O Ancoradouro - Cataplana - typical Portuguese fish stew

I was very happy and a bit surprised we got into this place just by walking up. It was very…read morecrowded which is something we hadn't really seen at other restaurants around town, surely a good sign. Most places in the Azores are casual but this place is the exception and begs you to at least dress up a little bit. The restaurant is very nicely designed and has a nice blue hue to it which is very calming. To continue the calm theme, try to get a table on the covered patio which is gorgeous and looks out over the sea. We got the fish soup, Portuguese sausage, prawn and fish skewer, and the octopus is garlic and olive oil. The fish soup was great. It had great flavor, perfect amount of saltiness and nice pieces of fish, although one should watch out for small bones as I had a few in mine. The sausage had an interesting flavor but it went well with the sweet potato that was with it. My mother got the prawn and fish skewer. I only had one bite but I thought it was just ok. She seemed to enjoy it though and the presentation is not to be missed. I got the octopus in garlic and olive oil and although I don't have a picture of it let me tell you, this was the best octopus I've ever had! It was super tender, not rubbery, and incredibly flavorful. The only drawback is that I wish they would've done something more as a side instead of just plain potatoes. They weren't bad as they soaked up the garlicky olive oil but something more surely could've been done. Overall I really enjoyed this place. The service was slow but the food was good and the views were great. It was just a nice atmosphere in general to enjoy a nice meal.

Great option for outdoor dining with a great view of the ocean in Pico/ Madelena. Octopus, shrimp,…read morePeixe-porco and Veja were the highlights. Reserve in advance to lock in outdoor seating (on the right side if looking out to the ocean. Left side doesn't have a good angle on Horta)

This was our second trip to the Azores but our first time to Pico. We are seasoned foodies and…read morecooks back home in NY....Translated ( not impressed easily... lol) So discovering Atmosfera was a breath of fresh air, or in this case fresh pesto! Cynthia and I combined are 125% Italian so the thought of fresh pasta etc. got us in the car and our way. This place is kind of hard to find. Great property with sweeping views in almost every direction including Mt Pico which I had climbed earlier that day. Let me preface the meal by saying the Azores aren't known for world class cuisine. We love it here, but didn't find any gourmet options on the biggest island - Sao Miguel. So it was surprising that tiny Pico Island would be the place where we finally found a proper gourmet meal prepared by a passionate Italian chef and staff. We had the pesto pasta & the bolognese sauce. The wines were local with some good and very affordable Italian options. The service is personal and warm. Desserts were outrageous; Lemon Meringue Pastry shortbread concoction Panna Cotta We enjoyed so much we returned the following night and ordered some new offerings... Carrot Onion soup - Absolutely amazing with polished presentation ( see pic) Pork Shank- Cynthia ordered this as I normally don't order pork. She let me try it and it stole the show... tender, moist with perfectly prepared roasted potatoes on the side. This dinner was so satisfying we had to skip dessert. We had a different server who was extremely courteous & polished ( which was not our experience at most of the best restaurants on Sao Miguel ). The only negative we felt was the bread. It was served room temperature and just ok. You gotta give a pass for this however , as the Azores aren't London, NY Paris, Rome or San Francisco. In one word.. Delizioso! We hope to return soon

I'm giving this place 2 stars because the location is nice and there's a pretty view…read more We were very disappointed with this restaurant. It claims to be Italian food but I don't find the food here Italian. There's 2-3 Italian dishes and that's it. We ordered 2 appetizers, the cheese board and shrimp cocktail. They were pricy appetizers so I was expecting a large cheese board and a traditional shrimp cocktail with large cold shrimp and cocktail sauce. Instead, we got 6 small slices of cheese, 2 thin slices of pear and 1 walnut. We also got 4 hot over cooked shrimp, a questionable sauce which was not cocktail sauce over a salad... I don't know what that was but it was not shrimp cocktail. The appetizers were very disappointing. We ordered 2 pastas. The waitress raved over the noodles being homemade. I've had homemade noodles before and they're very soft... I didn't find the noodles soft. The sauce also wasn't very good and kind of bitter. We were excited about this place from the reviews but unfortunately we didn't find it very good. With the prices reflected on their menu being on the higher side, I guess we expected more. Advice : appetizers are meant to be shared. 6 small slices of cheese and a few thin sliced pears and 1 walnut isn't enough. Google "restaurant cheese boards" and "shrimp cocktail" and see how they're typically presented at restaurants. Also, shrimp cocktail is something which is very popular and is expected to be a cocktail sauce with chilled shrimp which aren't over cooked or warm.
