I've been in Ponta Delgada for about two weeks now and as much as I love the fresh meats and dairy…read moreproducts (I am neither a vegetarian nor vegan), I was in desperate need of some vegetables. I heard about this restaurant from some friends and decided to give it a try. Since by first visit, I have been back two more times, and will most likely return a few more times during my one-month stay in Ponta Delgada. Treze is a perfect restaurant located on Rua de São João. Not only do they have fresh and delicious juices, but they serve clean and fresh salads (full of greens, beans, cabbage, cucumbers, etc.) and as of last week, have added a few dinner options to their rich menu. During my first visit, I had the Canellonis de espinafres com queijo de cabra (spinach cannellonis with goat cheese). It was PERFECTION! I love spinach and goat cheese and the combination was perfect! I wish the portion size were a bit bigger, because I was definitely left wanting more! During my second visit, I decided to explore the new (and albeit small dinner menu) and ordered the Caril de ananás e batatas doce (sweet potato curry and pineapple). This plate was so rich and flavorful, I wiped my plate clean! The curry, sweet potato and pineapple flavors perfectly complemented one another and with the addition of green beans, peas, and tomato definitely made it a very filling dish! On my third visit (thus far!) I decided to try one of their freshly pressed juices. I went with the Berry juice which included bananas, strawberries and oranges. A very refreshing drink after a long day of exploring the island! I'd like to add that the staff at Treze are extremely nice. I've even had the pleasure of meeting the owner of the restaurant who is very interested in hearing feedback from her customers. On an island that has plenty of meat and fish options, Treze is a refreshing alternative for vegetarians and for those of us craving some fresh vegetables and fruits. Can't wait for my next visit!

The entire trip I was trying to find a place for my wife to have a great meal, since she's vegetarian. One of the couples found this place while walking around the city. A little background into the food on the island, overall we found a lot of the other restaurants to be bland in terms of flavor, spices, etc., but at Treze, it was the absolute opposite... so much flavor in everything and the homemade quality made it even better. The staff and owner were just as amazing and very sweet, which just enhanced the experience. I highly recommend this place and again, even if you are a meat-eater, you will find something delicious on this menu. Guaranteed!

Even though it was busy and there was a line, it moved quickly since they were hustling.

The mushroom salad was one of the better salads I've had. The Indian chef fashioned some lovely curries for the evening specials. Truly: whatever your dietary needs, it's here and it's tasty and it's cheap. I was also impressed by the bar. They don't carry anything they don't find sufficiently delicious and their taste is solid. Want a nice wine? There are several. Sick of Super Bock? There's a selection of beautiful artisanal beers. Cocktails? So. Many. So good! This place is definitely worth the time, especially if you want a veggie filled break between your fried fish and Azorean muffins elsewhere.

They loved the Bob Marley songs and the service was just as friendly. 1. Cheese fondue dip - 3.8/5. My favorite dish with lots of cheese and bread which came in a bread bowl.

Overall, if you're visiting Ponta Delgada, this place is a good restaurant to spend a night at even if it's just one night.
