As a couple of others have noted this is odd this is at number 1, we arrived 11.50 and told they werent serving food, when we asked when they could they said 12pm so we insisted we sit and wait for kitchen to open. other customers turned up after us and their order was taken before ours, there was no local bread just as another review says. and the menu only had 4 options. food was very average im afraid. dont go here expecting an amazing dining experience.

On one of the most beautiful locations of Madeira, the port of Calheta, our Restaurant New era is located. The cozy covered terrace offers an attractive view over the port. It is a pleasant meeting place with a relaxing atmosphere. Wether you want to take

This restaurant was the only one, outside of the hotels, trading in Calheta owing to the stabilization of the cliff faces directly above the marina, whilst we were staying at the resort in mid-October. It offered a good range of seafood dishes, including the celebrated black scabbard fish, caught in local waters, served with banana, another local delicacy. It also as served a super version of the local bread with garlic, Bolo do Caco, literally balls of cake. Try its devil shrimps, best washed down with its cool beer.Great for sunsets, too.

What a find. Recommended by the owner of the house we are staying at and already planning to go back next week. Our group mixed it up with seafood, lamb and beef. Each one better than the other. Being particular to seafood myself I fear that this restaurant will have spoiled it for life. How can anyplace else compare? Fantastic ocean view overlooking a ruins from the days of yore. This is a must go place.

We enjoyed the open air seating, sea view and breeze, fine drinks, and delicious bola de cago, fish soup and lapa mussels - it is worthwhile to come here and hang out. Owners speak various languages (English, Spanish, German), staff is super friendly. After lunch go for a walk through the village of Jardim do Mar, a real garden with old houses and lots of terraces, a repaired water mill and very pretty village. Great place, highly recommended. Child friendly.

You might miss it on entering Paul do Mar after the long 2.5 km tunnel but you should go back and try this wonderful unassuming restaurant which serves excellent fresh seafood at great prices! We were recommended it and we were not disappointed, if you are in the area you should try it too!

Restaurant was completely empty and it took us 15 minutes to get served at which point or entree options are limited because they waited so long to serve us and the kitchen was closing. Also, they have a "special" tourist menu that doubles the price of all entrees - isn't that cute!? Not a fan of that practice, won't be back. We are tourists but we're quiet and like local places; these people weren't as friendly as you'd normally encounter in Madeira.
