Gaviota

This is a front line restaurant close to our Villa do Mar property and one that we really enjoying going to. To describe it as simple coastal Portuguese fare would do it an injustice. The menu is simple in that there isn’t a huge number of dishes on offer. But what they have is always cooked to perfection.

Gaviota specialises in seafood dishes and it is always well worth asking what they have and to have a look before choosing. Wendy loves the Ameijois and I often choose the Tuna. The latter always seems cooked to my liking, not overdone but nice and tender.

The house wines are very pleasant but please ask what other wines they have on offer. The sobremesas (sweets) are traditional Algarvian or Portuguese.

Vincent Restaurant

Tel : 281381732 / 965375775

So you come to the Algarve and the small fishing village of Santa Luzia and expect the best Portuguese seafood restaurants. And this is what you get. What might be a surprise for some is that there is also an excellent French establishment hiding away that lives up to all the expectations one has of French Cuisine.

It is called Vincents. Mainly because that is the owners name. You don’t see much of Vincent as he is the excellent chef providing you with your fine cuisine.

A broad range of dishes are on offer , seafood, meat and Vegetarian. None have disappointed us to date. An excellent wine selection too and then onto deserts!!
