Delicious chicken piri-piri, and stunning meat kebabs. It felt as if you were eating in someone's dining room. more

A great little restaurant in a great location. The food was delicious - I had the monkfish kebab and thoroughly enjoyed it. We went on a Tuesday night, and there was only two other couples in there. I hope this place gets busier, because it deserves to be. more

We ate here twice and everybody was really friendly. We are like most people who like to try different places, but after trying a few other resturants I wish we had used it more. Given the choice I would have eaten here 4 out of the 7 nights. It is not the cheapest, but you wouldn't call it expensive either.... more

I ordered a medium steak. The waitress suggested I order it medium rare so that if it needed a little more cooking, then the chef would do just that. The steak arrived very rare and so I asked her to cook it a little more. All of my companions has finished their meals by the time it came back and... more

I have been to the Algarve four times and the nicest place i have visited is O Tunel. Not only is the food exceptional but the hospitality is also second to none. Personally i disagree with the people who come on trip advisor and suggest English restaurants. What is the point in coming to Portugal if your going to sit... more

We tried this restaurant after reading other recommendations on this site and weren't dissapointed. Three of us chose Portuguese dishes and all three were cooked to perfection. I had Algarve cataplanas and the seafood in it was superb, my daughter had a huge peice of fresh salmon and polished it all off and my husband ordered kebab, again very tasty.... more

Great little modest restaurant, traditional and a bit crooked from the exterior, but lovely inside. Really friendly staff, they even (jokingly) offered my little sister a job folding napkins, until she smashed a glass on the floor xD but even this was cleared up quickly and efficiently with great professionalism and politeness :) Good food, good atmosphere (if a little... more

We just returned from spending 5 really nice days in the Algarve. On two nights we had the pleasure of dining at O Tunel. The establishment is located just outside the tunnel leading to Albufeira's main beach (hence the name), up the staircase to your left. While it is a fairly plain looking, modestest establishment, there is nothing plain or... more
