We came to Algarve for 3 days to relax and ended up eating here everyday. Best italian food ever! The owners are italians and literally everything is brought from Italy. They have a cute shop with amazing products and a wide variety of cold cuts and cheese. The owners really knows her wine too! Overall, best place ever.

If you’re looking for an authentic Italian restaurant, look no further! Lovely atmosphere, nice hosts and the food is absolutely Italien like. There’s no Pizza if you look for that, but very good homemade Pasta, super delicious!
Thanks for the experience dear Bottega & Cucina Team!

Delicious 👌. We had heard good reports and they were right. A small intimate restaurant ( with a shop during the day) with very authentic Italian cuisine, produce and wines. Very reasonably priced. Great friendly service. Only 5 small tables inside so best for couples. More seating on the rear terrace in nice weather - this would suit larger groups.
For us we had excellent bruschetta and pasta, finished off with a very nice homemade tiramisu. Recommended.

This restaurant is such a find! In the overpriced, overhyped world of Golden Triangle restaurants that flatter to deceive, Botega Cucina is an oasis of quality and value for money. Home made pasta, the best Tagliatelle bolognese I have had - inside our outside Italy. The food is hearty and packed with flavour, all home made, a great deli too. The highlight is the service - Francesca and her team go out of the way to make you feel at home. Don’t expect glitzy interiors - it’s even a bit chilly in January but blankets and heaters are in abundance. It’s so good I nearly didn’t leave this review as we come to Vale do Lobo several times a year and I want to be able to grab a reservation!

Everything about this little gem is just perfect. I recommend it to everyone I know. The guys running the place are like one big family and you are treated like family when you arrive. Love it! It’s a very small place so make sure to book in advance!

Great place for an alternative and informal lunch break. You eat vegetarian / vegan and the restaurant is half self service. Good choice of dishes and also the wine tasted. Friendly staff.

Excellent food and courtesy of the owners. We ate pumpkin risotto with goat's cheese, toasted hazelnut flakes and coffee reduction (excellent!), carrot and red cabbage salad with balsamic vinegar and dill (delicious!) and a delicious dessert. The very kind owners and, above all, very fresh and, obv…

This is a wonderful local restaraunt and health food store that is just one blovk off the main street in Vicenza. We are not vegetarians, but we thoroughly enjoyed our very flavorful lunches. The place was very busy which is always a good sign. They unfortunately are only open for lunch otherwis…

The restaurant offers a fully vegetarian menu and vegan, colorful environment very nice for couples. Very competitive price for quality food with bio ingredients, highly recommended for non-carnivores.
