O Alcaide - Lagos

This is a “Do Not Miss!” Spot! Owner/Chef backed up by Number 1 wife/Chef…this restaurant epitomizes this couple. The restaurant is spotless! The bar, well stocked and the wine selections of local vintages is exceptional! Broad menu with seafood, meats and prices that are in isolation from recent hikes…! Great value. Food quality is exceptional. Fresh, carefully selected and presented! Fish is fresh and well Prepared in a traditional Portuguese style! Meats are top shelf. Beef carefully aged yet fresh. The restaurant is out of the way. The neighborhood is safe. Take the hike up the hill. You won’t be disappointed and may find it is your best meal in Portugal!!!

We've just had one of the most formidable experiences of our lives. The people who entered the restaurant right after us, didn't. For great Portuguese food you must respect the owner and the time it takes to prepare great food. The food was superb, fresh and full of flavor. Service was friendly and the house white wine was decent. They serve dessert wine and some fig bites at the end (on the house). Simply outstanding. I'll remember this meal forever.

Massa era muito sem graça. Não há serviço de take away. Eles nem sequer davam uma caixa ou saco para as nossas sobras.

We come here already 7 years, everytime we are in Lagos. We always eat the chateauxbriand here. Always perfect. fresh made mushroom sauce with the meat. Very good wines as well. This might be our favorite restaurant in Lagos.

Amazing eating, very good service totally recommend
