We enjoyed dinner here. We order the special appetizer, which was shredded beef (stew like), this was one of the best beef dishes I have eaten. The fried squid was good, the squash salad with goat cheese was a work of art, so delicate, so enjoyable. The chicken curry with rice, catch of the day and the pork belly were great dishes as well. Prices match the quality of the food. The bar tender was very friendly, he made good drinks and was attentive with us.

I had the lunch menu. It had some very good butter, bread and oliven. I then had my first stuffed squid/octopus (can't remember). The wine was good and suitable for the food. And the desert was also very good. The service was pretty good, and they made a mistake, which got me a free mocktail.

Among my most favourite restaurants in Lagos! We accidentally found it and made sure to book a table for dinner. The restaurant is more on the expensive side, but for a good reason. The top quality food with a nice twist and bouquet of flavours! Excellent team work, attentive staff and delightful atmosphere. I had a catch of the day, a mouthwatering sea-bream with vegetables and my partner had seafood linguini. Absolutely delicious!

Tapas come in so many shapes sizes and styles it’s hard to differentiate one restaurant from the next. Do yourself a favor and walk a bit off the main tourist drag to Tasca Jota. Elevating tapas to next level, the food is plated professionally, the quality is well above your average tapa and service is friendly and fast. Having a hard time choosing, we went with four tapas and a main. I should point out that only a few times out of 17 nights in Portugal were the mains as good or better than the tapas or charcuterie plates. This was an exception. We started out with a house pate which was tuna. Small but excellent. The first tapa we had was crunchy squid sticks with harissa mayo. Better than most calamari in North America the portion is big and the squid is excellent. Harissa is flavorful and there’s plenty of it for dipping. Next we had burratta over truffled black olives, tomatoes and grapes. Looking like a Michelin star dish, the sweetness of the cheese matches all the delicious goat and sheep cheese we’ve enjoyed in Portugal. Excellent choice. The menu lists the salad as butternut squash with cottage cheese, pesto, seeds and almonds but they called it pumpkin. Either way, it would be $25 or more back home but here it’s less than ten euro and worth it. One of the best salads we’ve had anywhere actually. We asked if we should choose chicken wings or shrimp and they suggested the prawns in sautéed in ginger, chili peppers and garlic. We’ve had shrimp about ten times in Portugal. Many times it’s over cooked and not flavorful. Not this time. A large portion of 8 or 9 deliciously perfect shrimp is easily shareable. Finally, we chose penne with spiced chorizo from Monchique. Not having visited that area, I wanted to have one last chorizo before going back to the spicy Mexican version we get at home. The pasta was perfectly al dente, the chorizo was amazing, portion size is bigger than the tapas, sauce is flavorful. We had no room for dessert and actually, you’d be full with three tapas and a main or four tapas and no main Asking if the chef has experience in Spain, they told us they’re from all over including Argentina, Spain and other parts of Europe. Whoever they are, this was our best meal in the Algarve. Prices are a bit higher than most tapas but the elevation of the food makes it well worth it. Five stars all around and nothing negative whatsoever to critique. We only had two experiences where mains and tapas were both five star. (The other one was Aneto & Table in Paso De Regua). Hats off to the owners. Service Dine in Meal type Dinner Price per person €40–45 Recommended dishes Tiras de Lula Crocante Com Maionese de Harissa

Nice atmosphere and service, food presentation also good, however quality to my taste is so so. Cod with Kale was as too me, too dry, chewy with fish taste over powering everything else. My wife had pork belly, and we expected something melting in the mouth, but instead, it was also quite chewy, salty without much of the pork belly taste. Since many people find this food delicious (based on previous reviews), and maybe it is traditionally how it is supposed to be cooked, this is our personal a d unbiased opinion.

Had a gorgeous dinner at this restaurant. Service impeccable, food utterly delicious. The presentation of the food and taste was top notch. Slightly off the beaten track, but food experience made it well worth it. As a coeliac, I found them great. First time on my trip where someone has said, no it’s not gluten free but let me see if they can make it gluten free for you. Which they did!

We had a fantastic dinner here! I made the reservation from Sintra, so I had no idea where the restaurant was located. We walked from our hotel and the area that the restaurant is located in is not the most picturesque area of Logos so we almost passed it by, but I’m very glad we didn’t! The food is fabulous. We started out with the pate and bread. The bread is a rye based sour dough and the pate is delicious and not overly livery tasting. We also had the beef carpaccio for a starter (don’t judge us!) which was delicious. For the entree I had the fish of the day (durada), amazing! My wife had the pork belly. Best pork belly I have ever tasted… I’m usually not a fan bc it’s usually mostly fat. This had lots of meat and a crispy skin served on a sweet potato purée. The wine we had was perfect with both meals (see pics). Raphael was our server and he did an excellent job. I would highly recommend eating here! Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

Absolutely wonderful food, service, and relaxed atmosphere. Portuguese style, made using new methods/techniques. Visited for my wife's birthday based on a local recommendation. The food was incrediblely well presented, and packed full of flavour. We had a tapas each and a main, followed by a digestif, all delicious! The crab truffles with romanesco sauce in particular were mind blowing good! Highly recommended!
