    It’s a lovely little restaurant, and they say they “love pets,” but there’s no water offered for them, and dogs aren’t allowed on the sofa. My little one is a lapdog—honestly cleaner than most people I know! I don’t want to sound difficult, but they could definitely make the place more genuinely pet-friendly.

    We have had the pleasure of attending here twice, once for lunch and once for dinner over new year. The food was of the highest level, fresh, lots of flavour and great presentation. The restaurant itself is presented in a modern picture perfect setting with every detail thought through. All 5 of the family enjoyed the various meals and we cannot wait to visit again.

    Great location beautifully renovated and presented with car parking in the middle of Carvoeiro!!! The staff were first class in terms of welcome and assistance with choices. The menu is very different from the standard offering and very special. We had a wonderful brunch for 4 for €20 per head, not by any means the cheapest buy certainly amongst the best

    What a lovely restaurant… staff were fabulous, brunch was gorgeous and the setting is clean modern and so inviting. We sat out in the garden and the staff couldn’t be more accommodating. Have booked a table for Friday evening as they have music- wonderful find .

    tables are far too small so not a pleasant experience trying to fit everything on the table. it is OK for 2 but not 4. Service quite slow. some seemed unsure of what they were doing. wine wasn't rhe best so we asked fir a bottle of red to have with the meal. meal almost finished by the time they brought it despite asking a few times.

    Service of staff is impeccable. Selection of Pizza choices available is a little limited. Toppings could also be a little more generous. On the whole very enjoyable.

    We visited this restaurant twice in the last two weeks. Both times, we arrived at 7 pm and enjoyed the peaceful ambiance, especially seated in the garden. The starters were excellent—we had burrata both times and asparagus on the second visit. High-quality ingredients made a great start. However, the pizzas were inconsistent. The first visit, the pizzas had great toppings but were slightly overcooked. The second time, they were bland and unremarkable, which was surprising given the first experience. My wife had the Bianca Mortadella both times, and they looked and tasted completely different, which was disappointing. The service also needs improvement. The staff seemed young and inexperienced, with interactions that didn’t match the price range of the restaurant. Lastly, note that menu prices don’t include VAT, which made the final bill feel unexpectedly high. Despite the lovely ambiance, the inconsistency and service issues need attention.

    Music from the beginning was atrocious, with heavy club music for a brunch setting. Then the service were overrun and everything took a long time to come, with multiple items being forgotten. More people serving would really help elevate the good food they served for us.

    Great atmosphere, food was great although our Pizza could have left the oven 1 min sooner, a tad too crispy. But still great taste!

    Food is fresh and delicious Staff and friendly, polite and welcoming. We went for brunch many times and the quality was high and consistent. Also went for pizza one night, they freshly prepare the bases every morning and they are oven stone baked, delicious. They also have live music ( a dj) on Saturdays and Friday nights, as well as 2 small shacks with locals sellers who sell pottery and art pieces. Wonderful atmosphere and very inviting and alive. The place is very modern and well designed interior and the exterior has lots of seating outside. Would recommend for breakfast, lunch or dinner.

    A great escape from the hustle and bustle. We have spent a few memorable evenings here this summer. A beautiful space with attention to detail and great food. I wish the owners success and look forward to visiting next year 😀

    We made a reservation for 11 people for lunch at Encci. The service was very attentive and personal, EXTRAORDINARY! The ambiance in their outdoor terrace/garden is absolutely beautiful! The food itself was outstanding! Salads & wraps were bursting with flavour! Our group had a dog, and it's a pet friendly venue. Great music was playing, just such a lovely place. We will be back for sure to try their pizzas. We Canadians highly recommend it! Thanks for a great experience Encci!

    Wonderful hidden garden restaurant serving delicious pizza and options of vegan ice cream! Service was great and waiters were extremely helpful, it was just a bit slow as I believe they were understaffed. Otherwise would have been perfect!
