Excellent French food on a lovely terrace. A small menu but done really well. The chocolate mouse with hazelnut ice cream and a crunchy topping was the outstanding dish, all homemade.

Everything is perfect. Excellent restaurant in Almancil that deserves your visit. Avenida 5 Outubro at number 225, the restaurant L’Alma is really a very good address. Everything is homemade except the ice cream and this adds quality to your meal. I highly recommend it. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

What a FANTASTIC experience! A hidden gem of Almancil. Run, don’t walk to this restaurant if you want incredible food, impeccable service, and an overall wonderful dining experience. As a family of four adults, we had almost everything on the menu and no one had a bad thing to say. My personal favorite was the tuna starter, the fish of the day, and the meringue dessert. YUM! We will definitely be back. Thank you!

This French restaurant in the heart of Almancil is a real gem ! Sincerely , one of the best fish plates (Le Maigre) I have had in Portugal and one of the best deserts (Crème à la fureur d’oranger) . Will definitely be coming back .

Excellent addition to the local area desperately in need of the culinary skills. The menu is small but very well executed, and it seems like it changes on a regular basis.

We had the foie gras and ceviche as starters. The sauce on the ceviche was very morish. The chutney with the foie gras was excellent, though it wouldn't have hurt to decorate the plate a touch more.

As mains we had the duck magret with orange sauce and the octopus with chimichurri. Both were delicious and well sized. Service was attentive and well paced.

We'll definitely be back!

A very nice surprise despite insufficient signage. I passed this restaurant a lot of times without seeing it. A friend advised me and I recently discovered this very good restaurant at a quite reasonable price. We chose a very fresh sweet-salty salad as a starter, grilled fish as a main course a…

Lunch with family around homemade dishes with good fresh produce (thank you chef). Very pleasant moment when service to the atmosphere everything is done so that it is only pleasure, I highly recommend this property. Do it again! Jerome

Excellent meal, in an elegant contemporary setting, friendly atmosphere. Very good French cuisine with quality products. We recommend beef fillet and turbo. A very friendly young couple of owners, who deserve to succeed in their challenge of living in Portugal. A little extra: parking behind the re…

Absolutely hands down the best food we have had here in Portugal in 7 years. A young hard working couple serving up exquisite food at affordable prices. Both owners are passionate about food and service, I really can’t recommend this enough. Don’t let the outside put you off inside and the terrace…
