Butchers Almancil

Stylish Steakhouse Gem with Top Quality and Great Service:

We stumbled upon this place on our way back from the Algarve Premium Outlet toward Albufeira and were truly impressed. The interior is beautifully done - think industrial-chic meets upscale steakhouse, with tasteful leather elements, sleek dry-aging fridges, and a stunning bar setup. Even during the pre-Christmas season, the decoration was warm and festive without being over the top.

Service was outstanding - everyone was extremely friendly and attentive. We started with a fresh ceviche and were already delighted. The drink menu is another highlight: they even serve Lagunitas IPA, which instantly won my husband over.

For mains, we shared a Wagyu ribeye and a dry-aged ribeye - both absolutely excellent in flavor and quality. Perfectly prepared and full of taste.

While it’s located right along a roadside (parking might get tricky when it’s busy), it’s definitely worth a stop. We’re already planning to return. Highly recommended for anyone who enjoys a proper steak in a relaxed, stylish setting.

Great little find on our way home from the beach . We pulled in here as we were starved and it looked the part when it comes to steakhouse .
Plenty of parking as it's located just off one of the main roads .

A warm welcome and as it was early we didn't have to wait for a seat . I can't really comment on the atmosphere as it was early and only a few tables were occupied.

We had brisket croquettes and prawn tempura to start . Our mains were ribeye ans filet steak and all mains come with chips and salad which was nice . We added on creamy spinach and onion rings and a mushroom and pepper sauce .
Absolutely divine and it was half the price what we paid in another steakhouse 5 mins down the road .
I got salted caramel ice cream for desert and the bill all in was only €100 .
I mean you're not getting that anywhere else around that area .
Fab food , excellent price point and nice people.
We would go back

A very nice dining experience, the prawns are excellent and beef croquets were excellent. The steaks were nice for Portugal standard. We arrived late, there was no problems. The customizing of cocktails was a nice detail, the local wine is tasty. The atmosphere was better inside than outside and there is no other bars in the area so you are really just going to Butcher. Even the local petrol station doesn’t sell water after 10pm. The highlight of the meal was the trio of desert to our surprise, huge portions and all equally delicious. I would highly recommend this as an overall very good experience.

Great food, lovely staff. Very reasonable prices. Only tip: if you want medium rare, order rare. Meat for our group was slightly too well done.

Food is ok, serving good meet. They hire a lot of staff sanding everywhere in the restaurant, but only a few are being active. Most of the time they are chatting themselves. Difficult to park at the front door. Overall recommend, the atmosphere is nice.
