Always very good dishes. And you can see, how they are prepared with love and expertise- because the kitchen is more or less part of the guest-dining-room. The girl who serves should talk a bit louder; but with this lonely comment you see that the most important part, the quality of the food, is very, very good.

A lovely intimate restaurant with an innovative menu. The food was so fresh and tasty and the staff were lovely. The leeks were to die for and the portugese cake is possibly the nicest cake i have ever tasted. Would definitely recommend

Intimate dining experience with a blend of flavors and great atmosphere. I started off with the croquettes, grouper, clementine almond dessert and delicious blanco Duoro wine. It was my first time in Faro and I highly recommend this place.

All in all the food was very tasty but the portions are so small and on the other side very expensive compared to the amount of the food. After eating a main course I was still half full and could easily eat an other main, not like elsewhere where the portions are much bigger. Everything comes in small size including starters and desserts too. I recommend to eat elsewhere if you want to eat well. Otherwise it's okay to try if you not that hungry but you are still going to end up spending quite a lot.

A fabulous small restaurant with local produce cooked in a different and innovative way. The menu is small and seasonal while the service was welcoming and professional. A traditional restaurant but with a modern twist. Highly recommended and would definitely return.

Cozy little restaurant with season food. Amazing and attentive service. Very good explanation of the food and recommendation. Open kitchen so you can see your food being prepared in front of you. Amazing taste and even if you choose fish dish you will get stuffed. Definitely recommending this place for a nice meal. They informed me that on weekends they also do lunches.
