Bidrage med feedbackAfter reading the great reviews on this restaurant i decided to book this for my friends hen party which we go on in 2 days!! I booked this table well in advance nearly 6 months ago only to be told today sorry we have double booked when i messaged to see if they can double confirm again before we travel. Not only have we been let down terribly 2 days before we fly to albufeira, i have only found out there is suddenly no availability by messaging them myself. Pretty embarrassing if we would have turned up with 13 people who have pre-booked to be told at the door they can no longer accommodate us. Appalling service and now left to try and find alternative arrangements with such short notice!!!!
The Albufeira strip is full of places Brits seem to want to eat in, when abroad offering cooked breakfast all day, pizza or burgers so you can be forgiven for not going down there for something to eat if that's not what you are looking for. However turn left at the water tower and you will find a stunning restaurant which is family run offering the very best service and cuisine. No wine list, go and find a bottle in their ground floor cellar. Fun or what! The food is fantastic including fresh fish, great menu that changes all the time but the icing on the cake is the front of house care and attention to detail. Nothing is too much trouble. Treat yourselves and go.
We went there for an evening meal. Great service, very good prices. Tucked away with great ambience. The meal was excellent. I will definitely recommend going there if you are in albuferia
Back again to one of our favourite restaurants and again a superb dining experience. I note some comments say the service is slow but the chef cooks to order and ensures the main doesn 't appear before you have finished your starter. We feel good food should not be rushed and we devote an evening to it.!!. We love the complimentary entrees which have been different every time we visit (this is our 8th time and the free ' between course sorbets '. Also the extensive wine selection. This time there was a party of 9 celebrating a birthday and surprise proposal and we could see that all their food arrived promptly and together. The owner couldn 't do enough for them including hiding the surprise cake and flowers (that are required when proposing . As usual we left sated and happy and will be back when we visit the area again. Thank you PS They were also very quick to respond to our booking requests via Facebook.
We were very excited to eat here, with the restaurant being one of the finer looking places in the area. When we went to book a table, the place was empty, which should have been a sign. When we arrived, the place was once again empty. After a short while, the owner came and took drinks orders and all seemed well. The food was extremely slow to come out of the kitchen which was surprising as by this point there was only 7 people in the whole restaurant. To keep us going, we were given little extras between courses which were excellent but unnecessary if they'd got our food out on time. There was a few courses not available on the menu, one of which being the only vegetarian option on the menu. Luckily, they offered to make up a pasta dish for one of our party which we really appreciated. However, when it arrived it was pretty much pasta, soy sauce (and lots of it) and some vegetables. The duck was seriously pink and chewy too surprising as it took so long to arrive. We left after our mains as it had already been 2 and a half hours since arriving and we couldn't bear to wait any longer for a pudding. The owner seemed to be very stuck in his ways. I almost felt sorry for him as he clearly loved what he was doing and felt very passionately about his restaurant. Due to this, the young waiter wasn't allowed to do anything. Side plates were taken away one at a time, we had to wait for the owner before we could pay, etc. To top it off, the same song played for the entirety of our meal I think the sound system may have been broken but by the end of the meal we were going crazy at hearing the same thing for over 2 hours. To sum up, the food (for the most part) was excellent shoutout to the octopus salad dish before our starter. However, service was slower than anything I've ever experienced. So if you don't mind a very long wait for some good food, this is a good place to be.
