It is not a restaurant, it is a learning experience! Food is delicious, but even better are the stories and learnings that João shares with every single dish. It may look expensive, but it is an amazing experience - food and culture all in one!

10/10Loki is one of the Algarve’s real hidden gems. If you’re planning to explore a few fine dining spots, go to Loki last. Most places will feel underwhelming after. João runs the kitchen solo and the detail he puts into every dish is seriously impressive. There’s no official wine pairing, but it’s one of the rare places with a proper selection of good Algarvian wines - which, if you’ve tried looking, you’ll know isn’t easy to find.

+3READ THIS REVIEW. I have not read any other reviews which mention that this is an intimate, one table only dining experience which is magical, earnest and heartfelt. The dishes change daily depending on what organic, locally sourced produce is available that day. João (the person running the ENTIRE place) was so attentive, sensitive and passionate. He made and introduced every single dish which was incredibly sentimental. The entire concept is so well thought out. The dishes, illustrations on the wall, wooden spoons are all considered and from the Algarve. As someone who constantly seeks interesting and exciting food - I have been more than satiated, I’ve had my f*cking socks blown off. Absolutely astounding. So much appreciation for the infinitely talented Joao 🙏🏽

9.5/10Absolutely amazing culinary experience, expertly crafted using wonderful locally sourced ingredients by an absolute genius magician. Very talented. Better than some Michelin star restaurants we’ve eaten at. Lovely evening, lovely experience.

9.5/10Excellent food, concentrated on local produce and traditional methods.Huge flavours. João has a passion for his craft and Algarvian tradition, and it shows in the dishes he serves, all with an explanation of the ingredients and their origin, and how he transforms them into some of the best food we have ever eaten. At least as good as the Michelin starred restaurants we have been to.

10/10An amazing experience!!! Chef João created a fantastic, creative, and beautifully presented menu, paired with local wines. As much of the menu and wines are locally sourced, we learned a lot about the Algarve as well.

10/10You will never be prepared for this gastronomical delight. One Chef, your table and a night to remember. Only one reservation per night. Oh and I wish I could see you face when you get to the front door.

An absolute must have experience. Very intimate with every dish produce and inspiration explained prior to each of the 11 courses. Very knowledgable about origins of produce and authentic to his skill and to Portuguese cuisine. He should be on the Michelin watch list and if he isn’t now, he will be soon. Worthy of the praise. Go.

8/10Great service and local foods, a good attempt to copy Michelin cuisine without being so expensive. the wine list is not extensive but is good. Menu+ wine would be around 80€/person

9.5/10The inconspicuous entrance opens up to a small 3 tables interior. The chef took his time to enlightened us of the ingredients he carefully and thoughtfully selected for our surprise 11 course degustation menu. The atmosphere would have been livelier if not for the unfortunate COVID-19 because we were the only patrons. Overall, highly recommended and will come back again.
