I was recommended this restaurant and was disappointed, I had a steak which perhaps was a bad choice. It was swimming in overpowering sauce and came just with chips. It certainly wasn't worth the price. The service was okay, staff were much more concerned with larger group of people buying expensive wine etc. All in all experience did not match price unfortunately,

The consierge of our hotel suggested us this restaurant, it wasn't in our list. We went there and the first impression was not good. They didn't have our reservation even if I was with the consierge when he called the restaurant. By the way it was quite early so they foud a table for two. The restaurant is directly on the beach and the view is amazing. We choose two prawn salads and two grilled squids. It is unacceptable to me spending 50€ each for a salad and a grilled squid. I like to go out for dinner and I used to spend even more, and I'm happy do it when I can recognize the ability of the chef or the value of the raw material. For a grilled squid and a prawn salad this is defenetely too much.

I've reviewed this before... and it is still the best in the place, which does have many good restuarants. Not necessarily the cheapest but the greatest location. The fish was brilliant as ever and Joao, Jamie and the rest do a great job.

You can only approach via the beach or down 90 odd steps which perhaps explains why it is to some extent less well-known than other Olhos restaurants.

This year it was as busy as ever... locals, visitors, and many regulars. One not to miss.

This was very busy and we had our first meal of the holiday here. We had tuna steak and swordfish and both were delicious.

Came here years ago & returned as the memories were so good. Location still great. Service still great. Food still great. But why did they have to rip us off with the bill? 55 Euros for one sea bass between two?? The most we paid anywhere else was 17Euros per person. The to tal bill was 100Euros & we didn't have much. Ruined our night. There really was no need for it. Will not return
