Magma Restaurant Bar

Reviewed By hfritzinger

My husband and I were staying in town and since Magma was <5-minute drive from our house, we decided to stop in for dinner on a Sunday evening. Although we did not have reservations, we were easily seated around 7:30pm. We found all of the food to be delicious! We shared a carafe of red sangria and an appetizer of local sausages. We also received a basket of all types of local bread and for our mains my husband had the steak and I had the tuna. As we were eating dinner, we had a superb view of the sunset over the coast. Note there is a small market in the front of the restaurant if you needed water, milk, juice, bread, etc. in a pinch. Parking can be a bit difficult at the restaurant in situated on a very steep road and there is no separate parking lot, you just park along the road where you can find a spot. The meal is definitely worth it though!

Most of the items are grown locally or caught fresh from the sea.. it is seasonal and open from 12pm til 10pm daily June -August. It is a cozy place adjacent to a park with incredible ocean below.. Prices are reasonable for the amazing food and conversation.

Friendly staff. Great wine. Simple fare but cooked well. Quirky outside seats chained together (just for a coffee, no table) but in the sun. A local experience

Restaurante O Lavrador Lda

Reviewed By Piomak64

The restaurant is located on a hill overlooking the bay of Lajes with great view over the village, sea and surroundings. It specializes in catering bigger groups, with open buffet, but can also serve individual customers. It has been recently expanded and modernized, with some small local farming museum and wine shop added.Good local cheeses for starters, soups and local daily fishes are offered. Meats are very simple, can be skipped. All in all, simple, authentic local food.

Restaurante Lagoa

Reviewed By Cytraveler26

Ate here twice for dinner. The food was better than expected based on other reviews. My wife had swordfish which was a very generous portion and well prepared I had pork which was very moist and nicely seasoned and tasty. And the portions were far more than I expected for the price. The second night we each got omelettes which were also good. The fries are also nicely prepared.

Bistrot Whale'come

Reviewed By hfritzinger

After a whale watching trip in the area, we ate lunch at this bistro and it was delicious! My husband and I sat outside and both had cappuccinos as well as a fish cassoulet. The service was very quick and friendly and was exactly what we needed before continuing on the rest of our day! Note this bistro does accept credit cards.

Fonte Cuisine

Reviewed By lindalu5886

The restaurant is nice with a beautiful terrace. Menu gives enough choice, food quality was good (not outstanding but good), prices are ok. The services is terrible though! They ignored me completely at the beginning, then I had to wait 40 mins for my starter (a small salad), I had no napkin on my table, I did not get ketchup and mayonnaise straight away even though I asked for it. Bill took a long time as well and I was in a rush (which I told them at the beginning). So I would only recommend this place if you have a lot of time and patience and are not very hungry as you will have to wait a long time!Hello BluecyI will be reporting your comments back to the staff and management as feedback. Please understand the restaurant is very busy in the summer and it is hard to accomodate everyone´s need in the restaurant.best regards
