It is rare to find a restaurant where both of us wants to come back instead of trying something new when we are on vacation. Their specials are outstanding, unique and high quality. The service is excellent and even though we have been here multiple times, we are likely to return.

14 nights stopping close by. Loads of eating places within a 10 minute walk.First visit here impressed us so much that two further visits were made.The menu offers various dishes. On one of our visits I decided to try Steak on the Stone and opted for the large one. Believe me that it was a sight to behold. The meat was without doubt one of the best steaks Iâve ever had.Donât be put off by the initial appearance, itâs a hidden gem.Excellent value for money.

We had heard about Lillyâs from a previous trip but had been unable to fit it into our itinerary! Big mistake!!!The restaurant is extremely relaxing very flexible and the food is outstanding! Do try the pre meal madeira wine - dry - it is a delight. We had the calamari, octopus for starters and the filet with mushrooms and RV for mains. Each were superb and the Alvarihno wine with it made our day! Thank you veru much for the comment, we are really pleased for your presence, customers are the reason for our door to be open, see you again, Thank you from all Lily´s team

Quirky little place with interesting decor that is basically down a back alley!We were advised to order off the sharing menu, which was effectively one main and one side per person.We got some delicious garlic bread to start and ordered shrimp with lemon and garlic, chicken with soy sauce and ginger, sweet potato micas (mashed sweet potato with shredded cabbage and chorizo) and a mixed salad.The food was tasty and full of flavour, although what we ordered didnât quite compliment each other as a meal.For deserts, we ordered a lime semi frio and a chocolate semi frio, which was both very nice. The lime had a nice citrus kick to it.The staff were very friendly and our waitress spoke very good English, although the place was deserted while we were there!

It really is! We have been coming to Madeira for 20 years and have dined at âCome Together â since it opened and Mary and Eduardoâs previous restaurant always a very warm welcome and the food never disappoints. Fish with banana, salmo-on-the-stone and many other dishes that never fail to delight. With music on Saturday and Sunday evenings is just like a family party. Couldnât recommend more highly and canât wait to return Tony and Valerie Green, Wiltshire

This is certainly one of our favourite restaurant and it always feels like such a special occasion as it is such a treat! The food is delicious and you can budget for a meal here as there is a fixed price BUT the wine is included in the price, either red and or white wine with sparkling wine for an aperitif! So it is a good idea to accept the offer of transport to and from your hotel! There are some extra touches that also adds to the occasion not to mention the excellent service provided by the staff! Not to mention that it is located on the promenade so you have a good view of the sea and the sun setting if you gave an early booking. I would definitely recommend this restaurant!Dear TripAdvisor member,Thank you very much indeed for your wonderful review. Reading your thoughts on your recent visit to Cris´s Restaurant, has made us very proud and thank you so much for sharing these with us and TripAdvisor.Thank you so much for your recommendation and thank you for all your support, we look forward very much to welcoming you back soon.Best regards,The Cris´s Restaurant

I dined with two other family members in September, and we enjoyed this restaurant very much. We all had seafood dishes which were fresh and wonderful. Mine was three pieces of seafood served over a butter-rich black (squid ink?) pasta and it was amazing! Anyone visiting this island should try this restaurant.

Absolutely brilliant place. We just wandered past it a couple of days ago and thought it looked nice so booked in . We were disappointed it was amazing. Staff were really knowledgeable. Particularly liked the black scabbard fish and banana with a difference. Went into trip advisor and was pleasantly surprised that it is number1 restaurant in Funchal !
