Inside, you start to get the feeling that you are dining at your French grandma's home. Duck l'Orange, escargot Burgundy style, lovely entrecôte and a curated french cheese and French wine selection. You won't leave disappointed - guaranteed. Top tip: Reserve well in advance by telephone and you will speak directly to the chef proprietor. He accommodates special diets and if you are lucky enough to score a meal, you will be one of 2 or 3 tables served that evening. Minimum 4 persons for reservations. Pricing is competitive for the region. Don't miss the crème brûlée - flamed table side. Close your eyes and you will think you are dining at a top flight Parisian bistro on the left bank.

Vincent does it all; serves, cooks, pours wine, everything. The food is fresh, country style French. I have not had a bad meal here ever. It's fresh, well prepared and well presented. Vincent's service and the ambiance here is personal. It feels like going into a great chefs home in France. He cooks for you and sometimes might even raise a glass with you. make a reservation- there are only two tables. Highly recommended.

Tonight we shared the piri piri chicken, very hot sauce, and sea bass. Service was quick and the place was immediately full at seven. We ordered a bottle of Portuguese house red wine for $7.50. It was a 2021 edition but was really good, an Alicante Bouchet grape originally from France but transported to southern Portugal. The owner cooks the fish to order on a charcoal grill and it melted in your mouth. We also tried the house specialty, piri piri chicken. The chicken was so tender! We ordered the piri piri on the side as it is very hot. Our sides were chips, french fries in the US, which were addicting and a Portuguese salad with lettuce, onions, tomato, cucumbers and marinated green pepper in a tasty red wine vinegar dressing which perfectly complimented the fried and rich foods. The restaurant is very humble and a challenge to find but if you are in Alvor Lagos Portugal, make the effort to find it in the central part of town. Parking is a challenge and the payment is cash or debit card only, but you will not regret your decision. Thanks for a great last dinner in Portugal.

The staff, especially Edel, was great and very patient with our children. The food was outstanding and the wine was good. Prices were very reasonable for what we received. I recommend the pork cheek and the Francesinha. My children love the beef sandwich. The batatas fritas (French fries/chips) are fresh cut and made. They were quickly devoured. My children recommend the chocolate mousse. I also had banoffee pie and lime pie. All of their desserts are made in-house. The deserts were out of this world, and I highly recommend that you save room in your stomach for dessert. Wine was reasonably priced. A meal like this would have cost twice as much in the US, but it is reasonable even by Portuguese standards. Finish your meal with a 10-year Dow's tawny port and you will be floating in heaven. I would visit Albufeira just to eat here. Highest recommendation!

The front of the restaurant is for take out customers, while the dining room is in the back. The waiter didn't give us any menu, because chargrilled chicken is all they serve! Not much choice for sides either - salads and fries, take it or leave it. No apologies. It's interesting to see big families having dinner here, hard to imagine, for an American, that they can all manage to be satisfied with the same dish, without some diet or preference in the way. As you can imagine, for a restaurant like this, they do one thing and do it really good. Tender chicken with a wonderful chargrilled flavor. My husband loves grilled chicken so this is like the 4th chicken place we visited on the trip, and this one is the clear winner. The fries and salad are just meh though.
