We had the most unbelievable dining experience here! The seafood was incredibly fresh, and you could truly taste the quality in every bite. The staff was exceptionally friendly, making the entire visit even more enjoyable. It's rare to find a place that nails both the food and the atmosphere so perfectly. I wholeheartedly recommend this spot to anyone who loves amazing seafood!

Nice and cosy place, great atmosphere, excellent food and very good service (perfect English). We had no reservation but the stuff arranged a table for four on Sunday afternoon.

We had a great dinner experience with local fish and tuna. All of the catch was explained so that we could choose easily. Very nice people, we will come back :)

We were searching for a seafood restaurant in the area and we were lucky to find this place. From the moment we entered, we were welcomed by a friendly, but professional and attentive staff. They answered all our questions, explained the different meals on the menu and made valuable suggestions. The grilled squid and the catch of the day fish were really tasty and good value for money. The home-made passion fruit mousse and the flamed pineapple we had as dessert were exquisite. We also liked the stylish decor, which gives the place its character. The restaurant has its own parking spaces for visitors, so arriving by car isn't a problem. Overall, we enjoyed our dinner here and were leaving really satisfied.

Friendly staff, helpful waiter and an amazing cook !!The people next to us mentioned they were here for the forth time during there holiday and I can see why!!If you taste their fish plates you will know what they mean... You won’t regret it !Enjoy

Our best experience at the whole island. Fresh fish and seafood, amazing Cataplana, best starter - octopus salad And the octopus as the main dish was absolutely fantastic. Please make a reservation ahead. However at about 18:00 when they are just opening you may have a luck and be seated! Your must-visit at the whole Azores archipelago!
