Fábio OliveiraJuly 16, 2014The tuna was great and so was the cod. In the desert department, the passion-fruit was the best one until the date and the chocolate cake is a must!
MarkAugust 12, 2018Nice little place with outdoor seating in a tiny road. The Menu is not your average menu, though there is lots of variety. Highly recommended.
Ivan SivkovDecember 29, 2016Great interior design, excellent service, professional staff. Food is of high quality, wine selection is also very good. No remarks.
Madame DDecember 26, 2021Perfect for snacking. Dinner, well depends. Starters are good! And they have vegan options too.
Miška NagyidaiováAugust 30, 2017Nice atmosphere of a little street. Expected more of the cheese board but the rest was good - some veggie options but not too many. Their rockfish with olive crust was delicious.
Adam CreissenNovember 28, 2018Lovely seating outside, we had the octopus and the scabbard. Both very tasty! Would recommend!- Elina GributeMay 22, 2018Delicious food, good service and worth the money! Definitely will come back soon!

Ingeborg Lieshout, vanNovember 15, 2017Fresh food! That's enough said since many others in Funchal cook from the freezer.
Dirk KupferApril 27, 2014Excellent staff. Very nice ambient and background music. Nice desserts too... :-)
Carlos PereiraAugust 12, 2013The tuna tasted good but was overcooked, the salmon was well done and tasty.
Oleksandra IsakiyevaAugust 18, 2018Très bon emplacement-dans une petite rue calme,derrière la cathédrale.Excellente ambiance. FNous avons surtout apprécié la sangria rouge et le poisson à la sauce au fruit de passion et au banane.

"Very good food. Try the soup of the day for instance. Good steaks and fish well baked. The steak a la chef will be cheese on. Don’t take the menu on the stone. You get the stone in front of you."
