Suggest you book on weekends, as the place was packed when we were there.
With that out of the way, this was one of my favourite meals I had in Faro.
Fresh seafood available in various combinations and cooking styles.
We had the Cataplana with pretty much all the seafood you can imagine in there. It was delicious and relatively good value considering what was included.
Friendly and helpful service. Good wine and drinks list tops off a great restaurant.

This is a hidden gem near the city center in Faro. Everything about it, from the abundance and top quality of the meal to the homey atmosphere and customer service was excellent across the board. Marginally pricier than other delicious places in the area, but 100% worth it. One of the best places in Faro hands down. We had the pico picau and octopus cataplan. The aroma was too much to resist, we forgot to take our photos before digging in!

We visited this place twice in our short trip in Farowith our baby - this is how much we love this restaurant and feel welcomed. It's a cute family-run restaurant and the staff is kind. The catsplana is so delicious and we would still love to try more items on the menu if/when we come back in the future!

My partner and I were lucky enough to book a table the night before the owner went on a two-week holiday. We ordered the €94 seafood pot and it was absolutely beautiful – perfectly cooked and exactly what we needed. The lobster was outstanding, the razor clams were divine, and I even tried cooked oyster for the first time, which turned out to be a great experience.
It was a very generous portion, but so delicious that we finished every bit. Dessert was lovely too. On top of that, the owner was incredibly warm and friendly, which made the evening even more special.
Definitely a 5-star experience – highly recommended!

Very pleasant restaurant, table service with highly attentive staff who are willing to explain how the regional dishes are prepared. Customer service reminiscent of old Portuguese restaurants, where there is a genuine care to serve well and honestly. Our choices fell on two appetizers: garlic prawn…

We changed restaurants every day for 20 days during our trip to Portugal, except for this fantastic restaurant. Space cataplana, genuine friendliness, and many details like the screen projecting absurd videos created with AI by the owner. Not to mention the cooks; the children were fascinated watch…

Ci dispiace che i nostri piatti non ti siano piaciuti. I calamari all'Algarve sono freschi e cucinati interi; se avessimo saputo che non ti piacevano, avremmo potuto usare calamari surgelati. Le cataplane sono preparate al momento con pesce del nostro estuario, che arriva fresco ogni giorno, pescat…

I ate Cataplana peixe it was one of the best dishes I ever ate. It was for one person but quite a big portion. It was with clams, shrimp, fish, potatos and bread in tomato sauce.
