10/10Initially I was intrigued by the restaurants great reviews and wanted to try it out myself to see if the hype was correct and justified. Pleased to say it’s all true. My husband and I enjoyed every plateful, generous portions and lots of variety. The garlic prawns were delicious along with the mushroom gratin. Give it a try whenever you’re in Faro. Enjoy 😋

7.5/10
I was imediately seated by I'm not sure they were ready to open as the dining room area.was very warm and stuffy. The service itself was good and my two choices were ok and excellant asi highly recommend the pork cheeks. I think the uncomfortable room temp/ atmosphere unfortunately took away from the whole experience so rating reflects it.

+1Stunning wee restaurant with the friendliest staff. We had the stuffed pork cheek with sweet potato, goats cheese (recommended by the staff), ham/egg/chip dish (can’t remember the name of it but it was brilliant!), fish (tiras de choco), and lemon meringue pie to finish. It was divine. Highly recommend.

5.5/10The menu is limited. It took very long. It was not many people when we made our order...the service was non existing.. Table is far too small for tapas and wine. Just not comfortable at all

10/10The restaurant is cosy. It’s situated right in the centre of Faro with 100% local vibe. Despite the fact that the menu is not extensive at all, it’s ideal to make your choice and not to get lost. The cuisine is 100% local with modern view. Waiters are ready to recommend ideal wine pairing for the dish of your selection. Prices are reasonable and even lower than I would have expected.

8/10Great tasty tapas although the portions are way too big to actually call them tapas. We enjoyed the food and the atmosphere. Was a crowded night but the staff managed quit well in good spirit would absolutely go back a next time.

10/10A really super place, interesting room with a vaulted ceiling. As other people have said the plates are bigger than normal Tapas plates 4 should be sufficient for two people. However, we had 5 as we had ordered the goats cheese as an extra -in fact we ate it as if it was a pudding and it was delicious. The food is excellent, and we particularly enjoyed the carpaccio of cod which was smoked

10/10The best place we have eaten in Faro hands down. Well presented, perfectly cooked and tasty food at a reasonable price. We rebooked whilst still eating! The waiting staff were helpful, friendly and attentive and the restaurant was clean and well appointed with a calm and inviting atmosphere.

10/10Space was amazing, everyone is really nice, I think price/quality ratio is good. Food was amazing, they have some special plates out the normal menu, especially octopus with sweet potatoes (with a dash of cinnamooon) was so good! Had bad luck with one dish that was lacking some seasoning, apart from that 10/10!
