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.

How lucky we are to have this establishment as our local place to eat when we visit Madeira each month !Always friendly service, very fresh quality fish, great selection for the adventurous to try and basic scabbard fish, rice, chips and salad never disappoints.Itâs nice to sit in the restaurant or outside on the boats, not posh just good basic quality food for fair prices.

Prazeres Rurais always have food that feels like it was home-cooked. There is a slight drop in some ingredients quality (some meats in the cozido), but overall still good. The service is friendly and good price/ quality.Ecological remark: doesn't make sense to only have plastic small bottles of water. In a restaurant there is no reason to not use glass bottles.

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.

This was a wonderful unassuming place, more like a Cafe atmosphere than a restaurant but has capacity of a restaurant & quality food to boast.Young people run the business but the ingredients/cooking used is absolutely first class. Alejandro served us on the first visit where we had a prawn pizza, which was plenty, thin crust but really tasty, swallowed down by a cold local beer.All you can hear is the water buffeting against the barrier at the harbour/marina with boats all around & locals using for walking,smoking & chatting. Really lovely romantic place to spend evening & munching into the generous pizza.Wife tried an unusual chilli flavoured ice cream quite unique in taste.Place is really made memorable for the people that works there & their own stories of life/expectations in Madeira.Great honest food with fair prices.Must Eat & please pay tip direct to Staff, they really deserve it..

We went experimenting with the feedback being so high,we arrived the employee was friendly although only speak portuguese.We ordered "minced meat" and limpets.whe waited for a long time 45 m ok whe wre not in a rush but then insted of meat he brought octopus i found it funny but i don't like octopus! I went to talk to the cook because she speaks fluent English and when I got to what they call the kitchen I was terrified it was such a tiny space where meat was store whit fish and juice and fruits it must have been about 45 degrees where the cook's sweat fell straight into the food.I just left the place feeling sick.

We found this restaurant whilst taking a drive around the east coast. Some of the locals had recommended it aswell as seeing good reviews on TripAdvisor. We asked to be seated outside as it was coming near sunset time. Staff were very friendly and helped me choose a beautiful rose wine called Atlantis. We had garlic bread to start and the steak for our main. The sirloin steak was good and loved the veg. The chips were like homemade chips we have ar home in Ireland:) The waiter always made sure my wine glass was topped up. To top it all off we watched the sunset. It was amazing. If we are ever back in Maderia we would definitely come back.
