U Monchiqueiro

Reviewed By 20dixonj

We have been lucky enough to visiit O Monchiqueiro and their sister restuarant O moinchqiueiro 2 (at the other end of the same road) on numerous occasions during the past few years. Both restaurants are to be highly recommended and we have never had anything that has not been absolutlery delicious at either. I must say however, that at least once per visit, we just have to go and sample their pork & clams. We have tried this dish at several other restaurants in the past, but these are second to none and now the only place we will have them. A bottle of wine, a portion of bread to mop up the juices and you really are in complete heaven!

The Pig Gourmet / Porco Goloso

Tuscany Cuisine, Ingredients of Portugal - When we think of Tuscan cuisine, we think of a kitchen linked to its territory. This is true. But Tuscan cuisine is also a philosophy of cooking and conviviality. In our presentation is written: Tuscan cuisine, i

Cafe Ingles

Welcome to Café Inglês, Silves - Algarve Probably the most charismatic place throughout the Algarve and some even say in all Portugal ... Situated in the heart of historic Silves, between the castle and IbnAl-Mutamid-Amar and a gorgeous Gothic cathedral,

Reviewed By ChristineB796

Having visited the castle, museum and cathedral this was close by and had good TA reviews. Beware there are steps to reach the cafe but some going up from the cathedral do at least have a hand rail. The menu was simple straightforward fare and it was nicely cooked. We only wanted a light bite so I settled for one of the half pizzas offered and we shared these with ham, chips and two soft drinks. A total of €18.75 which was reasonable and it was all tasty and enjoyed on the shady terrace. Inside looks quaint and interesting too. Service polite and efficient and swift. Entirely happy to go again and to recommend.

Recanto dos Mouros

Reviewed By FeeFeeF

Bit off the beaten track but worth finding. It's relaxed yet professional, very friendly, welcoming staff. Good food, l had lamb, partner had wild boar - both delicious. Interesting covers, lovely puds. Half carafe of vino, bottle of water and coffees, around £20 each and worth every penny. Highly recommended, thank you!

Restaurante Marisqueira Rui

Reviewed By MarinaandJim

We had lunch at this restaurant. It was recommended to us by the gentleman who had picked us up at the airport in Faro to drove us to the Algarve. Best choice we could make. The food here was just excellent. Loved it and we would recommend it wholeheartedly.

Taberna Almedina

Reviewed By BooksHampshire_UK

We had Sunday lunch here and the place was full - packed with families and groups, both Portuguese and tourists.It serves traditional food, well-done, decent portion sizes, and mid-priced. Service was fine, considering how busy they were, very friendly, and there was live music at one point ( a plus or a minus depending on your preference...).One of our better meals during our time in the south.

Churrasqueira Valdemar

Reviewed By Middleagespred

As per other reviews we weren't given a menu however seems to be what happens. Couvert then choice of tomato or green salad. Then chicken either piri or plain with fries. Finished off with small dish of melon, orange, almonds and currants.With drinks and coffee came to 18 euros for two. Whole experience service and quality of food was great. We will return next time we are in area. One NOT to be missed.Thank you very much for the positive feedback about your visit to Valdemar barbecue. I am very happy to know that you enjoyed the food and our service. Thank you very much for the recommendation, it will be a pleasure to welcome you again.

The cooking style of Restaurante "O Barradas" is based on original Portuguese cuisine and recipes adapted into a more contemporary defined taste. We only chose the best ingredients often found in the local region and serve daily fresh fish caught in Sagre

Five of us had a brilliant dinner here last night. The setting is lovely as are the staff. Service was faultless as was the food. Octopus salad was delicious. The John Dory beautiful. The fig ice cream worth a visit on its own. A quality restaurant.

Restaurante Folhas do Louro

Reviewed By 849huwt

How this restaurant is not in the top 10 in Carvoeiro is beyond me because the service and food are out of this world, most probably because it used to be called Biffe until a new owner bought it and its the appearance from the road doesn’t help and the name doesn’t exactly slip off the tongue but please don’t be put off by that because if you like fish then order the grilled mixed fish with potatoes and vegetables it’s absolutely amazing for €15 !! or the monkfish and rice - fantastic flavours, it’s a sister restaurant to “A Gale” across the road so that speaks for itself. This restaurant deserves a better rating than TA give it but it’s up the customers and reviewers to give it the rating it deserves. Just try it. The fish grill consisted of tuna steak,salmon,scallop, codfish, King Prawn and langostino served with potatoes and vegetables Thank you so very much.....Your comment make me so happy This is why I love my job.
