Lovely little restaurant. Has plenty of vegan options. Just make sure to inform them that you are vegan (the menu says vegetarian) and they will make it fully vegan. We went there twice when staying in Sao Jorge island. Loved the vegan meatballs made with chickpeas. The soy burger was also ok.
Very friendly owners. The cook came to check that all my needs are met.
Also, please be aware in case you have a ferry to catch that there is only one cook and she makes all meals from scratch. Thus, you have to wait a bit for your meal.

Unfortunately we did not taste the cuisine because after 50 minutes of waiting after ordering, I asked the waiter if the dishes were arriving soon because we had to take the ferry. The waiter gets annoyed and leaves. 2 minutes later he comes back to tell us that the two burgers will arrive in 10 minutes. 1 hour wait for two burgers is incredible. I then explain that we have to leave. My guy quickly puts us in range making us pay €4.50 for a bottle of sparkling water!

Everything was super good and super fresh! Service was very nice, smiling and welcoming. We had not ordered the dishes 24 hours prior and thus had a whole fish, which was cooked to perfection with grilled veggies. I highly recommend this restaurant!

We came across this restaurant this lunchtime which agreed to serve us despite the late hour and it was a very pleasant surprise! The dishes are simple but very well prepared and the service is efficient! We recommend ??

Delicious! Great fresh food. We saw the fish “live” beforehand. There are some dishes for at least 2 people that you have to order a day in advance. Service was very nice and helpful :)

Good place, we discovered it looking for where to have breakfast on the island and it went very well. We will return every day we are there because the food is delicious and they offer a very complete breakfast. The owner is very very kind, I adapt the breakfast to my lactose and gluten intolerance. Thank you so much!

Do yourself a favor and stop by this place the day or morning before your dinner. Talk to Isabela. Waitress, owner, and cook, she turns homestyle cooking into a restaurant experience for her guests.We ordered osso buco, which is impossible for most restaurants to offer since it needs to cook for several hours. Ordered at 1pm, came back at 6:30 for an absolutely lovely dinner, the perfect end to our Azores vacation.Pricing is incredible. Half what others would charge, both for the meal and for the drinks.Tipping is not part of the Portuguese culture, and we haven't tipped at most places we've eaten on the islands. But here we tipped big, from the heart.
