Things to do in Angra do Heroismo
1. Made in Azores Cafe
Reviewed By CruisersRus
We made the choice to go to this cafe after reading a recommended review. It is located close to the Terceira Mar Hotel on Rua de Sao Pedro. After we sat down and checked the very limited menu, we realized this was not a supper location. With the realization that we knew of no other nearby location, we elected to stay and try the meagre offerings. We each choose a cheese burger because nothing else on the menu could be considered a meal, unless a plate of fava beans suited your taste. In the display case were a few pastries displayed on trays that were mostly empty. In all fairness, lunch might be a better time to visit because at least they have a âsoup of the dayâ. The cafe also sells an array of bottled jams, dips and other confectionaries as well as several assorted wines. Most of these can be ordered on line and shipped to you direct. In summary this wouldnât be high on our recommended list as a place to go for a late afternoon meal.

Third visit so I know the setting, summer time with a 9pm reservation 2 tables 9 guests present. 5 entree offerings but we were informed only 2 steak types on offer. Previously the pork was delicious and I was told they were out of it and that theyâre a small place and ... Disappointed that after the 2 or 3 years open they have not figured out inventory stocking levels, expanded beyond typical ilha offerings. The location is very special and ambiance ok. With the increase in tourism I feel itâs a missed opportunity for the owners whose main business is Land Rover excursions. Wait staff not attentive enough to bussing table, refills etc. I have higher expectations and am not Portuguese

We stumbled upon this eatery as we took a stroll from our hotel (the old fortress) to view the bull statues, which are outside the bull-fighting arena. It was an easy walk and away from the "touristy" (although there aren't too many tourists in the Azores...yet) locations and sites. On our walk, we passed Tutti Food and what caught our eye is how fresh, modern and new it appeared. As we ventured in to explore, we saw that it was a restaurant with a cafe, serving pastries and coffee/expresso on the other side. The restaurant is mostly a sit-at-the bar lay out. Think old-school American Diners...but clean and new! It seemed really fresh and we could tell it was a good choice among the locals for we were the only tourists there. We decided then that we'd head back later that night for a late dinner.The food did not disappoint. Personally, I wasn't wowed by any of the meals in the Azores (the cakes and pastries are a different story!) so I didn't have high expectations of Tutti Food. However, it was good and one of the better meals we actually had during our trip. The service was very attentive and friendly. Between my family and I, we had chicken and rice soup, bread, fried chicken, fried pork fingers/salad and the pizza. Everyone was pleased with their choices. FYI. The fried chicken is a big meal--leg, breast, thigh and one more piece which I think was another breast. As for the pastries, we had a donut, and some chocolate vanilla cream cake. This was the last meal of our trip and we were very pleased to find and dine at this establishment off -the-beaten path.
