Best places: Portuguese restaurants in Ribeira Brava, Portugal

👍👍 Amazing food, very attentive service and a charming chef. Make sure to leave some room for the mind-blowing desert (which is hard, given the high quality and massive portion size of the main dishes) Best restaurant we have been to all week.

👍👍 Absolutely fantastic visit. Most other customers were regulars, and I can understand why. We had calamari in garlic and olive oil for starters, and seafood casserole and scabbard fish with banana for the main. If we knew how big the mains were, we would have probably skipped the starters altogether...

👍👍 Very nice, cozy place with extremely kind staff (older ladies as if they were our mamas serving their own home-made meals :-)). Complimentary starters and recommendations of the day. The codfish, home specialty, was delicious, as was also the tuna steak and the grilled octopus. Nice place, tourists...

👍👍 The best steak on a stone on Madeira. Trust me I've tried at least 10 different places. This is some of the most tender steak on a stones you can find. The staff is super friendly and attentive. There is only inside seating.

😐 We were so impressed by our first visit that we decided to come back on our final night. Unfortunately, the second time around, the service was… to be improved. Good to know: 1. Both times we went, there were plenty of tables available. Maybe we were lucky but I’m pretty sure you don’t need a res...

👍👍 This place was so good I came back again on the same holiday. Right next to the cable car station in Monte, I expected it would be a tourist trap but I was completely wrong! The prices were so reasonable, and the food was exquisite and had big portion sizes. All of the staff I met were really lovely...

👍👍 Definitely value for money! We ordered five dishes, all in top quality and presentation. Five dishes, with two portion of garlic bread, two coke zero and one large bottle of still water cost €96. Highly recommend this place! Must try their garlic bread.

👍👍 Defintely a must in Curral das Freiras! The Food looked awesome and the taste was a dream. I took the grilled Salmon, it was cooked to the point and so delicious the cook definitely knows how to put food in scene! And the View from the terrace is so nice, together with the food its an unbelievely ex...

👍👍 We had an amazing dining experience at MadMarket Restaurant in Funchal! We discovered this place on Google Maps, and when we arrived, we were impressed by the ambiance, decor, and the friendly staff. The star of the show was the food – we ordered 'Moqueca de Tofu' and 'Caril de Grão' and they were...

😐 The bread to start was delicious and the peppermint panacotta was interesting. A beautiful dessert of chocolate mousse covered in candy floss was delicious. The score of 3 is reflective of the main course of pig cheek and cost of EUR25 which we both had.  It looks pretty but the cheek was quite dry...

👍👍 Tasty food, friendly staff! Definitely recommend this place😍

👍👍 What a great evening's food and entertainment. Some of our group had the famous espetada meat skewers and others a choice of steak, chicken or fish on hot rocks, where you effectively cook your own food, with sides of potato and veg or salad. Great fun and delicious. I would certainly recommend this...

👍👍 What a pitty that we discovered this Restaurant only at our last evening. Would have tried more rhan 1 Times. I choosed the tourist menu,starten with Avocado,followed by swordfish with vegetables and endet with Tiramisu dor 20,50€. But there are a lot more dishes on the menue. Suggestion pls make a...

👍👍 Amazing coffee place and restaurant with good prices. Strongly recommend. It was our number one go to place in Machico. We visited 5 times in 5 days. Great fish, great cakes, great coffee, homemade poncha, lovely people.

😐 The food was great, customer service so-so. The menu is extremely simplistic, I just chose 'chicken' (literally what it says on the menu without clarifying how is it prepared) and let them surprise me with whatever chicken they want. It ended up being good though.

👍👍 A cute little place run by an old couple, wife in the kitchen and husband greeting customers. Very warm and homey feeling, the stews we had are all family recipes. Strongly recommend the chicken stew, very tender and we asked for more sauce because it was so good on rice or dipping bread. The wheat...

👍👍 Absolutely amazing restaurant and staff, the best meal I've ever had!! We did the £85 meal option (there are other cheaper options but as it was a special occasion we went for this package). It was worth every penny! We were picked up from our villa in a beautiful 1920s car, we were taken the scenic...
