“ On a busy day 25 April (Freedom Day) our waiter was outstanding. He was run off his feet and never missed a beat. All our dishes arrived pronto. Prawns were great, Quijo e presunto was delicious. Thanks for being terrific on your National Day. ”
“ in my opinion a good surprise in a place where average or bad restaurants are aplenty. I ordered the sea bream (dourada or dourada real) and it came after a while nicely cooked "a la plancha" with steamed potatoes and fresh salad. everything is home made here including the Octopus that i never eat because of my diving passion. the pudin was very nice as well. Today's testing of Tarquinio was a success and also is kind of a museum since the boss R. is a fan of Formula1 and of Brazil in the nineties with a helmet of Ayrton Senna ! ”
“ Nothing like a late snack after a sunset walk in the beach in Costa da Caparica at this character fun and full of personality restaurant: from a boat hanging from the ceiling to motorbikes helmets from the 70s on the shelfsand that's the decoration, what about the music? Any guesses? Bob Marley y'all... Great fun I have to say... everyone were talking, laughing, sharing how they were enjoying the food they were eating or what they should order next, really good vibe. That's when I knew that I definitely was on holiday. And there's so much more...so go and find out. Oh about my late snack I had snails typical snack in Portugal, and pushed it down with a glass of sangria great!!!! ”
“ Delicious food. Kids loved the sandwiches and the toast (toasted bread with ham and cheese). SALADA DO MAR was delicious. Service was good. ”
“ Very warm place with an incredible atmosphere, fantastic food (especially the mussels in tomato sauce – they were the best! ) and an amazing view. But what impressed me the most were the people who worked there — people full of inspiration, dedication, and passion for their work. During my entire stay in Costa de Caparica, I visited this place for dinner many times, and every single time it was perfect. The restaurant was full every day, yet the staff were super friendly and kind, and the food was prepared very quickly. The team always took a moment to check on me, asking how everything was, how my food was — despite the restaurant being full. They always strived to take care of and pay attention to every guest, and that’s so delightful . Thank you once again for making my stay in Costa de Caparica so memorable. And thank you for the lovely cocktails — especially the Caipirinha! ))) ”
