Snack Bar Restaurante Retiro Dos Cacadores

Just had dinner here.And thought it was excellent.The service was fantastic and friendly .The food was first class.It is typically Portuguese and we loved it.we will return.Thank you for a lovely meal.

This restaurant defines hidden gem. With the appearance of a snack bar this Tardis-like venue includes a big enough restaurant and a proprietor with an even bigger personality. We have eaten here many times and never been disappointed. On this occasion the fresh dourada was again grilled to perfection, scoring a rare ten out of ten, and we have eaten a lot of dourada. The house wine is serviceable and at a total bill of €27 for the two of us as good value as is imaginable. I love this place.

We are just back from 2 weeks holiday we ate here on 3 occasions can honestly say the food service was excellent, Jose was a real character made our evenings an experience I look forward to sampling their hospitality when we go back next year

My family and I have been coming to this restaurant for several years now and we can always count on a great meal that’s excellent value. It’s a family run restaurant and the food is very typical Portuguese food found in this part of the Algarve. The front of the place appears to just be a cafe/bar but go through and you will find a cozy restaurant in the back. We love the house steak, the presa (black pork loins), and the bbq chicken but I always see the locals enjoying the seafood (we aren’t big seafood lovers). My kids demand we eat here at least twice in our yearly week stay. They’d make us come every night if we let them! Although the owner doesn’t speak English, we always manage. His daughter and another young lady that works there speak good English so there’s usually help in the area if needed. I recommend this place if you’d like a nice change from the tourist restaurants you might find in the area. And save room for dessert; they are all amazing!

Fantastic food great price. Great servings and super tasty home cooked food. They were really busy on the Spanish public holiday but the owner did an extraordinary job! He’s a lovely man too, was happy to explain although he was super busy. Super happy customers.. well done!
