“Restaurant with excellent value for money. The skewer meat was meltingly tender. A great regional dining experience.”
Nuno L (Tripadvisor)
“As the son of Madeiran parents and a frequent visitor to Madeira, I know good food when I taste it. This place is incredible. The food takes me back to my childhood in the Madeiran mountains during winter, eating skewers with my whole family.”

“If I could give this place more stars, I would give them all. It’s a true gem!
I can honestly say it’s one of the best barbecues we’ve ever had in our lives. The meat was so fresh it melted in the mouth, perfectly cooked and seasoned. It has truly raised the bar for us!
Even the sides we had, roasted potatoes and salad, were excellent and very flavorful.
Thank you for the wonderful experience we had!”
