Sitting on the terrace overlooking the beach we had a couple of burgers, swordfish and the aubergine mille feulle (one of the few vegetarian dishes). Fish and burgers entitled to free starter which include lovely brioche type sweet bread with goats cheese and a super delicious jam (mix of apricot and honey). All food reasonably priced and delicious. Not sure about other times but on the August bank holiday we got by chance one of the few non-reserved tables at 12:00; so making a reservation would seem like a good idea. Muito obrigada pelo seu comentário! A opinião de quem nos visita é sempre muito importante para nós. Esperamos poder voltar a contar contar com a sua visita. Até breve!

This restaurant and in particular the âCaldo/Mulho de Peixeâ was recommended by the owner of Quinta dos Peixes Falantes. And she was right! The dish was very tastfull and the fish was very fresh! It is a family-owned business and the mother is the cook. She is very friendly and cooks delicious! One of her sons, Pedro, works as waiter and speaks English very well. We enjoyed having dinner here and the price is very reasonable. Donât let you scare off the simple exterior and interior as it is the food what counts. If you stay at Sao Miguel, you should at least have lunch or dinner here!

Our VERY GOOD experience would have been an EXCELLENT experience if the restaurant staff had taken care of the little details. Fortunately for us, my pre-trip research and direct approach paid off. FOOD: After reading more than 100 reviews of the various restaurants in Furnas that serve cozido, I decided to reserve a lunch table several weeks in advance. Terra Nostra Garden offers traditional cozido, vegetarian cozido with couscous and non-cozido options such as steak and seafood. I pre-ordered 1 cozido meal and specified that my dining partner would be ordering from the à la carte menu. In this way, we would both be able to taste cozido while enjoying other dishes. After all, when we go to other restaurants, we donât all order the same items. Itâs more fun to share.COZIDO: It was delicious! The meat was smoky and tender (beef brisket, chicken, blood sausage, chorizo and pork trotter). The vegetables were scrumptious (collard greens, cabbage, sweet potato, potato, taro and carrot). The accompanying broth was flavourful. I could have drank a cup of it! After finishing my plate, I asked for seconds of the vegetables and the pork trotter. According to the fine print on the menu, customers can ask for additional servings of cozido. Other restaurants bring a mountain of food that becomes less appetizing as it cools down. So much is wasted. A LA CARTE: My dining partner chose fish soup and the forkbeard fish fillets. The soup was dark and deeply aromatic - better than the bouillabaisse I had in Marseille.FREE TICKETS to the botanical garden and thermal pools: According to the fine print on the menu, ordering a minimum of 30⬠entitles each diner to a free ticket. Our bill came to 64⬠for the 2 of us. When the manager swiped my credit card, he did not mention the tickets but I overheard him telling another table about it. He even brought some tickets to their table. As we got up to leave, I asked him about the tickets and he pointed me to the front desk. Preferential treatment? BOTANICAL GARDEN AND THERMAL POOLS: Using the free tickets, we were able to save 8⬠per person and skip the queue for entrance to the garden and pools. The garden is so beautiful! I only wish there were some lockers or more benches to put oneâs belongings. I can imagine how pleasant it must be to stay in the hotel and stroll to the thermal pool in the early morning.
