50 Best Seafood Restaurants near Silves

“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.“

“We had a wonderful menu here tonight with fish soup and Dorade.Super fun service [Original] We hebben hier vanavond heerlijk een menu gehad met vissoep en dorade. Super leuke bediening“

“Extraordinary dinner. We had Fragateria - its a soup. We ordered for 2 person - 34€ but the portion os for 3(4) persons at least. Taste? Very good taste, lot of fish bites, sea fruits…very satisfied Taste: 5/5 Visual: 5/5 Service: waiters 5/5“

“We were recommended to the O Barril from our hotel and TripAdvisor but that was fully booked due to the football games playing in the square so my partner and I discovered this hidden gem.
We tend to avoid the typical tourist restaurants catered more to the English as we are on holiday and want to try new things. This place was what we were after great food and service.
My partner had Portuguese steak and potato, which she loved so I had a tiny bit to try and it was really nice. I decided to order the same meal the night after but in O Barril..this was far from as nice.
The menu is a bit pricier that some of the other places to eat but we managed to get a table outside, and we were able to watch the sunset and thought it was really worth the price. Brilliant meal to start off our holiday.“

“If you like seafood, shell fish in particular, you're going to love this place. You can order ala cart or a combination platter that will feed four to five people. On the higher end of price in Lisbon. That said, about 1/4 the price of equivalent food in our home town of Tampa, Florida.“

“High quality fish, they grill it and it is very tasty. We ordered salmon, sardines, sea bream and calamari (lulinhas) and everything was incredible. Friendly staff. I recommend asking the waiter since there are more options than what is on the menu. Unbeatable prices, for us it was €15 per person. The only thing wrong with the place is that it is quite hot inside even though they had the air conditioning on. We will repeat for sure.“

“Food was lovely but their timings seem to struggle with a large influx of diners

Wheelchair accessibility: It is possible to get to the restaurant in a wheelchair, but be warned that there is a long boardwalk to Traverse to reach the entrance so it’s a little bumpy“

“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.“

“Aladin Grill offers a good balance of meat and fish for those with differing desires. The beef stroganoff and crepes souzette is prepared tableside and both were fantastic. The food is very tasty all around and I would highly recommend giving Aladin Grill a try if you are in the neighborhood!“

“What s fabulous family run restuarant. A big thank you ( Obrigada ) Nicha & her family who made us so welcome from booking the table till the end of our meal. We booked outside but as the weather had changed Nicha suggested a small cosy table just inside still with a good view of the sea. We decide to share so started with a fresh crab pate ?followed by prawn gratin ( stuffed full of fresh prawns) so delicious Then we had the most amazing Tiger prawns cooked to perfection. So much seafood choice though lobster. Mussels, Clams which we will try next time. 10 out if 10“

“It's a great place with good food, fantastic cocktails, wonderful staff, and reasonable prices. The only drawback is the excessive seaweed on the beach, which needs thorough cleaning. Without this issue, it would easily be a 5-star experience.“

“Our dishes (black linguini seafood and mussel risotto) was high quality and good price. Very tasty and lots of various seafood. The walk down the relatively steep and dark staircase can be a little daunting but worth it. Wednesday November 15th was the last day open for the season. Otherwise we would gladly have visited again. Opening again somtime early next year. The sunset picture is taken before we went down the staircase. It seems that google this is part of a hotel which it is not. It might have been associated with Holiday Inn nextdoors. The hotel is closed for refurbishment and will open later under new management.“

“Stoped by while visiting this area, this restaurant is far ahead of whole area competition with their food and especially with their service! Chef is Michelin star equal and service was amazingly friendly along with smile and welcome attitude!
You guys rock!!! Thanks to manager who runs this place as this is your product of labor.
It was outmost pleasure to be here and for sure will come again. Please keep up the good work!

Parking: Just above the restaurant there is gated parking and it’s free of charge as well nice and leveled“

“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.“

“If you come to Carvoeiro, don't hesitate. Recommendation from the Danielin guide, make a reservation so that you have a table in the interior rooms, from there enjoy it....the brutal grilled cod and octopus are wonderful.
As starters, an Alentejo cheese and a tomato and onion salad.
Good, pretty and very acceptable price.“

“Quiet, family-friendly place to eat. Extensive menu of dishes, although few desserts; Yes, the one I ordered was very delicious.
I have to comment that in the food, the sea bass was very cooked.
The quality is good and the prices are reasonable.
Clean bathrooms.
The place is a little dated and the staff friendly.“

“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.“

“We came for dinner and we ordered the Salmon, Sea Bass and Salmon salad, everything was very delicious, but the best of all is the attention received by all the restaurant staff, they serve you very well and always have some detail with you, You feel at home, it is a place that you cannot miss in Carvoeiro, thank you very much family, we will return ?“

“(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.“

“Well located and tasteful place. International food.
Restaurant, terrace and VIP awning area.
The only downside... an apparent person in charge at the awnings who believes that foreign customers should have priority and deserve more attention, we know why!!!!
Even though I don't continue to visit as often as I used to, I still think it's a place that deserves a visit, especially for its beautiful sunsets.“

“We went here two times during our stay. The first time we were pleasantly surprised by the innovative and well-thought menu, followed by its high quality. They exceeded my and my hubby's expectations and the daily dish with tuna felt as tender as wagyu beef and just melted on the tongue. The second time we went there for drinks and a light snack, they delivered good quality drinks as expected.“

“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.“

“We went because we were on our way to the hotel and what a great success! The food and the treatment were very good. We found a place by miracle. We ordered clams, meat and fish and everything was delicious.

Kid-friendliness: We went with our one and a half year old baby, and she had no problem getting into her high chair and eating our food.“

“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!!“

“5 of us ate and we loved it. Very attentive and very pleasant service and excellent food. We ate the cod, the salmon with citrus sauce, the rissotto and the classic bruschetta and everything was excellent.
When we went it was August and there was room to park. An excellent experience.“

“Couldn’t have finished off a week of travelling the wonderful Algarve region in any better way!!
This restaurant and its location, is absolutely stunning… The food was delicious, staff ultra friendly and what a magical sunset view.
This has been left on our to visit list upon our return trip in years to come!“

“We visited this place three times during our holiday. Very nice sardines. Very reasonable prices. Good and cheerful staff. We were lucky to get a table for our first lunch and lots of people were queuing for a table. We booked tables for our subsequent visits.“

“This is, in my opinion, the best restaurant in Ferragudo. Humberto, Antonio and Jessica cannot do enough to make your evening special ! I have been eating here now for around seven years and Humberto, the owner, will go out of his way to get More“

“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

“This is where we enjoyed our meal best during a week in Carvoeiro. Relaxed atmosphere and excellent cuisine, what more could you want. The grilled dishes are particularly recommended. Very attentive service!

Kid-friendliness: Very attentive and friendly!“

“Estivemos de férias em Armação de Pêra e jantamos lá várias vezes. Cozinha absolutamente de primeira classe e a equipe é muito simpática e profissional. Sinta e desfrute num ambiente familiar. Meu parceiro teve hipoglicemia. Fomos cuidados como seria natural. Muito obrigado e com certeza voltaremos. Atenciosamente e beijos André e Heidi We were on vacation in Armação de Pêra and had dinner there several times. Absolutely first class cuisine and the staff is very friendly and professional. Feel and enjoy in a family atmosphere. My partner had hypoglycemia. We were looked after as it would be natural. Thank you very much and we will definitely come back. Kind regards and kisses André and Heidi“

“Nice surprise for a restaurant by the sea on a very large beach.
The dishes are delicious, the staff is very pleasant and the service is fast.
We had the chicken with mushrooms, tagliathelle with shrimp, 2 capï, 1 white sangria and a chocolate mousse.
Excellent value for money. I highly recommend!“

“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.“

“I ordered 3 portions of chicken on the guide for 5 people.The chicken was very tasty and the fries were well served.Both the biscuit cake, the Algarve delight and the house sweet were very good.Very good quality price.Clean, welcoming and pleasant space.Super friendly and helpful employees.I highly recommend 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.“

“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!“

“Good menu, good food, rapid service. Very efficiently run. It was very noisy on Sunday lunchtime when sitting undercover, as it was busy. Difficult for conversation. Would want to sit outside next time. Certainly worth a visit. It's in a nice quiet area in the countryside.“

“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“

“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.“

“We have visited many restaurants in Algarve on holidays but this is the one we go back to time after time.
Lovely clean, airy atmosphere with choice of indoor or outdoor seating. Very friendly people.
The food is fabulous, the prawns are the best I've tasted anywhere, have tried just about every dish on the menu, and they're all excellent.
We'll be back the very next day we holiday here.“

“Chose this restaurant for our first night in the area (always a good test!) and we were not disappointed. Lovely friendly welcome, great setting out on the terrace, perched on a Cliffside and some lovely fresh pink to get the evening off to a start. The fish was delicious and we were all delighted with the dishes and flavours. Definitely worth booking to get a nice table.“

“This all-you-can-eat barbecue restaurant offers a high-quality dining experience. The food is delicious, the buffet is varied and the price is fair. A right choice for those looking for a memorable meal. I've been going to the house for 3 years now, I recommend it!!!“

“We had a very quiet dinner, the price quality was quite good. We ordered the fish of the day, which was sea bass or sea bream, we chose sea bass and some lamb chops, a tomato salad from their own garden and a cake for dessert. All very good, very good quality and highly recommended.
The man who served us was very friendly.“

“First time in Portugal for holiday. We ate at all kinds of restaurants in Armacao de Pera but this restaurant we visited 3 times. Excellent food + service on a beautiful location. Go and try yourself!

Kid-friendliness: The kids get a propper cooked meal“

“Can’t say enough good things about this place. The service was absolutely phenomenal, the staff very friendly and attentive, food was excellent and that view of the beach can’t be beaten. Would absolutely recommend this to anyone in the area

Kid-friendliness: Good kids menu, colouring provided, staff very friendly and funny in their interactions with my four year old“

“The Fisherman in Benagil. Sorry, but good things have to be shared with the world, and you have to visit this restaurant, because I was truly enchanted. The quality of the fish is exceptional, and the view is stunning. But, above all, what captivated me most were the people.

Employees are united and motivated, thanks to management that inspires them daily. Luciana and André are incredibly simple and humble! They are true leaders, treating their employees as equals, forming a true family. It is notable that many employees have been there for over 10 years, which demonstrates the restaurant's welcoming and positive atmosphere.

This is a place where excellence in service is a priority, and this is reflected in each customer's experience. The combination of a dedicated team, led by exemplary management, makes O Pescador an unmissable destination. It was worth every kilometer traveled to get here. Thank you “

“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.......“

“Fantastic location next to the beach and sea. We had the prawns in garlic and oil, served with rice on the side. Tasted very good, but not particular spicy (which we like) but they give you piri-piri on the side if you want to spice it up. A bit more expensive than average, I guess you get to pay a bit for the view.... I recommend this place.“
