    We regularly visit Casa Joao when on holiday in a nearby golf resort. We enjoy their Italian food. The staff are friendly, the food is very good and it's good value. Sesmarias is a little way out from the holiday villages of Carvoeiro and Ferragudo but Casa Joao is worth visiting and there is usually parking available on the roadside.

    Really good food. We had a mixture of pizza, pasta & steak, followed by ice cream of course. All staff were friendly & engaged in conversation with our children which is really important to us.

    Great rustic restaurant with friendly attentive staff. Best pizza and pasta around so much tastier than the more expensive Italian restaurants and the live music nights are fantastic well worth a visit

    The main courses were excellent but the presentation of the deserts were laughable. I thought it was a joke when my 2 scoops of ice cream arrived in a tiny paper cup, accompanied by a small wooden spoon. Scoops were equally tiny!!
