Must try place in Faro! Absolutely great chef with fresh fishes and oysters, brilliant! We had 4 type of fishes, 6 oysters , bottle of house wine (white) (incl. Salad and fries) - great service as well! Highly recommend if you want to try good local food, and really reasonable price

The best place to eat in Faro if you like fish. The owner is a fisherman and offers his catch of the day. No menu, you can choose from the variety caught. The fish is very fresh and cooked simply on a bbq. They also offer a meat selection. Locals eat here, and it is probably the cheapest fish restaurant you’ll find in town. Highly recommended!

Great Value Amazing service. Nice people, tasty fish! I have been there for a lunch after reading a review about this restaurant. The reviewer was totally right. Very good place to have some fish. All my friends were happy and it made me happy too. We had more or less 6-7 fish and bread with mixed salad and wine. We paid 52 euro. Amazing value! Thank you for everything :)

From outside you would think that is not welcoming but believe me this place will surprise you!!! Firts of all the service is really friendly and the atmosphere is like home feeling. I had some fish which were deliciously grilled. The salad is just tasty, it has remind me the tunisian salad. The quality of the product is generally fresh. The great thing is you can choose your meat or fish. I felt happy to be in this place as it is managed by a family. Honest dishes for more then fair price. Thank you and good luck with all especially because of this Covid! Keep your positif mind and your smile. :)

There is no menu. You can choose the type of fish/clam/meat dislayed. The negrona we had was perfectly prepared. So were the clams we ordered. The service was great. Definitely worth a visit. A favorite amongst locals. They're gonna see us soon again.

Local place, always crowded. The waiter is pretty bad, but you can eat super fresh fish and sea food for very low prices.

Entering the restaurant I felt I am in the house of a fishermmans family, except that all the rooms were dining rooms and crowded with all kind of people (locals, backpacker tourists, businessmen, the guys from the docks) enjoying simple seafood grilled to perfection. The service was a bit chaotic and slow to take our order, but once the order was taken, the wheels were greased. The staff was however friendly and helpful, but you could notice that they have capacity issues at peaktime. What we ate: Dorada fish: grilled perfectly. The texture was great and the taste was simple - no spices only salt - and very satisfying just by itself, probably because the fish was fresh and the dourada has a very nice taste without having to upgrade it with spices. Sardines: properly grilled and both the texture and the taste were amazing thanks to the extra coarse salt they used when grilled. Fishes were served with simple tomato and onion salad and cooked new potato (as usual here). For dessert we tried the orange cake and the almond cake. In a previous review, about Cafe dos mestres in Fuseta I mentioned that I will try orange cake at every restaurant I eat in Algarve. This is the second place I eat it and so far the best. Was less sweet than at the Cafe dos mestres and the taste of the orange was more dominant. The place is like a big home restaurant and the athmosphere and the interior design is in harmony with the food they serve. The place has quite positive vides, it is perfect to have a joyful, loud family lunch or dinner with friends. Price for value: so far the best in my Algarve restaurant wanderings.
