Stunning food, great prices, view over the ocean, friendly staff. Loved the place! Lovely big dining terrace with the view. Its next to the street, but not too busy traffic, and its divided by a wall fence.

I have been at Flor do Coco several times, always for dinner. I really like this restaurant: very cosy, rustic, with that nice ambient created by low lights and candles to go with the view. Staff is polite and service is normally quick. It is a bit pricy, but the quality make up for it.This time, I came for a late lunch. The aforementioned specifications was all there, but the food, for the first time, was a disappointment.First, the size of the serving, that could have been a starter. Just a chicken thigh - without the drumstick mind you, just the upper part - stuffed with goat cheese. Starter-sized. And dry, having been too long in the pan. Served with white rice, also dry. And some sliced mangoes. I don't want to make too much of this one-off experience, but the yellow light is flashing. Especially after having recently been to other similar restaurants in the neighbourhood, all very good.

This is a perfect restaurant to grab a sandwich or a salad. Good variety and flavors, good service. Prices cheap for food quality. They also have a shop with crafts and gifts from Olinda.

A bad time to be in Olinda is on Sunday and Monday evenings, when almost all restaurants are closed. An exception is the 'Olinda Art&Grill', which is open on Monday evenings and on Sundays has a closing hour between 7.30-8pm. So on both these evenings I went there for dinner (almost had to).Close to the central Praça da Sé with the tapioca food stalls, this restaurant, decorated on all the walls with paintings of different quality and various artsy items, has outdoor and indoor seating with great views over old Olinda and all the way out to the skyscrapers of Recife.Around lunch time this restaurant is packed with day trippers, in the evenings though usually quite empty. I came here twice. On a Sunday evening they started to clean up the place, before I had finished my dinner. Twice I had a caiprinha here before dinner. Once it was the strongest I ever got in Brazil, the next day it was like a very watery long drink.They have separate Portuguese and English menu cards, both leatherbound. My dinner selection had been once a 'Casquinha de Caranguejo' (stuffed crab shell) and 'Agulha Branca Frita' (fried white needlefish) together with 'Salada Verde pequeña' (a small green salad). The other evening I had again a salad plus 'Camarão ao alho e óleo'. It was all quite good.There are small bottles (375ml) of white and red wine avaliable (from Chile). Once I tried a local dessert, not on the menu card, but recommended to me by the waiter, a 'Cocada de Forno' (a coconut sweet from the oven) served with ice cream and lime wedges. It was okay, but I could hardly taste the coconut.Service is professional, but on the second visit there was a friendlier waiter. It is possible to pay with credit card.

Went there for dinner. We arrived early (around 8h pm) in order to have a table on the terrace. Great views form there, very romantic candlelight dinner : small advice...: do not forget to have a lamp - maybe on your phone - to be able to read the menu ;-) You will be hosted in the middle of a luxurious garden. It is really a little gem ! Note that finding the place is not that easy but your travel continue when you arrive at the entrance as you'll have to take a small funicular. It makes the journey fantastic which will be confirmed by the plates, nice, hearty, tasty. Price are regular for a good restaurant in Olinda. Really worth it !...And do not forget your mosquito repellent...

Note: this place is closed during Carnival, it reopens on Mardi Gras - Fat TuesdayWe decided to test the place based on the reviews it got, and they are well deserved.We had a very enjoyable lunch. The restaurant has a nice atmosphere and the service is excellent. You don't imagine what the place looks like from the street, so don't hesitate to enter.They have a terrasse overlooking toward Recife, but way too hot to have lunch outside during the summer. Highly recommended for dinner. You can make inquiries and booking via their website. They answer quickly.Caipirinhas were very good, and the food truly excellent. We had the lobster (highly recommended). Sweets were good too.It is a bit pricy, but it is better to pay more and have a good experience.thank you, so much. ;)

"Oficina do Sabor" is probably one of the best restaurants in the State of Pernambuco in Brazil! Talented Chef César Santos brought all his expertise to his lovely restaurant on the upper part of Olinda. Besides its delicious creations, "Oficina do Sabor" offers awesome views of Olinda and its historical buildings. Here, traditional dishes are on the menu, sided by modern celebrations of contemporary cuisine. Try Chef César Santos' famous "Camarão Prateado" - shrimps in a mango and ginger sauce! Unforgettable! A typical décor, friendly service, extra cold beer and reasonable prices complete the scene. Bon Appétit!

Came for a Sunday lunch with my son. Nice place, bang on the sea front. Lovely view. Only local Brazilian people. Ordered Argentina Steak. Good. But too much fat on it. 35% was wasted. Internet dies not work. Prices could be lower by 25%Its a casual eating place. Top 10 in Olinda. Not 3rd best for sure. Bhagwan. Muito obrigado pela sua visita, foi muito bom receber você.

I have eaten twice at the restaurant, in small and a larger group. Both times the food was excellent, and the service very friendly. Seafood is their specialty. The fishcakes were very delicious. The atmosphere is casual and friendly. Service was excellent and not pretentious. Definitely a great place to spend an afternoon over lunch. Highly recommend!Muito obrigado. ...Boas férias
