    The food is amazing value and excellent quality. We ordered the ceviche 3 times, it's so tasty. The only reason this doesn't get a 5 star is because when you order, expect them to serve it in a completely random order and either 30 minutes late or 2 hours late. No really, I asked for water about 5x over 3 hours. But you know what, this is a great place and I'll be back tomorrow.

    Great place! We enjoyed some tapas and perfectly mixed Aperol Spritz! Definitely recommend this for couples.

    This place is the gem of Faro. The outside seating area has a beautiful atmosphere in the evening. The food was just amazing - the octopus and sweet potato is an absolute MUST TRY!! Reasonably priced for what you get. Would definitely come back here!

    The place has a lovely location in the heart center of the Faro with really nice outdoor vibes. Food was ok, not wow and not bad. They surely knew how to sell the concept with the menu and specially the drinks menu. Staff were always in a hurry but friendly.

    Excellent vibe and lovely food. Tapas were excellent, I loved the grilled veggies mix and also the pork with garlic. To die for! Highly recommended experience in old town Faro, loved the atmosphere on the terrace! Mixed drinks are excellent too!

    As others have said, the service here is quite poor. We eventually decided to ask a different server to serve us since it was taking too long and he was much more attentive and respectful. Do not get the ceviche unless you want to pay €17 for a "shareable" dish.

    It was a sad dinner. The bread basket is not worth it at all, the bread was stale and dry. The food is way too expensive while the portions are super small and only tastes mediocre. Why serve fried chicken if it doesn’t come with rice?

    Wonderful atmosphere at night and I got some juicy teriyaki chicken wings!

  • 4/5 James F. Q. 1 year ago on Google
    Very nice Tapas style Restaurant. Very popular spot with the locals which is always a good sign... Not expensive. Very nice staff and nice service. I've been here twice and I'm looking forward to coming back again.

    We made this place “our place” the three days we stayed in Faro as our cocktail place de before heading for dinner. Next time we come we try the food which also seemed to be great! Mixologists and the service was exceptional. They were absolutely lovely. They know what they do!

  • 4/5 Bailey M. 11 months ago on Google
    A nice place for drinks and an appetizer! We had a spritz and another tropical style mixed drink. Sweet potato fries were our app of choice and they were really good! Really nice outdoor seating as well. I suggest you make a reservation because they are really really busy, and you could be turned away if you don’t reserve a table in advance. Wait staff is really nice and explains drinks/ dishes well.

  • 5/5 Vasiliki V. 10 months ago on Google
    This place is one of the best bar-restaurants we experienced in Faro. The food and the cocktails were amazing, the service good as well. Recommend it hands down.!

  • 5/5 Gabriella B. 10 months ago on Google
    It was fantastic here. I had Palomas which are not that popular where I live. The waiting staff overheard that it was my partner's big (big like 100) birthday 🎈🎂 and they discounted our bill which they really shouldn't have. But myself coming from long years of hospitality, I wouldn't expect this. It was still really special after a day of delayed flight and extra charges 😍

    Fantastic food, cocktails, wine, service and atmosphere. Husband and I went a few times during our time in Faro last fall. 10/10!

  • 5/5 heather s. 7 months ago on Google
    Adorable atmosphere. Music, soccer and a great staff. Everyone was friendly. Food was delicious. The pork tacos and croquettes were amazing. We also had a bunch of other shareables and all were delicious. Cocktails were incredible.

  • 5/5 Monika O. 2 years ago on Google
    Great stuff, delicious drinks and the best sweet fries i've ever eaten! When you in Faro, you have to visit this place.

  • 5/5 Megan P. 1 year ago on Google
    One of the best places we found for in Faro, definitely recommend a visit. Even on a Wednesday evening it was busy, but managed to be served quickly. Drink of the day was delicious and the tacos (FAO x MX) were amazing even if they unexpectedly tasted more like curry tacos - we're not complaining! 💖

  • 5/5 Naomi 1 year ago on Google
    Fantastic place for drinks and antipasti! We ordered a few wines and the chacuterie board of cheeses and meats, was absolutely delicious. Slightly overpriced but great service and atomsphere.

  • 3/5 Aga N. 1 year ago on Google
    Very nice place with a great atmosphere! Drinks were very good but food was ok-ish. Peppers were tasty. Nevertheless, squids weren’t good…pure breadcrumbs, which reminded me of cheap, frozen squids that you can but at a supermarket. However, in general it’s a nice place for a cozy evening and nice drinks.

    This place is off the main street has a back garden so your away from the main drag.. Is a predominantly a fish restaurant but there's a good selection off other stuff.. The waiter was most helpful.. Helped to chose a fish and cut it up?.. But watch it said 14/90 euros.. But the bill came 45 euros.. Och but the meal was nice

  • 5/5 David K. 1 year ago on Google
    Excellent food and service. Also great drinks (sharing flowers 10/10).

  • 3/5 Laura 1 year ago on Google
    Nice food and cocktails. Majority of staff were unwelcoming. Long wait for food almost an hour and each member of party was served at different times. One staff member was very helpful with dietary restrictions.

  • 4/5 Mehrdad P. 2 years ago on Google
    We watched the Portugal match there and it was a nice setup and atmosphere, and not as busy as the the sports bar. We had various snacks and drinks and they were nice as well. Some of the staff did not seem as friendly but the girl who took care of our table was super nice and friendly. Overall a nice experience!

  • 5/5 Mija 2 years ago on Google
    Really friendly staff, delicious Portuguese tapas and a lovely atmosphere. I would recommend the steak!

  • 2/5 Thoma D. 2 years ago on Google
    Service was good although they forgot several dishes. The food we ordered was OK, but not worth the money. Components of certain dishes were also switched by alternative ingredients without telling us.

  • 5/5 HTGV H. 2 years ago on Google
    Very friendly service and great prices for high quality food. Steak was perfectly cooked and some great cocktails too.

  • 5/5 Thales E. 2 years ago on Google
    Amazing quality food and good prices. I always go with the octopus + mimosas and usually bubbles for the beginning. Staff is 10 stars!

  • 5/5 Eric S. 2 years ago on Google
    Cool place, tasty gamba, and tasty Padron peppers but a little slow service (a lot of people for only 2 employees
