Amazing place with spectacular food. The seasoning is amazing, the quality of the ingredients, everything from the service to the ambience, the food, all of it, is just amazing work.
We ate the Bacalhau and the Bife Paulo’s (mustard sauce). Both amazing in flavour and presentation.
I highly recommend the place.

When we first moved to Luz everyone recommended Paulo's as the best, authentic Portuguese food in Praia da Luz. Sadly, all this time they have only been open for dinner. Well today is our lucky day. As of today they are now open for lunch and it was SCRUMPTIOUS!! Giant portions so we not only had our lunch, we also brought home tomorrow's lunch. I had monkfish cataplana (YES - cataplana for lunch and for only one person!!), and my husband had the salmon. The mushroom soup was also delicious and so were the deserts. We are looking forward to our next visit.

Best Seafood I’ve ever had - the monkfish cataplanta was overwhelming. Especially the soup!
Great dinner, I hope I’ll get the chance to come back.

This is a delightful restaurant in Luz. It is very cozy and has indoor and outdoor seating. They have a full bar.
Our server was friendly and attentive.
The food was served hot, and it was delicious. I would definitely go back and try something else from their extensive menu.

We saw this restaurant while walking in Luz and decided to give it a try. BEST DECISION EVER! Food is absolutely amazing! Already been back and will continue to go back several times before we leave. A must place to eat!

Beef fillet was okay. Octopus totally disgusting: Soggy and slimy. Left it uneaten. Service not really friendly. We did not go back again. In the restrooms, you are asked to dispose of toilet paper in the trash can. Sewage directly into the sea?

We have been to this restaurant many times over the years. A family run restaurant. The food is excellent, mainly Portuguese, they do have pasta on the menu if that’s your thing. They usually have special, starters and mains. I would recommend a reservation/booking. This is one of our favourites re…

Eaten at Paulo’s for the first time. Reserved table by window . Quiet and humorous waiter. Started with liver pie, olives and carrot bite . Nice v-white Alentejo wine with it. Then with a lot of feeling the two Catalanas , one with bacalao and one with Pulvo/ squid. Tasty, full plate and varied. De…

Excellent authentic Portuguese restaurant just off the main strip. Chicken piri piri was very good, very spicy, and the octopus cataplana for one was massive - I couldn't finish it. The portions in general are very large and priced well. Definitely get the couvert - their homemade chicken liver pat…

This is a small family run restaurant serving Portugese cuisine. The fish is beautiful. They know how to cook a steak to order, perfectly. The wine list has a wide choice of Portugese wines that complement the food. We ate here 4 times in 10 days. The monkfish cataplana has to be tasted at least on…
