10/10Before we went I requested a good view for the sunset. The staff set up our own table on the outside terrace which is usually reserved for drinks only. After the sun went down and it got cold they allowed us to move inside without question. Server was really good, friendly and made good suggestions for food and wine for us.

10/10Great restaurant with a lovely ambience. We went with two friends from abroad and had the €12 menu which did not disappoint at all. It was tasty and incredible value. Diogo, our waiter mad us feel very welcome and made the experience something to remember. We will be back very soon!

10/10Excellent location and views with a very attractive dining space, attentive staff who know how to deliver a dining experience and a well thought through menu, whilst not cheap offers god value for the quality of food and presentation.

5.5/10The view from this restaurant is amazing, a terrace overlooking the harbour and sea beyond, a great location. The decor is modern with tasteful, trendy furniture. Unfortunately there was not a welcoming atmosphere. Although the waiting staff were attentive, there was no other interaction with us as guests other than to ask what we wanted to order. We all (4) felt the customer service was lacking personal touches. We had no complaints about the food which was beautifully presented and well cooked. I would go back but only for a drink or a coffee to admire that beautiful view!

6.5/10Great food in a great location but some very serious issues with the standard of service. Table staff were perfunctory at best, quite abrupt and seemed to prefer an empty restaurant to having customers!

7/10Didn't ask if we wanted drinks. Brought starter before couvert. Mains ok but have had much better here and elsewhere. Also better service considering restaurant wasn't busy.

4.5/10The restaurant was very quiet , they said they hadn't received the fork booking. Not much choice on the menu. Service was slow, 3 of our party had fillet steak it was chewy, so they all left it. We were not asked how the food was. When the waiter cleared the table and asked hiw the meal was I could see he noticed the steak had not been eaten, I mentioned the steak was chewy he said he would speak with the chef. Poor description of desserts even asked if churros could come with chocolate- they said no . Some ordered them - and they had chocolate under them ! When i paid the bill i asked the waiter if he had mentioned the steak to the chef - he said the chef said it was the steak they had served all day ! I asked if the chef had tried it, he said no. Actually i then must have made it obvious ( from my facial expression ) that this was an amateur response. The manager came over and brought the cash for one steak ! Would we go back ? maybe with friends for the view, but would avoid the steak! Which limits somewhat.

9.5/10The food is excellent, the chef try’s and achieves a very exquisite meting pot of Portuguese ingredients and dishes with a modern French cuisine culture of plating. The views from this contemporary decorated rooftop restaurant on the “Ria Formosa” are superb and complete a feeling of a chic experience by the see. Would have given a 5 for the service if suddenly at the end of the lunch our well trained waiter disappeared and was replace with a trainee who we had to run after to finish the meal and pay the bill.

9.5/10The staff is lovely and so is the food. The table we’d asked for when booking (and calling to check the reservation) wasn’t available upon arrival, so we had to sit inside. The inside is lovely - but the reason I’d booked this restaurant was to show a friend the beautiful views and the terrace- so that was a bit disappointing- but otherwise food and service was absolutely lovely. ☺️ Staff is super helpful.
