Service

The most gorgeous meal here tonight. Cannot fault a thing. Service was excellent, staff friendly and food delicious. Will be returning before we leave this week for another meal!

The restaurant has a lovely outdoor space and is popular for its daily lunch specials. The staff is friendly and welcoming, enhancing the overall dining experience.

Simply excellent cuisine!! Quality of fish and meat is really good and Andy is a very talented chef. To recommend absolutely!!

Quiet Friday evening in Faro old town. Friendly service, The seafood rice dish is very good.A bit overpriced compared to other restaurants in Faro serving the same dishes.

Everything here is exceptional. Great food, great service, great location. We&#39;ve been here twice and will be back for more.

The terrace offers stunning sea views, and the apple Tatin dessert is a must-try &ndash; it&#39;s served warm with ice cream and is simply delightful.

The seafood here is incredibly fresh, and the homemade desserts are a delightful bonus. It&#39;s conveniently located right on the beach.

Great service, we arriveren with 1 person in a Wheel chair , the waiters liftend the chair so we had a nice spot in the restaurant

Dining here has become a regular occurrence when visiting Portimao. The food and wine are always superb. Thank you to the team for recommending wines to accompany the dishes - so knowledgeable and friendly. We&rsquo;ll be back!

Really like the Pizza here . It was my favorite. A thin, crispy crust with both traditional and some inventive toppings. The staff are very warm and welcoming. We&rsquo;ll definitely be back!

Great seafood, friendly service. A little bit out of the city centre, but definitely worth walking the extra kilometer!

This was one the best restaurants I&rsquo;ve been to recently in the Algarve! The food was delicious, the service excellent and the ambience and setting felt very authentic. Would definitely recommend it!

Excellent choice of food, and very reasonably priced. curried chicken risotto was sadly lacking in chicken, but the flavour was superb. Great house wine and not overpriced.

We had a great meal here. We just had the tapas but a great selection. It was one of those menus where you could have enjoyed every tapas choice. We had between the two of us and were very full.The wine selection is very good and the prices are excellent.The staff are friendly and well trained.

We had the most wonderful evening yesterday. Starting off on the roof top restaurant being looked after by Nunu, who was very friendly and attentive and there was a really good vibe with the music playing. The food was excellent.We then moved down to the bar area where we were served by Eve who was also extremely friendly and efficient.A fabulous experience, we will definitely return.

It&rsquo;s a bit more pricier but worth it, I would recommend the combinations. But unfortunately the discount doesn&rsquo;t apply to them. Lovely atmosphere. With all the takeaway the service got a bit slowly even only with 4 tables occupied. All in all great experience and quality

The restaurant offers a beautiful outdoor seating area with a lovely atmosphere, making it a great spot for a relaxing meal.

Mentes tapas bar serves fantastic Portuguese style tapas dishes. The service was super friendly and professional. The atmosphere is cozy and we were seated at a large table which was great so you had lots of space to share all the tasty tapas. The beef strips with pepper sauce, the melted goat cheese, the home made tacos and the garlic prawns were all fantastic. The flavors are nicely balanced and the portions are perfect for sharing.&nbsp;We completed our meal with an exquisite chocolate petit gateau and a tasty lemoncake with ice cream. The gateau was the best we have tasted in a while, in fact it was so good we ended up ordering another extra gateau.&nbsp;A special compliment for the manager, she really made us feel very welcome and ensured everything ran very smoothly during our thoroughly enjoyable evening. I would definitely recommend visiting Mentes tapas and we will be coming back again soon.

Food and service is very good. Wine service was excellent with expert selections and knowledge. Pace of serving was executed well and felt food came at the right times.

We were so late to this reservation, but the staff was so friendly and understanding. The drinks and food are authentic! This is a must visit. Can&rsquo;t wait to come back.

Wine and food was amazing! Lots of choices and variety of dishes.  Huge delicious portions ensure you will leave completely satisfied!!

Great and friendly staff make you feel welcome immediately. Sushi chefs are quick and create delightful rolls and goyzas at very reasonable prices.  The spicy tuna rolls are the best!

Great dishes, the waiter was really nice with us. Sadly the card wasn&rsquo;t translated in English and my translation app was wrong so we take a really long time to choose

Visited here for lunch before going on a boat trip with my 2 children. Did not have a children&#39;s menu but the owner said he could make some small dishes for my children which was great. Food was excellent and very reasonable for the quality. Would visit again and recommend to others to try.

I can highly recommend this place. The food was incredibly good. We will eat there again, rest assured. Thank you very much!

Loved this restaurant! The food was amazing, and the suggestions by the Sommelier were spot on. The atmosphere is perfect for a romantic dinner, especially with the stunning view of the Vilamoura Marina.

I had the tagliatelle con ragu al coltello e tartufo, and it was exceptional! Just a note on the wine service, I prefer to pour my own, but the staff were attentive.

From the perfectly prepared shrimp soup to the crispy house-made fries, every dish is wonderfully seasoned and absolutely delicious.
