The soup itself was not too salty so why just the shrimps?

The food... you will not find more amazing flavorful dishes and variety of local delicacies. Next... the atmosphere is so fun it is a local's hangout.

My wife's father is from Pico and we are from America. I took her there to visit family and to see this wonderful island for the first time. Tasca o Patrica is a MUST on your check list in Pico.

Like most of restaurants in Pico, they don't have a noticeable signage outside, but only a sign on the glass door. The place is very neat and small in size. They don't have many items on the menu and less for lunch. I thought most items were reasonably priced (8-20 euros for entree), but compared to other places on the island, I guess they're pretty high. I've tried their grilled octopus with pea purée and marinated cauliflower. THE BEST octopus dish I've ever had!! This dish was totally out of this world and was worth every penny!! The service was on a little slow side, but I would definitely go back and highly recommend it!

We were seated in the outdoor porch area and it was a nice space. Without overgeneralizing, A Canadinha gave us a good temperature on restaurant culture on the island. Going out to eat is a two hour dedication. Expect to wait longer for your food but it will be worth it and you will never feel rushed. Personally, the lax service was more my speed but may not be for everyone. I ordered the Bife à Canadinha and was pleasantly surprised that I enjoyed this steak in cream sauce. The wine is cheap and flowing! All the options are well-priced by the bottle. An important note - we wanted to try wines from the island but Terceira mostly produces white wines, so ask about their reds if you're looking to pair it with your steak. Overall, delicious food, great vibe, and friendly people. It's worth a visit!
