Best restaurant we tried in the area. Recommend fresh crab as starter and Saturday is their Fish Fiesta -eat as much fish as you can- the dishes just kept coming and they were delicious. Good value for money. Nadia and Joel, the owners, were very welcoming and can understand some English and Suzanne who made some delicious fish speaks fluent English. We had several meals here during our 3 week stay and highly recommend it.Ruth & Simon

I had heard so much about this restaurant before visiting it. To be honest I did not had a close look at the menu since we were there for the famous sea food rice.....that did not disappoint. The restaurant is quite small so the trick is to arrive early. Also, if you are into fine dinning this is not the place to go, however if you like good food and sea food this is the place to go. Considering the amount of food you get it has a good price/quality/quantity relation.

It's not easy to find a genuine place around Troia / Comporta since this paradise was discovered by the world. The old places where some years ago you found genuine food are gone and nowadays you get lounges, sushi spots, or expensive fish restaurants. There is no genuine Alentejo food at fair prices like this place . Do not except any fancy tables or gourmet food . You will get grilled meat, mainly pig , migas, some rices and Alentejo simplicity . 20 ⬠each for a very good meal deserts and lots of wine included . Abanicos is a must have dish !

This is great food in Alentejo. Everything was excellent. We had deep fried octopus alioli, pork steak chef's style, tuna steak, veal steak and vegetarian pasta. We recommend all of it. For dessert, we only had petit gateau with vanilla ice cream, but it was excellent also! The size of the servings is big, you can probably share. The setting is pleasant and the staff is very friendly. The service is a little slow but don't let that keep you from going.

This restaurant was recommended by our accommodation. It is a short drive out of Grandola town centre. We arrived early evening. The restaurant starts serving at 19:00We received a warm and friendly welcome, and very efficient service. A menu in English and other languages was provided. We had the grilled turkey kebab with chips, rice and salad. The meat was tender and tasty, and the portion size was good. It was also excellent value for money.

This restaurant was a find. It is off the highway in a quaint town. We had a mixture of Portuguese food that was very tasty. Tapas very good. Service outstanding and very attentive to details. The patio is beautiful. Worth the drive.

This is the best duck you will ever have! Have it with some red wine and finish up with the delicious home made Farófias for desert!

Certainly attractive externally; whitewashed with blue trimmings. Inside, it looks like a cross between a traditional delicatessen and a cake shop but penetrate a little further and there's a not very obvious restaurant. Rather an odd room, not all that big, with most tables apparently on the cusp of being available for diners but not laid up until punters appeared. In fact, a couple of tables were already occupied when we arrived but I can't say that either of the parties in situ looked relaxed or particularly comfortable.We were beckoned in by a very smiley lady of the mature-hippie variety and then, very slowly, the evening unfolded. This place operates with a staff of only two; the aforementioned abstracted lady does the front of house whilst wafting around at a snail's pace, and then a much younger girl cooks at the back.Everything seems to occur in a rigid sequential order so there is a lot of hanging around until it's your turn to get something e.g. cutlery, drink, food, bill, etc. Once it was identified that we were british, the very nice young cook was turfed out of the kitchen to explain the implications of the tiny menu sketched out on a small blackboard hanging from the wall. Once we had expressed a preference for meat, this left about three options. Sometime later, my pork tenderloin pieces in orange sauce turned up. Perfectly serviceable. Not so Mrs EPR's dull lumps of chicken washing around in a nondescript sauce; a very dreary dish. So far we had been in residence far longer than anticipated so we declined dessert and requested the bill. Another party had left just beforehand to pay at the till in the shop so we then had to wait another 25 minutes whilst they were dealt with. This involved a long debate about payment methods and the whereabouts of a cash machine. By the time we left we had been there for nearly two hours having only consumed our main courses, some pre-meal cheese, and a small carafe of wine. I did wonder what it was like on a busy evening!Obviously we had plenty of time to consider our surroundings. The restaurant seems to double up as gallery for aspiring artists (I spent the evening opposite a canvas depicting the rear view of a large lady in a red dress scratching her right buttock).There's a lot of car-boot sale type bric a brac in the room plus a collection of rather attractive, elderly, wooden dressers dotted around. Any awkward silences are avoided by some kind of jazz radio station playing in the background.Definately a very anachronistic establishment, but apart from the interesting experience there would be nothing to attract me back again.

Excellent food, we loved 'Linguadinhos com migas de hortelã' & 'Arroz de canivetes'. The dessert (photo) was also very good. To be perfect, the service must be faster. We waited 10min just to place the order, nevertheless the staff was very friendly and helpful.

Despite the parsimonious opening times, in relatively down at heel Grandola this place is quite upmarket: the interior is actually quite sophisticated in a Portuguese rustic sort of way. We stopped here for a quick lunch when we were in the area. Alentejo wine and food feature strongly and a small range of main courses are available all times. High quality food and good customer service this place can be recommended.
