We found this hidden gem while wandering the streets of Vila Real de San Antonio (in Portugal but…read moreright across the river from Spain). It is the off season and many restaurants close down for a bit so we were happy to find anything to eat on the deserted streets let alone this treat. The server was happy and friendly and the food was prompt. I gave it five stars because of the environment, service, and food. I would call it comfort food, Portuguese fish and a rounded out menu for those who need a bit of everything. Their pureed vegetable soup (all the soups I've ordered so far in Portugal have been pureed so far..Ireland and France also) hit the spot. Rich and flavorful (ok I added pepper and my extra salt) it was a great way to start the meal. The tables outside are a wonderful way to enjoy the warm weather and people watch the shoppers along the promenade. When it's cooler out or you want the cozy feeling then go inside. There is a wall water feature in one corner and a fireplace feature in the middle of the front room which lends so much charm to the experience. At least pop inside for a quick look before you make your decision. We were glad that it was cold outside or we never would have known that this was much more than a sidewalk cafe. I've added the menu and pricing with some interior photos. Good place, food isn't fancy but it's good and great pricing. We drank the house red wine and it was a perfect food drinking light wine. Cheers and enjoy.

The place was empty which worried me a little but was also great for our toddler bc we didn't have to worry about other people and interrupting their meal. All of which wouldn't have mattered bc the waitress and the people were phenomenal. Okay food now.... the octopus and shrimp which my husband and I almost always order were literally the best we've ever had. So good after we had our mains we ordered one of each again. THE BEST, I had the catch of the day and wasn't a fan. My husband had the pork shank and was like butter. It was out of this world good. Order that. . Go here and you won't regret it.

The food is mid. One server really did his best to recover our experience and we are thankful. Cannot recommend. Especially if you are a group of women be wary. I booked this place on June 7, 2026 for an August 15th dinner. I am the maid of honor for a bachelorette party. I landed in albuefiera on August 14th. I got a call from the restaurant. They said that for my reservation we could only sit at the terrace for 1.5 hours. We accommodated as we wanted the beautiful view for this special day. We confirmed via text as well. Upon entering the restaurant was empty. They sat us indoors, far from the ocean terrace view we reserved. I let the host now. He looked at me and ignored me. I spoke again. He walked away. I let our server know, he said that the reservation was last minute and this was the only table available - empty restaurant. I let him know I booked 2 months in advance. He said "no you didn't." I walk to his iPad and ask him if he would like to see my email receipt or texts. He says "no you didn't." Eventually he looks at the iPad and confirms I was truthful. He does not apologize or acknowledge me. He walks to our terrace table and begins arranging it. We eventually sit and the tone is set. He stands with other staff staring, laughing, pointing. He was especially looking at one woman in our party. It made us all very uncomfortable on this special night. Two members of our party kindly ask him if there is an issue or if he can stop. We get a new server, he is amazing. He was kind, tried to break the ice, and turn our experience around. We are very appreciative of this one man in this establishment. Eventually the restaurant filled up. We did our best to enjoy the food and splurged, it was mediocre at best. I'm a New Yorker (we can be tough) who has 14 years of hospitality expeiriencde and 6 years client facing corporate work. I've never felt so unwelcomed in a restaurant. So pointed out. So clearly treated differently then other guests. One member of our party was really hurt by the mean treatment by staff. She couldn't eat or enjoy, she cried, and left the bachelorette celebration. The night ruined. I cannot recommend this place, especially considering all of the positive reviews. A once in a lifetime celebration was really stained by this experience. I paid and tipped my server directly, happy to leave rather than move upstairs for cocktails and dessert. 3 of my group spoke to management. They called today, August 16,2026) to apologize. The manager asked, "What can I do to fix this I feel really bad." I suggested a comp as we do not want to go back there. He said no. The attempted apology feels really ingenious. Sorry means action, change. Leaving this here, especially if you are women be wary. This is the last I'll think of it and we move on. Take care.
