It’s a large restaurant with outdoor seating, which would be great in the summer. The restaurant was a quarter filled. The service was good and we were advised to order less and the pork with chips would be too much and we were very grateful as I don’t like to waste food. The pork was cooked perfectly and was moist and tasty. The fries were hand cut and tasted of quality potatoes. We managed to squeeze in some dessert which was a sugar tart. The owners gave us free liqueur too. Service Dine in Meal type Dinner Price per person €30–35 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 3

Xitaka is truly a remarkable dining experience. The outstanding service provided by Rui, who personally attended to our table, added a special touch to the evening. We indulged in a delightful array of seafood, fish, and a scrumptious burger, not to mention the exquisite desserts. Every dish was a culinary delight, and I wholeheartedly recommend this place. The personalized approach of Rui and the exceptional quality of the food make Xitaka a must-visit for any food enthusiast.

Not enough time on the island to eat here again. We went on Sunday lunch, really busy, but we got in without a reservation. Near airport. Yummy octopus! Service Dine in Meal type Lunch Price per person €10–15 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

Not only is the food fabulous but the service was even better. Our waiter was so helpful, funny and nice! I had the grilled octopus, which melts in your mouth, so delicious. My husband had one of the fishes of the day, it came with a full meal (salad, veggies, potatoes), also delicious. The white sangria was great and strong. The caramel mousse pudding for dessert was like nothing we’ve ever tasted. Definitely recommend. Service Dine in Meal type Dinner Price per person €30–35 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

Cute restaurant. Not in city center but it's a quick drive or a slightly longer walk. Amable waiters. The food was good. We tried the barnacles as I was curious about their taste. A bit pricey for the amount of a barnacle that you actually eat, but I understand that they are hard to harvest and they are not easy to find. We also tried the octopus and the Xitaca steak. The octopus was incredibly tender, it almost melt in my mouth. The accompanying sides were also good. Steak was decent. A bit sad that half of the menu was not available (most of the fish, the squid). Overall a good experience though.

Great restaurant. We didn’t have a reservation but the wait staff still made room for us. All the sea food was fresh and impeccably done. Prices were on the higher end, but generous portion sizes made it worthwhile. I’d personally suggest trying the octopus salad and seafood fettuccine. My spouse and our friends enjoyed the seafood platter and scallop curry. Location is however out of the way for anyone hoping to stick close to the city centre.

First let me say that the waitress was really kind and professional, she was running like crazy but was still very polite Worst meal I had in this island 1 - Seriously understaffed, we waited 30 minutes to place the order and more than 1h to receive the food (not exaggerating, we checked the clock). 1h and 30 minutes to receive the food is unacceptable anywhere in the world. 2 - the food was terrible, the cataplana of fish was 90% potatoes soaked in oil and sauce, the fish was terrible and tasteless, the side dish of chickpeas and vegetables was sweet as a dessert The only thing acceptable was the fresh cheese, anything produced in the kitchen was just terrible Much better options for better value Service Dine in Meal type Dinner Price per person €20–25

This has been one of our favourite restaurants so far on São Miguel. The food is amazing. The waiters, Nuno and Rui, are the best waiters I’ve ever been served by. Highly recommend. Service Dine in Meal type Dinner Price per person €15–20 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

Everything is delicious. Recommend the grilled octopus and the seafood cataplana which is for two people but certainly more for like three. Prices are as expected for a good quality meal. Been there a few times. Return customer since last trip. Service Dine in Meal type Dinner Price per person €20–25 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5 Recommended dishes 2 Person Seafood Platter

Seafood lovers rejoice! Damn fine delicious seafood! I recommend the 2 person seafood platter, razor clams, limpets, brown crab dip/pate, fish soup and octopus salad... You will not be disappointed! Excellent service as well! We came here twice in 2 weeks because we loved it so much! Very reasonably priced as well!
