We came here unexpectedly after a long and tiring day on the Rota Vicentina. There was actually a…read morerestaurant down the block here in Zambujeira do Mar that overlooked the sea and beach, but which served more traditional "home style" food and at which we already stopped for a snack earlier in the evening before running some errands. We had walked by here earlier also and loved the decor, style, ambience, and variety on the menu - so we decided to come back. My goodness we weren't disappointed - the service AND food were outstanding! We wanted seafood but I'm a little squeamish about eating whole fish. So our waiter ensured that our super fresh sea bass was nicely filleted for us. We also got various vegetable sides including a delicious pimientos de padron, and garlic-marinated olives. We also got a really delicious wine recommendation from the region that went perfectly with the sea bass. To top it all off, just before bringing the check we were given a taste of local hazelnut liqueur and it was DELICIOUS - I'm going to have to buy some before heading back to the US!

The food across the board was excellent--every dish we tried was flavorful, well-prepared, and felt thoughtfully put together. You can tell there's real intention behind both the menu and execution. What really elevated the experience, though, was our waiter, Bernardo. He brought incredible energy to the table--full of personality, engaging, and genuinely fun to interact with. At the same time, his service was top-notch: attentive without being overbearing, helpful with recommendations, and clearly passionate about what he does. Great food is one thing, but when you pair it with service like that, it turns into a memorable experience. Highly recommend--and if you get Bernardo, you're in for a great time.

It comes with some…read morerules--each is customer is required to order at least 2 tapas that are about a half meal each--then you can share them. I had read in Yelp that lines could be long, but we arrived early. They have a little red rope at the door where they explain the rules. The interior is kind of eclectic. They have wines at three price points, we got a really nice bottle of red called Pops reserve. For the tapas, we ordered the assorted cheeses, octopus risotto, duck breast with chips (not normally on the menu), and ceviche. All were superb. We started with the duck and ceviche. The duck was braised perfectly and seasoned well, wonderful. Then the ceviche had swordfish and tuna. I am not normally a sword fan, but this was very tasty. Next up were the cheese and risotto. The risotto was incredible, buttery and delicious. The cheese plate had 5 cheeses of different intensity. All were great, particularly the goat ones. It came with a pumpkin jam which I had never had before, but was very good. I definitely recommend this place

The giltfish was seasoned well and cooked properly but the cod was a disaster - it was overcooked and under seasoned.

For many reasons other than just their fresh, delicious foods but the experience overall is stellar. It is a restaurant on a boat that's docked which means you can get there by car or by boat. In my case I went there by boat and I believe the only boating company allowed to dock there at the moment is Lisbon Private Tours and Transfers in Lisbon, Portugal (I will be adding and writing a review on them as well soon). From the moment of our arrival we were met by the owner and chef who is not only a gracious host but an incredible cook. The boat/restaurant has 3 levels. First level is the entrance level with lavatories and some seating and tables. The second level is their main dining room which is covered by surrounded by windows and is absolutely beautiful. The third level is the roof top dining area which provides spectacular views which are even more amazing at sunset. There we watched the sunset while having cocktails. We then moved to the second floor level for a spectacular meal chosen and prepared by the owner, starting from appetizers to fish entree followed by meat entree and finished off by a platter of various desserts. Everything tasted fresh and was cooked to perfection. My colleagues and I were in awe not only for the delicious taste of the food but the venue, presentation and the professional and welcoming staff. It was an experience I will always remember and will make sure to return and share the experience with as many people as I can. I urge anyone traveling in Lisbon to make this a stop in their list of places to visit. Bom apetite!
