I stumbled upon O Walter on my walk from a shop to the beach...a new route for me. The food looked delicious, the patio was full and the tourist/prix fixe menu sounded good. For several times after that, I noticed the same thing whenever I walked past the restaurant. So, when my friend visited in October and asked for a budget-friendly lunch, I suggested O Walter.
Lunch was so delicious!!! (We ate from the tourist menu.) And, our waiter Osmar was friendly and attentive. Not only ensuring we were enjoying our meal and beverages, Osmar also set up an extra umbrella and adjusted it whenever the sun shifted so that we'd be in the shade. He also left us at ease to enjoy a long and relaxing lunch.
Lunch was so tasty that we decided to return for dinner a few days later. We ate the house specialty and thoroughly enjoyed it. Osmar and his colleague engaged in conversation with us, even entertained my friend's 9-month-old and played a prank on my friend. It was such an enjoyable evening filled with delicious food, great wine and good laughs with the friendly staff! It felt like we were dining with old friends instead of restaurant staff we had just met.
I highly recommend the food -- both the tourist menu and the house specialties great. The house wine and desserts are good too. And, friendly and attentive staff are wonderful. read more
