Vai e Volta

Reviewed By floralitsa - Eindhoven, The Netherlands

Love this restaurant! Look no further and visit this place for tastefull meal with the best fresh grilled fish. They only serve one plate: mixed grilled fish (including side dishes). But they mastered their trade and will amaze you. Amd last but not least: lovely people with great service.

Pizza na Pedra

Very romantic restaurant with amazing views and relaxed profissional service. Extensive wine list. Typical italian home-made food with international glances. We support local farmers and producers.

Tasquinha O Galo

Reviewed By Jamie604 - Barrie, Canada

We went for supper to this cozy family restaurant and experienced their pork tenderloin and the rabbit in puff pastry.
Great presentation and both were very filling. The staff are friendly and very helpful and will assist you in making a fabulous choice for dinner. We will return to experience it again and hopefully save room for dessert.

Casa Corvo

Reviewed By SwitzerlandDuffy - Switzerland

There is nothing fancy about this restaurant. It is on a street corner with cars going right by. The salad of tomatoes and onions and lettuce wouldn't excite anyone. Bread nothing to write home about. But the fish, the fish, THE FISH. The catch of the day (and it really is the catch of the day from boats moored 20 metres away) is on ice in front of the bbq. Choose what you want. And then prepare to eat the freshest and most perfect food imaginable. They don't mess around, they just grill it to perfection.

Reviewed By BarbNabb - Redruth, United Kingdom

Not only is it welcoming, bilingual and pretty, with indoor & outdoor eating areas, the food is magnificent! Parking through an open gateway to the right of the easily found venue, enter through the rear or front entrance and prepare for a cuisine experience. Fresh,local fish, steaks, lamb and veggie options - we each had a different dish & declared it delicious. Stuffed squid in a coconut curry sauce was voted the best. Cost was less than €120 including 1ltr house wine, 4 starters & 4 mains, with superb, home made hors d’oerves. Gluten free easily catered for and understood.

Restaurante Prazeres

Our aim is to serve delicious and traditional Portuguese food, based on a Mediterranean diet of meat, shellfish and seafood. All our fish is sourced from the local lagoon known as "Ria Formosa". Local produce such as Bread, Wine, Olive Oil and Cheeses are all available to accompany our main dishes. There is no cover charge on any of our menus. Our dishes marked with the Unesco Symbol are made according to the ancient tradition of Mediterranean cuisine

Reviewed By Aiglon71 - 71000 MACON

Not really a restaurant for only "locals, but with some Britsh, Germans, French and Dutch around is did not make the quality of the food worse.. Thank G.d it's not a real tourist trap...... As a matter of fact: the cuisine is very well done, refined and middle-priced according to Portugese standards. Service and ambiance is excellent. Quality of the fish is extraordinary if your are not living somewhere near a sea shore, you'll appreciate eating fish etc. from the catch the night before.!! As an entré I tried the oysters being very respectable indeed. We visited in February 2018 and the bill was just under the 50 Euro inclusive appetizer, main course, wine and desert for the two of us.
We realy recommend

Reviewed By Thanatos72 - Carrickfergus, United Kingdom

We had a very nice tapas evening at Gosto Disto back from the Main Street it was nice to be sitting somewhere a bit quieter.
The food itself was between good and excellent, though the Portuguese meat balls were covered in breadcrumbs and didn't taste of any meat I've tasted before, but who am I to argue, the tapas come out at a nice pace so all the dishes weren't thrown at you at once which was good.
As I've said some of the dishes were tastier than others but none of them were bad.
Only slight complaint would be the toilet facilities which had a toilet with no seat and a loose tap to wash your hands so it may be best to make sure you don't need the toilet before you arrive.

Terra i Mar

Reviewed By Catalin_Vaitis - Geneva, Switzerland

Like most of the restaurants in Olhao this looks very simple and basic. As we were looking in the menus, the waiter approached me to recommend some fresh fish off the the menu. I never went wrong with this and this night was no exception. We sampled the sole, the red brim and squid. All of them were excellent. The service was very friendly and fast. Net, this was a very good experience, definitely recommend it.

Stopped for a lunchtime beer and a couple of wraps (chicken and smoked salmon). Nice wraps but beers a little pricey.
