wine which was lovely. Vincent was welcoming and very attentive. We will definitely be returning to explore the rest of the menu. Well done Vincent!“

“First of all, clarify that the owner closed the old restaurant (because it was a lot of work) and
He opened a takeaway on the upper floor of the shopping arcade that hides next to the old establishment. Despite being take away, there are half a dozen tables to serve those who want to eat on the terrace. The cuisine is superior, we tried the excellent squid with mustard (lulas a la mostarda), a feixoada with seafood, and a spectacular rice with sweetbreads and shrimp. And baked sheep's cheese.
And the dish of the day was already gone at 11 in the morning. Real Portuguese food, with flavors from the Spice Empire. Very brave.“

“What to say .....
A very nice experience on a street corner which, at first glance, does not suggest such a surprise.
The manager did everything to put us at ease and make ourselves understood (which is not always easy when you don't speak Portuguese)
Hearty dishes and a 100% Portuguese atmosphere.
A restaurant that is essential to discover if you are looking for authenticity!!!!!
As for the price, it beats all competition
Go there with your eyes closed, you will not be disappointed.“

“We know that in Portugal they are masters at preparing cod but for those of us who don't like fish the offer is greatly reduced but at the Pitanga restaurant they have a good offer of both fish and meat and the meats are delicious. I recommend the Vazia which sounds bad but it is sirloin and it is ?“

“Even if no English is spoken, you will be understood. The service is great, friendly and helpful.
The little one got a piri-piri chicken without piri.
And we adults could taste the delicious spiciness.
Yes, there is only fried chicken, fries and delicious rice. Plus a good house wine and a large beer.
We arrived late, sat in the seat and were happily served.
Everything is very authentic and delicious.
A meal that makes you happy.“

“My family and I chose this restaurant for its offering of the true flavors of Portuguese cuisine and we really weren't disappointed until dessert time.
The dessert chosen by my husband and I was a lemon meringue tart...existing lemon, meringue from poorly cooked egg whites that left us with a gastrointestinal problem for 3 days.
We notified the restaurant and were told it was impossible as they had not received any other complaints.
Very disappointed ...
It's a real shame because a lot of their menu is very good.“

“A restaurant that bears its name well...a little hidden!
EXCELLENT cuisine, a bit in the "old school" style, but it always works.
I didn't really like the passion fruit mousse but maybe that's a personal taste.
Quality service.“

“Brits on our first holiday to Portugal, we’re so happy we found this place. We came back every day as the food and drink was out of this world. And the hospitality was magic, we were invited to the karaoke and brought the family which got addicting! And lovely cocktails to enjoy. The owners speak fluent English and recommended things to do making lots of memories. Thoroughly enjoyed and can’t wait to come back!“

“In one word: fabulous!
After staying 10 days in Tavira, this is undoubtedly my favorite restaurant! We went back twice during our stay ?
Very warm welcome, tasty and traditional dishes, green surroundings in the pretty garden located at the back of the restaurant.
I recommend the mixed salad with figs as well as the hamburger (without bread).
You can go there with your eyes closed ?
However, be careful to withdraw beforehand because credit card is not accepted!“

“My wife and I have gastronomic experiences in excellent restaurants and today we ate the best grilled meat ever accompanied by divine smoked rice served on warm plates. It was on the advice of Mr Pedro and the Chef to try the Ribeye as an alternative to the Costeleta and Posta Arouquesa. An excellent and efficient service from Mr Pedro and, as always, a good wine suggestion. Thank you very much and many congratulations!“

“Super restaurant! On y a mangé pour notre dernière soirée à Olhão. Tout était parfait, l’attente juste un peu trop longue, mais un groupe de 5 personnes avait commandé avant nous. La nourriture est très bonne et j’ai trouvé cela plus travaillé que dans les autres restaurants de poisson de la ville. Le service est agréable. Je recommande ce restaurant!“

“Vegetarian options: Bit limited but ok . Tomato and Pesto and Mozzarella salad really good. Fries are excellent, not soggy plus spaghetti with pesto, pine nuts and parmesan very tasty. Huge choice of teas and coffee from their own roaster. Tried a Bombom which was coffee with condensed milk.... delicious but only room for one. Staff speak very good English and are very attentive. We have visited 3 times.“

“January 23, 2024: For seven years we have been visiting Casa da Barreira on our trips to Sao Bras to enjoy a hot drink and a piece of cake. The standard hot drinks are a Bica cheia and a Meia de leite - you probably won't get better in the Algarve. The cakes today were a bolo de amêndoa with a fabulously airy dough under a dense layer of wonderfully sweet and sticky almond slivers and a bolo de abóbora (pumpkin cake) - recommended!“

“Very good, very cheap. As a solo English speaker I came in and sat down, the lady said ‘chicken?’, I said yes and 5 minutes later I had half a chicken with rice and chips in front of me. With a beer and chocolate mousse it worked out to €12.50… what more could you want!“

We did pass by earlier and heard a singer performing and it seems this happens regularly. We need to return as we want to try the burgers as they looked delicious.“
