The absolute fave was the pica-pau beef and Portuguese steak. Our server also made wine recommendation for a bottle of Chardonnay that paired well with the Prawn risotto.

I enjoyed their tuna entree and was quite full leaving there. Tuna was seared perfectly with a sprinkle of a delicious mix of seasoning. This was accompanied by wilted spinach and super creamy mashed squash. I can't wait to go back for a few tapa very soon!

This is a great choice for a meal in Carvoeiro; amazing view, good food, good service…read more Tia Ilda is just up the hill overlooking the beach, and if you are seated towards the front of the restaurant (either inside or upstairs on the balcony), you'll get a fantastic view. We were in pretty early (by Portuguese standards at least) for lunch during the off-season, so we had no issues getting a table for six upstairs with a view. During the busy season I would expect this place to fill up quickly though. Service was friendly, and as usual the servers spoke both Portuguese and English (and probably a smattering of French and German if I had to guess). The menu also comes printed in all four languages, which makes life easier. The food was generally very good; the artichoke tapas was basic (cool artichoke in olive oil and garlic), as was the octopus (grilled and chopped). The chicken piri-piri was excellent; cooked well so that the skin was crispy but the meat was still moist, and with just the right amount of heat in the butter sauce dabbed over it. Overall a good meal in a great location, we would certainly return.

Great views. Tasty food. Friendly staff. A bit pricy but appropriate for a nice out. Had the…read moregarlic prawn appy 20€ and the Dracula kebab 20€. Tasted 5 other dishes and found all very tasty. The restaurant provides sardines, olives and a few other antipasti to start that I could have done without for more reasonable prices. Desserts looked delicious but didn't have the room. Next time.

They have two seating areas, the bottom floor with the nice arch that you see in many photos, and the top floor, which has a view and some steep stairs! Overall, it was a great experience, and the servers are more attentive here than other places in Albufeira. The Piri Piri chicken was nicely seasoned, and same will go for my girlfriend fried cod.

There is a difference between if you need us and we are there and we never sho up to ask if you want more wine, coffee or desert. Yes we did, no one ever came nor could we make eye contact. 45 minutes from the end of food/wine until we left and 40 feet from the restaurant they brought the bill. Too bad for the kitchen that the front of the house is asleep. Maybe end of the season burnout? Not in the other five restaurants we are at. Good service, when you were done with dinner, would you like coffee or desert? Not here at our table.

Fish portions were generous but they were saturated in grease and felt very oily. Chips were fine but nothing to rave about, bit bland. Ambiance felt cheaply manufactured, all the framed decor looked like stock photography of random fisherman in costume pulled off the internet. The central lighting fixture was pretty awesome but that's about it. Our table had a straight shot view of the literal toilet, not just the restroom. I mean, we got the dishes we ordered but overall, huge disappointment, especially with the positive reviews on various sites.
