This is a beautiful hidden gem in Quinta de lago If you want a restaurant different from the beaches restaurants , from the trendy restaurants, there you are : very authentic and intimate with a nice touch of sophistication, in the decor as well as in the food . Food is excellent , service warm and personnal . And you able to hear your guests !!! Because the musis is soft We have tried most restaurants in Quinta and Almancil, this one is now one of our new favourite ! Thank you to the tram for this lovely experience . Louise P

Food tasted nice but balance was odd. Overwhelming amounts of mashed potatoes were seen in some dishes.

Sena has launched a new refreshingly creative dinner menu with a Portuguese influence. We shared an excellent shrimp salad to start followed loin of lamb and sea bass fillets . The addition of some Portuguese flavours to the dishes added to our enjoyment. We can recommend The New Menu. With the excellent service it is a restaurant to go for an enjoyable evening.

We dined again this week and were pleased to say some improvements are planned. A new menu is due in the New Year with more dinner menu dishes. The service was excellent once again. The food is good. Moving the banquettes to the walls and making the most of the excellent round tables and picture windows would enhance the overall ambience. Lets hope it happens.

Such a pity, the restaurant used to have such a delightful dining room you immediately felt a sense of well being. For some unknown reason they have remodelled resulting in Brown banquets backed up against the wonderful full length picture windows blocking out the view in and out. The initial appeal from the road that inspired you to try the restaurant has gone! Contributing to a decline in customers which in turn reduces the overall ambience. The menu is confusing as it mixes all day dining with a few dishes for the evening. The potential is there but needs someone managing who understands the restaurant business and customer engagement. The manager sits in the corner eating every evening then leaves. Never engages with any customers. It is a disappointing mystery !!

The restaurant offered a full menu in July but it has now been substantially cut back with a focus on a more casual experience e.g. burgers. Food was okay and service good but overall disappointing.

A lovely place to have a relaxed bite to eat. We had lunch here and it was really tasty. We didn't realize fries were included with our burgers as it doesn't state it on the menu. We had the pulled pork, the crispy chicken and the beef with chimichurri burgers. all were delicious. The lady who served us was super friendly.
