Faial Island (Portuguese pronunciation: [fɐˈjaɫ]), also known in English as Fayal, is a Portuguese island of the Central Group (Portuguese: Grupo Central) of the Azores.

We dined here as part of a large group. The menu had already been arranged and included the polvo salad, tuna salad, grilled mackerel and cataplana. The tuna was excellent as was the cataplana which was delicious, especially the broth. After dinner the owner gave a short talk about his two solo sailing trips around the world. It was a great evening.

We enjoyed a very tasty meal at this family type restaurant. The name is a bit deceiving, as they have other delicious meals on the menu. My husband had a very tasty cheese burger with all the fixings. Since I have specific food challenges eating out is usually difficult. I was pleasantly surprised that they offered a vegetarian vegetable soup. The soup was very nicely spiced and had a vanity of fresh vegetables. I also enjoyed a lovely crisp side salad. Our server spoke perfect English and was very helpful with accommodating my needs. We went a bit before the dinner hour, and received excellent service.

I came to this restaurant based in all the good reviews. Apart of not being a vegetarian or vegan, both my wife and I are used to vegan food as our daughter is for the last year already and she does a lot of good dishes. The âexperienceâ was based in a Surprise menu, which seriously, the dishes served were far away of any good food that could be served. Not sure what was the idea on that day, but we did not finish our meal at all. Unfortunately, you did not enjoy the food. I´m very sorry!.... I cook primarily for myself and not for tourists.The preparation is to my taste, according to my attitude to life with all my love and with all my heart.I am very happy that most of the guests, tourists feel very well and spend a few hours with me! Hans.I wish you all the best.

Uncomplicated, authentic and really reasonably prieced food. The super friendly host serves a buffet of different local specialities. You pay for the plate and can try everything. If you wish twice or more, very dangerous ;) And a glass of wine really is a glass full of wine!

We had hiked from the Caldeira down to the Levant and then to restaurant Aldina and were hungry and thirsty. The place was full but the manager arranged a table inside and wow were we impressed! The food was excellent, limpets, squid for me and soup and fish for my Wife. This is a fantastic restaurant and I highly recommend it

For both lunch and dinner, my wife and I enjoyed the opportunity to select our catch of the day from the fish displayed on ice in the restaurant. The waiter was quite helpful in explaining the fish. The preparation of the fish was really outstanding and we enjoyed the roasted potatoes and grilled vegetables that came with the fish. Of the fish we enjoyed in the Azores, my wife and I agree that this was one of the top one or two places in terms of selection, preparation and taste. While the restaurant doesn't look like much from the outside, the inside is quite comfortable and we enjoyed eating dinner on the patio. If you are in Horta looking for fresh fish, I would definitely recommend eating here.

Tried to get in the night before and could not, so came at 7 pm and got a table. Glad we came back. The coconut fish was super and the grilled octopus delicious. Did not have any appetizers. Service was great. Would recommend.

Went for dinner. Chose the Azorean meat platter starter which was amazing and huge portions. However we took longer than they expected so our fish was slightly over cooked. That said everything was very tasty and weâd definitely go back! Good friendly service
