Amazing view, helfpful staff, the main dish was huge! I couldn't finish it but the rabbit was very nice with a lovely sauce. Despite being full, I had to try the passion fruit mousse, I had seen it for days on various menus. Unfortunately a bit sweet for me but for 3,50€, it was big! They have a car park but you can also park downstairs in town and walk up if you're up for a very steep walk ! Rewarded by the views though ;) Service Dine in Meal type Lunch Price per person €20–25 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5
Good restaurant with nice views, parking available, open during daytime (and evenings, of course). Finding a table was never a problem. Attentive and swift service, good wine suggestions. Food is a bit uneven - some options are amazing (scabbard fish with and without banana, octopus starter, probably best garlic bread in town), some are less so (tuna steak overly salty, sides overly boiled and too excessive, felt a shame to leave so much of it). Overall a good local restaurant, well worth a stop. Service Dine in Meal type Dinner Food: 4 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 4
Excelent quality fish. We had a mix of fish and seafood and was all perfectly cooked and the mussels had a wonderful sea taste. The white wine "sangria" was very good. Also has a great view. A good place for a great meal for two (in our case).
All in all, it was a decent experience. The panoramic view is delightful, the staff could be more helpful and talkative. I enjoyed the scabbard fish and goat stew, although I have a different perspective on stew. The fresh mango juice was delicious. However, we didn't explore the dessert options as they didn't appear tempting. The prices are relatively high.

Friendly and professional staff, beautiful view, perfect place for big groups or couples. We loved the food, the fish was fresh and crisp that garlic bread was beautiful, highly recommended.

As there are not many restaurants in Calheta, this restaurant is quite a good choice here, good quality and large quantity as well, you just need to pay a little attention for the bread, it is not free so if you don’t want it you have to say no, we’ve come here twice and the second time there was garlic bread in the bill however we didn’t even order it, the waiter apologized and removed it from the bill, that was pity :(

Nicely located high above calheta beach, so the view was fantastic and the food was good too. I had the traditional Espada com banana with tasted really delicious. My wife had gamba's with garlic, the gamba's were a bit under grilled. There was a slight mishap with a table reservation so we were moved, luckily with almost the same view and a free Madeira amaretto.
