Our reservation was outside and they placed us inside. The head waiter was arrogant with the explanation why they only noticed us 2h prior dinner (no time to choose another restaurant). Inside it was too noisy and AC too strong.

The food menu consists of tapas and main courses. We had a mix. Every dish was beautifully presented and tasted delicious. Service was excellent and attentive. Can thoroughly recommend. This was our second visit, having eaten there last year when just opened. Will be back next visit to the area.

I have been in a lot of “tourist” restaurant places in my life. And as well in Portugal, having lived in this country for two years.l and coming here for the past twenty years. Get to Tinto. You won’t get wrong. Yes it looks that it is in the middle of M25 …. :-) But trust me. Great food, great wine, and above this, great team! And please make the effort to speak a bit Portuguese! Thanks for this great night ! Therefore : Tinto c’est un Grand OUI!

We have been several times when it was a tapas menu and really enjoyed the variety. It’s moved away from Tapas but the service of food hasn’t. All our mains came at varying times which shouldn’t happen. If you have moved away from Tapas then the food should be delivered to each customer at the same time. Also felt understaffed.

Not really Portuguese. Food was only ok. Nice setting if you don’t mind the loud singing .
Tinto by Vale do Lobo • Owner
Dear Mrs. Denise, Thank you for visiting Tinto and for sharing your feedback. We are sorry to hear that your experience did not fully meet your expectations. Tinto is proud to offer a contemporary take on authentic Portuguese cuisine, crafted with care and rooted in tradition. Regarding the outdoor live music, kindly note that the performances are part of the wider summer entertainment program held in the Praça, a shared outdoor area enjoyed by all restaurants. While it adds a vibrant atmosphere for many, we understand it may not be ideal for everyone. We truly appreciate your comments which help us improve and hope to welcome you back for a more enjoyable experience. Warm regards, Vale do Lobo Team

Ordered steak 400gr to cook on stone told none left. Then ordered Portuguese steak and was told 1 portion left. So eventually ordered rack of lamb which I sent back as it looked like it was deep fried and very little actual lamb. It was Monday so I would presume delivery would have arrived after weekend.. obviously not. Please tell people what you don’t have before you give them the menus. The menu is very restricted as it it. Staff pleasant though

Such a lovely summers eve setting, looking onto Vale do Lobo’s Praça square, with a live band, carousel and dancing children below. The food was all really good, but the lobster was missing from our cataplana, we mentioned & received a discount. The service & ambience were excellent, we would definitely return & recommend!!

There are several new kids on the block at The Praca in Vale do Lobo - but I doubt any of them will come up to the standard of Tinto. From start to finish we could not fault it. Delightful service and the food just sublime all the while overlooking the Praca and the sea. We have been coming to Vale do Lobo for 25 years and this restaurant will get us coming back for more. Well done all of you - making an effort to get it right - thank you

Seaside view from the 1st Floor Very tasteful dishes, we had 8 in total. Excellent Maos Reserva Douro red wine At a certain point I wanted to get the water we ordered from the table assigned to our table for water and wine bottles. The service staff came over apologizing not filling it earlier, so it is that type of servicelevel. Not completely my thing, but something to keep in mind.
