The best quality seafood on the island, cooked to perfection by great staff in a restaurant that makes you feel special from the moment you walk in. Has that old school charm and ambience that other restaurants would kill for, great location to watch the sun go down. Ohh and try the Dragonfish!

Vila do Peixe

As usual, our favourite restaurant on Madeira, never wavers in its high standard of beef and good service. The meal we miss the most when we get back home is fillet steak cooked on a stone which you cook yourself to your liking.

Our second visit to this restaurant this holiday. My wife and I enjoyed our first visit so much we both chose the same meal again. Steak on a stone for me and espada with prawns for my better half. Delicious food, lovely staff, what more is there to say.

We had a great experience at this restaurant. We sat out on the lovely veranda with a spectacular view and the food was amazing. It was a little tricky getting up to the restaurant walking from the waterfront. We had to go up through a parking garage above the supermarket. So glad we found it because the meal was a highlight of our trip.

This is a great restaurant. From the ambience to the food and service we were both very happy with our evening.  The grilled fish was perfectly done, the roasted potatoes were perfect and the salad was tasty and well dressed.  Picking your fish and knowing that it was gutted and grilled right before your eyes assures me the restaurant is good.

I&rsquo;d read a some mixed reviews on Trip Advisor before booking but thought the Michelin guide rarely puts a foot wrong and I was right. The service was excellent and staff very attentive. They were very knowledgable about the local fish, all caught fresh that day, even informing us why we couldn&rsquo;t have the limpets at this time of year as limpet season begins in April for fresh limpets. We had the Octopus to start which was delicious and Requeme (Offshore Rockfish) for our main which I&rsquo;d never had before and it was grilled over fire to perfection. The wine pairing was perfect based on our waiters recommendation and the location, looking out over the harbour as the sun set was stunning. They were very also very accommodating to our 1 year old, joking with and  entertaining her which we loved. Would highly recommend!

I was impressed as due to my food intolerances,  the chef brought me a taster of fish soup. Unfortunately, as it has chilli, I had to select something else. My husband enjoyed his . We moved outside for coffee and relaxed in the shade with a breeze. We will return one day.
