黃彥鈞★★★★★

This was our first meal in Faro and was really unforgettable. Their local specialities are fresh and appetising served with huge portions of seafoods. Before getting our bills around their close-up time, the staff greeted us with Portuguese liquor, very fruity and sweet. Highly recommend this fantastic place to all visitors, not only for food but also the warmth of lovely staff.

Authentic local spot 🐙✨ Small place with just a few tables, but clearly popular with locals—always a good sign! We were a bit skeptical at first because of some reviews about the owner, but honestly, he seemed perfectly fine to us 👍 He may not speak much English, but just pointing at the menu works! We had the octopus and the mussel & shrimp rice—both were super fresh and the portions were HUGE 🤤🍚 The sangria was lovely 🍷 and the prices were surprisingly very reasonable 💯 The owner even checked in to make sure everything was good - which we appreciated 😊 If you’re looking for some

The food literally made me tear up it was that good. The owner has a strong personality for sure but even stronger cooking skills. Definitely a gem and the best Portuguese food I’ve had, I came back for seconds…. For all the people who say the atmosphere is bad please look past and don’t let that deter you away from some quality food. It tastes like it was made with love. Thank you 🙏🙏

Unique experience, truly very special personality, chef and server. Full of stories. One has to get used to Carlos and let him be. Then it's all good. Superb grilled bass, great rice dishes. Grilled prawns also great. Very cheap. Carlos speaks 8 languages. Not touristy, very genuine.
