    We had the lunch menu - never seen it before - of soup, water/beer/juice, truffle risotto and choc mouse, all for €14.50! There were three main course choices. It was Monday and full…

    We visit more than once while in Tavira. Everything is great but we love their tempura octopus.

    Delicious food, good service. A bit loud, but I think when the terrace is available it's quieter inside.

    Excellent food (from the veal to the squid to the fried octopus and mushroom risotto) and classy atmosphere. Our group of 8 has booked to return again before we leave Portugal!

    Very good waiters/ waitresses. Excellent food . Unhelpfully crisp response to a simple request for a table next to a wall ( which was available)

    The place is quite small and when it is full it can be very noisy. The staff was friendly and providing good service. The food wasn't bad, but small portions, average taste and quite expensive.

    This was our favourite dining experience in Tavira! The food was amazing. The staff were nicely dressed in matching outfits and caps. Reasonable wine list with good prices. A pleasant atmosphere. I am glad that I booked a reservation as it was a full house on a Sunday.

    Come na Gaveta is a favorite of ours so we went for Valentine's Day. We always enjoy the Romaine with Caesar salad. We also had the pulled pork sandwich and it was delicious. I asked for bbq sauce on the side. I also enjoyed a cocktail "Lady". The staff are nice and helpful.

    Come na Gaveta is one of our favourite restaurants in Tavira. We has the Octopus Tempura which was very well cooked as it was so tender. We also had the Tuna Tacos and the steak board. All cooked to perfection. For the first time, we had a little room left for dessert. The hazelnut mouse with caramel ice cream with a little sprinkle of salt was just sublime. Loved it as did my husband who had a raspberry and pistachio cheesecake. The whole meal was delicious and the waiters are always so professional and welcoming. Até aproxima!

    I can recommend the "Lady" cocktail and my daughter really liked "The Old Mexican". The romaine salad was delicious as well as the steak.

    Being Canadian, I felt very welcomed as a tourist. The food was of high quality and the service was highly professional. The atmosphere was hip and befitting a gastronomical bar. The location was some blocks away from the main tourist centre and it was nice to see so many local people enjoying this establishment. The food was not the typical pre frozen throw it in the deep fryer items served routinely in North America. Highest praises for this very fun restaurant/ bar.

    Short notice reservation. Great staff - pleasant, knowledgeable and efficient. Great food. Potions allow easy sharing. Good presentation and quick to prepare. Tastes were excellent and served in interesting recipes. Wine list was good with some knowledgeable commentary. Recommended by a friend back in Canada as. Well as our local property manager. We will return soon.

    Food is just good. Nothing special. I was expecting more work on the plates. Tuna Pila Pau was the best. The fries with eggs and truffle didn’t taste truffle at all. The 4 of us agreed. We did the feedback to the waitress. No reaction… disappointing. Service was good. Vibe was ok. Overall, ok experience but disappointing
