    The restaurant did not seem as inviting to us as others we had been to. Service was fine and food was good.

    Lovely dinner for 3 our first night in Portugal. Everything was exceptional, we had the burata, bread, lasagna, carbonara, ravioli, tiramisu, and a bottle of wine. Every dish was honestly exceptional, perfectly fresh, and delicious.

    We were looking for a small, quaint restaurant close to our hotel and we chose this restaurant. It was only a 5 minute walk and we really didn't want to go any further, since we were exhausted from touring and shopping. This place was exceptional, from the maitre' d to the wait staff to the outstanding food and wine. A perfect evening t wind down the day.

    We left the restaurant because literally they made us wait more than 20 minutos in the table and no waiter came to take the order, not even drinks. Worst service ever.

    Terrible service. We were seated (party of 8 people) and for 45 minutes not one person came to bring us water or take our order. A server brought bread to our table (which we didn't even order) and after we left - the manager came out to ask us if everything was okay and we told him the situation and all he cared about was our "bill" from us ordering nothing - but he was expecting us to pay for the bread that was brought out that we didn't order - sure here's the 7 euros. Terrible place.

    This was the first time I'd used The Fork to make a reservation and, to my delight and surprise, it worked perfectly. We were warmly welcomed and shown to our table; the staff were charming and the food was delicious and generous portions. In fact we enjoyed it so much we've booked to go back tonight. ????

    The location was close to our Hotel and is part of another Hotel, but with a separate entrance. It provided a well-balanced evening meal. The service was very good given it was a Saturday.

    The ambience is very nice at this restaurant. It’s casual but is trying to be a bit less so. I don’t think this is fine dining but the restaurant seems confused about the experience it is offering. The service was not great due I think to a lack of training. I was shown into the dining room and then left standing until someone came and told me to sit anywhere. I waited quite some time before anyone came to the table but there were two people standing at the service station doing nothing. I ordered a glass of wine which took a long time to arrive. A taste was poured for me to try. The next time I asked for another glass of wine a new bottle was uncorked but I was poured a full glass without a taste. I had the mixed green salad which was unremarkable and similar to what I make at home every night. The ricotta sage spinach ravioli was quite good. The bread was OK.

    I had the cheese plate to start. Large platter with good selection of cheese, walnuts, apple and celery. For main had the spinach pizza. It is a large pizza, perfect base and the best pizza I have ever had. All food and drink we had was great at a very reasonable price. We were staying near the top of the town, handy to have a good place to eat nearby

    Although part of an hotel, this restaurant stands on its own. The food was very good and service excellent. Staff were attentive and very friendly, even laughed at my jokes! We has a lovely evening and happy to recommend it.

    Good italian cuisine. Sometimes revisited. Unfortunately not too many choises for the ones who rather prefer vegeterian dishes. Time of cooking for pasta is respected making it always “al dente”.

    This little restaurant is an absolute hidden gem. If you’re close by and want some quick, high quality Italian/Portuguese food this place is the place to go! Staff were extremely attentive and friendly. We will be going back to try more

    Terrible service. We booked a table for 7.30pm and still hadn't received our meal by 8.45pm so we left. We weren't the only people experiencing such bad service.

    We were on a promotion that allowed us to eat at the rose garden and at il basilico. The rose garden level of food and experience was much higher and at 57€ per person for each dining experience the 114€ spent at il basilico was not value for money. Our staters of calamari and prawn were left as they were tough! Our dessert of panacotta and tiramisu were not what they should be. The main course of filet was acceptable but overall our expected levels of food quality compared against the rose garden fell far short

    Amazing food and wonderful service! The only issue was that my partner got a pizza without tomato sauce - he expected it and the menu didn’t have it written so I wish we were told this in advance.

    The food was amazing, and the service too. But no at the first sight, cause when we just came we were examined for the reason for solvency (what is really strange in 2021). We were with kids and they don't want to give us a seat in some reason, but when we ask manager, he did everything correct
