The food was excellent. Good explanation also about the wine. You can see a difference in the open kitchen when the chef is there. We think there was a better way of communication with the team.

We were travelling around the Algarve and went to Tavira for one day. For my birthday I wanted to find something special and local to eat so researched and found this amazing place. I’m so glad I chose this restaurant - it is just perfection: great team, nice atmosphere and the fooooodddddd omg! The food was just such an experience - at the same time super authentic and special! We loved it and had a memorable time here. Obrigada!! ❤️

Absolutely phenomenal meal. The place is beautiful, the staff very welcoming and passionate. Really interesting wines so had to try various. The food was the guiding star though... interesting modern portuguese, really original and not a poor dish among them. The bread was amazing, the rices were a revelation. Try one of the ones with tomato rice!! Unbeatable and clever cooking. Would go back.

Very delicious food and good service. Thank you very much to the sommelier for the recommendations. The really good food matched very well with the sometimes bold drinks. Interesting drink I can recommend, if you don’t want to drink alcohol, is the kombucha. We had for food the oysters, gazpacho for starters, the tofu and the catch of the day for main, and the chocolate mousse and cheese as dessert - we can recommend everything.

We enjoyed the most delicious food and wine at Mesa Farta. The oysters were beautifully presented and so so tasty, like no other oysters I’ve ever tasted. The staff were all so lovely and really looked after us. The maitre d’ made sure I was topped up with a delicious Algarvian white, and only char…

Here's my "feedback sandwich".
The food is excellent, the atmosphere buzzing with excitement, the open kitchen a hive of activity but calm with the head chef (Queen Bee) at the pass, adding the finishing touches to each dish.
Fine dining restaurants can leave you still hungry but after 2 courses an…

This is one of the best culinary experiences we have had so far in Tavira and surroundings.
