😠 I'm a Brazilian who lives in the US. Got to this restaurant, walked in alone and asked (in Brazilian Portuguese) if they could seat us, a waiter (?) Told me I had to come back in 40 minutes. I pointed to the empty tables, he said the kitchen was closed. Well, 1 minute later my American husband then... People often mention beach, great, good, restaurant, staff, lovely, service,

    I'm a Brazilian who lives in the US. Got to this restaurant, walked in alone and asked (in Brazilian Portuguese) if they could seat us, a waiter (?) Told me I had to come back in 40 minutes. I pointed to the empty tables, he said the kitchen was closed. Well, 1 minute later my American husband then came into the restaurant alone instead of me and was seated immediately. Didn't want to make a scene and ruin my family's lunch, but would definitely not be coming back. Place has decent food otherwise.

    Delicious food. We ordered sardines, octopus salad, oysters and a bottle of wine. Everything was SUPER fresh (the most important factor when ordering the sea food...). The prices are normal when you compare it to the competitors and the area (believe me, we payed much more yesterday for an average food). Plus you have a view at the ocean, really friendly crew, great and fresh sea food! I didn't try burgers... btw. it's the ocean, you have a chance to try SEA food... Don't waste it! P.S. I'm glad I didn't saw the review before (I only chose places > 4.5 and that one really changed my perception! xD)

    We had a lovely lunch here today 3/11/21 salads, desserts and coffees, definitely recommended. Perfect view of the beach and the town. The restaurant has a relaxed ‘surfer-style’ feel. Great service and nice food, with some different options. 👍👍👍

    Linda Beach Bar holds a special place in my heart. We were in Lagos for 9 days and returned numerous times for lunch after a relaxing morning on the beach. Such lovely food, and such incredibly welcoming, friendly and efficient staff who look after customers impeccably in a busy environment for both food and drinks! Bravo to a great team. The views are gorgeous, and the food is incredibly fresh and delicious. Make sure to try the fish dishes - I particularly recommend the prawn and mango salad, the sea bass, the seabream, and caprese salad. Thank you all for such a lovely time and look forward to returning again in the future.

    Lovely place overlooking the beach and sea...a little pricey but the food is really good. Best tuna steak I've ever had! Staff are friendly too which is a bonus. Would definitely return!

    Superb beach bar - chilled vibe, great location on Lagos' best beach, near toilets, next to cashpoint. Great frozen cocktails, selection of beers on tap, and tapas menu, with sarnies and burgers for the less adventurous. Hope to return one day!

    Best beach bar. Top cocktails, daiquiri jars to start and mud slide as a desert. Environment? What can I say " you always leave In a better mood."

    WARNING BAME people beware: Terrible, RACIST experience trying to get a drink here. The bar man completely ignored me and my friend while we waited for 10 minutes. Trying his best to appear busy while doing nothing. Obviously didn't want to serve black people. Response to manager: No, I'm SURE it's your place. We tried to get served at the other restaurant bar and the server was very rude and he merely pointed to the small side bar. So something is very wrong with your customer service to black people. No bother I'd rather not spend my money in a RACIST establishment. Yeah I saw your waitress. So what you employed a black woman?! Is she the owner of the restaurant? Are you paying her well? Giving her opportunities to progress and treating her with respect? From your extremely ignorant response I highly doubt it. You're only making Portugal & yourselves look racist.

    Lovely place with a lovely saff! I had their ‘catch of the day’. Their drinks were good and refreshing as well.

    Absolute wonderful little bar and restaurant. Fabulous views and literally on the beach allowing kids to play safely in between courses. Our waiter Max was absolutely brilliant and incredibly accommodating making dishes that weren’t even on the menu for the children. A really fab place that we highly recommend for food and some fantastic holiday drinks plus wonderful service.

    A lovely looking place, fantastic views, great place to watch the kids. Staff and drinks were fantastic. Nearly booked for food and then visited the bathrooms and it put me off booking. We drank up, left and went for food elseware. The smell and facilities for a place that served food was definitely off putting and its such a shame.

    This is a relaxed, aussie style beach bar that's well located on the beach. Nice friendly atmosphere and helpful staff. I thought the pricing was reasonable and they had a good menu catering to international guests. The food wasn't particularly good. I ordered a steak sandwich - which if done right should be a delicious treat. What I got was minute steak with no flavour whatsoever. It was overdone and cold, served on two slices of the cheapest supermarket bread. No butter, sauce, lettuce or tomato. Just poor quality meat on poor quality bread. I ordered egg as a supplement which came on one side but not the other. My son's pizza was burnt all around the edges and my wife's octopus was just about OK. All in all, a good place for drinks and a break from the beach. I'm sure some of their food is fine, but wouldn't really be tempted to try it

    Beautiful location! Had a couple of jugs of the rosé Sangria which we took to the beach. We didn't eat there but the meals looked great. Service was polite but they were crazy busy so on the slower side. Would definitely be back!

    2 nice employees but the young man was really unpleasant. We sat for 20 minutes we had to call him to place an order he didn't bring the food menu he looked like he didn't want to be bothered no smile no hello no thank you. When we said we want to pay cash he left the bill hoping that will deserve the change I had to go to the counter to make the payment with the nice and smile lady. Its nice spot but some waiter should learn how to treat customer like him.

    Total hidden gem. We had low expectations given the unassuming beach bar, but the quality of the food and the friendliness of the staff blew us away. Best Oysters I have ever had.

  • 5/5 Julia P. 9 months ago on Google
    Always an amazing time there, the best oysters I’ve ever had, such good sangrias, all of their food is top tier as well. Perfect location right on Meia Praia, we always tend to stop at Linda’s before of after a beach day. The service is always great as well!! Highly recommend!! 😍

    Rustical Beach Bar. The Burger was good, but very tiny patty and nothing special. The French fries also were nothing special and such a small portion. Cocktail was good. The price is too high for the food you get. I left hungry unfortunately. Why don‘t you make the portion of French fries bigger? French fries cost almost nothing in production and make customers happy. The staff was friendly and there is a nice view to the sea. There are worse restaurants in Lagos definitely but nevertheless I won‘t come back for food - maybe I come for a drink.

    Good spot on the beach, one of the staff was chill, the other one seemed to be having a bad day. Only stayed for one drink as couldn't deal with the staff vibes. Be happy it's hot and sunny!

    Fun beach bar. Had a DJ when we were there and had a great view of the sunset. Great place to stop in for a drink!

  • 3/5 Stuart G. 7 months ago on Google
    A few years ago this beach bar restaurant would have received 5 stars across the board. Menu choices have reduced as has the quality of the food and it's not good value for money. It used be be vibrant, busy with a great vibe and atmosphere but seems to have lost it's way a little. Still worth a visit needs to return to it's former self.
