    The fillet steak was so tasty, and such great value at just €22! My husband had the Portuguese Cod which was also very tasty and very high quality. The evening was finished with a traditional shot of Port ???? We’ll definitely be returning ????????

    Honestly, one of the few truly excellent local restaurants in Almancil. The best fish in the area including the beach restaurants (the sole is exquisite), terrific service and great value. Owners are on hand…such a lovely team. Can’t recommend this spot more highly.

    Delicious meat and seafood, not to mention chocolate crepes at excellent prices. Topped off with the owner playing guitar and singing for each table. Wonderful evening.

    Even though the restaurant was very busy the service did not falter. An excellent meal reasonably priced with even a little bit of entertainment. What is not to like

    It never disappoints! What a lovely place to have a meal with friends and family.....great atmosphere and everyone chats to everyone, so it feels like a private dinner party. We totally enjoyed our meal, the singing and the general fun atmosphere.

    Gamboa is the best restaurant and dining experience in town! Fish is so fresh and everything is very reasonably priced and you will be well looked after by Rui and the team! Bonus of music at the end of your meal some evenings, a total experience! Not to be missed when visiting Almancil! 10/10 recommend!
