Reserved a table in advance (Always a good approach 😊) and got our table in a large room with a good atmosphere. Waiter was prompt and respectful. We ordered two albacore beefs (they are large!) with no additions - that was not needed. They were supreme made and very tasty. We had a small desert, a starter drink and a bottle of white wine - all with a cost of €100 including tips. All in all a good experience.

Nice atmosphere and sits on the waterfront. Serves seafood, pasta, and meat dishes. Tried the limpets, which I did not enjoy at all. Overcooked…hard and rubbery. The octopus was mushy, flavourless and swimming in olive oil. My partner had the deep fried cod with spicy sauce. That was the better choice. It was cooked to perfection and delicious. Looked around us, and the calamari looked good. Heard other customers raving about the beef. All around the island you can see grazing Holstein cows. So maybe the beef here is really good?

Located across from Octant hotel, Sao Pedro has its own parking - a plus in PDL. It has a casual-romantic ambiance with a nice bar and wine library area.
Food is typical Azorean. We had grilled limpets - somewhat rough and chewy and grilled shrimp which were better. The bacalao entry was crusty on outside and soft inside - definitely one of the better bacalao dished in our experience.
Service was very professional.
