  For location alone I would give 5 stars , however restaurant over priced and don't seem to want to cater for people with food alergies , watch out for the changing prices at the beach bar which again is over priced and trying to more up market than it is ,

  Snatching defeat from the jaws of victory! Used to be excellent with great food, superb location and so incredibly chilled....but now it is a carbon copy of what you find on the strip...and it sucks!
  
  They renovated it a couple of years ago and have gone through a series of further "upgrades" which have turned this genuine favourite into somewhere you couldn't pay me to go into again. It's crass, pretentious and seems to be attempting to attract an upmarket crowd that the food, decor and service just doesn't support.
  
  Prime example, they destroyed a superb uninhibited beach view for restaurant diners by building a monstrosity of a decking bar on the sand dune to attract the popular sundowner clientele (as we were told by staff when we witnessed the early build work). So not only did the destroy a great bit of natural sand dune, obliterate a great dining view..but in attempting to build a sunset viewing deck, the brain surgeon behind the design put the bar on the sunset side of the deck so even if you gritted your teeth and went for a sunset drink...your view is the sun going over the top of a bar roof and not the ocean horizon.

  Appalling service!! Waited 45 minutes for a menu!! This is after pre booking table. Service very slow. Staff rude. Menu average and over priced!! Restaurant trying for 5 star prices at drive by menu! Toilets disgusting, faeces over ladies toilet already noted by Staff......nothing rectified!!! The other toilet over flowing and some with used paper etc....my 9 year old refused to use toliets!!! Would not go back if this was the only place in Portugal servicing food!!!

  The staff is incredibly RUDE. We left angrily after being yelled at by the manager! Don't go here.
  
  Many tables were empty and there was no sign that said we had to wait to be seated. So naturally we hesitated for a minute and then walked to the nearest empty table for two.
  
  For almost ten minutes, we were completely ignored by several waiters except by one to tell me, a tourist, in Portuguese to put on a T-shirt. To me, that is unusual for a restaurant at the beach, but of course I did what he said. He then left without taking our order...
  
  Then an elderly woman, clearly the manager, came to us and said something in Portuguese to which we responded to kindly ask if she spoke English.
  'Who gave you this table?' she said angrily.
  Ehh.. 'Well there was no-one available so we just sat,' we answered.
  Apparently that wasn't allowed 'You should wait! We have reservations,' she said pointing at empty tables without a 'booked' sign.
  My partner then looked at me and asked: 'Shall we just leave? This person is incredibly rude to us.' So we left.
  
  This woman then said 'We have rules!' like we were imbeciles, followed by'Tschüss!' like a bully making fun of his victim. We aren't even German! So rude. We abided their rules since it hadn't been communicated that their number one rule is to wear a T-shirt at an overrated beach hut and to wait for overworked staff to be seated. It's a miracle they even were so busy, since it wasn't even crowded.
  
  Anyway, she kept raising her voice and kept yelling as we walked away angrily.

  Rude, pretentious, overworked staff. This is just a beach hut ,
  There are better quality ones nearby.
  
  We walked in a half empty establishment and took a small cleared table in the middle.
  After waiting for 10 minutes (and being ignored by at least 3 waiters). An elderly woman walked up to us and started chatting in rushed and angry sounding Portuguese.
  
  I asked "excuse me?"She asked "Who gave you this seat?" "No one, half this place is empty? There was no-one available?"
  
  "We have bookings and you should have asked." She half-screamed in broken English.
  
  I told her that I don't have wish to be spoken to that way and asked my partner to go. He agreed and we left.
  
  She yelled: " We have rules! " and added mockingly: "Tschuss (I don't know how to spell this as I am not German) with a silly wave.
  
  Tip: There is only one sign needed if you wish your guests (or in your case; people who give you money) Please wait to be seated and nothing would've happened. We haven't ever had this experience in Portugal? You don't have to wait to get seated? Never, and we have eaten at better places than this pretentious beach hut.

  Really nice restaurant and a good bar!!! The food is very nice, with the added bonus of the location and the ambiance. Be careful as to what you order cocktail wise, do make sure to ask the staff how they are made, my Girlfriend ordered a starwberry daiquiris and it was quite watery due to the Ice, and the Rum and coke was a tad strong. Otherwise this is definitely a place to Visit on your Algarve Holiday 😀!!!

  This is an excellent place to eat, great food, great view (we watched the sunset from our table) and the service was second to none. The Blue Shark was absolutely fantastic. Prices are a little high but well worth it.

  This is a nice little beach side bar with friendly staff and cold beers.
  We (group of 6) stopped here for lunch after arriving at our villa close by in October 2015.
  
  The menu is fairly large and reasonably priced.
  We all had fish related dishes as the sea being so close drew us to those choices. If you are undecided try the fish in vinegar with cumin! Oh my god its so good and the portion sizes are good.
  
  By the time the bill came (2 courses each with a drink) and we were all pleasantly surprised with the costs. The only down side was the rain!
