in the last weekOne of the oldest restaurants in Faro old Town. Delightful atmosphere, traditional Portuguese food and an extensive wine list. It has a terrace however I would recommend enjoying the decor of the inside.

in the last weekLekker eten, vriendelijke bediening. Enige minpuntje was dat we niet de romeinse tunnels konden bezoeken terwijl we bij onze reservatie vermeld hadden dat we dit wensten. Het kon enkel buiten de lunchuren terwijl dit nergens zo vermeld was.

in the last weekI ordered food at approximately 9 pm. I waited around one hour for my meal. A table that arrived approximately 30 minutes after me received their food at the same time as I did. When I raised the issue, I was only told that the kitchen was busy, without a clear explanation or any proposed resolution. I believe the waiting time and handling of my complaint were unreasonable. I request a written explanation and an appropriate resolution.
