Our second visit and equally as good . Excellent professional and friendly customer service and great food . Our party of 2 shared mussels to start and had lamb chops and a ribeye for mains from the specials board . All spot on in terms of quality and cooking . The home made cheesecake was spectacular!! Highly recommend and we hope to return

Borges is a true gem in Almancil, offering consistently excellent food and outstanding service. I’ve been coming here for a few years, and the staff—friendly and familiar—always make me feel welcome. The dishes are fresh, beautifully prepared, and full of authentic Portuguese flavor. A reliable favorite for a quality meal in a warm, inviting setting.
