Excellent restaurant in this quaint town. Excellent tapas, very tasty and very good value. The lemon grass weiss beer (on tap) was lovely. Worth the hours drive to Castro Marim for this meal alone

We ordered 7 tapas, all were amazingly tasty and innovative.
We had an outside table and there was a concert happening nearby so we also could enjoy some music while dining.
The restaurant additionally has a wide selection of local craft beers which were very tasty.
My favorite were the veggie rolls, very fresh and a bit spicy, and the huntsman stew, which was very rich and flavorful.

A friend and I went here last night. It's a little further up the road to the right of the supermarket Corvid. The ambience was lovely, with soft background music. For our starters, we ordered spring rolls. We were expecting one thing, but what came was a surprise, and they were outstanding! Tasty, well presented, too much for a starter, but hey, you can't complain about too much, and well priced. My friend had veggie ones, and I have prawn ones.
My main was a Thai Massaman curry, and my friend had spicy mushrooms with tofu. Both meals were delicious, and the portions were very good. I haven't eaten such nice food in a long, long while. This place is definitely worth a visit. Glasses of wine were 3 euros a glass, and again well-sized.
They offer lots of vegetarian dishes, which is great, as people like my friend find it difficult to find truly delicious vegetarian options. I will be recommending this place to all of my friends, and I will certainly be going again.

Discovered by chance but no regrets. The owner is very kind in explaining the menu to us.
It was very good! The little rooftop is great! Thank you

Very nice little gem, a bit afterwards in the village. There can be max about 20 people eating, but insanely tasty. Not the standard tapas, but a bit Asian oriented. Sometimes you walk in somewhere without too many expectations and then you are pleasantly surprised. This is such a place.

We had a lovely lunch at this restaurant last week. The service was excellent and the food was delicious. My husband and daughter’s favourite items on the menu were the Thai green chicken curry and the Thai spiced prawns and mine was the vegetable spring rolls. The restaurant was an unexpected find…

Excellent service and food
Pretty unique menu for a smallish restaurant in a quiet town .
Green Thai prawn curry was very tasty and not overpowered with Chilli which can often be the case. Well worth a vist
