The brothers that run the place are all about serving up good food and lots of it--portion sizes are huge! Most entrees can be split between two people. Entrees include salad, soup and bread with olives. It was refreshing for us to eat away from the touristy areas where you are charged extra for simple things like bread. The soup served with our meal was a tasty pumpkin soup with greens, the salad is your basic lettuce salad with onion. My order of Mahi Mahi was expertly grilled and was extremely fresh. My dining companions ordered the mixed grill which was enormous, 3 kinds of meats. All the food we ordered including two pitchers of sangria came to a measly 35 Euro! You cannot beat the value. Service was brusque as it is a small location and people line up waiting for a table. Unfortunately we only made it there once but would definitely return on our next visit.

We ordered the "Algarvian Cataplana," which had a lot of seafood and some very good pork. It was fantastic! To start, my wife had a sangria. The waiter recommended the rosé one, which was a surprise. He brought the sangria in a small pitcher and put the final touches (mixing in some mint) at the table, then poured her glass. We've had sangria all over Spain and Portugal, and this may be the best I've ever tasted (yes, she let me taste). The service was friendly, the pace relaxed, and the energy great. This is well worth finding.

THE BEST, I had the catch of the day and wasn't a fan. My husband had the pork shank and was like butter. It was out of this world good. Order that. . Go here and you won't regret it.

If you think ahead try to get reservations for a seat overlooking the beach from above, we didn't but we were lucky enough to be seated outside so those facing it have a nice view of the ocean, I was the odd man out, what a nice dad I think you're thinking. The service was good although the waiter felt that he had to tell some sort of joke every time he came to the table which wasn't bad but by the end you realized that he was trying to make a joke every time he came to the table. I had the grilled fish, I believe it was golden bream, it was amazing but who doesn't like grilled fish. My daughters shared the Cataplana which was a hit.
