    Table on the back deck oceanfront.
    Veronica O.

    I am giving this place four stars based on the location. It is a beautiful view of the ocean from the deck, as you can see from the photos. The service was slow, no one really happily greeted us. We were able to sit down right away as we arrived about 5 PM in the evening on a Tuesday in the summer. There seemed to be plenty of staff but they were not really helpful. I grabbed our own menus and my friend had to shout at the passing waiter to order a beer. The waiter did not stop to ask what I wanted to drink and just kept walking. He brought two beers instead of letting me order something I wanted to drink. So I had to order at that point and send back the extra beer. There were empty tables so I don't know what the issues are with service. I almost didn't order anything to eat as they never came back to ask us what we wanted to eat and when we did finally flag them down I just ordered a sandwich to keep it easy and light. I would recommend this place for drinks As the view is great and it's a beautiful location. Do you not expect prompt service and but be ready to be aggressive with the waiters. I'm not too sure about the food. I see some people posted that the seafood is good but I did not order seafood so I cannot comment on it. So again I can only recommend this restaurant for drinks, not food and very slow service.

    Restaurant right on the beach which was extremely nice. So from our experience you kind of have to wait for a table to open up (the ones that are actually on the beach) in order to claim it. We ended up ordering prawns, Greek salad, salmon wrap, and seafood linguine. The prawns were amazing. The Greek salad on the other hand was okay. The linguine seafood dish was way too bland and the pasta was overlooked.. huge let down. The salmon wrap was actually pretty good! Overall everything was okay.

    It just doesn't get better than this. Taking a boat, ferry or water taxi to the islands of Faro, stopping here for fresh fish and then taking a dip in the blue ocean. Tip number 1, when on an island order fish! I've made the mistake of ordering beef on an island on a separate holiday and let me tell you I definitely learned my lesson. The fishermen who run this place actually live on the island. They fish daily and yes you can taste the different. I didn't think fish could melt in your mouth until I came here. They cook with simple seasoning but just enough to bring out the flavors. If you can get there then make sure you visit!

    Hot chocolate concen... milk carmamel ;)

    Wonderful restaurant : decoration +++ waitress +++ kind and with a lot of attention They are very honest they explain me that the fish was a frozen one not a fresh one. The hot chocolat with caramelo and condensed milk (not whipped cream) at the bottom are chocolat on the top is awesome ;) The herbal tea pineapple and Aloe Vera is good too The shrimps (starters) are really really good.

    So I stayed at an Airbnb next to Wax while on holiday, and since the hosts had recommended it we had to try it.

    Try to sit in the back where you over look the river and bridge. There is ample seating inside,but…read moreseating outside in back is nicer. Food: Vegetables soup - good vegetarian soup Quiche - vegetables quiche with house salad. I liked the fresh corn in it. Calamari with tartar sauce - it was OK but I prefer something less greasy. Fruit smoothie - tropical smoothie All for about 20 euros.

    Tavira Longue is a lovely place which offers something a little different to the many other…read morerestaurants and cafes you will find all over Tavira. It's open throughout the day and well into the wee small hours; hot food is only available during normal restaurant hours but you can get some cold tapas at most other times. If you are drinking or eating in the stylish elegant room, you also get the benefit of free Wi-Fi should you need to get online. After dropping in for a drink a few times during our mini break we decided to have a long, lazy lunch here on our final afternoon in Tavira. We arrived around 1pm to find the little terrace, situated a few buildings down from the Longue itself, fully occupied so we killed some time by visiting the nearby camera obscura. When we returned around 2pm the terrace was almost empty and we got a nice shady table right by the river. I should mention that this is not really a terrace as such, just a few tables and chairs which have been placed on what would appear to be a semi-public piece of ground between the road and the river wall. Having said that it is a lovely spot and sitting here you get perhaps the best views of the Roman bridge and the river Gilao. After a beer and a look at the short but well thought through tapas menu we kicked off by sharing a lovely crostini with fresh local cheese, tomato and avocado. By the time we had finished our crostini time was ticking on and our friendly waiter informed us that if we wanted any hot food we should order now. Well we did, so we cracked on with a plate of calamari. While this was not a patch on the dish we ate at the Brisa, it was pretty tasty but a little greasy. We followed it up with a very nice smoked salmon quiche and some salad. We also had a mixed cheese and meat sharing plate which keep us grazing away through the afternoon. Not too sure what we were drinking other than that is was a white wine I have a feeling it was a bottle of Planalto which would have cost around the 10 euro mark. When it finally came time to pay the bill it was very handy that they accepted credit cards, unlike a lot of other establishments in Tavira, as we were running low on euros and still needed to buy a bottle or two of port for the return to Blighty. All in all a very pleasant way to end our all too brief stay in Tavira.
